                            KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



weep the fire out�察�And some will mourn in ashes�察�some coal´black�察�For the 

deposing of a rightful king。 

       Enter NORTHUMBERLAND attended 

       NORTHUMBERLAND。                My    lord�察  �the  mind    of   Bolingbroke      is 

chang'd�察�You must to Pomfret�察�not unto the Tower。 And�察�madam�察�there is 

order ta'en for you�此�With all swift speed you must away to France。 KING 

RICHARD。         Northumberland�察      �thou   ladder   wherewithal     The    mounting 

Bolingbroke ascends my throne�察�The time shall not be many hours of age 

More   than   it   is�察  �ere   foul   sin   gathering   head   Shall   break   into   corruption。 

Thou shalt think Though he divide the realm and give thee half It is too 

little�察�helping him to all�察�And he shall think that thou�察�which knowest the 

way To plant unrightful kings�察�wilt know again�察�Being ne'er so little urg'd�察�

another way To pluck him headlong from the usurped throne。 The love of 

wicked men converts to fear�察�That fear to hate�察�and hate turns one or both 

To worthy danger and deserved death。 NORTHUMBERLAND。 My guilt 

be on my head�察�and there an end。 Take leave�察�and part�察�for you must part 

forthwith。   KING   RICHARD。   Doubly   divorc'd�   �Bad   men�察  �you   violate A 

twofold marriage´'twixt my crown and me�察�And then betwixt me and my 

married wife。 Let me unkiss the oath 'twixt thee and me�察�And yet not so�察�

for with a kiss 'twas made。 Part us�察�Northumberland�察�I towards the north�察�

Where   shivering   cold   and   sickness   pines   the   clime�察  �My   wife   to   France�察�

from whence set forth in pomp�察�She came adorned hither like sweet May�察�

Sent   back   like   Hallowmas   or   short'st   of   day。   QUEEN。 And   must   we   be 

divided�拭�Must we part�拭�KING RICHARD。 Ay�察�hand from hand�察�my love�察�

and heart from heart。 QUEEN。 Banish us both�察�and send the King with me。 

NORTHUMBERLAND。 That were some love�察�but little policy。 QUEEN。 

Then     whither   he   goes   thither  let  me  go。   KING     RICHARD。       So   two�察�

together weeping�察�make one woe。 Weep thou for me in France�察�I for thee 

here�察�Better   far off   than near�察  �be ne'er   the near。   Go�察�count thy way  with 

sighs�察�I mine with groans。 QUEEN。 So longest way shall have the longest 

moans。   KING   RICHARD。   Twice   for   one   step   I'll   groan�察  �the   way   being 

short�察�And piece the way out with a heavy heart。 Come�察�come�察�in wooing 

sorrow let's be brief�察�Since�察�wedding it�察�there is such length in grief。 One 

kiss shall stop our mouths�察�and dumbly part�察�Thus give I mine�察�and thus

                         KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



take I thy heart。 QUEEN。 Give me mine own again�察�'twere no good part To 

take on me to keep and kill thy heart。 So�察�now I have mine own again�察�be 

gone。 That I may strive to kill it with a groan。 KING RICHARD。 We make 

woe wanton with this fond delay。 Once more�察�adieu�察�the rest let sorrow say。 

Exeunt

             SCENE 2。 The DUKE OF YORK's palace 



     Enter the DUKE OF YORK and the DUCHESS 

       DUCHESS。   My   Lord�察  �you   told   me   you   would   tell   the   rest�察  �When 

weeping made   you   break the story  off�察�Of our   two cousins' coming into 

London。 YORK。 Where did I leave�拭�DUCHESS。 At that sad stop�察�my lord�察�

Where     rude   misgoverned      hands   from    windows'    tops   Threw    dust   and 

rubbish on King Richard's head。 YORK。 Then�察�as I said�察�the Duke�察�great 

Bolingbroke�察�Mounted upon a hot and fiery steed Which his aspiring rider 

seem'd to know�察�With slow but stately pace kept on his course�察�Whilst all 

tongues cried 'God save thee�察�Bolingbroke��' You would have thought the 

very   windows   spake�察  �So   many   greedy   looks   of   young   and   old   Through 

casements darted their desiring eyes Upon his visage�察�and that all the walls 

With   painted   imagery   had   said   at   once   'Jesu   preserve   thee�   �Welcome�察�

Bolingbroke��'      Whilst    he�察  �from    the  one    side  to   the   other   turning�察�

Bareheaded�察  �lower   than   his   proud   steed's   neck�察  �Bespake   them   thus�察  �'I 

thank    you�察  �countrymen。'     And    thus  still  doing�察  �thus  he   pass'd   along。 

DUCHESS。 Alack�察�poor Richard� �where rode he the whilst�拭�YORK。 As in 

a theatre the eyes of men After a well´grac'd actor leaves the stage Are idly 

bent on him that enters next�察�Thinking his prattle to be tedious�察�Even so�察�or 

with   much   more   contempt�察 �men's   eyes   Did   scowl on gentle   Richard�察  �no 

man cried 'God save him��' No joyful tongue gave him his welcome home�察�

But dust was thrown upon his sacred head�察�Which with such gentle sorrow 

he shook off�察�His face still combating with tears and smiles�察�The badges of 

his grief and patience�察�That had not God�察�for some strong purpose�察�steel'd 

The hearts of men�察�they must perforce have melted�察�And barbarism itself 

have pitied him。 But heaven hath a hand in these events�察�To whose high 

will we bound our calm contents。 To Bolingbroke are we sworn subjects 

now�察�Whose state and honour I for aye allow。 DUCHESS。 Here comes my 

son Aumerle。 YORK。 Aumerle that was But that is lost for being Richard's 

friend�察�And madam�察�you must call him Rudand now。 I am in Parliament 

pledge for his truth And lasting fealty to the new´made king。 

       Enter AUMERLE 

       DUCHESS。 Welcome�察�my son。 Who are the violets now That strew

nor I greatly care   not。  God knows   I had   as   lief be   none as one。 YORK。 

Well�察�bear you well in this new spring of time�察�Lest you be cropp'd before 

you come to prime。 What news from Oxford�拭�Do these justs and triumphs 

hold�拭�AUMERLE。 For aught I know�察�my lord�察�they do。 YORK。 You will 

be there�察�I know。 AUMERLE。 If God prevent not�察�I purpose so。 YORK。 

What seal is that that without thy bosom�拭�Yea�察�look'st thou pale�拭�Let me 

see the writing。 AUMERLE。 My lord�察�'tis nothing。 YORK。 No matter�察�then�察�

who   see   it。   I   will   be   satisfied�察  �let   me   see   the   writing。 AUMERLE。   I   do 

beseech   your   Grace   to   pardon   me�察  �It   is   a   matter   of   small   consequence 

Which for some reasons I would not have seen。 YORK。 Which for some 

reasons�察�sir�察�I mean to see。 I fear�察�I fear´ DUCHESS。 What should you fear�拭�

'Tis nothing but some bond that he is ent'red into For gay apparel 'gainst 

the   triumph´day。   YORK。   Bound   to   himself�   �What   doth   he   with   a   bond 

That he   is   bound   to�拭�Wife�察  �thou   art   a   fool。   Boy�察  �let   me   see   the   writing。 

AUMERLE。 I do beseech you�察�pardon me�察�I   may not show it。 YORK。 I 

will be satisfied�察�let me see it�察�I say。 ��He plucks it out of his bosom�察�and 

reads it�А�Treason�察�foul treason� �Villain� �traitor� �slave� �DUCHESS。 What is 

the matter�察�my lord�拭�YORK。 Ho� �who is within there�拭�

       Enter a servant 

       Saddle    my    horse。   God    for  his   mercy�察   �what   treachery    is  here� �

DUCHESS。 Why�察�York�察�what is it�察�my lord�拭�YORK。 Give me my boots�察�I 

say�察�saddle my horse。 Exit servant Now�察�by mine honour�察�by my life�察�my 

troth�察�I will appeach the villain。 DUCHESS。 What is the matter�拭�YORK。 

Peace�察�foolish   woman。   DUCHESS。   I   will not   peace。 What is the   matter�察�

Aumerle�拭�AUMERLE。 Good mother�察�be content�察�it is no more Than my 

poor life must answer。 DUCHESS。 Thy life answer� �YORK。 Bring me my 

boots。 I will unto the King。 

       His man enters with his boots 

       DUCHESS。 Strike him�察�Aumerle。 Poor boy�察�thou art amaz'd。 Hence�察�

villain� �never more come in my sight。 YORK。 Give me my boots�察�I say。 

DUCHESS。 Why�察�York�察�what wilt thou do�拭�Wilt thou not hide the trespass 

of   thine   own�拭  �Have   we   more   sons�拭  �or   are   we   like   to   have�拭  �Is   not   my

interchangeably       set   down    their   hands    To   kill  the  King    at   Oxford。

I have been disloyal to thy bed And that he is a bastard�察�not thy son。 Sweet
