If Lewes get her, well, I say no more: But let the frolic Frenchman take no scorn, If Philip front him with an English horn. Lady, what answer make you to the King of France? Can you affect the Dolphin for your Lord? I thank the King that likes of me so well, To make me Bride unto so great a Prince: But give me leave my Lord to pause on this. Lest being too too forward in the cause, It may be blemish to my modesty. Son John, and worthy Philip K. of France, Do you confer awhile about the Dower, And I will school my modest Niece so well, That she shall yield assoon as you have done. I, there's the wretch that broacheth all this ill, Why fly I not upon the Beldames face, And with my nails pull forth her hateful eyes. Sweet Mother cease these hasty madding fits: For my sake, let my Grandam have her will. O would she with her hands pull forth my heart, I could afford it to appease these broils. But mother let us wisely wink at all: Lest farther harms ensue our hasty speech. Brother of England, what dowry wilt thou give Unto my Son in marriage with thy Niece? First Philip knows her dowry out of Spain To be so great as may content a King: But more to mend and amplify the same, I give in money thirty thousand marks. For land I leave it to thine own demand. Then I demand Volquesson, Torain, Main, Poiteer and Anjou, these five Provinces, Which thou as King of England hold'st in France: Then shall our peace be soon concluded on. No less than five such Provinces at once? Iohn Mother what shall I do? my brother got these lands With much effusion of our English blood: And shall I give it all away at once? Iohn give it him, so shalt thou live in peace, And keep the residue sanz jeopardy. Philip bring forth thy Son, here is my Niece, And here in marriage I do give with her From me and my Successors English Kings, Volquesson, Poiteer, Anjou, Torain, Main, And thirty thousand marks of stipend coin. Now Citizens, how like you of this match? We joy to see so sweet a peace begun. Lewes with Blanch shall ever live content. But now King Iohn, what say you to the Duke? Father, speak as you may in his behalf. K. Iohn, be good unto thy Nephewhere, And give him some what that shall please thee best. Arthur, although thou troublest England's peace: Yet here I give thee Britain for thine own, Together with the Earldom of Richmont, And this rich City of Angiers withal. And if thou seek to please thine Uncle John, Shalt see my Son how I will make of thee. Now every thing is sorted to this end, Let's in and there prepare the marriage rites, Which in S. Mary's Chapel presently shallbe performed ere this Presence part.
