And what then? It was our will it should be so? I, and for such a thing too the Lord Scales Did well deserve at your hands, to have the Daughter of the Lord Bonsield and left your Brothers to go seek elsewhere, but in Your madness, you butie brotherhood. Alas poor Clarence, is it for a wife, That thou art malcontent, Why man be of good cheer, I will provide thee one. Nay you played the broker soul for yourself, That you shall give me leave to make my Choice as I think good, and to that intent, I shortly mean to leave you. Leave me or tarry I am full resolved. Edward will not be tied to his brother's wills. My Lords do 〈◊〉 but right and you must Confess, before it pleased his highness to advance My state to title of a Queen, That I was not ignoble in my birth. Forthcare my love to ●iwne upon their frowns, For thee they must obay, shall ob , And if they look for favour at my hands. My Lord, here is the messenger returned from France. Now s●●a, What letters or what new●●● No letters my Lord, and such 〈…〉 without your highness special pardon I dare not dilate. We pardon thee, and as near as thou canst Tell me, What said Lewis to our letters? At my departure these were his vetie words. Go tell false Edward thy supposed king, That Lewis of France is sending over Maskers, To reuill it with him and his new bride. Is Lewis so brave, belike he thinks me Henry. But what said Lady Bona to these wrongs? Tell him quoth she, in hope he'll prove a widower shortly, I'll wear the willow garland for his sake. She had the wrong, indeed she could say Little less. But what said Henry's Queen, for as I hear, she was then in place? Tell him quoth she my mourning weeds be Done, and I am ready to put armour on. Then be like she means to place the Amazon. But what said Warwick to these injuries? He more incensed than the rest my Lord, Tell him quoth he, that he hath done me wrong, And therefore I'll uncrown him ere be long. Ha, Durst the traitor breath out such proud words? But I will arm me to prevent the worst. But what is Warwick friends with Margaret? I my good Lord▪ there so 〈◊〉 in friendship, That young Prince Edward marries Warwikes daughter. The elder, belike Clarence shall have the Younger. All you that love me and Warwick Follo v me. Clarence and Summerset fled to Warwick. What say you brother Richard, will you stand to us? I my Lord in despite of all that shall Withstand you For why hath Nature Made me halt down right, but that I Should be valiant and stand to it, for if I would, I cannot run away.
