God bless your grace with health and happy days. I thank you good my Lo: and thank you all: I thought my mother, and my brother York, Would long ere this have met us on the way: Fie, what a slug is Hastings that he comes not To tell us whether they will come, or no, And in good time, here comes the sweeting Lo: Welcome my Lo: what will our mother come? On what occasion, God he knows, not I: The Queen your mother and your brother York Have taken sanctuary: The tender Prince Would feign have come with me, to meet your Grace, But by his mother was perforce withheld. Fie, what an indirect and peevish course Is this of hers? Lo: Cardinal will your grace Persuade the Queen to send the Duke of York Unto his Princely brother presently? If she deny, Lo: Hastings go with him, And from her jealous arms pluck him perforce. My Lo: of Buckingham, if my weak oratory Can from his mother win the Duke of York, Anon expect him here: but if she be obdurate To mild entreaties, God in heaven forbidden We should infringe the holy privilege Of blessed sanctuary, not for all this land, Would I be guilty of so deep a sin. You are too senseless obstinate my Lo: Too ceremonious and traditional: Weigh it but with the grossness of this age▪ You break not sanctuary in seizing him: The benefit thereof is always granted To those whose dealings have deserved the place, And those who have the wit to claim the place. This Prince hath neither claimed it, nor deserved it, And therefore in mine opinion, cannot have it. Then taking him from thence that is not there, You break no privilege nor charter there: Oft have I heard of sanctuary men, But sanctuary children never till now. My Lo: you shall overrule my mind for once: Come on Lo: Hastings will you go with me? I go my Lord. Good Lords make all the speedy haste you may: Say Uncle Gloucester, if our brother come, Where shall we sojourn till our coronation? Where 〈◊〉 seems best unto your royal self: If I may council you, some day or two, Your highness shall repose you at the tower: Then where you please, and shallbe thought most fit For your best health and rec●cation. I do not like the ●ower of any place: Did Iulius Caesar build that place my Lord? He did, my gracious Lo: begin that place, Which since succeeding ages have reedified. Is it upon record, or else reported Successively from age to age he built it? Upon record my gracious Lo: But say my Lo: it were not registered, Me thinks the truth should live from age to age, As ttwere retailed to all posterity, Even to the general all-ending day. So wise, so young, they say do never live long. What say you Uncle?
