Exeunt all but YORK YORK。 Now�察 �York�察 �or never�察 �steel thy fearful
thoughts And change misdoubt to resolution�察�Be that thou hop'st to be�察�or
what thou art Resign to death´ it is not worth th' enjoying。 Let pale´fac'd
fear keep with the mean´born man And find no harbour in a royal heart。
Faster than spring´time show'rs comes thought on thought�察 �And not a
thought but thinks on dignity。 My brain�察 �more busy than the labouring
spider�察�Weaves tedious snares to trap mine enemies。 Well�察�nobles�察�well�察�'tis
politicly done To send me packing with an host of men。 I fear me you but
warm the starved snake�察 �Who�察 �cherish'd in your breasts�察 �will sting your
hearts。 'Twas men I lack'd�察�and you will give them me�察�I take it kindly。 Yet
be well assur'd You put sharp weapons in a madman's hands。 Whiles I in
Ireland nourish a mighty band�察�I will stir up in England some black storm
Shall blow ten thousand souls to heaven or hell�察�And this fell tempest shall
not cease to rage Until the golden circuit on my head�察�Like to the glorious
sun's transparent beams�察�Do calm the fury of this mad´bred flaw。 And for a
minister of my intent I have seduc'd a headstrong Kentishman�察�John Cade
of Ashford�察 �To make commotion�察 �as full well he can�察 �Under the tide of
John Mortimer。 In Ireland have I seen this stubborn Cade Oppose himself
against a troop of kerns�察�And fought so long tiff that his thighs with darts
Were almost like a sharp´quill'd porpentine�察�And in the end being rescu'd�察�I
have seen Him caper upright like a wild Morisco�察 �Shaking the bloody
darts as he his bells。 Full often�察 �like a shag´hair'd crafty kern�察 �Hath he
conversed with the enemy�察�And undiscover'd come to me again And given
me notice of their villainies。 This devil here shall be my substitute�察 �For

that John Mortimer�察�which now is dead�察�In face�察�in gait�察�in speech�察�he doth
resemble。 By this I shall perceive the commons' mind�察�How they affect the
house and claim of York。 Say he be taken�察�rack'd�察�and tortured�察�I know no
pain they can inflict upon him Will make him say I mov'd him to those
arms。 Say that he thrive�察�as 'tis great like he will�察�Why�察�then from Ireland
come I with my strength�察�And reap the harvest which that rascal sow'd�察�
For Humphrey being dead�察�as he shall be�察�And Henry put apart�察�the next
for me。 Exit

I'll call him presently�察 �my noble lord。 Exit KING HENRY。 Lords�察 �take
your places�察 �and�察 �I pray you all�察 �Proceed no straiter 'gainst our uncle
Gloucester Than from true evidence�察�of good esteem�察�He be approv'd in
practice culpable。 QUEEN。 God forbid any malice should prevail That
faultless may condemn a nobleman� �Pray God he may acquit him of
suspicion� �KING HENRY。 I thank thee�察 �Meg�察 �these words content me
much。
Re´enter SUFFOLK How now� �Why look'st thou pale�拭 �Why
tremblest thou�拭 �Where is our uncle�拭 �What's the matter�察 �Suffolk�拭�
SUFFOLK。 Dead in his bed�察�my lord�察�Gloucester is dead。 QUEEN。 Marry�察�
God forfend� �CARDINAL。 God's secret judgment� �I did dream to´night

patient。 KING。 O heavenly God� �QUEEN。 How fares my gracious lord�拭�
SUFFOLK。 Comfort�察 �my sovereign� �Gracious Henry�察 �comfort� �KING
HENRY。 What�察�doth my Lord of Suffolk comfort me�拭�Came he right now
to sing a raven's note�察 �Whose dismal tune bereft my vital pow'rs�察 �And
thinks he that the chirping of a wren�察 �By crying comfort from a hollow
breast�察 �Can chase away the first conceived sound�拭 �Hide not thy poison
with such sug'red words�察�Lay not thy hands on me�察�forbear�察�I say�察�Their
touch affrights me as a serpent's sting。 Thou baleful messenger�察�out of my
sight� �Upon thy eye´balls murderous tyranny Sits in grim majesty to fright
the world。 Look not upon me�察�for thine eyes are wounding�察�Yet do not go
away�察�come�察�basilisk�察�And kill the innocent gazer with thy sight�察�For in the
shade of death I shall find joy´ In life but double death��'now Gloucester's
dead。 QUEEN。 Why do you rate my Lord of Suffolk thus�拭�Although the
Duke was enemy to him�察 �Yet he most Christian´like laments his death�察�
And for myself´ foe as he was to me´ Might liquid tears�察 �or heart´
offending groans�察 �Or blood´consuming sighs�察 �recall his life�察 �I would be
blind with weeping�察�sick with groans�察�Look pale as primrose with blood´
drinking sighs�察�And all to have the noble Duke alive。 What know I how the
world may deem of me�拭�For it is known we were but hollow friends�此�It
may be judg'd I made the Duke away�察 �So shall my name with slander's
tongue be wounded�察�And princes' courts be fill'd with my reproach。 This
get I by his death。 Ay me�察 �unhappy� �To be a queen and crown'd with
infamy� �KING HENRY。 Ah�察 �woe is me for Gloucester�察 �wretched man� �
QUEEN。 Be woe for me�察�more wretched than he is。 What�察�dost thou turn
away�察�and hide thy face�拭�I am no loathsome leper´ look on me。 What�察�art
thou like the adder waxen deaf�拭 �Be poisonous too�察 �and kill thy forlorn
Queen。 Is all thy comfort shut in Gloucester's tomb�拭 �Why�察 �then Dame
Margaret was ne'er thy joy。 Erect his statue and worship it�察�And make my
image but an alehouse sign。 Was I for this nigh wreck'd upon the sea�察�And
twice by awkward wind from England's bank Drove back again unto my
native clime�拭�What boded this but well´forewarning wind Did seem to say
'Seek not a scorpion's nest�察�Nor set no footing on this unkind shore'�拭�What
did I then but curs'd the gentle gusts�察�And he that loos'd them forth their
brazen caves�察�And bid them blow towards Engla
