| Enter WARWICK and the Lord CHIEF JUSTICE
|
|
|
WARWICK and the Lord CHIEF JUSTICE enter. |
|
| | WARWICK |
| |
How now, my Lord Chief Justice, whither away? |
|
| WARWICK |
|
What's happening, my Lord Chief Justice? Where are you going? |
|
| | CHIEF JUSTICE |
| |
How doth the King? |
|
| CHIEF JUSTICE |
|
How's the King doing? |
|
| | WARWICK |
| |
Exceeding well. His cares are now all ended. |
|
| WARWICK |
|
Very well. All his worries are ended now. |
|
| | CHIEF JUSTICE |
| |
I hope, not dead. |
|
| CHIEF JUSTICE |
|
Not dead, I hope. |
|
| | WARWICK |
| |
He's walked the way of nature, |
| 5 |
And to our purposes he lives no more. |
|
| WARWICK |
|
He's gone down nature's path; for our purposes, he is no longer living. |
|
| | CHIEF JUSTICE |
| |
I would his Majesty had called me with him. |
| |
The service that I truly did his life |
| |
Hath left me open to all injuries. |
|
| CHIEF JUSTICE |
|
I wish his majesty had brought me with him. The work I did for him while he was alive makes me very vulnerable, now that he's dead. |
|
| | WARWICK |
| |
Indeed, I think the young King loves you not. |
|
| WARWICK |
|
Indeed, I think the young King has no love for you. |
|
| | CHIEF JUSTICE |
| 10 |
I know he doth not, and do arm myself |
| |
To welcome the condition of the time, |
| |
Which cannot look more hideously upon me |
| |
Than I have drawn it in my fantasy. |
|
| CHIEF JUSTICE |
|
I know he doesn't. I'm preparing myself to deal with whatever happens, which can't be any worse than what I've imagined. |
|
| Enter LANCASTER, CLARENCE, GLOUCESTER, and others |
|
|
LANCASTER, CLARENCE, GLOUCESTER, and others enter. |
|
| | WARWICK |
| |
Here come the heavy issue of dead Harry. |
| 15 |
O, that the living Harry had the temper |
| |
Of he the worst of these three gentlemen! |
| |
How many nobles then should hold their places |
| |
That must strike sail to spirits of vile sort! |
|
| WARWICK |
|
Here come the heavy-hearted children of dead Harry. If only the living Harry had the character of the worst of these three young men. Then a lot of noblemen would remain secure, instead of having to step aside to make room for lowlifes. |
