'Fore God, his grace is bold to trust these traitors.
BEDFORD
I must say, the king is taking a bold risk letting these traitors go free.
EXETER
They shall be apprehended by and by.
EXETER
They'll be arrested in a little while.
WESTMORELAND
How smooth and even they do bear themselves,
As if allegiance in their bosoms sat
5
Crownèd with faith and constant loyalty.
WESTMORELAND
How smooth and cool they seem! Just as if they were perfectly loyal and faithful.
BEDFORD
The king hath note of all that they intend,
By interception which they dream not of.
BEDFORD
The king has been informed of all their plans, but they have no idea.
EXETER
Nay, but the man that was his bedfellow,
Whom he hath dulled and cloyed with gracious favors—
10
That he should, for a foreign purse, so sell
His sovereign's life to death and treachery!
EXETER
No, but it's unbelievable that the man who was his dearest friend, a man he has showered with love and favor, would repay the king with treachery, selling his own sovereign's life to a foreign power!
Trumpets sound. Enter KING HENRY, SCROOP, CAMBRIDGE, GREY, and attendants
Trumpets sound. KING HENRY, SCROOP, CAMBRIDGE, and GREY enter, with attendants.
KING HENRY
Now sits the wind fair, and we will aboard.
—My Lord of Cambridge, and my kind Lord of Masham,
And you, my gentle knight, give me your thoughts.
15
Think you not that the powers we bear with us
Will cut their passage through the force of France,
Doing the execution and the act
For which we have in head assembled them?
KING HENRY
Now that the wind is favorable, let's board the ship.
—My Lord of Cambridge and my good Lord of Masham and you, my noble knight, what do you think? Will our army cut a swath through the fighting force of France, achieving and accomplishing everything I've assembled them to do?
SCROOP
No doubt, my liege, if each man do his best.
SCROOP
No doubt it will, my liege, if each man does his best.
