| SCENE V. Lord Derby's house. |
 |
|
Enter DERBY and SIR CHRISTOPHER URSWICK
|
 |
|
| DERBY |
 |
|
 |
Sir Christopher, tell Richmond this from me:
That in the sty of this most bloody boar
My son George Stanley is frank'd up in hold:
If I revolt, off goes young George's head;
5 The fear of that withholds my present aid.
But, tell me, where is princely Richmond now?
|
 |
|
| CHRISTOPHER |
 |
|
 |
At Pembroke, or at Harford-west, in Wales.
|
 |
|
| DERBY |
 |
|
 |
What men of name resort to him?
|
 |
|
| CHRISTOPHER |
 |
|
 |
Sir Walter Herbert, a renowned soldier;
10 Sir Gilbert Talbot, Sir William Stanley;
Oxford, redoubted Pembroke, Sir James Blunt,
And Rice ap Thomas with a valiant crew;
And many more of noble fame and worth:
And towards London they do bend their course,
15 If by the way they be not fought withal.
|
 |
|
| DERBY |
 |
|
 |
Return unto thy lord; commend me to him:
Tell him the queen hath heartily consented
He shall espouse Elizabeth her daughter.
These letters will resolve him of my mind. Farewell.
