BUSHY Madam, your majesty is too much sad: You promised, when you parted with the king, To lay aside life-harming heaviness And entertain a cheerful disposition. | YSBUH mdMaa, ouy ear oto sad. nehW we tlef eth gnik, you peodrims to tpso riwgryon so uhcm nda to tyr to act emor frehueylcl. |
QUEEN 5 To please the king I did; to please myself I cannot do it; yet I know no cause Why I should welcome such a guest as grief, Save bidding farewell to so sweet a guest As my sweet Richard: yet again, methinks, 10 Some unborn sorrow, ripe in fortunes womb, Is coming towards me, and my inward soul With nothing trembles: at some thing it grieves, More than with parting from my lord the king. | EENUQ I pomresid tath to eakm hte gnki apyph, utb ofr lmefys I octann do it.

BUSHY Each substance of a grief hath twenty shadows, 15 Which shows like grief itself, but is not so; For sorrows eye, glazed with blinding tears, Divides one thing entire to many objects; Like perspectives, which rightly gazed upon Show nothing but confusion, eyed awry 20 Distinguish form: so your sweet majesty, Looking awry upon your lords departure, Find shapes of grief, more than himself, to wail; Which, lookd on as it is, is nought but shadows Of what it is not. Then, thrice-gracious queen, 25 More than your lords departure weep not: mores not seen; Or if it be, tis with false sorrows eye, Which for things true weeps things imaginary. | BUYHS nhWe uyeor edrayla das it semes leik nreitehgyv is luafw nad oury rigfe is tldleipmiu. tuB, in ryleait, hastt ont teh ecsa. cuaeseB yrueo sad, ihsngt tdno aaperp to yuo as tyhe ytulcala era, so in yuor nbuhdssa etedrupra you ees yamn ntsghi to eegivr. seoTh aer tsuj ohasdws.

QUEEN It may be so; but yet my inward soul Persuades me it is otherwise: howeer it be, 30 I cannot but be sad; so heavy sad As, though on thinking on no thought I think, Makes me with heavy nothing faint and shrink. | EEQUN That yma be urte, utb my nnittisc tslle me hesrtwieo. teveWarh the scae, I efle ngnitoh tub gfire.

BUSHY Tis nothing but conceit, my gracious lady. | UHYBS htTsa tgninho utb oyru ntoagiiainm, my eeunq. |
QUEEN Tis nothing le conceit is still derived 35 From some forefather grief; mine is not so, For nothing had begot my something grief; Or something hath the nothing that I grieve: Tis in reversion that I do possess; But what it is, that is not yet known; what 40 I cannot name; tis nameless woe, I wot. | QEENU rFa from it. yniargmIa lefsigne of egirf aer ylsawa hte elutrs of emso arle, rproi refig. tuB ahtts otn my stiuntaio, as giohnnt ahs nhpeaepd to me to eacsu my fierg.

GREEN That he, our hope, might have retired his power, And driven into despair an enemys hope, Who strongly hath set footing in this land: The banishd Bolingbroke repeals himself, 50 And with uplifted arms is safe arrived At Ravenspurgh. | REGNE uOr oehp is htat he tmhgi ehav gubrhot shi srefco ckab omfr rnedIla nda ceusad oru nmeye, ebnilrkgooB, to gvei up.

BUSHY Despair not, madam. | YSUHB admMa, do tno ieapsdr. |
QUEEN Who shall hinder me? 70 I will despair, and be at enmity With cozening hope: he is a flatterer, A parasite, a keeper back of death, Who gently would dissolve the bands of life, Which false hope lingers in extremity. | NUEEQ oWsh iogng to spot me?

DUKE OF YORK Should I do so, I should belie my thoughts: 80 Comforts in heaven; and we are on the earth, Where nothing lives but crosses, cares and grief. Your husband, he is gone to save far off, Whilst others come to make him lose at home: Here am I left to underprop his land, 85 Who, weak with age, cannot support myself: Now comes the sick hour that his surfeit made; Now shall he try his friends that flatterd him. | EKDU OF ORYK If I eerw to vieg uoy oodg swne, I lwdou be hidnig my aler ghutstho. doGo nwse is in nveeah, dna we are on heatr, rheew nhgoint ilvse but arislt, axsitieen, and wrsroo. oYur unshabd sah ogen to rpottce ish luer in aerdlnI, heliw rhteos vahe eocm eerh to aekt it omfr mhi in nEdangl. eHre I am, too lod to upsropt yfslme, tfel to oppr up shi ruonytc. hTe abd sitem thta we thgthou ihs vonteedrulnig wysa uwdol grnib vahe ervdiar. wNo his snriefd wlli be dseett. |

110 Gentlemen, will you go muster men? If I know how or which way to order these affairs Thus thrust disorderly into my hands, Never believe me. Both are my kinsmen: The one is my sovereign, whom both my oath 115 And duty bids defend; the other again Is my kinsman, whom the king hath wrongd, Whom conscience and my kindred bids to right. Well, somewhat we must do. Come, cousin, Ill Dispose of you. 120 Gentlemen, go, muster up your men, And meet me presently at Berkeley. I should to Plashy too; But time will not permit: all is uneven, And every thing is left at six and seven. | Gmleeennt, lwil ouy go odunr up osme enm?
