NORTHUMBERLAND Believe me, noble lord, I am a stranger here in Gloucestershire: These high wild hills and rough uneven ways 5 Draws out our miles, and makes them wearisome, And yet your fair discourse hath been as sugar, Making the hard way sweet and delectable. But I bethink me what a weary way From Ravenspurgh to Cotswold will be found 10 In Ross and Willoughby, wanting your company, Which, I protest, hath very much beguiled The tediousness and process of my travel: But theirs is sweetened with the hope to have The present benefit which I possess; 15 And hope to joy is little less in joy Than hope enjoyd: by this the weary lords Shall make their way seem short, as mine hath done By sight of what I have, your noble company.

HENRY PERCY Because your lordship was proclaimed traitor. But he, my lord, is gone to Ravenspurgh, To offer service to the Duke of Hereford, And sent me over by Berkeley, to discover 35 What power the Duke of York had levied there; Then with directions to repair to Ravenspurgh.

HENRY BOLINGBROKE I thank thee, gentle Percy; and be sure I count myself in nothing else so happy As in a soul remembering my good friends; And, as my fortune ripens with thy love, 50 It shall be still thy true loves recompense: My heart this covenant makes, my hand thus seals it.

DUKE OF YORK Tut, tut! Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle: I am no traitors uncle; and that word grace. 90 In an ungracious mouth is but profane. Why have those banishd and forbidden legs Dared once to touch a dust of Englands ground? But then more why? why have they dared to march So many miles upon her peaceful bosom, 95 Frighting her pale-faced villages with war And ostentation of despised arms? Comest thou because the anointed king is hence? Why, foolish boy, the king is left behind, And in my loyal bosom lies his power. 100 Were I but now the lord of such hot youth As when brave Gaunt, thy father, and myself Rescued the Black Prince, that young Mars of men, From forth the ranks of many thousand French, O, then how quickly should this arm of mine. 105 Now prisoner to the palsy, chastise thee And minister correction to thy fault!

HENRY BOLINGBROKE As I was banishd, I was banishd Hereford; 115 But as I come, I come for Lancaster. And, noble uncle, I beseech your grace Look on my wrongs with an indifferent eye: You are my father, for methinks in you I see old Gaunt alive; O, then, my father, 120 Will you permit that I shall stand condemnd A wandering vagabond; my rights and royalties Pluckd from my arms perforce and given away To upstart unthrifts? Wherefore was I born? If that my cousin king be King of England, 125 It must be granted I am Duke of Lancaster. You have a son, Aumerle, my noble cousin; Had you first died, and he been thus trod down, He should have found his uncle Gaunt a father, To rouse his wrongs and chase them to the bay. 130 I am denied to sue my livery here, And yet my letters-patents give me leave: My fathers goods are all distraind and sold, And these and all are all amiss employd. What would you have me do? I am a subject, 135 And I challenge law: attorneys are denied me; And therefore, personally I lay my claim To my inheritance of free descent.

DUKE OF YORK My lords of England, let me tell you this: I have had feeling of my cousins wrongs And laboured all I could to do him right; But in this kind to come, in braving arms, 145 Be his own carver and cut out his way, To find out right with wrong, it may not be; And you that do abet him in this kind Cherish rebellion and are rebels all.

DUKE OF YORK Well, well, I see the issue of these arms: I cannot mend it, I must needs confess, 155 Because my power is weak and all ill left: But if I could, by Him that gave me life, I would attach you all and make you stoop Unto the sovereign mercy of the king; But since I cannot, be it known to you 160 I do remain as neuter. So, fare you well; Unless you please to enter in the castle And there repose you for this night.	DEUK OF KROY ellW, elwl, I ese owh sthi is igong to go.

DUKE OF YORK Tut, tut! Grace me no grace, nor uncle me no uncle: I am no traitors uncle; and that word grace. 90 In an ungracious mouth is but profane. Why have those banishd and forbidden legs Dared once to touch a dust of Englands ground? But then more why? why have they dared to march So many miles upon her peaceful bosom, 95 Frighting her pale-faced villages with war And ostentation of despised arms? Comest thou because the anointed king is hence? Why, foolish boy, the king is left behind, And in my loyal bosom lies his power. 100 Were I but now the lord of such hot youth As when brave Gaunt, thy father, and myself Rescued the Black Prince, that young Mars of men, From forth the ranks of many thousand French, O, then how quickly should this arm of mine. 105 Now prisoner to the palsy, chastise thee And minister correction to thy fault!

DUKE OF YORK Even in condition of the worst degree, 110 In gross rebellion and detested treason: Thou art a banishd man, and here art come Before the expiration of thy time, In braving arms against thy sovereign.

HENRY BOLINGBROKE As I was banishd, I was banishd Hereford; 115 But as I come, I come for Lancaster. And, noble uncle, I beseech your grace Look on my wrongs with an indifferent eye: You are my father, for methinks in you I see old Gaunt alive; O, then, my father, 120 Will you permit that I shall stand condemnd A wandering vagabond; my rights and royalties Pluckd from my arms perforce and given away To upstart unthrifts? Wherefore was I born? If that my cousin king be King of England, 125 It must be granted I am Duke of Lancaster. You have a son, Aumerle, my noble cousin; Had you first died, and he been thus trod down, He should have found his uncle Gaunt a father, To rouse his wrongs and chase them to the bay. 130 I am denied to sue my livery here, And yet my letters-patents give me leave: My fathers goods are all distraind and sold, And these and all are all amiss employd. What would you have me do? I am a subject, 135 And I challenge law: attorneys are denied me; And therefore, personally I lay my claim To my inheritance of free descent.

DUKE OF YORK My lords of England, let me tell you this: I have had feeling of my cousins wrongs And laboured all I could to do him right; But in this kind to come, in braving arms, 145 Be his own carver and cut out his way, To find out right with wrong, it may not be; And you that do abet him in this kind Cherish rebellion and are rebels all.

DUKE OF YORK Well, well, I see the issue of these arms: I cannot mend it, I must needs confess, 155 Because my power is weak and all ill left: But if I could, by Him that gave me life, I would attach you all and make you stoop Unto the sovereign mercy of the king; But since I cannot, be it known to you 160 I do remain as neuter. So, fare you well; Unless you please to enter in the castle And there repose you for this night.	DEUK OF KROY ellW, elwl, I ese owh sthi is igong to go.

HENRY BOLINGBROKE An offer, uncle, that we will accept: But we must win your grace to go with us 165 To Bristol castle, which they say is held By Bushy, Bagot and their complices, The caterpillars of the commonwealth, Which I have sworn to weed and pluck away.
