BRAKENBURY 90I am in this commanded to deliver The noble duke of Clarence to your hands. I will not reason what is meant hereby Because I will be guiltless from the meaning. There lies the duke asleep, and there the keys. 95 He hands them the keys I’ll to the king and signify to him That thus I have resigned my charge to you.	BRAKENBURY It orders me to hand the noble duke of Clarence over to you. I won’t ask why because I’d rather not know than feel guilty if you’re doing something you shouldn’t be. Here are the keys, and there is the duke, sleeping. (he hands them the keys) I’ll go to the king to let him know I’ve handed my prisoner over to you.
FIRST MURDERER You may, sir. 'Tis a point of wisdom. Fare you well.	FIRST MURDERER You may, sir. That’s a wise idea. Goodbye.
