266and into the streete they went, and some tooke my Lord the

267yong Princes part, and some tooke the other, but betwixt

268them there was such a bloodie fray for the space of halfe an

269houre, that neither watchmẽ nor any other could stay thẽ,

270till my brother the Sheriffe of London & I were sent for,

271and at the last with much adoo we staied them, but it was

272long first, which was a great disquieting to all your louing

273subiects thereabouts: and then my good Lord, we knew not

274whether your grace had sent them to trie vs, whether we

275would doo iustice, or whether it were of their owne volun=

276tarie will or not, we cannot tell: and therefore in such a

277case we knew not what to do, but for our own safegard we

278sent him to ward, where he wanteth nothing that is fit for

279his grace, and your Maiesties sonne. And thus most hum=

280bly beseeching your Maiestie to thinke of our answere.

281Hen.4. Stand aside vntill we haue further deliberated

282on your answere.

284Hen.4. Ah Harry, Harry, now thrice accursed Harry,

285That hath gotten a sonne, which with greefe

286Will end his fathers dayes.

287Oh my sonne, a Prince thou art, I a Prince indeed,

288And to deserue imprisonment,

289And well haue they done, and like faithfull subiects:

290Discharge them and let them go.

291L.Exe. I beseech your Grace, be good to my Lord the

292yong Prince.

293Hen.4. Nay, nay, tis no matter, let him alone.

294L.Oxf. Perchance the Maior and the Sheriffe haue

295bene too precise in this matter.

296Hen.4. No: they haue done like faithfull subiects:

297I will go my selfe to discharge them, and let them go.

B2 Iudge.
