25982300For this, the foolish ouer-carefull fathers

25992301Haue broke their sleepe with thoughts,

26002302Their braines with care, their bones with industry:

26012303For this they haue ingrossed and pilld vp,

26022304The cankred heapes of strange atcheeued gold:

26032305For this they haue beene thoughtfull to inuest

26042306Their sonnes with arts and martiall exercises,

26052307When like the bee toling from euery flower,

26062308Our thigh, packt with waxe, our mouthes with hony,

26072309We bring it to the hiue: and like the bees,

26082310Are murdred for our paines, this bitter taste

26092311Yeelds his engrossements to the ending father,

26122312Now where is he that will not stay so long,

26132313Till his friend sicknesse hands determind me. Enter Warwicke.

26142314War. My Lord, I found the prince in the next roome,

26152315Washing with kindly teares, his gentle cheekes,

26162316With such a deepe demeanour in great sorrow,

26172317That tyranny, which neuer quaft but bloud,

26182318Would by beholding him, haue washt his knife,

26192319With gentle eie-drops, hee is comming hither. Enter Harry.

26202320King But wherefore did he take away the crowne?

26222321Loe where he comes, come hither to me Harry,

26242323Harry I neuer thought to heare you speake againe.

26252324King Thy wish was father (Harry,) to that thought

26262325I stay too long by thee, I weary thee,

26272326Dost thou so hunger for mine emptie chaire,

26282327That thou wilt needes inuest thee with my honors,

26292328Before thy howre be ripe! O foolish youth,

26302329Thou seekst the greatnesse that will ouerwhelme thee,

26312330Stay but a little, for my clowd of dignity

26322331Is held from falling with so weake a wind,

26332332That it will quickly drop: my day is dim,

26342333Thou hast stolne that, which after some few houres,

26352334Were thine, without offence, and at my death,

26362335Thou hast seald vp my expectation,
