929Archb. My Lord hearing of your wildnesse before your

930Fathers death, sent you this my good Lord,

931Meaning that you are more fitter for a Tennis Court

932Then a field, and more fitter for a Carpet then the Camp.

933Hen.5. My Lord prince Dolphin is very pleasant with (me:

934But tel him, that in steed of balles of leather,

935We wil tosse him balles of brasse and yron,

936Yea such balles as neuer were tost in France,

937The proudest Tennis Court shall rue it.

938I and thou Prince of Burges shall rue it:

939Therfore get thee hence, and tel him thy message quickly,

940Least I be there before thee: Away priest, be gone.

941Archb. I beseech your grace, to deliuer me your safe

942Conduct vnder your broad seale Emanuel.

943Hen.5. Priest of Burges, know,

944That the hand and seale of a King, and his word is all one,

945And in stead of my hand and seale,

946I will bring him my hand and sword:

947And tel thy lord & maister, that I Harry of England said it,

948And I Harry of England, wil performe it.

949My Lord of Yorke, deliuer him our safe conduct,

950Under our broad seale Emanuel.

952 Now my Lords, to Armes, to Armes,

953For I vow by heauen and earth, that the proudest

954French man in all France, shall rue the time that euer

955These Tennis balles were sent into England.

956My Lord, I wil y^e there be prouided a great Nauy of ships,

957With all speed, at South-Hampton,

958For there I meane to ship my men,

959For I would be there before him, it it were possible,

960Therefore come, but staie,

961I had almost forgot the chiefest thing of all, with chafing

962With this French Embassador.

963Call in my Lord chiefe Iustice of England.
