Richard II (Folio 1, 1623)
2791Scoena Quinta.
2792Flourish. Enter Bullingbrooke, Yorke, with
2793other Lords & attendants.
2797But whether they be tane or slaine, we heare not.
2798Enter Northumberland.
2799Welcome my Lord: What is the newes?
2801The next newes is, I haue to London sent
2802The heads of Salsbury, Spencer, Blunt, and Kent:
2803The manner of their taking may appeare
2805Bul. We thank thee gentle Percy for thy paines,
2806And to thy worth will adde right worthy gaines.
2807Enter Fitz-waters.
2809The heads of Broccas, and Sir Bennet Seely,
2810Two of the dangerous consorted Traitors,
2811That sought at Oxford, thy dire ouerthrow.
2813Right Noble is thy merit, well I wot.
2814Enter Percy and Carlile.
2817Hath yeelded vp his body to the graue:
2818But heere is Carlile, liuing to abide
2819Thy Kingly doome, and sentence of his pride.
2820Bul. Carlile, this is your doome:
2822More then thou hast, and with it ioy thy life:
2824For though mine enemy, thou hast euer beene,
2826Enter Exton with a Coffin.
2828Thy buried feare. Heerein all breathlesse lies
2830Richard of Burdeaux, by me hither brought.
2832A deede of Slaughter, with thy fatall hand,
2833Vpon my head, and all this famous Land.
2834Ex. From your owne mouth my Lord, did I this deed.
2836Nor do I thee: though I did wish him dead,
2837I hate the Murtherer, loue him murthered.
2838The guilt of conscience take thou for thy labour,
2839But neither my good word, nor Princely fauour.
2840With Caine go wander through the shade of night,
2841And neuer shew thy head by day, nor light.
2844Come mourne with me, for that I do lament,
2845And put on sullen Blacke incontinent:
2846Ile make a voyage to the Holy-land,
2848March sadly after, grace my mourning heere,
2849In weeping after this vntimely Beere. Exeunt.
2850FINIS.
