1935Riuers. Sir Richard Ratcliffe, let me tell thee this,

1936To day shalt thou behold a Subiect die,

1937For Truth, for Dutie, and for Loyaltie.

1938Grey. God blesse the Prince from all the Pack of you,

1939A Knot you are, of damned Blood-suckers.

1940Vaugh. You liue, that shall cry woe for this heere-

1941after.

1942Rat. Dispatch, the limit of your Liues is out.

1943Riuers. O Pomfret, Pomfret! O thou bloody Prison!

1944Fatall and ominous to Noble Peeres:

1945Within the guiltie Closure of thy Walls,

1946Richard the Second here was hackt to death:

1947And for more slander to thy dismall Seat,

1948Wee giue to thee our guiltlesse blood to drinke.

1949Grey. Now Margarets Curse is falne vpon our Heads,

1950When shee exclaim'd on Hastings, you, and I,

1951For standing by, when Richard stab'd her Sonne.

1952Riuers. Then curs'd shee Richard,

1953Then curs'd shee Buckingham,

1954Then curs'd shee Hastings. Oh remember God,

1955To heare her prayer for them, as now for vs:

1956And for my Sister, and her Princely Sonnes,

1957Be satisfy'd, deare God, with our true blood,

1958Which, as thou know'st, vniustly must be spilt.

1959Rat. Make haste, the houre of death is expiate.

1960Riuers. Come Grey, come Vaughan, let vs here embrace.

1961Farewell, vntill we meet againe in Heauen.
