21421933Because, my Lord, we would haue had you heard

21431934The traitor speake, and timerously confesse

21441935The maner, and the purpose of his treason,

21451936That you might well haue signified the same

21461937Vnto the Citizens, who happily may

21471938Misconster vs in him, and wayle his death.

21481939Ma. But my good Lord, your graces word shall serue

21491940As well as I had seene or heard him speake,

21501941And doubt you not, right noble Princes both,

21511942But Ile acquaint your dutious citizens,

21521943With all your iust proceedings in this cause.

21531944Glo. And to that end we wisht your Lordship here

21541945To auoyde the carping censures of the world.

21551946Buc. But since you come too late of our intents,

21561947Yet witnesse what we did intend, and so my Lord adue.

21591948Glo. After, after, coosin Buckingham, Exit Maior.

21601949The Maior towards Guildhall hies him in all post,

21611950There at your meetst aduantage of the time,

21621951Inferre the bastardy of Edwards children:

21631952Tell them how Edward put to death a Cittizen,

21641953Onely for saying he would make his sonne

21651954Heire to the Crowne, meaning (indeede) his house,

21661955Which by the signe thereof was termed so.

21671956Moreouer, vrge his hatefull luxurie,

21681957And bestiall appetite in change of lust,

21691958Which stretched to theyr seruants, daughters, wiues,

21701959Euen where his lustfull eye, or sauage heart

21711960Without controll listed to make his prey:

21721961Nay for a neede thus farre, come neere my person.

21731962Tell them, when that my mother went with childe

21741963Of that vnsatiate Edward, noble Yorke

21751964My princely father then had warres in Fraunce,

21761965And by iust computation of the tyme

21771966Found, that the issue was not his begot,

21781967Which well appeared in his lineaments,

21791968Being nothing like the noble Duke my father:

21801969But touch this sparingly as it were farre off,

21811970Because you know, my Lord, my mother liues.
