36953301Me thought their soules, whose bodies Richard murtherd,

36963302Came to my tent, and cried on victorie,

36973303I promise you, my soule is verie Iocund,

36983304In the remembrance of so faire a dreame.

36993305How farre into the morning is it Lordes?

37003306Lo. Vpon the stroke of foure.

37013307Rich. Whie, then tis time to arme, and giue direction.

37033309More then I haue said, louing countriemen,

37043310The leasure and inforcement of the time,

37053311Forbids to dwell vpon, yet remember this,

37063312God, and our good cause, fight vpon our side,

37073313The praiers of holy Saints and wronged soules,

37083314Like high reard bulwarkes, stand before our faces,

37093315Richard, except those whome we fight against,

37103316Had rather haue vs winne, then him they follow:

37113317For, what is he they follow? truelie gentlemen,

37123318A bloudie tirant, and a homicide.

37133319One raisd in bloud, and one in bloud established,

37143320One that made meanes to come by what he hath,

37153321And slaughtered those, that were the meanes to helpe him.

37163322A base foule stone, made precious by the foile,

37173323Of Englands chaire, where he is falsely set,

37183324One that hath euer bene Gods enemie.

37193325Then if you fight against Gods enemie,

37203326God will In iustice, ward you as his souldiers,

37213327If you doe sweate to put a tyrant downe,

37233329If you doe fight against your countries foes,

37243330Your countries fat, shall paie your paines the hire.

37253331If you doe fight in safegard of your wiues,

37263332Your wiues shall welcome home the conquerors.

37273333If you doe free your children from the sword,

37283334Your childrens children quits it in your age:

37293335Then in the name of God and all these rightes,

37303336Aduaunce your standards, drawe your willing swordes,

37313337For me, the raunsome of my bold attempt,

37323338shall be this could corps on the earths cold face:
