  | 
 | 4 | +Enter the ARCHBISHOP OF YORK, MOWBRAY, LORD HASTINGS, and others  | 
 | 5 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 6 | +What is this forest call'd?  | 
 | 7 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 8 | +'Tis Gaultree Forest, an't shall please your grace.  | 
 | 9 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 10 | +Here stand, my lords; and send discoverers forth  | 
 | 11 | +To know the numbers of our enemies.  | 
 | 12 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 13 | +We have sent forth already.  | 
 | 14 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 15 | +'Tis well done.  | 
 | 16 | +My friends and brethren in these great affairs,  | 
 | 17 | +I must acquaint you that I have received  | 
 | 18 | +New-dated letters from Northumberland;  | 
 | 19 | +Their cold intent, tenor and substance, thus:  | 
 | 20 | +Here doth he wish his person, with such powers  | 
 | 21 | +As might hold sortance with his quality,  | 
 | 22 | +The which he could not levy; whereupon  | 
 | 23 | +He is retired, to ripe his growing fortunes,  | 
 | 24 | +To Scotland: and concludes in hearty prayers  | 
 | 25 | +That your attempts may overlive the hazard  | 
 | 26 | +And fearful melting of their opposite.  | 
 | 27 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 28 | +Thus do the hopes we have in him touch ground  | 
 | 29 | +And dash themselves to pieces.  | 
 | 30 | +Enter a Messenger  | 
 | 31 | +
  | 
 | 32 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 33 | +Now, what news?  | 
 | 34 | +Messenger  | 
 | 35 | +West of this forest, scarcely off a mile,  | 
 | 36 | +In goodly form comes on the enemy;  | 
 | 37 | +And, by the ground they hide, I judge their number  | 
 | 38 | +Upon or near the rate of thirty thousand.  | 
 | 39 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 40 | +The just proportion that we gave them out  | 
 | 41 | +Let us sway on and face them in the field.  | 
 | 42 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 43 | +What well-appointed leader fronts us here?  | 
 | 44 | +Enter WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 45 | +
  | 
 | 46 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 47 | +I think it is my Lord of Westmoreland.  | 
 | 48 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 49 | +Health and fair greeting from our general,  | 
 | 50 | +The prince, Lord John and Duke of Lancaster.  | 
 | 51 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 52 | +Say on, my Lord of Westmoreland, in peace:  | 
 | 53 | +What doth concern your coming?  | 
 | 54 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 55 | +Then, my lord,  | 
 | 56 | +Unto your grace do I in chief address  | 
 | 57 | +The substance of my speech. If that rebellion  | 
 | 58 | +Came like itself, in base and abject routs,  | 
 | 59 | +Led on by bloody youth, guarded with rags,  | 
 | 60 | +And countenanced by boys and beggary,  | 
 | 61 | +I say, if damn'd commotion so appear'd,  | 
 | 62 | +In his true, native and most proper shape,  | 
 | 63 | +You, reverend father, and these noble lords  | 
 | 64 | +Had not been here, to dress the ugly form  | 
 | 65 | +Of base and bloody insurrection  | 
 | 66 | +With your fair honours. You, lord archbishop,  | 
 | 67 | +Whose see is by a civil peace maintained,  | 
 | 68 | +Whose beard the silver hand of peace hath touch'd,  | 
 | 69 | +Whose learning and good letters peace hath tutor'd,  | 
 | 70 | +Whose white investments figure innocence,  | 
 | 71 | +The dove and very blessed spirit of peace,  | 
 | 72 | +Wherefore do you so ill translate ourself  | 
 | 73 | +Out of the speech of peace that bears such grace,  | 
 | 74 | +Into the harsh and boisterous tongue of war;  | 
 | 75 | +Turning your books to graves, your ink to blood,  | 
 | 76 | +Your pens to lances and your tongue divine  | 
 | 77 | +To a trumpet and a point of war?  | 
 | 78 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 79 | +Wherefore do I this? so the question stands.  | 
 | 80 | +Briefly to this end: we are all diseased,  | 
 | 81 | +And with our surfeiting and wanton hours  | 
 | 82 | +Have brought ourselves into a burning fever,  | 
 | 83 | +And we must bleed for it; of which disease  | 
 | 84 | +Our late king, Richard, being infected, died.  | 
 | 85 | +But, my most noble Lord of Westmoreland,  | 
 | 86 | +I take not on me here as a physician,  | 
 | 87 | +Nor do I as an enemy to peace  | 
 | 88 | +Troop in the throngs of military men;  | 
 | 89 | +But rather show awhile like fearful war,  | 
 | 90 | +To diet rank minds sick of happiness  | 
 | 91 | +And purge the obstructions which begin to stop  | 
 | 92 | +Our very veins of life. Hear me more plainly.  | 
 | 93 | +I have in equal balance justly weigh'd  | 
 | 94 | +What wrongs our arms may do, what wrongs we suffer,  | 
 | 95 | +And find our griefs heavier than our offences.  | 
 | 96 | +We see which way the stream of time doth run,  | 
 | 97 | +And are enforced from our most quiet there  | 
 | 98 | +By the rough torrent of occasion;  | 
 | 99 | +And have the summary of all our griefs,  | 
 | 100 | +When time shall serve, to show in articles;  | 
 | 101 | +Which long ere this we offer'd to the king,  | 
 | 102 | +And might by no suit gain our audience:  | 
 | 103 | +When we are wrong'd and would unfold our griefs,  | 
 | 104 | +We are denied access unto his person  | 
 | 105 | +Even by those men that most have done us wrong.  | 
 | 106 | +The dangers of the days but newly gone,  | 
 | 107 | +Whose memory is written on the earth  | 
 | 108 | +With yet appearing blood, and the examples  | 
 | 109 | +Of every minute's instance, present now,  | 
 | 110 | +Hath put us in these ill-beseeming arms,  | 
 | 111 | +Not to break peace or any branch of it,  | 
 | 112 | +But to establish here a peace indeed,  | 
 | 113 | +Concurring both in name and quality.  | 
 | 114 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 115 | +When ever yet was your appeal denied?  | 
 | 116 | +Wherein have you been galled by the king?  | 
 | 117 | +What peer hath been suborn'd to grate on you,  | 
 | 118 | +That you should seal this lawless bloody book  | 
 | 119 | +Of forged rebellion with a seal divine  | 
 | 120 | +And consecrate commotion's bitter edge?  | 
 | 121 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 122 | +My brother general, the commonwealth,  | 
 | 123 | +To brother born an household cruelty,  | 
 | 124 | +I make my quarrel in particular.  | 
 | 125 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 126 | +There is no need of any such redress;  | 
 | 127 | +Or if there were, it not belongs to you.  | 
 | 128 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 129 | +Why not to him in part, and to us all  | 
 | 130 | +That feel the bruises of the days before,  | 
 | 131 | +And suffer the condition of these times  | 
 | 132 | +To lay a heavy and unequal hand  | 
 | 133 | +Upon our honours?  | 
 | 134 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 135 | +O, my good Lord Mowbray,  | 
 | 136 | +Construe the times to their necessities,  | 
 | 137 | +And you shall say indeed, it is the time,  | 
 | 138 | +And not the king, that doth you injuries.  | 
 | 139 | +Yet for your part, it not appears to me  | 
 | 140 | +Either from the king or in the present time  | 
 | 141 | +That you should have an inch of any ground  | 
 | 142 | +To build a grief on: were you not restored  | 
 | 143 | +To all the Duke of Norfolk's signories,  | 
 | 144 | +Your noble and right well remember'd father's?  | 
 | 145 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 146 | +What thing, in honour, had my father lost,  | 
 | 147 | +That need to be revived and breathed in me?  | 
 | 148 | +The king that loved him, as the state stood then,  | 
 | 149 | +Was force perforce compell'd to banish him:  | 
 | 150 | +And then that Harry Bolingbroke and he,  | 
 | 151 | +Being mounted and both roused in their seats,  | 
 | 152 | +Their neighing coursers daring of the spur,  | 
 | 153 | +Their armed staves in charge, their beavers down,  | 
 | 154 | +Their eyes of fire sparking through sights of steel  | 
 | 155 | +And the loud trumpet blowing them together,  | 
 | 156 | +Then, then, when there was nothing could have stay'd  | 
 | 157 | +My father from the breast of Bolingbroke,  | 
 | 158 | +O when the king did throw his warder down,  | 
 | 159 | +His own life hung upon the staff he threw;  | 
 | 160 | +Then threw he down himself and all their lives  | 
 | 161 | +That by indictment and by dint of sword  | 
 | 162 | +Have since miscarried under Bolingbroke.  | 
 | 163 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 164 | +You speak, Lord Mowbray, now you know not what.  | 
 | 165 | +The Earl of Hereford was reputed then  | 
 | 166 | +In England the most valiant gentlemen:  | 
 | 167 | +Who knows on whom fortune would then have smiled?  | 
 | 168 | +But if your father had been victor there,  | 
 | 169 | +He ne'er had borne it out of Coventry:  | 
 | 170 | +For all the country in a general voice  | 
 | 171 | +Cried hate upon him; and all their prayers and love  | 
 | 172 | +Were set on Hereford, whom they doted on  | 
 | 173 | +And bless'd and graced indeed, more than the king.  | 
 | 174 | +But this is mere digression from my purpose.  | 
 | 175 | +Here come I from our princely general  | 
 | 176 | +To know your griefs; to tell you from his grace  | 
 | 177 | +That he will give you audience; and wherein  | 
 | 178 | +It shall appear that your demands are just,  | 
 | 179 | +You shall enjoy them, every thing set off  | 
 | 180 | +That might so much as think you enemies.  | 
 | 181 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 182 | +But he hath forced us to compel this offer;  | 
 | 183 | +And it proceeds from policy, not love.  | 
 | 184 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 185 | +Mowbray, you overween to take it so;  | 
 | 186 | +This offer comes from mercy, not from fear:  | 
 | 187 | +For, lo! within a ken our army lies,  | 
 | 188 | +Upon mine honour, all too confident  | 
 | 189 | +To give admittance to a thought of fear.  | 
 | 190 | +Our battle is more full of names than yours,  | 
 | 191 | +Our men more perfect in the use of arms,  | 
 | 192 | +Our armour all as strong, our cause the best;  | 
 | 193 | +Then reason will our heart should be as good  | 
 | 194 | +Say you not then our offer is compell'd.  | 
 | 195 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 196 | +Well, by my will we shall admit no parley.  | 
 | 197 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 198 | +That argues but the shame of your offence:  | 
 | 199 | +A rotten case abides no handling.  | 
 | 200 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 201 | +Hath the Prince John a full commission,  | 
 | 202 | +In very ample virtue of his father,  | 
 | 203 | +To hear and absolutely to determine  | 
 | 204 | +Of what conditions we shall stand upon?  | 
 | 205 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 206 | +That is intended in the general's name:  | 
 | 207 | +I muse you make so slight a question.  | 
 | 208 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 209 | +Then take, my Lord of Westmoreland, this schedule,  | 
 | 210 | +For this contains our general grievances:  | 
 | 211 | +Each several article herein redress'd,  | 
 | 212 | +All members of our cause, both here and hence,  | 
 | 213 | +That are insinew'd to this action,  | 
 | 214 | +Acquitted by a true substantial form  | 
 | 215 | +And present execution of our wills  | 
 | 216 | +To us and to our purposes confined,  | 
 | 217 | +We come within our awful banks again  | 
 | 218 | +And knit our powers to the arm of peace.  | 
 | 219 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 220 | +This will I show the general. Please you, lords,  | 
 | 221 | +In sight of both our battles we may meet;  | 
 | 222 | +And either end in peace, which God so frame!  | 
 | 223 | +Or to the place of difference call the swords  | 
 | 224 | +Which must decide it.  | 
 | 225 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 226 | +My lord, we will do so.  | 
 | 227 | +Exit WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 228 | +
  | 
 | 229 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 230 | +There is a thing within my bosom tells me  | 
 | 231 | +That no conditions of our peace can stand.  | 
 | 232 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 233 | +Fear you not that: if we can make our peace  | 
 | 234 | +Upon such large terms and so absolute  | 
 | 235 | +As our conditions shall consist upon,  | 
 | 236 | +Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.  | 
 | 237 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 238 | +Yea, but our valuation shall be such  | 
 | 239 | +That every slight and false-derived cause,  | 
 | 240 | +Yea, every idle, nice and wanton reason  | 
 | 241 | +Shall to the king taste of this action;  | 
 | 242 | +That, were our royal faiths martyrs in love,  | 
 | 243 | +We shall be winnow'd with so rough a wind  | 
 | 244 | +That even our corn shall seem as light as chaff  | 
 | 245 | +And good from bad find no partition.  | 
 | 246 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 247 | +No, no, my lord. Note this; the king is weary  | 
 | 248 | +Of dainty and such picking grievances:  | 
 | 249 | +For he hath found to end one doubt by death  | 
 | 250 | +Revives two greater in the heirs of life,  | 
 | 251 | +And therefore will he wipe his tables clean  | 
 | 252 | +And keep no tell-tale to his memory  | 
 | 253 | +That may repeat and history his loss  | 
 | 254 | +To new remembrance; for full well he knows  | 
 | 255 | +He cannot so precisely weed this land  | 
 | 256 | +As his misdoubts present occasion:  | 
 | 257 | +His foes are so enrooted with his friends  | 
 | 258 | +That, plucking to unfix an enemy,  | 
 | 259 | +He doth unfasten so and shake a friend:  | 
 | 260 | +So that this land, like an offensive wife  | 
 | 261 | +That hath enraged him on to offer strokes,  | 
 | 262 | +As he is striking, holds his infant up  | 
 | 263 | +And hangs resolved correction in the arm  | 
 | 264 | +That was uprear'd to execution.  | 
 | 265 | +HASTINGS  | 
 | 266 | +Besides, the king hath wasted all his rods  | 
 | 267 | +On late offenders, that he now doth lack  | 
 | 268 | +The very instruments of chastisement:  | 
 | 269 | +So that his power, like to a fangless lion,  | 
 | 270 | +May offer, but not hold.  | 
 | 271 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 272 | +'Tis very true:  | 
 | 273 | +And therefore be assured, my good lord marshal,  | 
 | 274 | +If we do now make our atonement well,  | 
 | 275 | +Our peace will, like a broken limb united,  | 
 | 276 | +Grow stronger for the breaking.  | 
 | 277 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 278 | +Be it so.  | 
 | 279 | +Here is return'd my Lord of Westmoreland.  | 
 | 280 | +Re-enter WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 281 | +
  | 
 | 282 | +WESTMORELAND  | 
 | 283 | +The prince is here at hand: pleaseth your lordship  | 
 | 284 | +To meet his grace just distance 'tween our armies.  | 
 | 285 | +MOWBRAY  | 
 | 286 | +Your grace of York, in God's name then, set forward.  | 
 | 287 | +ARCHBISHOP OF YORK  | 
 | 288 | +Before, and greet his grace: my lord, we come.  |
