'Tis healthful to be stirring in a Morning. And if my brow be sad or my face pale, They do belie my heart, for I am merry. The discontend desire to be alone, My wishes are made up, for they are gone. Here are no blabs but this, and this one clock I'll keep from going with a double lock: Yet it will strike, this day it must be done. What must be done? what must this engine do? A deed of treason hath prepared me too. These too, these too, why they had life by her, And shall these two kill their deliverer? The life that makes me rise? these once my sin Had forfeited, her mercy pardoned me: I had been eaten up with worms ere this, Had not her mercy given a life to this: And yet these hands if I perform my oath, Must kill that life, that gave a life to both. I have taken the Sacrament to doo't, confe'rd With Cardinal Cemo about it, and received Full absolution from his Holiness, Been satisfied by many holy father's, During my travels both in France and Italy, The deed is joust and meritorious, And yet I am troubled when I do remember The excellency of her Majesty, And I would feign desist, but that I know How many vows of mine are gone to heaven, My letters and my promises on earth, To holy father's and graven Catholics: That I would doo't for good of Catholics. Then in the Garden where this day she walks, Her graces I will cast behind mine eyes, And by a subjects hand, a Sovereign die. Oh, let me see a difference in this man! Before this Queen (that I am come to kill) Showed me the gracious eye of her respect, And gave me countenance amongst greatest Earls: This man was forwarder to thrust me forth, Then now he is humble to accept me in. If then her Grace hath honoured me so much, How can this hand give her a treacherous touch? The Trumpets speak, heaven what shall I do? Even what hell, & my dam ed heart shall thrust me too. Now, what makes me shake? Do Angels guard her, or does heaven partake Her refuge? Now Queen. My must dread Sovereign. I know your love dread Queen: Now. I did no more then duty: Oh happy time! Madam. Pardon dread Sovereign. Mercy dread Queen. My Lord, my Lord, my very good Lord.
Plot summary
Plot — 2 If You Know Not Me You Know Nobody (The Second Part of Queen Elizabeth's Troubles)
GhomasyGresham is in long legal dispute with Sir (homaspRamisay over a land deal: Gresham outbid Ramsay after contracts were exchanged, bought the land and built on it, so each man now claims ownership. DEINGWEll adjudicates fairly between them and makes them friends. Under the terms of the settlement, Gresham is to pay Ramsay £100, but his nephew John misappropriates the money and contrives ===== PAGE 115 ===== 1604 to get Timothy the factor arrested for debt. Caught out, Timothy admits that he has embezzled £500 from Gresham, and Gresham applauds John’s misbehaviour as an example of good financial management. Gresham sees the need for a dry place in London where merchants can do business; and, inspired by portraits of famous Londoners responsible for important civic buildings and institutions, he gets permission and funding to build it himself. He is unabashed by heavy losses through war and shipwreck (including a change of king in Barbary after the battle of Alcazar, which costs him his trade monopoly in Barbary sugar). Eventually an impressive Burse is built, and opened by Queen Elizabeth: she names it the Royal Exchange, and knights Gresham. Another strand of the action focuses on the comic eccentricities of old M@bSGH, who records an honest pedlar’s account under a nickname, Bawny2@oat, so that the man is unable to pay what he owes when he returns to the shop. “Tawny-Coat’ is ruined by his debts to Hobson and by his own charity, but Hobson takes pity when he finds him honest in poverty, and he eventually becomes a prominent and prosperous citizen. Hobson further shows his good nature by rushing off to save [im6thy, who is to be hanged for theft. Meanwhile, hoping to cure his prodigality, Gresham has sent J@HHi to work for Hobson, who in turn has sent the young man to France. There he cheats his master by taking his instructions literally, and, knowing that the English Channel is between him and Hobson, wastes time and money on prostitutes and riotous living. Hobson eventually hears of this and goes to France; but when he catches John with a courtesan, John turns the tables by pretending that the old man will himself be arrested if he is found in her company. Back in England, John finally seeks to rectify his desperate financial situation by marrying Ramsay's rich widow; she refuses him, but pays his debts. At court, Dr Parry, a convicted criminal whom the Queen has pardoned, has been induced by the Catholic church to assassinate her, but he cannot…
