Full speech
You idle knaves, what are you loitering now, No hammers walking and my work to do: What not a heat among your work to day. Why knave I say, have I thus carkde & cared And all to keep thee Like a gentleman, And dost thou let my servants at their work: That sweat for thee knave, labour thus for thee, Out of my doors knave if thou likest it not, I cry you mercy is your ears so fine: I tell thee knave these get when I do sleep, I will not have my Anvil stand for thee. Have I thus brought thee up unto my cost, In hope that one day thou wouldst relieve my age, And art thee now so lavish of thy coin, To scatter it among these idle knaves. How, one Cromwell made Lord Keeper since I left Putnay And dwelled in Yorkshire, I never hard better news: I'll see that Cromwell, or it shall go hard. Now if I die, how happy were the day, To see this comfort reins forth showers of joy. You built a house, you knave yowl be a beggar, Now afore God all is but cast away, That is bestowed upon this thriftless lad, Well had I bound him to some honest trade: This had not been, but it was his morhers doing, To send him to the University, How built a house where now this cottage stands, As fair as that at Sheen, he shall not here me, A good boy Tom, I con thee thank Tom, Well said Tom, gramarcies Tom, Into your work knaves, hence you sausy boy. Tom Cromwell, what Tom I say? Here is master Bowser come to know, if you have dispatched his petition, for the Lords of the counsel or no. Thats well said Tom, a good lad Tom. Farewell Tom, God bless thee Tom, God speed thee good Tom. Body of me Tom make hast, least some body Get between thee and home Tom. I thank you good master Bowser, I thank you for my boy, I thank you always, I thank you most heartily sir, Hoe a cup of Beer there for master Bowser.
Plot summary
Plot — Thomas Lord Cromwell
So devoted is young Thomas Cromwell to his studies thathe tries to stop his father's workmen from making a noise. Old Cromwell is concerned at his ambitious son's lavishness with money: he seems not to understand the economic realities of life. He is making a living by working as a copyist, but accepts a job as a secretary in Antwerp. Banister owes Friskiball £1,ooo. Bagot has him arrested in Friskiball's name, and hardens the creditor's heart by telling him that Banister has enough money to pay his debts, if he were willing to do so. Frisk.iball relents after Mistress Banister pleads for her husband, and defers the debt until the couple have become prosperous; but the vindictive Bagot buys Banister's debts in order to oppress him. Banister flees to Antwerp, but Bagot pursues and arrests him. Cromwell agref!S to help the Banisters, and speaks to Bagot; but fails to move pity in him. Bagot negotiates with the Governor of Antwerp over some jewels, w:hich turn out to be stolen. Bagot is arrested and sent back to England; Banister is released, and awarded his confi.s.cated property. Cromwell goes to Florence with his servant Hodge, but they are robbed of their clothes. Following Italian custom, they set up bills describing their misfortune, and the anglophile Friskiball gives them money. They travel on to Bologna to relieve the Earl of Bedford, who is trapped in a house surrounded by French troops. Cromwell rescues the Earl posing as a Neapolitan hired by the French to abduct him: Hodge and Bedford exchange clothing, and Hodge is arrested in the Earl's place, but released after news arrives that Bedford is safe in Mantua. Declining the invitation to join the Ead's retinue, Cromwell completes his European tour with a trip to Spain, then returns to England, where he enters the household of Sir Thomas Hales. Im.pressed by Cromwell, Cardinal Wolsey appoints him his solicitor. After Wolsey dies, accused of treason, Croli;lwell surrenders his papers for the King's perusal. A grateful Bedford introduces him to the King; he is knighted and showered with public offices, and sets about reforming the church by confiscating ecclesiastical property. Despite his elevation, he acknowledges the lowly people he knew in his youth and pays the debts he accrued then. Meanwhile Friskiball returns to London in poverty: his debtors have defaulted, and Bagot has been hanged; only Banister acknowledges him. He waits on Cromwell, who remembers him from Florence and repays his…
