A strange beginning: borrowed Majesty? Lookest thou pale France? do not let go thy hand. Oh foul revolt of French inconstancy. What now my son, have I not ever said How that ambitious Constance would not coast Till she had kindled France and all the world, Upon the right and party of her son. This might have been prove ed, and made whole With very easy arguments of love, Which now the ma nage of two kingdoms must With fearful bloody issue arbitrate, The very spirit of Plantagenet : I am thy grandame Richard, call me so. Farewell gentle Cousin. Come hither little kinsman, hark, a word. My blessing go with thee. Your strong possessio ̄ much more then your right, Or else it must go wrong with you and me, So much my conscience whispers in your ear, Which none but heaven, and you, and I, shall hear. Out on thee rude man, y u dost shame thy mother, And wound her honour with this diffidence. Whither hadst thou rather be a Falconbridge, And Like thy brother to enjoy thy land: Or the reputed son of Cordelion, Lord of thy presence, and no land beside. He hath a trick of Cordelions face, The accent of his tongue affects him: Do you not read some tokens of my son In the large composition of this man? I Like thee well: wilt thou forsake thy fortune, Bequeathe thy land to him, and follow me? I am a Soldier, and now bound to France. Nay, I would have you go before me thither. Son, list to this conjunction, make this match Give with our Niece a dowry large enough, For by this knot, thou shalt so surely tie Thy now vnsur'd assurance to the Crown, That you green boy shall have no Sun to ripe The bloom that promises a mighty fruit. I see a yielding in the looks of France: Mark how they whisper, urge them while their souls Are capable of this ambition, Least zeal now melted by the windy breath Of soft petitions, pity and remorse, Cool and congeal again to what it was. His mother shames him so, poor boy he weeps. Thou monstrous slanderer of heaven and earth. Thou unadvised scold, I can produce A Will, that bars the title of thy son. Who is it thou dost call usurper France ? Out insolent, thy bastard shall be King, That thou mayest be a Queen, and check the world. Theres a good mother boy, that blots thy fa there Come to thy grandame child.
Plot summary
Plot — King John
The Plantagenets have a dynastic dispute: J@lih is de facto King of England, but Alptiillir, the young son of his dead elder brother, has a better claim in primogeniture; France takes Arthur’s side. John is asked to adjudicate in another case of . disputed inheritance: Robert Falé@nbridge claims that his elder brother BHiliip is a bastard, begotten in his father’s absence by the dead King Richard. John rules for Philip’s legitimacy irrespective of parentage, since he was conceived in wedlock; but Philip decides to be a king’s son rather than a knight’s heir, cedes his brother the family lands, and joins John’s court. John meets the Kinglofibrance outside the town of Angers, which claims loyalty to the English crown but is holding out against both claimants until the issue is decided. England and France decide to defer their differences until they have subjugated Angers, but the citizens save themselves by suggesting an Anglo- French marriage between DOUISNEHEMDapHin and John’s niece BI@HEHE; France expediently transfers its support from Arthur to John. After the wedding, the papal legate Pandulph excommunicates John for his interference in ecclesiastical affairs, and declares his assassination legitimate.

Hubert makes arrangements to blind Arthur, but cannot bring himself to go through with it. John’s lords demand Arthur’s release, but Hubert untruthfully reports that he is dead as ordered. The lords infer John’s responsibility and plan rebellion. Setbacks build up: John’s mother, left behind to govern his French possessions, dies, and the Dauphin lands his invasion force in England.

John submits to papal authority, fulfilling a prophecy that he would lose his crown. Pandulph tries to intervene with the Dauphin, only to find that he has started something he cannot…
