My Lord, you told me you would tell the rest, When weeping made you break the story of Of our two continued inns coming into London. At that sad stop my Lord, Where rude misgoverned hands from windows tops. Threw dust and rubbish on king Richard's head. Alac poor Richard, where road he the while? Here comes my son Aumerle. Welcome my son, who are the violets now That the green lap of the new come spring. What should you fear? 'Tis nothing but some band that he is entered into For gay apparel gainst the triumph day. What is the matter my lord? Why what is it my Lord? What is the matter? I will not peace, what is the matter Aumerle? Thy life answer? Strike him Aumerle, poor boy thou art amazed, Hence vilaine never more come in my ight. Why York what wilt thou do? Wilt thou not hide the trespass of thine own? Have we more sons? or are we Like to have? Is not my teeming date drunk up with time? And wilt thou pluck my fair son from mine age? And rob me of a happy mother's name, Is he not Like the? is he not thine own? He shall be none, weel keep him here, Then what is that to him? Hadst thou groaned for him as I have done, Thou wouldst be more pitiful. But now I know rhy mind, thou dost suspect That I have been disloyal to thy bed, And that he is a bastard, not thy son: Sweet York, sweet husband, be not of that mind, He is as Like thee as a man may be, Not Like to me, or any of my kin, And yet I love him. After Aumerle: mount thee upon his horse, Spur, post, and get before him to the King, And beg thy pardon ere he do accuse thee, I'll not be long behind, though I be old, I doubt not but to ride as fast as York. And never will I rise up from the ground, Till Bullingbroke have pardoned thee: away, be gone. What ho, my Liege, for Gods sake let me in. A woman, and thy aunt (great king) 'tis I, Speak with me, pity me, open the do e, A beggar begs that never begged before. O king, believe not this hardhearted man, Love loving not it self, none other can. Sweet York be patient, hear me gentle Liege. Not yet I thee beseech, For ever will I walk upon my knees, And never see day that the happy sees, Till thou give joy, until thou bid me joy, By pardoning Rutland my transgressing boy. Pleads he in earnest? look upon his face. His eyes do drop no tears, his prayers are in jest, His words come from his month, ours from our breast, He prays but faintly, and would be denied, We pray with heart and soul, and all beside, His weary joints would gladly rise I know, Our knees still kneel till to the ground they grow, His prayers are full of false hypocrisy, Ours of true and deep integrity, Our prayers do out pray his, then let them have That mercy which true prayer ought to have. Nay, do not say, stand up; Say Pardon first, and afterwards, stand up, And if I were thy nurse thy tonge to teach, Pardon should be the first word of thy speech: I never longed to hear a word till now, Say pardon King, let pity teach thee how, The word is short, but not so short as sweet, No word Like pardon for Kings mouths so meet. Dost thou teach pardon pardon to destroy? Ah my Sour husband, my hardhearted Lord! That sets the word it self against the word: Speak pardon as 'tis currant in our land, The chopping French we do not understand, Thine eye begins to speak, set thy tongue there: Or in thy piteous heart plant thou thine ear, That hearing how our plaints and prayers do pierce, Pity may move thee pardon to rehearse. I do not sue to stand. Pardon is all the suit I have in hand. O happy vantage of a kneeling knee, Yet am I sick for fear, speak it again, Twice saying pardon does not pardon twain, But makes one pardon strong. A God on earth thou art. Come my old son, I pray God make thee new.
