I had thought my Lord to have learned his health of you. No my good Lord, he hath for sooke the court. Broken his staff of office and dispersed The household of the King. Because your Lo: was proclaimed traitor, But he my Lo: is gone to Ravenspurgh, To offer service to the Duke of Hereford, And sent me over by Barckly to discover, What power the Duke of York had levied there, Then with directions to repair to Ravenspurgh. No my good Lo: for that is not forgotten, Which never I did remember, to my knowledge I never in my life did look on him. My gracious Lo: I tender you my service, Such as it is, being tender, raw, and young, Which elder days shall ripen and confirm To more approved service and desert. There stands the Castle by yond tuft of trees, Manned with 300. men as I have herd, And in it are the Lords of York Barkly and Seymer, None else of name and noble estimate. The Castle royally is manned my Lord. Against thy entrance. Yes (my good Lord,) It does contain a King, King Richard lies Within the limits of yond lime and ston , And with him are the Lord Aumerle, Lord Salisbury, Sir Stephen Sc oope, beside a clergy man Of holy reverence, who I cannot learn. My Lord, some two days since I saw the prince, And tou worser him of those triumphs held at Oxford. His answer was, he would unto the stews, And from the commonest creature pluck a glove, And wear it as a favour, and with that, He would unhorse the lustiest Challenger. The grand conspirator Abbot of Westminster With clog of conscience and sour melancholy Hath yielded up his body to the graven. But here is Carleil living, to abide Thy kingly doom, and sentence of his pride. Aumerle, thou liest, his honour is as true In this appeal as thou art all unjust, And that thou art so, there I throw my gage, To prove it on thee to the extremest point Of mortal breathing, cease it if thou darest.
