vndertaking—Heaven! you weepe:

And I could do so too, but that I know,

Theres more expected from the sonne and friend

Of him, whose fatall losse now shakes our natures,

Then sighs, or teares, (in which a village nurse [185]

Or cunning strumpet, when her knaue is hangd,

May ouercome vs.) We are men (young Lord)

Let vs not do like women. To the Court,

And there speake like your birth: wake sleeping justice,

Or dare the Axe. This is a way will sort [190]

With what you are. I call you not to that

I will shrinke from my selfe, I will deserue

Your thankes, or suffer with you—O how bravely

That sudden fire of anger shewes in you!

Give fuell to it, since you are on a shelfe, [195]

Of extreme danger suffer like your selfe.      

[SCENE II]

Du Croye. Your Lordship’s seated. May this meeting proue prosperous to vs, and to the generall good Of Burgundy.
