Q

White beards have armed their thin and hairless scalps against thy majesty;

A

Boys with woman’s voices, strive to speak big and clap their female joints stiff unwieldy arms against thy crown

Q

Eating the bitter bread of banishment

A

Whilst you have fed upon my signifies, disparked my parks, and felled my forest woods

17
Q

From my own windows torn my household coat, razed out my impresse leaving me no sign

A

To show the world I am a gentleman

18
Q

More welcome is the stroke of death to me

A

Than Bolingbroke to England

19
Q

It would beseem the Lord Northumberland

A

To say King Richard

20
Q

Take not, good cousin, further than you should

A

Lest you mistake; the heavens o’er our heads

21
Q

If not, I’ll use th’ advantage of my power

A

And lay the summers dust with showers of blood

22
Q

Be he the fire, I’ll be the yielding water

A

The age be his, whilst on earth I rain

23
Q

As doth the blushing discontented sun

A

From out her fiery portal of the east

24
Q

For well we know, no hand of blood and bone

A

Can gripe the sacred handle of our sceptre

25
And we are barren
And bereft of friends
26
Every stride he makes upon my land
Is dangerous treason
27
Ten thousand bloody crowns of mothers sons shall I’ll become
The flower of England’s face
28
And my large kingdom for a little grave
A little little grave an obscure grave
29
Down down I come, like glist’string Phaeton
Wanting the manager of unruly jades
30
In the base court? Base court
Where kings grow base, to come at traitors calls and do them grace
31
In the base court? Come down? Down court, down King!
For night owls shriek where mourning larks should sing
32
Go thou and, like an executioner cut off the heads of
Too fast growing sprays that look too lofty in our commonwealth
33
He that have suffered this disordered spring
Hath now himself met with the fall of leaf
34
Their fortunes both are weighted. In yours lords scale is nothing
But himself and a few vanities that make him light
35
But in the balance of great Bolingbroke
Besides himself are all the English peers and that odds he weighs King Richard down
