00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,719
Good morning. This is the BBC.
Here is the news

4
00:00:18,679 --> 00:00:20,800
Crowds gathered
in their thousands yesterday...

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,399
...to celebrate the coronation of His Majesty
King John of the House of Plantagenet

6
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:30,960
In his inaugural address, the King expressed
his great concern for the health of the nation...

7
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,960
...and promised to deliver an era
of wealth, prosperity and security

8
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,320
His Majesty was attended
by a large royal party...

9
00:00:38,759 --> 00:00:41,280
...including his niece,
the Lady Blanche of Castile...

10
00:00:41,359 --> 00:00:43,799
...and the Queen Mother,
who wore Chanel

11
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,799
The absence of the King's nephew,
Arthur of Bretagne...

12
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,880
...was highlighted by critics of the King...

13
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
...as a sign of increasing tensions
within the family

14
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,240
It is rumoured that Arthur,
with the aid of his mother, Lady Constance...

15
00:00:57,439 --> 00:01:00,520
...has sought the military support
of King Philip of France...

16
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,520
...to further pursue his claim
to the English throne

17
00:01:04,719 --> 00:01:07,120
This familial divide looks
to throw a shadow...

18
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,480
...over the beginning
of our new monarch's reign

19
00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:13,920
In other news, demonstrations
have been taking place...

20
00:01:14,079 --> 00:01:16,760
...at abbeys and other religious sites
across the country...

21
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,439
...in protest at His Majesty's increased...

22
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,680
Now, say, Chatillon
what would France with us?

23
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:59,080
Thus, after greeting, speaks the King of France
in my behaviour to the majesty...

24
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,080
...the borrowed majesty, of England here

25
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,240
A strange beginning, "borrowed majesty"

26
00:03:04,759 --> 00:03:07,000
Silence, good mother. Hear the embassy

27
00:03:07,319 --> 00:03:12,639
Philip of France, in right and true behalf
of thy deceased brother Geoffrey's son...

28
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:18,400
...Arthur Plantagenet, lays most lawful claim
to this fair island and the territories...

29
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:21,520
...to Ireland, Poitiers, Anjou, Touraine, Maine...

30
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:26,319
...desiring thee to lay aside the sword
which sways usurpingly these several titles...

31
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,960
...and put these same into young Arthur's hand,
thy nephew and right royal sovereign

32
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,400
What follows if we disallow of this?

33
00:03:34,599 --> 00:03:38,599
The proud control of fierce and bloody war,
to enforce these rights so forcibly withheld

34
00:03:40,639 --> 00:03:46,479
Here have we war for war and blood for blood,
controlment for controlment. So answer France

35
00:03:46,719 --> 00:03:50,759
Then take my king's defiance from my mouth,
the farthest limit of my embassy

36
00:03:50,919 --> 00:03:53,319
Bear mine to him, and so depart in peace

37
00:03:54,479 --> 00:03:57,039
Be thou as lightning in the eyes of France

38
00:03:57,319 --> 00:03:59,319
For ere thou canst report I will be there...

39
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,879
...the thunder of my cannon
shall be heard. So hence!

40
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,159
Be thou the trumpet of our wrath
and sullen presage of your own decay

41
00:04:08,919 --> 00:04:12,159
An honourable conduct let him have.
Pembroke, look to it

42
00:04:14,479 --> 00:04:16,160
Farewell, Chatillon

43
00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:28,199
What now, my son! Have I not ever said
how that ambitious Constance would not cease...

44
00:04:28,519 --> 00:04:32,879
...till she had kindled France, and all the world,
upon the right and party of her son?

45
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:40,000
This might have been prevented and made whole
with very easy arguments of love...

46
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:44,399
...which now the manage of two kingdoms
must with fearful bloody issue arbitrate

47
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,160
Our strong possession and our right for us

48
00:04:47,439 --> 00:04:50,240
Your strong possession
much more than your right...

49
00:04:50,439 --> 00:04:52,680
...or else it must go wrong
with you and me

50
00:04:54,639 --> 00:04:57,439
So much my conscience whispers
in your ear...

51
00:04:57,879 --> 00:05:00,680
...which none but heaven
and you and I shall hear

52
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:06,519
My liege, here is the strangest controversy
come from country to be judged by you...

53
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,800
- ...that e'er I heard. Shall I produce the men?
- Let them approach

54
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,319
Our abbeys and our priories shall pay
this expedition's charge

55
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:16,000
What men are you?

56
00:05:16,199 --> 00:05:19,680
Your faithful subject I, a gentleman
born in Northamptonshire...

57
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,160
...and eldest son, as I suppose,
to Robert Faulconbridge

58
00:05:23,519 --> 00:05:26,879
A soldier, by the honour-giving hand
of Coeur-de-lion knighted in the field

59
00:05:27,079 --> 00:05:30,879
- What art thou?
- The son and heir to that same Faulconbridge

60
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,759
Is that the elder, and art thou the heir?

61
00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:37,720
You came not of one mother then, it seems

62
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:42,160
Most certain of one mother, mighty king.
That is well known. And, as I think, one father

63
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,120
But for the certain knowledge of that truth
I put you o'er to heaven and to my mother

64
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:48,399
Of that I doubt, as all men's children may

65
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:49,879
Out on thee, rude man!

66
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,120
Thou dost shame thy mother
and wound her honour with this diffidence

67
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:58,040
I, madam? No, I have no reason for it.
That is my brother's plea and none of mine

68
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,279
The which if he can prove, a' pops me out
at least from fair five hundred pound a year

69
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,839
Heaven guard my mother's honour and my land!

70
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,959
A good blunt fellow. Why, being younger born,
doth he lay claim to thine inheritance?

71
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,240
I know not why, except to get the land.
But once he slandered me with bastardy

72
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,600
But whether I be as true begot or no,
that still I lay upon my mother's head

73
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,600
But that I am as well begot, my liege...

74
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,480
Fair fall the bones that took the pains for me!

75
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,279
Compare our faces and be judge yourself

76
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:33,120
If old Sir Robert did beget us both
and were our father and this son like him...

77
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:38,160
...O, old Sir Robert, father, on my knee
I give heaven thanks I was not like to thee

78
00:06:38,439 --> 00:06:41,399
Why, what a madcap hath heaven lent us here!

79
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:46,600
He hath a trick of Coeur-de-lion's face,
the accent of his tongue affecteth him

80
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,519
Do you not read some tokens of my son
in the large composition of this man?

81
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:55,680
Mine eye hath well examined his parts
and finds them perfect Richard

82
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,439
Sirrah, speak.

83
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,040
What doth move you to claim
your brother's land?

84
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:05,680
My gracious liege, when that my father lived,
your brother did employ my father much

85
00:07:05,879 --> 00:07:09,759
Well, sir, by this you cannot get my land.
Your tale must be how he employed my mother

86
00:07:10,759 --> 00:07:13,560
And once dispatched him in an embassy
to Germany...

87
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,680
... there with the emperor
to treat of high affairs touching that time

88
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:25,680
The advantage of his absence took the king
and in the meantime sojourned at my father's

89
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:30,399
Where how he did prevail I shame to speak,
but truth is truth

90
00:07:30,879 --> 00:07:34,160
Large lengths of seas and shores
between my mother and my father lay...

91
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:39,639
...as I have heard my father speak himself,
when this same lusty gentleman was got

92
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,000
Upon his death-bed he by will bequeathed
his lands to me...

93
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,399
...and took it on his death
that this my mother's son was none of his

94
00:07:47,639 --> 00:07:52,279
And if he were, he came into the world
full fourteen weeks before the course of time

95
00:07:54,319 --> 00:08:00,079
Then, good my liege, let me have what is mine,
my father's lands, as was my father's will

96
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:02,639
Sirrah, your brother is legitimate

97
00:08:03,319 --> 00:08:08,879
Your father's wife did after wedlock bear him,
and if she did play false, the fault was hers

98
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:13,519
Which fault lies on the hazards of all husbands
that marry wives

99
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,319
Tell me, how if my brother,
who, as you say, took pains to get this son...

100
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,959
...had of your father claimed this son for his?

101
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,720
In sooth, good friend,
your father might have kept...

102
00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:27,079
...this calf bred from his cow
from all the world

103
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,439
In sooth he might.

104
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,560
Then, if he were my brother's,
my brother might not claim him

105
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:33,879
Nor your father, being none of his, refuse him.

106
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,799
This concludes...

107
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:39,600
...my mother's son did get your father's heir...

108
00:08:40,639 --> 00:08:42,919
...your father's heir must have
your father's land

109
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,840
Shall then my father's will be of no force
to dispossess that child which is not his?

110
00:08:47,919 --> 00:08:51,440
Of no more force to dispossess me, sir,
than was his will to get me, as I think

111
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:56,399
Whether hadst thou rather be a Faulconbridge
and like thy brother, to enjoy thy land...

112
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:03,559
...or the reputed son of Coeur-de-lion,
lord of thy presence and no land beside?

113
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:10,480
Madam, an if my brother had my shape,
and I had his, Sir Robert's his, like him...

114
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,759
...and if my legs were two such riding-rods,
my arms such eel-skins stuffed...

115
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,000
...my face so thin that in mine ear
I durst not stick a rose...

116
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,679
...lest men should say
"Look, where three-farthings goes!"

117
00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:27,120
And, to his shape, were heir to all this land,
would I might never stir from off this place...

118
00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:31,919
...I would give it every foot to have this face.
I would not be Sir Nob in any case

119
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,600
I like thee well.

120
00:09:34,039 --> 00:09:37,440
Wilt thou forsake thy fortune,
bequeath thy land to him and follow me?

121
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,799
I am a soldier and am now bound to France

122
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,120
Brother, take you my land,
I'll take my chance

123
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:52,080
Your face hath got five hundred pound a year,
yet sell your face for five pence and 'tis dear

124
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,840
- Madam, I'll follow you unto the death
- The very spirit of Plantagenet!

125
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,519
- What is thy name?
- Philip, my liege, so is my name begun

126
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,960
Philip, good old Sir Robert's wife's eldest son

127
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,279
From henceforth
bear his name whose form thou bearest

128
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,559
Kneel thou down Philip...

129
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,720
...but rise more great.

130
00:10:18,799 --> 00:10:22,519
Arise Sir Richard, and Plantagenet

131
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,279
I am thy grandam, Richard. Call me so

132
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:34,919
Madam, by chance but not by truth.
What though?

133
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,679
Something about, a little from the right,
in at the window, or else o'er the hatch

134
00:10:38,759 --> 00:10:43,639
Who dares not stir by day must walk by night,
and have is have, however men do catch

135
00:10:43,919 --> 00:10:48,519
Near or far off, well won is still well shot,
and I am I, howe'er I was begot

136
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,559
Come, madam, and come, Richard,
we must speed...

137
00:10:53,159 --> 00:10:56,799
...for France, for France,
for it is more than need

138
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,279
Brother, adieu. Good fortune come to thee,
for thou wast got in the way of honesty

139
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:14,080
A foot of honour better than I was,
but many a many foot of land the worse

140
00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:20,600
Well, now can I make any Joan a lady

141
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,600
"Good den, Sir Richard!"
"God-a-mercy, fellow!"

142
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:32,879
And if his name be George, I'll call him Peter,
for new-made honour doth forget men's names

143
00:11:33,039 --> 00:11:36,480
'Tis too respective and too sociable
for your conversion

144
00:11:36,919 --> 00:11:42,120
This is worshipful society
and fits the mounting spirit like myself

145
00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:46,919
For he is but a bastard to the time
that doth not smack of observation

146
00:11:48,039 --> 00:11:49,600
And so am I, whether I smack or no

147
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:54,440
And not alone in habit and device,
exterior form, outward accoutrement...

148
00:11:54,639 --> 00:12:01,919
...but from the inward motion to deliver
sweet, sweet, sweet poison from the age's tooth

149
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:08,240
Which, though I will not practise to deceive,
yet, to avoid deceit, I mean to learn

150
00:12:09,159 --> 00:12:12,279
For it shall strew the footsteps of my rising

151
00:12:12,799 --> 00:12:16,879
O, me, it is my mother. How now, good lady!
What brings you here to court so hastily?

152
00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:21,759
Where is that slave, thy brother? Where is he,
that holds in chase mine honour up and down?

153
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,759
My brother Robert? Old Sir Robert's son?

154
00:12:25,159 --> 00:12:27,759
Colbrand the giant, that same mighty man?

155
00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:32,519
- Is it Sir Robert's son that you seek so?
- Sir Robert's son! Ay, thou unreverend boy...

156
00:12:32,759 --> 00:12:36,039
...Sir Robert's son.
Why scorn'st thou at Sir Robert?

157
00:12:36,159 --> 00:12:38,360
He is Sir Robert's son, and so art thou

158
00:12:38,519 --> 00:12:42,879
Madam, I was not old Sir Robert's son

159
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:49,120
Sir Robert might have eat his part in me
upon Good Friday and ne'er broke his fast

160
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,759
Sir Robert could do well, marry, to confess,
could he get me?

161
00:12:55,399 --> 00:12:57,159
Sir Robert could not do it

162
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,000
We know his handiwork.

163
00:12:59,399 --> 00:13:02,200
Therefore, good mother,
to whom am I beholding for these limbs?

164
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,320
Hast thou conspired with thy brother too,
that for thine own gain...

165
00:13:05,399 --> 00:13:06,840
...shouldst defend mine honour?

166
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,600
What means this scorn,
thou most untoward knave?

167
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,639
I have disclaimed Sir Robert and my land.

168
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,159
Legitimation, name and all is gone

169
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,399
Then, good my mother,
let me know my father

170
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,720
Some proper man, I hope.

171
00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:28,320
Who was it, mother?

172
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,919
Hast thou denied thyself a Faulconbridge?

173
00:13:33,879 --> 00:13:35,919
As faithfully as I deny the devil

174
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,840
King Richard Coeur-de-lion was thy father

175
00:13:47,879 --> 00:13:55,080
By long and vehement suit I was seduced
to make room for him in my husband's bed

176
00:13:56,879 --> 00:13:59,120
Heaven lay not my transgression to my charge!

177
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,159
Thou art the issue of my dear offence...

178
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,320
...which was so strongly urged
past my defence

179
00:14:10,799 --> 00:14:13,559
Some sins do bear their privilege on earth.

180
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,440
And so doth yours

181
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,279
Your fault was not your folly

182
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:24,399
Needs must you lay your heart at his dispose,
subjected tribute to commanding love...

183
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:26,679
...against whose fury and unmatched force...

184
00:14:26,879 --> 00:14:29,240
...the aweless lion could not wage the fight...

185
00:14:29,879 --> 00:14:32,519
...nor keep his princely heart
from Richard's hand

186
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,799
He that perforce robs lions of their hearts
may easily take a woman's

187
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,759
Come, lady

188
00:14:43,799 --> 00:14:45,399
I will show thee to my kin...

189
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:51,440
...and they shall say, when Richard me begot,
if thou hadst said him nay, it had been sin

190
00:14:53,279 --> 00:14:54,799
Who says it was, he lies

191
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,840
I say 'twas not

192
00:16:01,519 --> 00:16:05,720
Before Angiers well met, brave Austria

193
00:16:06,279 --> 00:16:09,120
Arthur, that great forerunner of thy blood...

194
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,960
...Richard, that robbed the lion of his heart...

195
00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:18,480
...and fought the holy wars in Palestine,
by this brave duke came early to his grave

196
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:24,360
And for amends to his posterity,
at our importance hither is he come...

197
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,440
...to spread his colours, boy, in thy behalf...

198
00:16:27,639 --> 00:16:33,279
...and to rebuke the usurpation
of thy unnatural uncle, English John

199
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,519
Embrace him, love him,
give him welcome hither

200
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,360
God shall forgive you
Coeur-de-lion's death...

201
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,679
...the rather that you give
his offspring life...

202
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,559
...shadowing their right
under your wings of war

203
00:16:53,279 --> 00:16:57,879
I give you welcome with a powerless hand,
but with a heart full of unstained love

204
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,399
Welcome before the gates of Angiers, Duke

205
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,599
A noble boy! Who would not do thee right?

206
00:17:05,559 --> 00:17:11,119
Upon thy cheek lay I this zealous kiss,
as seal to this indenture of my love

207
00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:15,279
That to my home I will no more return...

208
00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:18,559
...till Angiers and the right
thou hast in France...

209
00:17:19,319 --> 00:17:22,640
...together with that pale,
that white-faced shore...

210
00:17:22,839 --> 00:17:25,680
...whose foot spurns back
the ocean's roaring tides...

211
00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:28,319
...and coops from other lands
her islanders

212
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,400
Even till that England,
hedged in with the main...

213
00:17:32,759 --> 00:17:38,720
...that water-walled bulwark, still secure
and confident from foreign purposes...

214
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:44,759
...even till that utmost corner of the west
salute thee for her king...

215
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:51,759
...till then, fair boy,
will I not think of home, but follow arms

216
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,960
O, take his mother's thanks,
a widow's thanks...

217
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,160
...till your strong hand shall help
to give him strength...

218
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,000
...to make a more requital to your love

219
00:18:03,279 --> 00:18:06,079
The peace of heaven is theirs
that lift their swords...

220
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,519
...in such a just and charitable war

221
00:18:09,839 --> 00:18:11,519
Well then, to work.

222
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,400
Our cannon shall be bent
against the brows of this resisting town

223
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,440
Call for our chiefest men of discipline,
to cull the plots of best advantages

224
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,720
We'll lay before this town our royal bones...

225
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,720
...wade to the market-place
in Frenchmen's blood...

226
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,359
...but we will make it
subject to this boy

227
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,640
Stay for an answer to your embassy...

228
00:18:31,759 --> 00:18:35,160
...lest unadvised
you stain your swords with blood

229
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:42,039
My Lord Chatillon may from England bring
that right in peace which here we urge in war

230
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:47,880
And then we shall repent each drop of blood
that hot rash haste so indirectly shed

231
00:18:49,039 --> 00:18:53,440
A wonder, lady! Lo, upon thy wish,
our messenger Chatillon is arrived

232
00:18:54,240 --> 00:19:00,079
What England says, say briefly, gentle lord.
We coldly pause for thee, Chatillon, speak

233
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,359
Then turn your forces from this paltry siege
and stir them up against a mightier task

234
00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:08,720
England, impatient of your just demands,
hath put himself in arms

235
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,960
The adverse winds,
whose leisure I have stayed...

236
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:15,079
...have given him time
to land his legions all as soon as I

237
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,359
His marches are expedient to this town,
his forces strong, his soldiers confident

238
00:19:19,559 --> 00:19:24,839
With him along is come the mother-queen,
an Ate, stirring him to blood and strife

239
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,079
With her her niece,
the Lady Blanche of Spain...

240
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,400
...with them a bastard of the king's deceased...

241
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,279
...and all the unsettled humours of the land,
rash, inconsiderate, fiery voluntaries...

242
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:36,759
...with ladies' faces
and fierce dragons' spleens...

243
00:19:36,839 --> 00:19:39,160
...have sold their fortunes
at their native homes...

244
00:19:39,279 --> 00:19:41,720
...bearing their birthrights proudly
on their backs...

245
00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:43,759
...to make hazard of new fortunes here

246
00:19:44,599 --> 00:19:48,519
In brief, a braver choice
of dauntless spirits...

247
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,799
...than now the English bottoms
have waft o'er...

248
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,680
...did ne'er float upon the swelling tide,
to do offence and scathe in Christendom

249
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,839
The interruption of their churlish drums...

250
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,119
...cuts off more circumstance.
They are at hand, to parley or to fight.

251
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,240
Therefore prepare

252
00:20:02,519 --> 00:20:05,880
How much unlooked for is this expedition!

253
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:10,920
By how much unexpected, by so much
we must awake endeavour for defence

254
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,880
For courage mounteth with occasion.

255
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,440
Let them be welcome then,
we are prepared

256
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:35,160
Peace be to France, if France in peace permit
our just and lineal entrance to our own

257
00:21:36,079 --> 00:21:38,880
If not, bleed France,
and peace ascend to heaven...

258
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,920
...whiles we, God's wrathful agent...

259
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,960
...do correct their proud contempt
that beats His peace to heaven

260
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,359
Peace be to England, if that war return
from France to England...

261
00:21:49,799 --> 00:21:51,200
...there to live in peace

262
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:59,000
England we love, and for that England's sake
with burden of our armour here we sweat

263
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,319
This toil of ours should be a work of thine.
But thou from loving England art so far...

264
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,480
...that thou hast under-wrought his lawful king,
cut off the sequence of posterity...

265
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:15,559
...out-faced infant state and done a rape
upon the maiden virtue of the crown

266
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,039
Look here upon thy brother Geoffrey's face

267
00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:23,480
These eyes, these brows,
were moulded out of his

268
00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:28,480
This little abstract doth contain that large
which died in Geoffrey

269
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,559
And the hand of time
shall draw this brief into as huge a volume

270
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,440
That Geoffrey was thy elder brother born,
and this his son

271
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:43,519
England was Geoffrey's right
and this is Geoffrey's, in the name of God

272
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:46,440
How comes it then
that thou art called a king...

273
00:22:46,559 --> 00:22:48,759
...when living blood
doth in these temples beat...

274
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,359
...which owe the crown
that thou o'ermasterest?

275
00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:54,759
From whom hast thou
this great commission, France...

276
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:56,759
...to draw my answer from thy articles?

277
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,200
From that supernal judge,
that stirs good thoughts...

278
00:23:01,319 --> 00:23:03,079
...in any breast of strong authority...

279
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,960
...to look into the blots and stains of right

280
00:23:07,039 --> 00:23:09,039
That judge hath made me guardian to this boy

281
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:15,039
Under whose warrant I impeach thy wrong
and by whose help I mean to chastise it

282
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:21,519
- Alack, thou dost usurp authority
- Excuse, it is to beat usurping down

283
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:28,440
- Who is it thou dost call usurper, France?
- Let me make answer. Thy usurping son

284
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,480
Out, insolent! Thy bastard shall be king...

285
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,480
...that thou mayst be a queen,
and check the world

286
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,200
My bed was ever to thy son as true
as thine was to thy husband

287
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,799
And this boy liker in feature...

288
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,519
...to his father Geoffrey
than thou and John in manners...

289
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:49,960
...being as like as rain to water,
or devil to his dam

290
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:56,200
My boy a bastard! By my soul, I think
his father never was so true begot

291
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,200
It cannot be, if thou wert his mother

292
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,559
There's a good mother, boy,
that blots thy father

293
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,839
There's a good grandam, boy,
that would blot thee

294
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,200
- Peace!
- Hear the crier

295
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,759
What the devil art thou?

296
00:24:09,319 --> 00:24:13,039
One that will play the devil, sir, with you,
an a' may catch your hide and you alone

297
00:24:13,839 --> 00:24:19,279
You are the hare of whom the proverb goes,
whose valour plucks dead lions by the beard

298
00:24:19,599 --> 00:24:21,680
I'll smoke your skin-coat,
an I catch you right.

299
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,279
Sirrah, look to't. I' faith, I will, i' faith

300
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:30,559
O, well did he become the lion's robe
that did disrobe the lion of that robe!

301
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,759
It lies as sightly on the back of him
as great Hercules' shows upon an ass

302
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,680
But, ass, I'll take that burthen
from your back...

303
00:24:38,799 --> 00:24:41,000
...or lay on that shall make
your shoulders crack

304
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:47,680
What craker is this same that deafs our ears
with this abundance of superfluous breath?

305
00:24:47,839 --> 00:24:53,519
- Lewis, determine what we shall do straight
- Women and fools, break off your conference

306
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,519
King John, this is the very sum of all

307
00:25:00,759 --> 00:25:06,319
England and Ireland, Anjou, Touraine, Maine,
in right of Arthur do I claim of thee

308
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:14,000
- Wilt thou resign them and lay down thy arms?
- My life as soon. I do defy thee, France

309
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:21,440
Arthur of Bretagne, yield thee to my hand

310
00:25:22,839 --> 00:25:27,000
And out of my dear love I'll give thee more
than e'er the coward hand of France can win

311
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:29,519
Submit thee, boy

312
00:25:29,799 --> 00:25:34,680
- Come to thy grandam, child
- Do, child, go to it grandam, child

313
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:40,599
Give grandam kingdom, and it grandam will
give it a plum, a cherry, and a fig

314
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,160
- There's a good grandam
- Good my mother, peace!

315
00:25:44,759 --> 00:25:49,799
I would that I were low laid in my grave.
I am not worth this coil that's made for me

316
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,279
His mother shames him so,
poor boy, he weeps

317
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,119
Now shame upon you,
whether she does or no

318
00:25:56,319 --> 00:25:59,720
His grandam's wrongs,
and not his mother's shames...

319
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,599
...draws those heaven-moving pearls
from his poor eyes...

320
00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:05,119
...which heaven shall take in nature of a fee

321
00:26:05,279 --> 00:26:09,039
Ay, with these crystal beads
heaven shall be bribed...

322
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,759
...to do him justice and revenge on you

323
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,440
Thou monstrous slanderer
of heaven and earth!

324
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,440
Thou monstrous injurer of heaven and earth!
Call not me slanderer

325
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,400
Thou and thine usurp the dominations...

326
00:26:25,519 --> 00:26:28,720
...royalties and rights of this oppressed boy

327
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:35,160
This is thy eldest son's son,
infortunate in nothing but in thee

328
00:26:36,039 --> 00:26:38,599
Thy sins are visited in this poor child...

329
00:26:38,839 --> 00:26:42,319
...being but the second generation
removed from thy sin-conceiving womb

330
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:43,519
Bedlam, have done!

331
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:48,160
I have but this to say,
that he is not only plagued for her sin...

332
00:26:48,559 --> 00:26:52,799
...but God hath made her sin and her
the plague on this removed issue

333
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,920
Plague for her and with her plague,
her sin his injury...

334
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,279
...her injury the beadle to her sin

335
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:05,400
All punished in the person of this child,
and all for her, a plague upon her!

336
00:27:05,559 --> 00:27:09,279
Peace, lady! Pause, or be more temperate

337
00:27:10,279 --> 00:27:14,519
It ill beseems this presence to cry aim
to these ill-tuned repetitions

338
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,279
Some trumpet summon hither to the walls
these men of Angiers

339
00:27:21,079 --> 00:27:24,799
Let us hear them speak
whose title they admit, Arthur's or John's

340
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,200
Who is it that hath warned us to the walls?

341
00:27:40,039 --> 00:27:41,880
'Tis France, for England

342
00:27:42,079 --> 00:27:47,759
England, for itself.
You men of Angiers, and my loving subjects...

343
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,839
You loving men of Angiers,
Arthur's subjects...

344
00:27:52,319 --> 00:27:54,880
...our trumpet called you
to this gentle parle...

345
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,799
For our advantage. Therefore hear us first

346
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,839
These flags of France, that are advanced here
before the eye and prospect of your town...

347
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,720
...have hither marched to your endamagement

348
00:28:13,519 --> 00:28:17,799
The cannons have their bowels full of wrath,
and ready mounted are they...

349
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,200
...to spit forth their iron indignation
'gainst your walls

350
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:27,440
All preparation for a bloody siege,
all merciless proceeding by these French...

351
00:28:27,599 --> 00:28:30,359
...confronts your city's eyes,
your winking gates

352
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:34,119
And but for our approach
those sleeping stones...

353
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,599
...that as a waist doth girdle you about...

354
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:41,640
...by the compulsion of their ordinance
by this time from their fixed beds of lime...

355
00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:47,480
...had been dishabited, and wide havoc made
for bloody power to rush upon your peace

356
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,480
But on the sight of us your lawful king...

357
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,640
...who painfully
with much expedient march...

358
00:28:55,799 --> 00:28:59,079
...have brought a countercheck
before your gates...

359
00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:02,880
...to save unscratched
your city's threatened cheeks...

360
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:07,079
...behold, the French amazed
vouchsafe a parle

361
00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:12,440
And now, instead of bullets wrapped in fire,
to make a shaking fever in your walls...

362
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,319
...they shoot but calm words
folded up in smoke...

363
00:29:16,039 --> 00:29:18,440
...to make a faithless error in your ears

364
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:23,960
Which trust accordingly, kind citizens...

365
00:29:24,119 --> 00:29:28,480
...and let us in, your king,
whose laboured spirits...

366
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:34,319
...forwearied in this action of swift speed,
crave harbourage within your city walls

367
00:29:39,359 --> 00:29:42,839
When I have said, make answer to us both

368
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,000
Lo, in this right hand...

369
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,839
...whose protection is most divinely
vowed upon the right of him it holds...

370
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,880
...stands young Plantagenet,
son to the elder brother...

371
00:29:56,079 --> 00:30:00,440
...of this man, and king o'er him
and all that he enjoys

372
00:30:01,839 --> 00:30:05,720
For this down-trodden equity, we tread...

373
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,519
...in warlike march
these greens before your town...

374
00:30:09,559 --> 00:30:12,680
...being no further enemy to you
than the constraint of hospitable zeal...

375
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:17,400
...in the relief of this oppressed child
religiously provokes

376
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:23,200
Be pleased then to pay that duty
which you truly owe...

377
00:30:23,359 --> 00:30:27,039
...to him that owes it,
namely this young prince

378
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:34,680
Then our arms, like to a muzzled bear,
save in aspect, hath all offence sealed up

379
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:40,119
Our cannons' malice vainly shall be spent
against the invulnerable clouds of heaven

380
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,880
And with a blessed and unvexed retire...

381
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,200
...with unhacked swords
and helmets all unbruised...

382
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,119
...we will bear home that lusty blood again...

383
00:30:49,279 --> 00:30:53,200
...which here we came
to spout against your town...

384
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:59,440
...and leave your children,
wives and you in peace

385
00:31:02,079 --> 00:31:06,759
But if you fondly pass our proffered offer...

386
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,640
...'tis not the roundure
of your old-faced walls...

387
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:12,079
...can hide you
from our messengers of war...

388
00:31:12,319 --> 00:31:14,559
...though all these English
and their discipline...

389
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,640
...were harboured
in their rude circumference

390
00:31:17,319 --> 00:31:22,680
Then tell us, shall your city call us lord,
in that behalf which we have challenged it?

391
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:29,000
Or shall we give the signal to our rage
and stalk in blood to our possession?

392
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,720
In brief, we are
the king of England's subjects

393
00:31:33,839 --> 00:31:37,000
For him, and in his right, we hold this town

394
00:31:39,559 --> 00:31:42,640
Acknowledge then the king, and let me in

395
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:44,559
That can we not.

396
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,720
But he that proves the king,
to him will we prove loyal

397
00:31:49,839 --> 00:31:52,839
Till that time have we rammed up
our gates against the world

398
00:31:53,039 --> 00:31:56,000
Doth not the crown of England prove the king?

399
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,400
And if not that, I bring you witnesses...

400
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,519
...twice fifteen thousand hearts
of England's breed...

401
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,079
- Bastards, and else
- ...to verify our title with their lives

402
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,880
- As many and as well-born bloods as those...
- Some bastards too

403
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,359
Stand in his face to contradict his claim

404
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:19,200
Till you compound whose right is worthiest,
we for the worthiest hold the right from both

405
00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:26,119
Then God forgive the sin of all those souls
that to their everlasting residence...

406
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,720
...before the dew of evening fall,
shall fleet...

407
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,400
...in dreadful trial of our kingdom's king

408
00:32:31,599 --> 00:32:35,240
Amen, amen!
Mount, chevaliers! To arms!

409
00:32:35,359 --> 00:32:37,200
Saint George, that swinged the dragon...

410
00:32:37,279 --> 00:32:42,240
...and e'er since sits on his horseback
at mine hostess' door, teach us some fence!

411
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,960
Sirrah, were I at home, at your den, sirrah,
with your lioness...

412
00:32:47,279 --> 00:32:51,480
...I would set an ox-head to your lion's hide,
and make a monster of you

413
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:56,160
- Peace! No more
- O, tremble, for you hear the lion roar

414
00:32:56,319 --> 00:33:00,200
Up higher to the plain, where we'll set forth
in best appointment all our regiments

415
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:02,319
Speed then, to take advantage of the field

416
00:33:02,519 --> 00:33:06,119
It shall be so, and at the other hill
command the rest to stand

417
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,400
God and our right!

418
00:33:13,519 --> 00:33:18,079
People of Angiers, open wide your gates...

419
00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:21,519
...and let young Arthur, Duke of Bretagne, in...

420
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,400
...who by the hand of France this day...

421
00:33:24,519 --> 00:33:28,759
...shall make much work for tears
in many an English mother...

422
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:33,240
...whose sons will lie scattered
on the bleeding ground...

423
00:33:33,359 --> 00:33:36,039
...coldly embracing the discoloured earth

424
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:42,640
And victory, with little loss, shall play
upon the dancing banners of the French...

425
00:33:44,759 --> 00:33:48,839
...who are at hand, triumphantly displayed,
to enter conquerors...

426
00:33:49,119 --> 00:33:54,480
...and to proclaim
Arthur of Bretagne England's king and yours

427
00:33:55,759 --> 00:34:00,039
Rejoice, people of Angiers, ring your bells

428
00:34:00,319 --> 00:34:03,599
King John, your king and England's,
doth approach...

429
00:34:03,839 --> 00:34:06,759
...commander of this hot malicious day

430
00:34:07,359 --> 00:34:10,400
Their armours, that march hence
so silver-bright...

431
00:34:10,559 --> 00:34:14,360
...will now return all gilt
with Frenchmen's blood

432
00:34:14,639 --> 00:34:18,719
Open your gates and give the victors way

433
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:21,719
Both are alike, and both alike we like

434
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,800
One must prove greatest.
While they weigh so even...

435
00:34:25,079 --> 00:34:27,599
...we hold our town for neither, yet for both

436
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,480
France, hast thou yet more blood
to cast away?

437
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,800
Say, shall the current of our right run on?

438
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,159
England, thou hast not saved
one drop of blood...

439
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,119
...in this hot trial, more than we of France

440
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,559
Rather, lost more.

441
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,639
And by this hand I swear...

442
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:31,880
...that here holds up his right,
we'll put thee down

443
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:51,880
Ha, majesty! How high thy glory towers...

444
00:35:52,079 --> 00:35:55,599
...when the rich blood of kings is set on fire!

445
00:35:56,039 --> 00:35:59,239
O, now doth death line
his dead chaps with steel...

446
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,760
...the swords of soldiers
are his teeth, his fangs

447
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:10,119
And now he feasts, mousing the flesh of men,
in undetermined differences of kings

448
00:36:39,199 --> 00:36:41,519
Whose party do the townsmen yet admit?

449
00:36:42,039 --> 00:36:46,320
Speak, citizens, for England. Who's your king?

450
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,599
The king of England, when we know the king

451
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:53,159
Know him in us, that here hold up his right

452
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:58,199
In us, that are our own great deputy
and bear possession of our person here...

453
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,400
...lord of our presence, Angiers, and of you

454
00:37:01,639 --> 00:37:04,679
A greater power than we denies all this

455
00:37:05,039 --> 00:37:10,400
And till it be undoubted, we do lock
our former scruple in our strong-barred gates

456
00:37:10,599 --> 00:37:12,800
Kinged of our fears,
until our fears, resolved...

457
00:37:13,119 --> 00:37:16,000
...be by some certain king purged
and deposed

458
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:19,400
By heaven, these scroyles
of Angiers flout you, kings...

459
00:37:19,679 --> 00:37:21,719
...and stand securely on their battlements...

460
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,159
...as in a theatre,
whence they gape and point...

461
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,679
...at your industrious scenes
and acts of death

462
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,480
Your royal presences be ruled by me

463
00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:33,599
Do like the mutines of Jerusalem

464
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:40,400
Be friends awhile and both conjointly bend
your sharpest deeds of malice on this town

465
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,079
By east and west let France
and England mount...

466
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,719
...their battering cannon
charged to the mouths...

467
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,880
...till their soul-fearing clamours
have brawled down...

468
00:37:50,039 --> 00:37:52,519
...the flinty ribs of this contemptuous city

469
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,000
I'd play incessantly upon these jades...

470
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,400
...even till unfenced desolation
leave them as naked as the vulgar air

471
00:37:59,599 --> 00:38:04,440
That done, dissever your united strengths,
and part your mingled colours once again

472
00:38:04,679 --> 00:38:07,800
Turn face to face and bloody point to point

473
00:38:08,519 --> 00:38:13,239
Then, in a moment, fortune shall cull forth
out of one side her happy minion...

474
00:38:13,639 --> 00:38:18,119
...to whom in favour she shall give the day,
and kiss him with a glorious victory

475
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,119
How like you this wild counsel,
mighty states?

476
00:38:22,519 --> 00:38:24,239
Smacks it not something of the policy?

477
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,719
Now, by the sky that hangs above our heads,
I like it well

478
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:32,159
France, shall we knit our powers
and lay this Angiers even to the ground...

479
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,320
...then after fight who shall be king of it?

480
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,519
An if thou hast the mettle of a king...

481
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,639
...being wronged as we are
by this peevish town...

482
00:38:40,159 --> 00:38:44,840
...turn thou the mouth of thy artillery,
as we will ours, against these saucy walls

483
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,440
And when that we have dashed them
to the ground...

484
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:52,480
...why then defy each other and pell-mell
make work upon ourselves, for heaven or hell

485
00:38:52,679 --> 00:38:55,199
Let it be so. Say, where will you assault?

486
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,119
We from the west will send destruction
into this city's bosom

487
00:38:58,280 --> 00:38:59,840
I from the north

488
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:05,199
Our thunder from the south
shall rain their drift of bullets on this town

489
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,360
O, prudent discipline! From north to south

490
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,599
Austria and France shoot
in each other's mouth

491
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,800
I'll stir them to it. Come, away, away!

492
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,719
Hear me, great kings!

493
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:17,039
Vouchsafe awhile to stay...

494
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,480
...and I shall show you peace
and fair-faced league

495
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,880
Win you this city without stroke or wound

496
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,360
Rescue those breathing lives
to die in beds...

497
00:39:27,639 --> 00:39:30,199
...that here come sacrifices for the field

498
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,039
Persever not, but hear me, mighty kings

499
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,920
Speak on with favour, we are bent to hear

500
00:39:46,639 --> 00:39:51,599
That daughter there of Spain,
the Lady Blanche, is niece to England

501
00:39:54,519 --> 00:39:57,679
Look upon the years
of Lewis the Dauphin and that lovely maid

502
00:39:59,039 --> 00:40:03,039
If lusty love should go in quest of beauty...

503
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,679
...where should he find it
fairer than in Blanche?

504
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,960
If zealous love should go
in search of virtue...

505
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,760
...where should he find it purer
than in Blanche?

506
00:40:14,639 --> 00:40:18,599
If love ambitious sought a match of birth...

507
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,599
...whose veins bound richer blood
than Lady Blanche?

508
00:40:23,519 --> 00:40:28,840
Such as she is, in beauty, virtue, birth,
is the young Dauphin every way complete

509
00:40:30,199 --> 00:40:36,119
He is the half part of a blessed man,
left to be finished by such as she

510
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:43,639
And she a fair divided excellence,
whose fulness of perfection lies in him

511
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,639
O, two such silver currents...

512
00:40:49,159 --> 00:40:53,760
...when they join,
do glorify the banks that bound them in

513
00:40:54,519 --> 00:40:59,039
And two such shores
to two such streams made one...

514
00:41:00,039 --> 00:41:03,199
...two such controlling bounds
shall you be, kings...

515
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,280
...to these two princes, if you marry them

516
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:11,719
This union shall do more than battery can
to these fast-closed gates

517
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:16,079
Son, list to this conjunction,
make this match.

518
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,039
Give with our niece a dowry large enough

519
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:24,119
For by this knot thou shalt so surely tie
thy now unsured assurance to the crown...

520
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,760
...that yon green boy shall have no sun...

521
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,480
...to ripe the bloom
that promiseth a mighty fruit

522
00:41:30,199 --> 00:41:34,639
I see a yielding in the looks of France.
Mark, how they whisper

523
00:41:35,079 --> 00:41:37,639
Urge them while their souls
are capable of this ambition

524
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,920
Lest zeal, now melted by the windy breath
of soft petitions, pity and remorse...

525
00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:45,119
...cool and congeal again to what it was

526
00:41:45,639 --> 00:41:47,119
Speak England first...

527
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,639
...that hath been forward first
to speak unto this city. What say you?

528
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:59,239
If that the Dauphin there, thy princely son,
can in this book of beauty read "I love"...

529
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,639
...her dowry shall weigh equal with a queen

530
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,039
For Anjou and fair Touraine...

531
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,840
...Maine, Poitiers,
and all that we upon this side the sea...

532
00:42:11,039 --> 00:42:16,280
Except this city now by us besieged,
find liable to our crown and dignity...

533
00:42:16,559 --> 00:42:19,679
...shall gild her bridal bed and make her rich...

534
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:23,880
...in titles, honours and promotions...

535
00:42:24,039 --> 00:42:30,320
...as she in beauty, education, blood,
holds hand with any princess of the world

536
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:32,760
What say'st thou, boy?

537
00:42:34,079 --> 00:42:35,760
Look in the lady's face

538
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,480
I do, my lord,
and in her eye I find a wonder

539
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,880
Or a wondrous miracle...

540
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:49,239
...the shadow of myself formed in her eye

541
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,920
Which being but the shadow of your son...

542
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:59,159
...becomes a sun and makes your son a shadow

543
00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:04,719
I do protest I never loved myself
till now infixed...

544
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:09,840
...I beheld myself
drawn in the flattering table of her eye

545
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,280
My uncle's will in this respect is mine

546
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,760
If he see aught in you
that makes him like...

547
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,920
...that any thing he sees,
which moves his liking...

548
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:22,760
...I can with ease translate it to my will

549
00:43:23,519 --> 00:43:29,079
Or if you will, to speak more properly,
I will enforce it easily to my love

550
00:43:31,679 --> 00:43:37,239
Further I will not flatter you, my lord,
that all I see in you is worthy love...

551
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,000
...than this.

552
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,639
That nothing do I see in you...

553
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,559
...though churlish thoughts themselves
should be your judge...

554
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,840
...that I can find should merit any hate

555
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,719
What say these young ones?
What say you my niece?

556
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:57,920
That she is bound in honour still to do
what you in wisdom still vouchsafe to say

557
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:02,960
Speak then, prince Dauphin.
Can you love this lady?

558
00:44:06,159 --> 00:44:12,039
Nay, ask me if I can refrain from love,
for I do love her most unfeignedly

559
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,159
Philip of France, if thou be pleased withal,
command thy son and daughter to join hands

560
00:44:18,559 --> 00:44:22,400
It likes us well.
Young princes, close your hands

561
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,880
And your lips too

562
00:44:26,679 --> 00:44:29,880
For I am well assured
that I did so when I was first assured

563
00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:37,079
Now, citizens of Angiers, ope your gates,
let in that amity which you have made

564
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:42,679
For at Saint Mary's chapel presently
the rites of marriage shall be solemnized

565
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,199
Is not the Lady Constance in this troop?

566
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,280
I know she is not, for this match made up
her presence would have interrupted much

567
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,239
Where is she and her son?
Tell me, who knows

568
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:58,840
She is sad and passionate
at your highness' tent

569
00:44:59,039 --> 00:45:01,239
And, by my faith, this league
that we have made...

570
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,079
...shall give her sadness very little cure

571
00:45:05,039 --> 00:45:09,199
Brother of England,
how may we content this widow lady?

572
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:14,239
In her right we came. Which we, God knows,
have turned another way, to our own vantage

573
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:19,519
We will heal up all. For we'll create young Arthur
Duke of Bretagne and Earl of Richmond...

574
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,280
...and this rich fair town
we make him lord of

575
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:24,960
Call the Lady Constance

576
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:29,119
Some speedy messenger
bid her repair to our solemnity

577
00:45:32,599 --> 00:45:35,840
I trust we shall,
if not fill up the measure of her will...

578
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:40,039
...yet in some measure satisfy her so
that we shall stop her exclamation

579
00:45:43,199 --> 00:45:49,960
Go we, as well as haste will suffer us,
to this unlooked for, unprepared pomp

580
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:04,800
Mad world! Mad kings! Mad composition!

581
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:11,519
John, to stop Arthur's title in the whole,
hath willingly departed with a part

582
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,599
And France,
whose armour conscience buckled on...

583
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:20,719
...whom zeal and charity
brought to the field as God's own soldier...

584
00:46:21,639 --> 00:46:24,800
...rounded in the ear
with that same purpose-changer...

585
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:29,320
...that sly devil, that broker,
that still breaks the pate of faith...

586
00:46:29,519 --> 00:46:32,679
...that daily break-vow,
he that wins of all, of kings...

587
00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:36,599
...of beggars, old men, young men, maids...

588
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,079
...who, having no external thing to lose
but the word "maid'...

589
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,119
...cheats the poor maid of that

590
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:47,840
That smooth-faced gentleman,
tickling commodity

591
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,000
Commodity, the bias of the world

592
00:46:54,159 --> 00:46:58,440
The world, who of itself is peised well,
made to run even upon even ground...

593
00:46:58,599 --> 00:47:04,079
...till this advantage, this vile-drawing bias,
this sway of motion, this commodity...

594
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:09,480
...makes it take head from all indifferency,
from all direction, purpose, course, intent

595
00:47:09,639 --> 00:47:12,039
And this same bias, this commodity...

596
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,559
...this bawd, this broker,
this all-changing word...

597
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:21,119
...clapped on the outward eye of fickle France,
hath drawn him from his own determined aid...

598
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:27,920
...from a resolved and honourable war,
to a most base and vile-concluded peace

599
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,159
And why rail I on this commodity?

600
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,639
But for because he hath
not woo'd me yet

601
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,400
Not that I have the power to clutch my hand,
when his fair angels should salute my palm

602
00:47:45,599 --> 00:47:50,800
But for my hand, as unattempted yet,
like a poor beggar, raileth on the rich

603
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:56,800
Well, whiles I am a beggar, I will rail
and say there is no sin but to be rich

604
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,800
And being rich, my virtue then shall be
to say there is no vice but beggary

605
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,199
Since kings break faith upon commodity...

606
00:48:07,039 --> 00:48:10,960
...gain, be my lord, for I will worship thee

607
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:51,400
Gone to be married!

608
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,440
Gone to swear a peace!

609
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:04,320
False blood to false blood joined!
Gone to be friends!

610
00:49:04,599 --> 00:49:08,159
Shall Lewis have Blanche,
and Blanche those provinces?

611
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:09,880
It is not so

612
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,400
Thou hast misspoke, misheard

613
00:49:15,639 --> 00:49:17,880
Be well advised, tell o'er thy tale again

614
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:24,280
Believe me, I do not believe thee, man.
I have a king's oath to the contrary

615
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,679
Thou shalt be punished for thus frighting me

616
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,079
For I am sick and capable of fears...

617
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,920
...oppressed with wrongs
and therefore full of fears

618
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:45,199
A widow, husbandless, subject to fears...

619
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,400
...a woman, naturally born to fears

620
00:49:50,039 --> 00:49:52,480
And though thou now confess
thou didst but jest...

621
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:56,239
...with my vexed spirits
I cannot take a truce...

622
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,599
...but they will quake
and tremble all this day

623
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,320
What dost thou mean by shaking of thy head?

624
00:50:12,639 --> 00:50:15,159
Why dost thou look so sadly on my son?

625
00:50:17,519 --> 00:50:21,079
Be these sad signs confirmers of thy words?

626
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:26,480
Then speak again. Not all thy former tale,
but this one word, whether thy tale be true

627
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,039
As true as I believe you think them false...

628
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,840
...that give you cause
to prove my saying true

629
00:50:41,039 --> 00:50:43,760
O, if thou teach me to believe this sorrow...

630
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:54,000
...teach thou this sorrow how to make me die,
and let belief and life encounter so...

631
00:50:54,159 --> 00:50:58,920
...as doth the fury of two desperate men
which in the very meeting fall and die

632
00:50:59,039 --> 00:51:03,320
Lewis marry Blanche!
O, boy, then where art thou?

633
00:51:04,639 --> 00:51:09,480
France friend with England,
what becomes of me?

634
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:16,920
Fellow, be gone, I cannot brook thy sight.
This news hath made thee a most ugly man

635
00:51:17,079 --> 00:51:20,920
What other harm have I, good lady, done,
but spoke the harm that is by others done?

636
00:51:21,079 --> 00:51:25,280
Which harm within itself so heinous is
as it makes harmful all that speak of it

637
00:51:25,519 --> 00:51:28,880
I do beseech you, madam, be content

638
00:51:34,079 --> 00:51:37,679
If thou, that bid'st me be content...

639
00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:45,000
...wert grim, ugly
and slanderous to thy mother's womb...

640
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:48,920
...full of unpleasing blots
and sightless stains...

641
00:51:49,119 --> 00:51:52,400
...lame, foolish, crooked, or prodigious...

642
00:51:52,599 --> 00:51:54,960
...patched with foul moles
or eye-offending marks...

643
00:51:55,119 --> 00:51:58,400
...I would not care,
I then would be content...

644
00:51:58,559 --> 00:52:04,840
...for then I should not love thee, no, nor thou
become thy great birth nor deserve a crown

645
00:52:05,639 --> 00:52:08,639
But thou art fair...

646
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,440
...and at thy birth, dear boy...

647
00:52:14,079 --> 00:52:18,320
...nature and fortune joined
to make thee great

648
00:52:19,599 --> 00:52:23,159
Of nature's gifts thou mayst
with lilies boast...

649
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,280
...and with the half-blown rose

650
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,800
But fortune, O...

651
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:36,679
...she is corrupted,
changed and won from me

652
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,400
She adulterates hourly
with thine uncle John...

653
00:52:41,199 --> 00:52:43,880
...and with her golden hand
hath plucked on France...

654
00:52:44,199 --> 00:52:49,039
...to tread down fair respect of sovereignty,
and make his majesty the bawd to theirs

655
00:52:49,599 --> 00:52:55,960
France is a bawd to fortune and King John,
that strumpet fortune, that usurping John!

656
00:52:56,119 --> 00:53:00,559
Tell me, thou fellow, is not France forsworn?
Envenom him with words, or get thee gone...

657
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:03,599
...and leave those woes alone which I alone
am bound to under-bear

658
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:06,599
Pardon me, madam,
I may not go without you to the kings

659
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:07,800
Thou mayst...

660
00:53:08,519 --> 00:53:09,639
...thou shalt.

661
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,079
I will not go with thee

662
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:24,440
I will instruct my sorrows to be proud,
for grief is proud and makes his owner stoop

663
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:32,079
To me and to the state of my great grief
let kings assemble

664
00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:40,119
For my grief's so great that no supporter
but the huge firm earth can hold it up

665
00:53:42,639 --> 00:53:47,159
Here I and sorrows sit.

666
00:53:47,639 --> 00:53:52,239
Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it

667
00:54:04,519 --> 00:54:11,800
'Tis true, fair daughter, and this blessed day
ever in France shall be kept festival

668
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:34,480
To solemnize this day the glorious sun
stays in his course and plays the alchemist...

669
00:55:35,119 --> 00:55:41,519
...turning with splendour of his precious eye
the meagre cloddy earth to glittering gold

670
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:48,960
The yearly course that brings this day about
shall never see it but a holy day

671
00:55:49,159 --> 00:55:50,559
A holy day!

672
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:54,440
A wicked day, and not a holy day!

673
00:55:55,679 --> 00:55:58,599
What hath this day deserved?
What hath it done...

674
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:02,800
...that it in golden letters should be set
among the high tides in the calendar?

675
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:10,280
Nay, rather turn this day out of the week,
this day of shame, oppression, perjury

676
00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,280
Or, if it must stand still...

677
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,920
...let wives with child pray
their burthens may not fall this day...

678
00:56:18,159 --> 00:56:20,360
...lest that their hopes prodigiously be quashed

679
00:56:20,559 --> 00:56:27,239
But on this day let seamen fear no wreck,
no bargains break that are not this day made

680
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:36,199
This day, all things begun come to ill end,
yea, faith itself to hollow falsehood change

681
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:40,679
By heaven, lady, you shall have no cause
to curse the fair proceedings of this day

682
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:43,880
Have I not pawned to you my majesty?

683
00:56:44,079 --> 00:56:47,679
You have beguiled me with a counterfeit
resembling majesty...

684
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,519
...which, being touched and tried,
proves valueless

685
00:56:51,039 --> 00:56:53,400
You are forsworn, forsworn!

686
00:56:54,440 --> 00:57:00,840
You came in arms to spill mine enemies' blood,
but now in arms you strengthen it with yours

687
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,519
The grappling vigour and rough frown of war
lies cold in amity and painted peace

688
00:57:07,159 --> 00:57:09,679
And our oppression hath made up this league

689
00:57:10,079 --> 00:57:13,159
Arm, arm, you heavens,
against these perjured kings!

690
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,559
A widow cries. Be husband to me, heavens!

691
00:57:16,719 --> 00:57:19,840
Let not the hours of this ungodly day
wear out the day in peace

692
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,960
But, ere sunset, set armed discord
'twixt these perjured kings

693
00:57:24,079 --> 00:57:27,440
- Hear me, O, hear me!
- Lady Constance, peace!

694
00:57:27,559 --> 00:57:31,400
War, war! No peace! Peace is to me a war

695
00:57:31,559 --> 00:57:35,519
O, Limoges! O, Austria!

696
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:42,760
Thou dost shame that bloody spoil,
thou slave, thou wretch, thou coward

697
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:50,920
Thou little valiant, great in villainy,
thou ever strong upon the stronger side

698
00:57:51,519 --> 00:57:54,320
Thou fortune's champion
that dost never fight...

699
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,519
...but when her humorous ladyship
is by to teach thee safety

700
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,559
Thou art perjured too,
and soothest up greatness

701
00:58:00,719 --> 00:58:07,199
What a fool art thou, a ramping fool,
to brag and stamp and swear upon my party

702
00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,199
Hast thou not spoke like thunder on my side?

703
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:16,360
Been sworn my soldier, bidding me depend
upon thy stars, thy fortune and thy strength?

704
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,159
And dost thou now fall over to my foes?

705
00:58:20,519 --> 00:58:26,519
Thou wear a lion's hide. Doff it for shame,
and hang a calf's-skin on those recreant limbs

706
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,360
O, that a man should speak those words to me!

707
00:58:32,679 --> 00:58:36,159
And hang a calf's-skin
on those recreant limbs

708
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,000
Thou darest not say so, villain, for thy life

709
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:46,400
And hang a calf's-skin
on those recreant limbs

710
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:48,280
Enough!

711
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,960
We like not this. Thou dost forget thyself

712
00:58:59,960 --> 00:59:03,960
Here comes the holy legate of the pope

713
00:59:13,039 --> 00:59:17,760
- Buongiorno, monsignore
- Hail, you anointed deputies of heaven

714
00:59:19,039 --> 00:59:23,880
To thee, King John, my holy errand is

715
00:59:24,679 --> 00:59:29,639
I Pandulph, of fair Milan cardinal,
and from Pope Innocent the legate here...

716
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,039
...do in his name religiously demand...

717
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:37,239
...why thou against the church,
our holy mother...

718
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:44,679
...so wilfully dost spurn, and force perforce...

719
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:50,000
...keep Stephen Langton, chosen archbishop
of Canterbury, from that holy see?

720
00:59:50,519 --> 00:59:55,159
This, in our foresaid holy father's name,
Pope Innocent, I do demand of thee

721
00:59:55,320 --> 01:00:01,079
What earthy name to interrogatories
can task the free breath of a sacred king?

722
01:00:02,679 --> 01:00:07,719
Thou canst not, cardinal, devise a name
so slight, unworthy and ridiculous...

723
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:09,760
...to charge me to an answer, as the pope

724
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:14,159
Tell him this tale, and from the mouth
of England add thus much more

725
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:19,599
That no Italian priest shall tithe
or toll in our dominions...

726
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:23,280
...but as we, under heaven, are supreme head...

727
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:27,119
...so under Him that great supremacy,
where we do reign...

728
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:31,559
...we will alone uphold,
without the assistance of a mortal hand

729
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:37,639
So tell the pope, all reverence set apart
to him and his usurped authority

730
01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:40,559
Scusi, scusi!

731
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,000
Brother of England, you blaspheme in this

732
01:00:45,239 --> 01:00:50,360
Though you and all the kings of Christendom
are led so grossly by this meddling priest...

733
01:00:50,719 --> 01:00:53,679
...dreading the curse that money may buy out...

734
01:00:54,159 --> 01:01:00,519
...and by the merit of vile gold, dross, dust...

735
01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:05,199
...purchase corrupted pardon of a man,
who in that sale sells pardon from himself...

736
01:01:05,599 --> 01:01:09,239
...though you and all the rest so grossly led...

737
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,360
...this juggling witchcraft
with revenue cherish...

738
01:01:12,599 --> 01:01:19,599
...yet I alone, alone do me oppose
against the pope and count his friends my foes

739
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,480
Then, by the lawful power that I have,
thou shalt stand cursed...

740
01:01:25,559 --> 01:01:27,760
...and excommunicate

741
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,199
And blessed shall he be that doth revolt
from his allegiance to an heretic

742
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:37,559
And meritorious shall that hand be called,
canonized, worshipped as a saint...

743
01:01:38,079 --> 01:01:42,760
...that takes away by any secret course
thy hateful life

744
01:01:43,639 --> 01:01:48,559
O, lawful let it be
that I have room with Rome to curse awhile!

745
01:01:48,719 --> 01:01:52,599
Good father cardinal,
cry thou amen to my keen curses

746
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:57,079
For without my wrong
there is no tongue hath power to curse him right

747
01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:00,199
- There's law and warrant, lady, for my curse
- And for mine too

748
01:02:00,599 --> 01:02:05,880
When law can do no right,
let it be lawful that law bar no wrong

749
01:02:06,159 --> 01:02:12,559
Law cannot give my child his kingdom here,
for he that holds his kingdom holds the law

750
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:18,719
Therefore, since law itself is perfect wrong,
how can the law forbid my tongue to curse?

751
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:37,159
Philip of France!

752
01:02:44,679 --> 01:02:49,079
On peril of a curse,
let go the hand of that arch-heretic...

753
01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:52,880
...and raise the power of France upon his head,
unless he do submit himself to Rome

754
01:02:53,719 --> 01:02:56,039
Look'st thou pale, France?
Do not let go thy hand

755
01:02:56,239 --> 01:03:00,960
Look to that, devil, lest that France repent,
and by disjoining hands, hell lose a soul

756
01:03:01,159 --> 01:03:04,960
- King Philip, listen to the cardinal
- And hang a calf's-skin on his recreant limbs

757
01:03:05,199 --> 01:03:06,599
Well, ruffian...

758
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,440
- I must pocket up these wrongs, because...
- Your breeches best may carry them

759
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:16,480
- Philip, what sayest thou to the cardinal?
- What should he say, but as the cardinal?

760
01:03:16,639 --> 01:03:20,480
Bethink you, father. For the difference
is purchase of a heavy curse from Rome...

761
01:03:20,679 --> 01:03:24,320
...or the light loss of England for a friend.
Forego the easier

762
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:30,079
- The king is moved, and answers not to this
- O, be removed from him, and answer well

763
01:03:30,199 --> 01:03:32,360
Do so, King Philip, hang no more in doubt

764
01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:35,559
Hang nothing but a calf's-skin,
most sweet lout

765
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,159
Stop it!

766
01:04:31,639 --> 01:04:33,880
I am perplexed, and know not what to say

767
01:04:36,559 --> 01:04:42,119
What canst thou say but will perplex thee more,
if thou stand excommunicate and cursed?

768
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:49,880
Good reverend father, make my person yours,
and tell me how you would bestow yourself

769
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:56,480
This royal hand and mine are newly knit,
and the conjunction of our inward souls...

770
01:04:56,679 --> 01:05:02,199
...married in league, coupled, linked together
with all religious strength of sacred vows

771
01:05:02,599 --> 01:05:04,800
The latest breath that gave the sound of words...

772
01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:08,840
...was deep-sworn faith, peace,
amity, true love...

773
01:05:09,079 --> 01:05:11,800
...between our kingdoms and our royal selves

774
01:05:21,679 --> 01:05:24,280
And even before this truce, yet new before...

775
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,920
...no longer than we well could wash our hands
to clap this royal bargain up of peace...

776
01:05:29,039 --> 01:05:34,639
...God knows, they were besmeared
and over-stained with slaughter's pencil

777
01:05:35,639 --> 01:05:40,000
Where revenge did paint
the fearful difference of incensed kings

778
01:05:41,119 --> 01:05:47,679
And shall these hands, so lately purged of blood,
so newly joined in love, so strong in both...

779
01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:50,800
...unyoke this seizure and this kind regreet?

780
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:54,880
Play fast and loose with faith?
So jest with God?

781
01:05:55,079 --> 01:06:00,880
Make such inconstant children of ourselves,
as now again to snatch our palm from palm?

782
01:06:01,079 --> 01:06:06,480
Unswear faith sworn, and on the marriage-bed
of smiling peace to march a bloody host...

783
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:11,960
...and make a riot on the gentle brow
of true sincerity?

784
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:13,920
O...

785
01:06:15,719 --> 01:06:21,360
...holy sir,
my reverend father, let it not be so

786
01:06:22,039 --> 01:06:28,440
Out of your grace, devise, ordain, impose
some gentle order

787
01:06:28,599 --> 01:06:32,840
And then we shall be blest
to do your pleasure and continue friends

788
01:06:42,159 --> 01:06:49,880
All form is formless, order orderless,
save what is opposite to England's love

789
01:06:50,159 --> 01:06:54,719
Therefore to arms! Be champion of our church

790
01:06:55,039 --> 01:07:03,440
Or let the church, our mother, breathe her curse,
a mother's curse, on her revolting son

791
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:10,719
France, thou mayst hold a serpent by the tongue,
a chafed lion by the mortal paw...

792
01:07:11,199 --> 01:07:13,840
...a fasting tiger safer by the tooth...

793
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:16,480
...than keep in peace that hand
which thou doth hold

794
01:07:16,719 --> 01:07:22,400
- I may disjoin my hand, but not my faith
- So makest thou faith an enemy to faith

795
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:28,039
And like a civil war set oath to oath,
thy tongue against thy tongue

796
01:07:29,119 --> 01:07:34,119
Let thy vow first made to heaven,
first be to heaven performed

797
01:07:34,639 --> 01:07:36,880
That is, to be the champion of our church

798
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:43,440
What since thou sworest is sworn against thyself
and may not be performed by thyself

799
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:48,280
For that which thou hast sworn to do amiss
is not amiss when it is truly done

800
01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:53,400
And being not done, where doing tends to ill,
the truth is then most done not doing it

801
01:07:54,519 --> 01:07:58,320
It is religion that doth make vows kept

802
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:00,960
But thou hast sworn against religion...

803
01:08:01,239 --> 01:08:04,480
...by what thou swear'st against
the thing thou swear'st...

804
01:08:04,679 --> 01:08:08,599
...and makest an oath the surety for thy truth
against an oath

805
01:08:09,519 --> 01:08:13,440
The truth thou art unsure to swear,
swears only not to be forsworn...

806
01:08:13,559 --> 01:08:17,479
...else what a mockery should it be to swear!
But thou doth swear only to be forsworn...

807
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:20,359
...and most forsworn, to keep
what thou dost swear. Therefore...

808
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:26,840
...thy later vows against thy first
are in thyself rebellion to thyself

809
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:31,159
And better conquest never canst thou make...

810
01:08:31,319 --> 01:08:39,279
...than to arm thy constant and thy nobler parts
against these giddy loose suggestions

811
01:08:40,159 --> 01:08:45,560
Upon which better part our prayers come in,
if thou vouchsafe them

812
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:52,199
But if not, know the peril of our curses
light on thee so heavy...

813
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,640
...as thou shalt not shake them off...

814
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:58,399
...but in despair die under their black weight

815
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,359
- Rebellion, flat rebellion!
- Will't not be?

816
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,479
- Will not a calfs-skin stop that mouth of thine?
- Father, to arms!

817
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:06,600
Upon thy wedding-day?

818
01:09:08,199 --> 01:09:11,239
Against the blood that thou hast married?

819
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:17,520
What, shall our feast be kept
with slaughtered men?

820
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:23,800
Shall braying trumpets and loud churlish drums,
clamours of hell, be measures to our pomp?

821
01:09:25,239 --> 01:09:26,680
O, husband, hear me!

822
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,920
Ay, alack, how new is "husband" in my mouth!

823
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:33,800
Even for that name...

824
01:09:34,319 --> 01:09:37,640
...which till this time
my tongue did ne'er pronounce...

825
01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:42,680
...upon my knees I beg,
go not to arms against mine uncle

826
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:46,000
O, upon my knees, made hard with kneeling...

827
01:09:46,199 --> 01:09:51,560
...I pray to thee, thou virtuous Dauphin,
alter not the doom forethought by heaven

828
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:56,800
Now shall I see thy love. What motive may
be stronger with thee than the name of wife?

829
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:02,439
That which upholdeth him that thee upholds,
his honour. O, thine honour, Lewis, thine honour!

830
01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:08,439
I muse your majesty doth seem so cold,
when such profound respects do pull you on

831
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:10,359
I will denounce a curse upon his head

832
01:10:11,319 --> 01:10:12,600
Thou shalt not need

833
01:10:14,039 --> 01:10:17,479
England, I will fall from thee

834
01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:23,840
- O, fair return of banished majesty!
- O, foul revolt of French inconstancy!

835
01:10:24,039 --> 01:10:27,720
France, thou shalt rue this hour within this hour

836
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:34,840
Old time the clock-setter, that bald sexton time,
is it as he will? Well then, France shall rue

837
01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:43,720
The sun's o'ercast with blood.

838
01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:50,039
Fair day, adieu!

839
01:10:54,039 --> 01:10:56,399
Which is the side that I must go withal?

840
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:02,319
I am with both, each army hath a hand

841
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:07,680
And in their rage, I having hold of both,
they swirl asunder and dismember me

842
01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:13,079
Husband, I cannot pray that thou mayst win.

843
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:17,159
Uncle, I needs must pray that thou mayst lose

844
01:11:17,319 --> 01:11:23,119
Father, I may not wish the fortune thine.
Grandam, I will not wish thy fortunes thrive

845
01:11:23,399 --> 01:11:27,119
Whoever wins, on that side shall I lose

846
01:11:31,439 --> 01:11:35,239
Assured loss before the match be played

847
01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:39,560
Lady, with me, with me thy fortune lies

848
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:43,600
There where my fortune lives...

849
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:47,319
...there my life dies

850
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:49,840
Cousin, go draw our puissance together

851
01:11:52,399 --> 01:11:55,880
France, I am burned up with inflaming wrath

852
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,680
A rage whose heat hath this condition

853
01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:05,960
That nothing can allay, nothing but blood,
the blood, and dearest-valued blood, of France

854
01:12:06,119 --> 01:12:11,600
Thy rage shall burn thee up, and thou shalt turn
to ashes, ere our blood shall quench that fire

855
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:19,079
- Look to thyself, thou art in jeopardy
- No more than he that threats

856
01:12:19,520 --> 01:12:21,119
To arms let's hie!

857
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:24,119
Hubert, keep this boy

858
01:13:24,279 --> 01:13:28,319
Now, by my life,
this day grows wondrous hot

859
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:32,800
Some airy devil hovers in the sky
and pours down mischief

860
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:38,239
Austria's head lie there,
while Philip breathes

861
01:13:38,399 --> 01:13:39,399
Philip, make up.

862
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:42,319
My mother is assailed in our tent,
and ta'en, I fear

863
01:13:44,359 --> 01:13:46,319
Her highness is in safety, fear you not

864
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:51,359
But on, my liege, for very little pains
will bring this labour to an happy end

865
01:13:53,079 --> 01:13:55,319
Cousin, look not sad

866
01:13:56,960 --> 01:14:02,079
Thy grandam loves thee, and thy uncle
will as dear be to thee as thy father was

867
01:14:02,479 --> 01:14:04,520
O, this will make my mother die with grief

868
01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:07,720
Cousin, away for England! Haste before,
and, ere our coming...

869
01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:12,920
...see thou shake the bags of hoarding abbots,
imprisoned angels set at liberty

870
01:14:13,159 --> 01:14:16,279
The fat ribs of peace
must by the hungry now be fed upon

871
01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:18,920
Use our commission in his utmost force

872
01:14:19,119 --> 01:14:23,680
Bell, book, and candle shall not drive me back,
when gold and silver becks me to come on

873
01:14:24,079 --> 01:14:25,239
I leave your highness

874
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:26,880
Grandam, I will pray...

875
01:14:27,079 --> 01:14:31,000
...if ever I remember to be holy,
for your fair safety. So, I kiss your hand

876
01:14:31,319 --> 01:14:34,039
- Farewell, gentle cousin
- Coz, farewell

877
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,960
Come hither, little kinsman. Hark, a word

878
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:51,239
Come hither, Hubert

879
01:14:58,279 --> 01:15:03,600
O, my gentle Hubert, we owe thee much

880
01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:13,199
Within this wall of flesh
there is a soul counts thee her creditor...

881
01:15:13,399 --> 01:15:16,039
...and with advantage means to pay thy love

882
01:15:18,199 --> 01:15:22,600
And my good friend, thy voluntary oath
lives in this bosom, dearly cherished

883
01:15:26,399 --> 01:15:27,520
Give me thy hand

884
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:44,840
I had a thing to say,
but I will fit it with some better time

885
01:15:49,199 --> 01:15:56,000
By heaven, Hubert, I am almost ashamed
to say what good respect I have of thee

886
01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:58,680
I am much bounden to your majesty

887
01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:02,880
Good friend,
thou hast no cause to say so yet...

888
01:16:04,279 --> 01:16:05,560
...but thou shalt have

889
01:16:07,159 --> 01:16:11,680
And creep time ne'er so slow,
yet it shall come from me to do thee good

890
01:16:13,119 --> 01:16:14,439
I had a thing to say...

891
01:16:16,319 --> 01:16:17,760
...but let it go

892
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,680
Oh, if that thou couldst see me without eyes...

893
01:16:27,159 --> 01:16:30,760
...hear me without thine ears,
and make reply without a tongue...

894
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:32,279
...using conceit alone...

895
01:16:34,039 --> 01:16:37,319
...without eyes, ears
and harmful sound of words

896
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,439
Then, in despite of brooded watchful day,
I would into thy bosom pour my thoughts

897
01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,359
But, ah, I will not.

898
01:16:48,359 --> 01:16:50,039
Yet, I love thee well.

899
01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:55,359
And, by my troth, I think thou lovest me well

900
01:16:55,560 --> 01:17:01,079
So well, that what you bid me undertake,
though that my death were adjunct to my act...

901
01:17:01,199 --> 01:17:03,880
- ...by heaven, I would do it
- Do not I know thou wouldst?

902
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:09,039
Good Hubert...

903
01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:15,319
...Hubert, Hubert,
throw thine eye on yon young boy

904
01:17:17,279 --> 01:17:20,079
I'll tell thee what, my friend,
he is a very serpent in my way

905
01:17:20,199 --> 01:17:23,239
And whereso'er this foot of mine doth tread,
he lies before me

906
01:17:25,319 --> 01:17:26,640
Dost thou understand me?

907
01:17:28,039 --> 01:17:29,359
Thou art his keeper

908
01:17:30,319 --> 01:17:33,159
And I'll keep him so,
that he shall not offend your majesty

909
01:17:33,359 --> 01:17:34,239
- Death
- My lord?

910
01:17:34,399 --> 01:17:36,880
- A grave
- He shall not live

911
01:17:37,039 --> 01:17:38,359
Enough

912
01:17:44,079 --> 01:17:46,199
I could be merry now

913
01:17:51,359 --> 01:17:52,680
Hubert, I love thee

914
01:17:56,359 --> 01:18:00,680
Well, I'll not say what I intend for thee.
Remember

915
01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:04,600
Madam, fare you well.
I'll send those powers o'er to your majesty

916
01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:07,199
My blessing go with thee

917
01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:13,560
For England, cousin, go

918
01:18:15,319 --> 01:18:19,920
Hubert shall be your man,
attend on you with all true duty

919
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:25,640
On toward Calais, ho!

920
01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:41,640
So, by a roaring tempest on the flood...

921
01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:47,399
...a whole armado of convicted sail
is scattered and disjoined from fellowship

922
01:18:48,319 --> 01:18:50,640
Courage and comfort! All shall yet go well

923
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:55,199
What can go well, when we have run so ill?

924
01:18:56,039 --> 01:19:01,760
Are we not beaten? Is not Angiers lost?
Arthur taken prisoner? Many dear friends slain?

925
01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:07,359
And bloody England into England gone,
o'erbearing interruption, spite of France?

926
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:11,760
Lo, now, now see the issue of your peace!

927
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,000
Patience, good lady!

928
01:19:13,119 --> 01:19:19,079
- Comfort, gentle Constance!
- No, I defy all counsel, all redress...

929
01:19:19,319 --> 01:19:26,640
...but that which ends all counsel, true redress,
death, death, O, amiable lovely death

930
01:19:26,800 --> 01:19:30,319
Thou odoriferous stench! Sound rottenness!

931
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:34,720
Come, grin on me, and I will think thou smilest
and kiss thee as thy wife

932
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,880
Misery's love, O, come to me!

933
01:19:38,039 --> 01:19:42,640
- O, fair affliction, peace!
- No, no, I will not, having breath to cry

934
01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:49,079
O, that my tongue were in the thunder's mouth.
Then with a passion would I shake the world

935
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:53,279
Lady, you utter madness, and not sorrow

936
01:20:01,239 --> 01:20:07,560
Thou art not holy to belie me so.
I am not mad

937
01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:21,359
This hair I tear is mine...

938
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:24,560
...my name is Constance...

939
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:27,319
...I was Geoffrey's wife

940
01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:34,000
Young Arthur is my son, and he is lost

941
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:40,159
I am not mad. I would to heaven I were!
For then, 'tis like I should forget myself

942
01:20:40,319 --> 01:20:45,079
O, if I could, what grief should I forget!

943
01:20:46,560 --> 01:20:51,680
Preach some philosophy to make me mad,
and thou shalt be canonized, cardinal

944
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:58,920
For being not mad but sensible of grief,
my reasonable part produces reason...

945
01:20:59,079 --> 01:21:02,920
...how I may be delivered of these woes,
and teaches me to kill or hang myself

946
01:21:12,199 --> 01:21:19,960
If I were mad, I should forget my son,
or madly think a babe of clouts were he

947
01:21:20,119 --> 01:21:28,119
I am not mad. Too well, too well I feel
the different plague of each calamity

948
01:21:28,319 --> 01:21:30,399
Bind up those tresses.
O...

949
01:21:33,359 --> 01:21:39,199
...what love I note
in the fair multitude of those her hairs

950
01:21:39,359 --> 01:21:42,520
Where but by chance a silver drop hath fallen...

951
01:21:43,399 --> 01:21:48,359
...even to that drop ten thousand wiry friends
do glue themselves in sociable grief

952
01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:53,439
Like true, inseparable, faithful loves,
sticking together in calamity

953
01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:55,560
To England, if you will

954
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,239
- Bind up your hairs
- Yes, that I will

955
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:02,159
And wherefore will I do it?

956
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:07,840
I tore them from their bonds and cried aloud

957
01:22:08,239 --> 01:22:14,279
"O, that these hands could so redeem my son,
as they have given these hairs their liberty"

958
01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:18,319
But now I envy at their liberty,
and will again commit them to their bonds

959
01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:21,760
Because my poor child is a prisoner

960
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:31,600
And, father cardinal, I have heard you say
that we shall see and know our friends in heaven

961
01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,199
If that be true, then I shall see my boy again

962
01:22:36,319 --> 01:22:42,399
For since the birth of Cain, the first male child,
to him that did but yesterday suspire...

963
01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:47,479
...there was not such a gracious creature born

964
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:52,800
But now...

965
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:57,159
...will canker-sorrow eat my bud...

966
01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:00,760
...and chase the native beauty from his cheek

967
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:05,600
And he will look as hollow as a ghost,
as dim and meagre as an ague's fit

968
01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:12,640
And so he'll die, and, rising so again,
when I shall meet him in the court of heaven...

969
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:18,880
...I shall not know him. Therefore never,
never must I behold my pretty Arthur more

970
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:26,039
- You hold too heinous a respect of grief
- He talks to me that never had a son

971
01:23:26,319 --> 01:23:29,800
You are as fond of grief as of your child

972
01:23:35,359 --> 01:23:36,439
Grief...

973
01:23:40,159 --> 01:23:41,479
...fills the room up...

974
01:23:43,159 --> 01:23:45,079
...of my absent child

975
01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:49,279
Lies in his bed...

976
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:53,119
...walks up and down with me...

977
01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:57,439
...puts on his pretty looks...

978
01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:00,279
...repeats his words...

979
01:24:01,960 --> 01:24:04,920
...remembers me of all his gracious parts...

980
01:24:07,520 --> 01:24:11,079
...stuffs out his vacant garments with his form

981
01:24:13,319 --> 01:24:17,920
Then, have I reason to be fond of grief?

982
01:24:22,119 --> 01:24:23,079
Fare you well.

983
01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:27,439
Had you such a loss as I...

984
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,159
...I could give better comfort than you do

985
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:39,359
I will not keep this form upon my head,
when there is such disorder in my wit

986
01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:40,640
O, Lord!

987
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:44,840
My boy, my Arthur...

988
01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:48,399
...my fair son!

989
01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:59,439
My life, my joy, my food, my all the world!

990
01:25:01,039 --> 01:25:06,039
My widow-comfort, and my sorrows' cure!

991
01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:15,960
I fear some outrage, and I'll follow her

992
01:25:59,159 --> 01:26:02,079
There is nothing in this world can make me joy

993
01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:11,000
Life is as tedious as a twice-told tale...

994
01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:15,439
...vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man

995
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:21,880
And bitter shame hath spoiled
the sweet world's taste...

996
01:26:22,119 --> 01:26:26,119
...that it yields nought
but shame and bitterness

997
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:35,640
- What have you lost by losing of this day?
- All days of glory, joy and happiness

998
01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:36,840
No...

999
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:40,960
...no

1000
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:49,520
When fortune means to men most good,
she looks upon them with a threatening eye

1001
01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:54,640
'Tis strange to think
how much King John hath lost...

1002
01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:57,520
...in this which he accounts so clearly won

1003
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:01,520
Are not you grieved
that Arthur is his prisoner?

1004
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:03,880
As heartily as he is glad he hath him

1005
01:27:04,159 --> 01:27:09,720
Your mind is all as youthful as your blood.
Now hear me speak with a prophetic spirit

1006
01:27:10,039 --> 01:27:13,159
For even the breath of what I mean to speak
shall blow each dust...

1007
01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:15,479
...each straw, each little rub...

1008
01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:20,920
...out of the path which shall directly lead
thy foot to England's throne

1009
01:27:22,119 --> 01:27:23,479
And therefore mark

1010
01:27:24,159 --> 01:27:26,760
John hath seized Arthur...

1011
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:31,720
...and it cannot be that, whiles warm life
plays in that infant's veins...

1012
01:27:32,079 --> 01:27:37,680
...the misplaced John should entertain an hour,
a minute, nay, one quiet breath of rest

1013
01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:43,479
That John may stand,
then Arthur needs must fall

1014
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,760
So be it, for it cannot be but so

1015
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:49,199
But what shall I gain by young Arthur's fall?

1016
01:27:49,399 --> 01:27:54,760
You, in the right of Lady Blanche your wife,
may then make all the claim that Arthur did

1017
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,760
And lose it, life and all, as Arthur did

1018
01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:07,159
How green you are and fresh in this old world!
John lays you plots, the times conspire with you

1019
01:28:08,079 --> 01:28:15,439
This act so evilly born shall cool the hearts
of all his people and freeze up their zeal...

1020
01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:20,479
...that none so small advantage shall step forth
to check his reign, but they will cherish it

1021
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:27,359
No natural exhalation of the sky,
no scope of nature, no distempered day...

1022
01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:35,600
...but they will pluck away its natural cause
and call them meteors, prodigies, signs...

1023
01:28:36,039 --> 01:28:41,600
...abortives, portents, tongues of heaven,
plainly denouncing vengeance upon John

1024
01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:46,079
May be he will not touch young Arthur's life,
but hold himself safe in his prisonment

1025
01:28:46,239 --> 01:28:53,279
O, sir, when he shall hear of your approach,
if that young Arthur be not gone already...

1026
01:28:54,079 --> 01:28:56,800
...even at that news he dies

1027
01:28:58,560 --> 01:29:02,920
And then the hearts
of all his people shall revolt from him

1028
01:29:04,399 --> 01:29:08,960
O, noble Dauphin, go with me to the king

1029
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,520
'Tis wonderful what may be wrought
out of their discontent...

1030
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,840
...now that their souls are topful of offence

1031
01:29:26,279 --> 01:29:29,560
For England go. I will whet on the king

1032
01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:36,119
Strong reasons make strong actions. Let us go.
If you say ay, the king will not say no

1033
01:31:54,920 --> 01:31:58,000
Heat me these irons hot,
and look thou stand within the arras

1034
01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:09,039
When I strike my foot upon the bosom
of the ground, rush forth...

1035
01:32:09,239 --> 01:32:12,359
...and bind the boy which you shall find with me
fast to the chair

1036
01:32:13,800 --> 01:32:15,520
Be heedful. Hence, and watch

1037
01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:21,520
- I hope your warrant will bear out this deed
- Uncleanly scruples! Fear not you

1038
01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:24,159
Look to it

1039
01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:07,960
Young lad...

1040
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:14,279
...young lad, come forth.
I have to say with you

1041
01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:19,279
Good morrow, Hubert

1042
01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:24,079
Good morrow, little prince

1043
01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:30,079
You are sad

1044
01:33:32,079 --> 01:33:33,680
Indeed, I have been merrier

1045
01:33:34,039 --> 01:33:38,359
Mercy on me!
Methinks nobody should be sad but I

1046
01:33:38,720 --> 01:33:44,039
So I were out of prison and kept sheep,
I should be as merry as the day is long

1047
01:33:45,079 --> 01:33:50,199
And so I would be here, but that I doubt
my uncle practises more harm to me

1048
01:33:51,279 --> 01:33:56,159
He is afraid of me and I of him.
Is it my fault that I was Geoffrey's son?

1049
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:58,800
No, indeed, it's not.

1050
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:03,720
And I would to heaven
I were your son, so you would love me, Hubert

1051
01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:10,560
If I talk to him, with his innocent prate
he will awake my mercy which lies dead

1052
01:34:11,359 --> 01:34:13,600
Therefore I will be sudden and dispatch

1053
01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:16,520
Are you sick, Hubert? You look pale to-day

1054
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:23,079
In sooth, I would you were a little sick,
that I might sit all night and watch with you

1055
01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:25,920
I warrant I love you more than you do me

1056
01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:31,279
If I talk to him, with his innocent prate
he will awake my mercy which lies dead

1057
01:34:33,199 --> 01:34:34,920
Read here, young Arthur

1058
01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:46,720
How now, foolish rheum,
turning dispiteous torture out of door!

1059
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:52,720
I must be brief, lest resolution drop
out at mine eyes in tender womanish tears

1060
01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:56,359
Can you not read it? Is it not fair writ?

1061
01:34:57,039 --> 01:35:03,479
Too fairly, Hubert, for so foul effect.
Must you with hot irons burn out both mine eyes?

1062
01:35:05,479 --> 01:35:06,600
Young boy, I must

1063
01:35:07,960 --> 01:35:09,079
And will you?

1064
01:35:10,760 --> 01:35:11,920
And I will

1065
01:35:13,119 --> 01:35:16,560
Have you the heart?
When your head did but ache...

1066
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:21,840
...I knit my handercher about your brows,
and with my hand at midnight held your head

1067
01:35:22,199 --> 01:35:26,560
And like the watchful minutes to the hour,
still and anon cheered up the heavy time

1068
01:35:27,039 --> 01:35:29,720
Saying, "What lack you?"
and "Where lies your grief?"

1069
01:35:30,159 --> 01:35:32,039
Or "What good love
may I perform for you?"

1070
01:35:32,720 --> 01:35:37,479
Many a poor man's son would have lien still
and ne'er have spoke a loving word to you

1071
01:35:38,119 --> 01:35:41,199
But you at your sick service had a prince

1072
01:35:42,239 --> 01:35:47,840
Nay, you may think my love was crafty love
and call it cunning. Do, an if you will

1073
01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:51,640
If heaven be pleased that you must use me ill,
why then you must.

1074
01:35:52,039 --> 01:35:53,479
Will you put out mine eyes?

1075
01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:56,800
These eyes that never did nor never shall
so much as frown on you

1076
01:35:57,000 --> 01:35:58,439
I have sworn to do it...

1077
01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:03,199
...and with hot irons must I burn them out

1078
01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:09,960
An if an angel should have come to me
and told me Hubert should put out mine eyes...

1079
01:36:10,119 --> 01:36:13,760
...I would not have believed him,
no tongue but Hubert's

1080
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:22,960
Come forth

1081
01:36:42,039 --> 01:36:43,359
Do as I bid you do

1082
01:36:44,119 --> 01:36:47,920
O, save me, Hubert, save me!
My eyes are out even with their fierce looks

1083
01:36:48,039 --> 01:36:52,359
- Give me the iron, I say, and bind him here
- For heaven's sake, Hubert, let me not be bound

1084
01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:56,760
Nay, hear me, Hubert, drive them both away,
and I will sit as quiet as a lamb

1085
01:36:56,960 --> 01:36:59,079
I will not stir, nor wince, nor speak a word

1086
01:36:59,399 --> 01:37:04,039
Thrust but them both away, and I'll forgive you,
whatever torment you do put me to

1087
01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:08,199
Go, stand within. Let me alone with him

1088
01:37:09,119 --> 01:37:11,640
I am best pleased to be from such a deed

1089
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:22,119
Alas, I then have chid away my friend.
She hath a stern look, but a gentle heart

1090
01:37:22,399 --> 01:37:25,560
Let her come back, that her compassion
may give life to yours

1091
01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:27,039
Come, boy, prepare yourself

1092
01:37:27,159 --> 01:37:29,600
- Is there no remedy?
- None, but to lose your eyes

1093
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:32,439
O, heaven, that there were but a mote in yours...

1094
01:37:32,760 --> 01:37:37,319
...a grain, a dust, a gnat, a wandering hair,
any annoyance in that precious sense

1095
01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:39,800
Then feeling what small things
are boisterous there...

1096
01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:43,039
- ...your vile intent must needs seem horrible
- Is this your promise?

1097
01:37:43,119 --> 01:37:44,920
Go to, hold your tongue

1098
01:37:45,239 --> 01:37:49,680
Hubert, the utterance of a pair of tongues
must needs want pleading for a pair of eyes

1099
01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,079
Let me not hold my tongue, let me not, Hubert

1100
01:37:52,199 --> 01:37:55,279
Or, Hubert, if you will, cut out my tongue,
so I may keep mine eyes

1101
01:37:55,399 --> 01:37:58,319
O, spare mine eyes,
though to no use but still to look on you

1102
01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:06,640
Lo, by my truth, the instrument is cold
and would not harm me

1103
01:38:09,399 --> 01:38:10,800
I can heat it, boy

1104
01:38:11,199 --> 01:38:17,920
No, in good sooth, the fire is dead with grief,
there is no malice in his burning coal

1105
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:23,119
The breath of heaven has blown his spirit out
and strewed repentent ashes on his head

1106
01:38:24,840 --> 01:38:28,159
But with my breath I can revive it, boy

1107
01:38:28,399 --> 01:38:29,359
An if you do...

1108
01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:33,680
...you will but make it blush and glow
with shame of your proceedings, Hubert

1109
01:38:50,560 --> 01:38:54,479
I will not touch thine eye
for all the treasure thine uncle owes

1110
01:38:55,920 --> 01:38:59,880
O, now you look like Hubert!
All this while you were disguised

1111
01:39:00,119 --> 01:39:05,079
Peace, no more. Adieu.
Your uncle must not know but you are dead

1112
01:39:06,119 --> 01:39:13,840
I'll fill these dogged spies with false reports.
And, pretty child, sleep doubtless and secure...

1113
01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:18,000
...that Hubert, for the wealth of all the world,
will not offend thee

1114
01:39:18,199 --> 01:39:22,359
- O, heaven! I thank you, Hubert
- Silence, no more. Go closely in with me

1115
01:39:22,640 --> 01:39:24,960
Much danger do I undergo for thee

1116
01:40:56,880 --> 01:40:58,600
Here once again we sit...

1117
01:41:00,600 --> 01:41:02,000
...once again crowned...

1118
01:41:03,359 --> 01:41:06,119
...and looked upon,
I hope, with cheerful eyes

1119
01:41:06,279 --> 01:41:11,000
This "once again", but that your highness
pleased, was once superfluous

1120
01:41:12,119 --> 01:41:13,920
You were crowned before

1121
01:41:14,520 --> 01:41:18,880
And that high royalty was ne'er plucked off,
the faiths of men ne'er stained with revolt

1122
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:23,760
Fresh expectation troubled not the land
for any longed-for change or better state

1123
01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:28,760
Therefore, to be possessed with double pomp,
to guard a title that was rich before...

1124
01:41:30,119 --> 01:41:35,840
...to gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
to throw a perfume on the violet...

1125
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:39,039
...to smooth the ice, or add another hue
unto the rainbow...

1126
01:41:39,319 --> 01:41:40,479
...or with taper-light...

1127
01:41:40,600 --> 01:41:46,119
...to seek the beauteous eye of heaven
to garnish, is wasteful and ridiculous excess...

1128
01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:51,960
To this effect, before you were new crowned,
we breathed our counsel

1129
01:41:52,159 --> 01:41:56,359
But it pleased your highness
to overbear it, and we are all well pleased

1130
01:41:56,560 --> 01:42:00,399
Since all and every part of what we would
doth make a stand at what your highness will

1131
01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:05,159
Some reasons for this double coronation
I have possessed you with, and think them strong

1132
01:42:06,039 --> 01:42:10,279
And more, more strong, when lesser is my fear,
I shall indue you with

1133
01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:15,039
Meantime but ask
what you would have reformed that is not well...

1134
01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:20,159
...and well shall you perceive how willingly
I will both hear and grant you your requests

1135
01:42:20,399 --> 01:42:25,399
Then I, as one that am the tongue of these,
to sound the purposes of all their hearts...

1136
01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:29,560
...both for myself and them,
but, chief of all, your safety...

1137
01:42:29,920 --> 01:42:32,640
...for the which myself and them
bend their best studies...

1138
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:35,800
...heartily request the enfranchisement of Arthur

1139
01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:41,439
Whose restraint doth move
the murmuring lips...

1140
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:45,239
...of discontent to break
into this dangerous argument

1141
01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:49,960
If what in rest you have in right you hold,
why then, your fears...

1142
01:42:50,079 --> 01:42:52,600
...which, as they say,
attend the steps of wrong...

1143
01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:55,279
...should move you to mew up
your tender kinsman?

1144
01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:57,880
And to choke his days
with barbarous ignorance...

1145
01:42:58,039 --> 01:43:01,439
...and deny his youth the rich advantage
of good exercise?

1146
01:43:04,079 --> 01:43:07,119
That the time's enemies may not have this
to grace occasions...

1147
01:43:07,239 --> 01:43:10,920
...let it be our suit
that you have bid us ask his liberty

1148
01:43:11,079 --> 01:43:15,119
Which for our goods we do no further ask
than whereupon our weal, on you depending...

1149
01:43:15,279 --> 01:43:18,439
...counts it your weal he have his liberty

1150
01:43:18,840 --> 01:43:19,960
Let it be so.

1151
01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:24,199
I do commit his youth to your direction

1152
01:43:25,079 --> 01:43:27,079
Hubert, what news with you?

1153
01:43:30,039 --> 01:43:34,720
This is the man should do the bloody deed.
He showed his warrant to a friend of mine

1154
01:43:35,239 --> 01:43:38,039
The image of a wicked heinous fault
lives in his eye

1155
01:43:38,199 --> 01:43:42,960
That close aspect of his
does show the mood of a much troubled breast

1156
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:47,359
And I do fearfully believe 'tis done,
what we so feared he had a charge to do

1157
01:43:47,520 --> 01:43:51,079
The colour of the king doth come and go
between his purpose and his conscience

1158
01:43:51,239 --> 01:43:53,720
His passion is so ripe, it needs must break

1159
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:57,920
And when it breaks, I fear will issue thence
the foul corruption of a sweet child's death

1160
01:43:58,039 --> 01:44:01,119
We cannot hold mortality's strong hand

1161
01:44:03,319 --> 01:44:04,399
Good lords...

1162
01:44:05,239 --> 01:44:07,159
...although my will to give is living...

1163
01:44:09,279 --> 01:44:12,000
...the suit which you demand
is gone and dead

1164
01:44:13,399 --> 01:44:16,039
He tells us Arthur is deceased to-night

1165
01:44:17,880 --> 01:44:22,199
Indeed, we feared his sickness was past cure

1166
01:44:23,039 --> 01:44:29,840
Indeed, we heard how near his death he was
before the child himself felt he was sick

1167
01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:37,279
- This must be answered either here or hence
- Why do you bend such solemn brows on me?

1168
01:44:38,399 --> 01:44:40,640
Think you I bear the shears of destiny?

1169
01:44:41,520 --> 01:44:43,800
Have I commandment on the pulse of life?

1170
01:44:43,920 --> 01:44:50,039
It is apparent foul play, and 'tis shame
that greatness should so grossly offer it

1171
01:44:50,199 --> 01:44:54,359
- So thrive it in your game! And so, farewell
- Stay yet, Lord Salisbury. I'll go with thee...

1172
01:44:54,680 --> 01:44:58,640
...and find the inheritance of this poor child,
his little kingdom of a forced grave

1173
01:45:00,880 --> 01:45:04,399
That blood which owed
the breadth of all this isle...

1174
01:45:05,319 --> 01:45:07,359
...three foot of it doth hold

1175
01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:10,359
Bad world the while!

1176
01:45:11,119 --> 01:45:12,520
This must not be thus borne

1177
01:45:12,800 --> 01:45:16,439
This will break out
to all our sorrows, and ere long I doubt

1178
01:45:21,079 --> 01:45:23,239
They burn in indignation

1179
01:45:36,399 --> 01:45:37,760
I repent

1180
01:45:41,560 --> 01:45:49,960
There is no sure foundation set on blood,
no certain life achieved by others' death

1181
01:45:54,479 --> 01:46:00,399
A fearful eye thou hast. Where is that blood
that I have seen inhabit in those cheeks?

1182
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:06,279
So foul a sky clears not without a storm.
Pour down thy weather

1183
01:46:06,880 --> 01:46:09,119
- How goes all in France?
- From France to England

1184
01:46:09,479 --> 01:46:13,119
Never such a power for any foreign preparation
was levied in the body of a land

1185
01:46:13,319 --> 01:46:15,479
The copy of your speed is learned by them

1186
01:46:15,600 --> 01:46:18,439
For when you should be told they do prepare,
the tidings come...

1187
01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:19,840
...that they are all arrived

1188
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:24,399
O, where hath our intelligence been drunk?
Where hath it slept?

1189
01:46:25,359 --> 01:46:29,680
Where is my mother's care, that such an army
could be drawn in France, and she not hear of it?

1190
01:46:29,880 --> 01:46:33,199
My liege, her ear is stopped with dust.

1191
01:46:34,239 --> 01:46:36,279
The first of April died your noble mother

1192
01:46:37,239 --> 01:46:42,079
And, as I hear, my lord, the Lady Constance
in a frenzy died three days before

1193
01:46:42,279 --> 01:46:45,520
But this from rumour's tongue I idly heard.
If true or false I know not

1194
01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:47,520
Withhold thy speed, dreadful occasion

1195
01:46:52,520 --> 01:46:53,520
What?

1196
01:46:58,560 --> 01:47:00,000
Mother dead?

1197
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:06,319
How wildly then walks my estate in France.

1198
01:47:06,479 --> 01:47:08,920
Under whose conduct
came those powers of France

1199
01:47:09,039 --> 01:47:11,439
that thou for truth givest out are landed here?

1200
01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:15,239
- Under the Dauphin
- Thou hast made me giddy with these ill tidings

1201
01:47:16,159 --> 01:47:18,359
Now, what says the world to your proceedings?

1202
01:47:18,680 --> 01:47:22,159
Do not seek to stuff my head with more ill news,
for it is full

1203
01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:26,720
But if you be afeard to hear the worst,
then let the worst unheard fall on your head

1204
01:47:28,159 --> 01:47:31,640
The French are here. Men's mouths are full of it

1205
01:47:33,079 --> 01:47:37,319
And as I travelled hither through the land,
I find the people strangely fantasied

1206
01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:42,840
Possessed with rumours, full of idle dreams,
not knowing what they fear, but full of fear

1207
01:47:43,600 --> 01:47:48,680
Besides, I met Lord Pembroke and Lord Salisbury,
with eyes as red as new-enkindled fire...

1208
01:47:48,880 --> 01:47:51,279
...and others more,
going to seek the grave of Arthur...

1209
01:47:51,399 --> 01:47:53,840
...whom they say
is killed to-night on your suggestion

1210
01:47:54,079 --> 01:47:57,560
Gentle kinsman, go,
and thrust thyself into their companies

1211
01:47:57,720 --> 01:48:00,680
I have a way to win their loves again.
Bring them before me

1212
01:48:00,880 --> 01:48:04,159
- I will seek them out
- Nay, but make haste, the better foot before

1213
01:48:04,760 --> 01:48:07,039
O, let me have no subject enemies...

1214
01:48:07,279 --> 01:48:12,079
...when adverse foreigners affright my towns
with dreadful pomp of stout invasion

1215
01:48:12,760 --> 01:48:17,479
Be Mercury, set feathers to thy heels,
and fly like thought from them to me again

1216
01:48:17,600 --> 01:48:19,520
The spirit of the time shall teach me speed

1217
01:48:55,319 --> 01:48:56,680
My mother dead!

1218
01:48:56,880 --> 01:49:02,720
My lord, my lord,
they say five moons were seen to-night

1219
01:49:03,439 --> 01:49:07,560
Four fixed, and the fifth did whirl about
the other four in wondrous motion

1220
01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:08,640
Five moons!

1221
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:12,479
Old men and beldams in the streets
do prophesy upon it dangerously

1222
01:49:12,640 --> 01:49:15,720
Young Arthur's death is common
in their mouths

1223
01:49:15,840 --> 01:49:18,319
And when they talk of him,
they shake their heads...

1224
01:49:18,560 --> 01:49:23,159
...and whisper one another in the ears
with wrinkled brows, with nods, with rolling eyes

1225
01:49:23,439 --> 01:49:25,880
Why seekest thou to possess me
with these fears?

1226
01:49:28,279 --> 01:49:31,640
Why urgest thou so oft young Arthur's death?

1227
01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:35,600
Thy hand hath murdered him

1228
01:49:37,479 --> 01:49:42,600
I had a mighty cause to wish him dead,
but thou hadst none to kill him

1229
01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:46,000
No cause, my lord!
Why, did you not provoke me?

1230
01:49:46,199 --> 01:49:50,399
It is the curse of kings
to be attended by slaves...

1231
01:49:51,399 --> 01:49:55,319
...that take their humours for a warrant
to break within the bloody house of life

1232
01:49:56,359 --> 01:49:58,000
And on the winking of authority...

1233
01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:04,640
...to understand a law,
to know the meaning of dangerous majesty...

1234
01:50:04,800 --> 01:50:08,800
...when perchance it frowns
more upon humour than advised respect

1235
01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:10,960
Here is your hand and seal for what I did

1236
01:50:11,119 --> 01:50:14,479
O, when the last account 'twixt heaven and earth
is to be made...

1237
01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:18,439
...then shall this hand and seal
witness against us to damnation

1238
01:50:19,119 --> 01:50:23,399
How oft the sight of means to do ill deeds
makes deeds ill done

1239
01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:28,640
Hadst not thou been by,
a fellow by the hand of nature marked...

1240
01:50:28,840 --> 01:50:32,760
...quoted and signed to do a deed of shame,
this murder had not come into my mind

1241
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:38,880
But taking note of thy abhorred aspect,
finding thee fit for bloody villainy...

1242
01:50:39,399 --> 01:50:44,720
...apt, liable to be employed in danger,
I faintly broke with thee of Arthur's death

1243
01:50:44,920 --> 01:50:50,960
And thou, to be endeared to a king,
made it no conscience to destroy a prince

1244
01:50:51,199 --> 01:50:52,319
My lord...

1245
01:50:54,159 --> 01:50:58,680
Hadst thou but shook thy head or made a pause
when I spake darkly what I purposed...

1246
01:50:59,439 --> 01:51:04,920
...or turned an eye of doubt upon my face,
as bid me tell my tale in express words...

1247
01:51:05,079 --> 01:51:09,439
...deep shame had struck me dumb,
made me break off...

1248
01:51:10,239 --> 01:51:12,840
...and those thy fears might
have wrought fears in me

1249
01:51:13,079 --> 01:51:18,079
But thou didst understand me by my signs
and didst in signs again parley with sin

1250
01:51:18,319 --> 01:51:20,560
Yea, without stop...

1251
01:51:20,960 --> 01:51:24,760
...didst let thy heart consent, and consequently
thy rude hand to act the deed...

1252
01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:27,600
...which both our tongues held vile to name.

1253
01:51:27,800 --> 01:51:30,680
Out of my sight, and never see me more!

1254
01:51:33,239 --> 01:51:39,920
My nobles leave me, and my state is braved,
even at my gates, with ranks of foreign powers

1255
01:51:40,239 --> 01:51:47,760
Nay, in the body of this fleshly land,
this kingdom, this confine of blood and breath...

1256
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:53,399
...hostility and civil tumult reigns
between my conscience and my cousin's death

1257
01:51:56,520 --> 01:52:01,159
Arm you against your other enemies,
I'll make a peace between your soul and you

1258
01:52:05,399 --> 01:52:07,000
Young Arthur is alive.

1259
01:52:09,239 --> 01:52:12,800
This hand of mine
is yet a maiden and an innocent hand...

1260
01:52:13,479 --> 01:52:15,920
...not painted with the crimson spots of blood

1261
01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:25,000
Within this bosom never entered yet
the dreadful motion of a murderous thought

1262
01:52:26,119 --> 01:52:31,319
And you have slandered nature in my form...

1263
01:52:33,439 --> 01:52:35,600
...which, howsoever rude exteriorly...

1264
01:52:36,600 --> 01:52:41,800
...is yet the cover of a fairer mind
than to be butcher of an innocent child

1265
01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:49,279
Doth Arthur live?

1266
01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:54,479
O, haste thee to the peers...

1267
01:52:55,640 --> 01:52:58,279
...throw this report on their
incensed rage...

1268
01:52:58,479 --> 01:53:00,840
...and make them tame to their obedience

1269
01:53:03,239 --> 01:53:06,840
Forgive the comment
that my passion made upon thy feature

1270
01:53:07,600 --> 01:53:09,000
For my rage was blind...

1271
01:53:09,279 --> 01:53:14,560
...and foul imaginary eyes of blood
presented thee more hideous than thou art

1272
01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:23,880
O, answer not, but to my closet bring
the angry lords with all expedient haste

1273
01:53:27,039 --> 01:53:30,720
I conjure thee but slowly. Run more fast!

1274
01:54:37,439 --> 01:54:39,560
I will meet Lewis at Saint Edmundsbury

1275
01:54:43,119 --> 01:54:48,359
It is our safety, and we must embrace
this gentle offer of the perilous time

1276
01:54:48,479 --> 01:54:51,319
- Who sent this letter from the cardinal?
- Lord Chatillon, Ambassador of France

1277
01:54:51,439 --> 01:54:56,199
Whose private with me of the Dauphin's love
is much more general than these lines import

1278
01:55:01,840 --> 01:55:03,600
To-morrow morning let us meet him, then

1279
01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:05,720
Once more to-day well met, distempered lords!

1280
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:08,159
The king by me requests your presence straight

1281
01:55:08,319 --> 01:55:11,079
The king hath dispossessed himself of us

1282
01:55:12,439 --> 01:55:16,680
We will not line his thin bestained cloak
with our pure honours...

1283
01:55:16,840 --> 01:55:20,119
...nor attend the foot
that leaves the print of blood where'er it walks

1284
01:55:20,960 --> 01:55:23,199
Return and tell him so. We know the worst

1285
01:55:23,399 --> 01:55:27,039
Whate'er you think,
good words, I think, were best

1286
01:55:27,199 --> 01:55:29,119
Our griefs, and not our manners, reason now

1287
01:55:29,319 --> 01:55:32,680
But there is little reason in your grief.
Therefore 'twere reason you had manners now

1288
01:55:32,800 --> 01:55:38,079
- Sir, sir, impatience hath his privilege
- 'Tis true, to hurt his master, no man else

1289
01:55:38,279 --> 01:55:39,560
What is he lies here?

1290
01:55:48,640 --> 01:55:52,840
O, death, made proud
with pure and princely beauty!

1291
01:55:54,479 --> 01:55:56,680
The earth had not a hole to hide this deed

1292
01:55:56,840 --> 01:56:04,239
Murder, as hating what himself hath done,
doth lay it open to urge on revenge

1293
01:56:05,279 --> 01:56:09,760
This is the bloodiest shame,
the wildest savagery, the vilest stroke...

1294
01:56:09,880 --> 01:56:13,600
...that ever wall-eyed wrath or staring rage
presented to the tears of soft remorse

1295
01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:19,359
All murders past do stand excused in this.
And this, so sole and so unmatchable...

1296
01:56:19,560 --> 01:56:23,079
...shall give a holiness, a purity,
to the yet unbegotten sin of times...

1297
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:27,840
...and prove a deadly bloodshed but a jest,
exampled by this heinous spectacle

1298
01:56:28,039 --> 01:56:29,800
It is a damned and a bloody work

1299
01:56:31,079 --> 01:56:34,640
The graceless action of a heavy hand,
if that it be the work of any hand

1300
01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:36,520
If that it be the work of any hand!

1301
01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:43,039
We had a kind of light what would ensue.
It is the shameful work of Hubert's hand

1302
01:56:43,199 --> 01:56:47,720
The practice and the purpose of the king,
from whose obedience I forbid my soul

1303
01:56:48,359 --> 01:56:51,439
Lords, I am hot with haste...

1304
01:56:51,760 --> 01:56:55,039
...in seeking you. Arthur doth live.
The king hath sent for you

1305
01:56:55,239 --> 01:57:00,279
O, he is bold and blushes not at death.
Avaunt, thou hateful villain, get thee gone!

1306
01:57:00,399 --> 01:57:02,119
- I am no villain
- Must I rob the law?

1307
01:57:02,199 --> 01:57:06,199
- Your blade is bright, sir. Put it up again
- Not till I sheathe it in a murderer's skin

1308
01:57:10,800 --> 01:57:16,159
Stand back, Lord Salisbury, stand back, I say.
By heaven, I think my blade's as sharp as yours

1309
01:57:16,600 --> 01:57:20,920
I would not have you, lord, forget yourself,
nor tempt the danger of my true defence

1310
01:57:21,359 --> 01:57:26,079
Lest I, by marking of your rage, forget
your worth, your greatness and nobility

1311
01:57:26,239 --> 01:57:29,600
Out, dunghill! Darest thou brave a nobleman?

1312
01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:34,199
Not for my life. But yet I dare defend
my innocent life against an emperor

1313
01:57:34,279 --> 01:57:36,119
- Thou art a murderer
- Do not prove me so

1314
01:57:36,279 --> 01:57:39,039
Yet am I none.
Whose tongue soe'er speaks false...

1315
01:57:39,159 --> 01:57:42,239
...not truly speaks.
Who speaks not truly, lies

1316
01:57:42,319 --> 01:57:44,239
- Cut him to pieces
- Keep the peace, I say

1317
01:57:44,399 --> 01:57:48,439
- Stand by, or I shall gall you, Faulconbridge
- Thou wert better gall the devil, Salisbury

1318
01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:52,399
If thou but frown on me, or stir thy foot,
or teach thy hasty spleen to do me shame...

1319
01:57:52,479 --> 01:57:55,079
...I'll strike thee dead.
Put up thy blade betime...

1320
01:57:55,159 --> 01:57:59,279
...or I'll so maul you and your toasting-iron,
that you shall think the devil is come from hell

1321
01:57:59,399 --> 01:58:02,760
What wilt thou do, renowned Faulconbridge?
Second a villain and a murderer?

1322
01:58:02,880 --> 01:58:05,199
- Lord Pembroke, I am none
- Who killed this prince?

1323
01:58:14,560 --> 01:58:17,039
'Tis not an hour since I left him well

1324
01:58:19,680 --> 01:58:21,039
I honoured him...

1325
01:58:22,760 --> 01:58:28,439
...I loved him, and will weep
my date of life out for his sweet life's loss

1326
01:58:30,039 --> 01:58:35,560
Trust not the cunning waters of his eyes,
for villainy is not without such rheum

1327
01:58:35,720 --> 01:58:40,920
And he, long traded in it, makes it seem
like rivers of remorse and innocency

1328
01:58:42,479 --> 01:58:43,720
Away with me...

1329
01:58:43,880 --> 01:58:47,479
...all you whose souls abhor
the uncleanly savours of a slaughter-house

1330
01:58:47,680 --> 01:58:49,960
For I am stifled with this smell of sin

1331
01:58:50,119 --> 01:58:57,279
Away toward Bury, to the Dauphin there.
There tell the king he may inquire us out

1332
01:58:59,239 --> 01:59:01,039
Here's a good world!

1333
01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:11,479
Knew you of this fair work?

1334
01:59:15,079 --> 01:59:17,760
Beyond the infinite
and boundless reach of mercy...

1335
01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:21,439
...if thou didst this deed of death,
art thou damned, Hubert

1336
01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:24,640
- Do but hear me, sir
- Ha! I'll tell thee what

1337
01:59:24,760 --> 01:59:27,239
Thou art more deep damned than Prince Lucifer

1338
01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:32,680
There is not yet so ugly a fiend of hell
as thou shalt be, if thou didst kill this child

1339
01:59:32,880 --> 01:59:33,800
Upon my soul...

1340
01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:36,800
If thou didst but consent
to this most cruel act, do but despair

1341
01:59:37,720 --> 01:59:43,000
And if thou want'st a cord, the smallest thread
that ever spider twisted from her womb...

1342
01:59:43,199 --> 01:59:47,840
...will serve to strangle thee,
a rush will be a beam to hang thee on

1343
01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:51,600
Or wouldst thou drown thyself,
put but a little water in a spoon...

1344
01:59:51,800 --> 01:59:55,720
...and it shall be as all the ocean,
enough to stifle such a villain up

1345
01:59:56,039 --> 01:59:59,079
I do suspect thee very grievously

1346
01:59:59,279 --> 02:00:07,079
If I in act, consent, or sin of thought,
be guilty of the stealing that sweet breath...

1347
02:00:07,520 --> 02:00:14,319
...which was embounded in this beauteous clay,
then let hell want pains enough to torture me

1348
02:00:19,039 --> 02:00:20,800
I left him well

1349
02:00:30,680 --> 02:00:31,840
Go...

1350
02:00:35,279 --> 02:00:37,000
...bear him in thine arms

1351
02:00:44,720 --> 02:00:49,279
I am amazed, methinks, and lose my way
among the thorns and dangers of this world

1352
02:00:53,239 --> 02:00:56,800
How easy dost thou take all England up!

1353
02:00:58,880 --> 02:01:01,760
From forth this morsel of dead royalty...

1354
02:01:02,760 --> 02:01:07,479
...the life, the right and truth
of all this realm is fled to heaven

1355
02:01:09,039 --> 02:01:12,840
And England now is left to tug and scamble
and to part by the teeth...

1356
02:01:13,079 --> 02:01:16,640
...the unowed interest of proud-swelling state

1357
02:01:18,640 --> 02:01:21,199
Now for the bare-picked bone of majesty...

1358
02:01:22,359 --> 02:01:28,399
...doth dogged war bristle his angry crest
and snarleth in the gentle eyes of peace

1359
02:01:30,560 --> 02:01:37,000
Now powers from home and discontents at home
meet in one line, and vast confusion waits...

1360
02:01:37,199 --> 02:01:42,159
...as doth a raven on a sick-fallen beast,
the imminent decay of wrested pomp

1361
02:01:45,680 --> 02:01:49,800
Now happy he whose cloak and cincture
can hold out this tempest

1362
02:01:54,439 --> 02:01:58,239
Bear away that child and follow me with speed.
I'll to the king

1363
02:02:03,119 --> 02:02:05,319
A thousand businesses are brief in hand...

1364
02:02:08,399 --> 02:02:11,039
...and heaven itself doth frown upon the land

1365
02:03:13,079 --> 02:03:17,760
Thus have I yielded up into your hand
the circle of my glory

1366
02:03:25,720 --> 02:03:28,399
Take again from this my hand...

1367
02:03:28,920 --> 02:03:32,520
...as holding of the pope,
your sovereign greatness and authority

1368
02:03:32,720 --> 02:03:36,359
Now keep your holy word.
Go meet the French...

1369
02:03:36,520 --> 02:03:41,199
...and from his holiness use all your power
to stop their marches 'fore we are inflamed

1370
02:03:42,640 --> 02:03:46,920
Our discontented counties do revolt,
our people quarrel with obedience...

1371
02:03:47,520 --> 02:03:51,640
...swearing allegiance and the love of soul
to stranger blood, to foreign royalty

1372
02:03:54,079 --> 02:03:59,119
This inundation of mistempered humour
rests by you only to be qualified

1373
02:04:00,119 --> 02:04:02,720
Then pause not.
For the present time's so sick...

1374
02:04:02,920 --> 02:04:07,600
...that present medicine must be ministered,
or overthrow incurable ensues

1375
02:04:09,000 --> 02:04:15,159
It was my breath that blew this tempest up,
upon your stubborn usage of the pope

1376
02:04:15,359 --> 02:04:19,399
But since you are a gentle convertite...

1377
02:04:19,680 --> 02:04:25,039
...my tongue shall hush again this storm of war
and make fair weather in your blustering land

1378
02:04:38,920 --> 02:04:41,159
On this Ascension Day, remember well...

1379
02:04:41,760 --> 02:04:47,079
...that upon your oath of service to the pope,
go I to make the French lay down their arms

1380
02:05:24,399 --> 02:05:28,520
All Kent hath yielded,
nothing there holds out but Dover castle

1381
02:05:29,039 --> 02:05:33,000
London hath received,
like a kind host, the Dauphin and his powers

1382
02:05:34,119 --> 02:05:38,039
Your nobles will not hear you, but are gone
to offer service to your enemy

1383
02:05:38,479 --> 02:05:42,119
And wild amazement hurries up and down
the little number of your doubtful friends

1384
02:05:42,319 --> 02:05:45,840
Would not my lords return to me again,
after they heard young Arthur was alive?

1385
02:05:46,000 --> 02:05:47,159
They found him dead...

1386
02:05:49,439 --> 02:05:50,720
...and cast into the streets

1387
02:05:53,319 --> 02:05:55,279
An empty casket, where the jewel of life...

1388
02:05:55,399 --> 02:05:58,720
...by some damned hand
was robbed and ta'en away

1389
02:05:58,840 --> 02:06:03,239
- That villain Hubert told me he did live
- So, on my soul, he did, for aught he knew

1390
02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:12,279
But wherefore do you droop?

1391
02:06:15,600 --> 02:06:18,920
Why look you sad?
Be great in act, as you have been in thought

1392
02:06:21,560 --> 02:06:25,640
Let not the world see fear and sad distrust
govern the motion of a kingly eye

1393
02:06:26,640 --> 02:06:30,800
Be stirring as the time, be fire with fire

1394
02:06:31,479 --> 02:06:34,439
Threaten the threatener
and outface the brow of bragging horror

1395
02:06:35,279 --> 02:06:38,640
So shall inferior eyes,
that borrow their behaviours from the great...

1396
02:06:39,079 --> 02:06:43,960
...grow great by your example
and put on the dauntless spirit of resolution

1397
02:06:44,159 --> 02:06:48,039
Away, and glister like the god of war,
when he intendeth to become the field

1398
02:06:49,119 --> 02:06:51,159
Show boldness and aspiring confidence

1399
02:06:51,359 --> 02:06:53,520
What, shall they seek the lion in his den...

1400
02:06:53,720 --> 02:06:56,199
...and fright him there?
And make him tremble there?

1401
02:06:56,399 --> 02:06:57,920
O, let it not be said

1402
02:06:58,079 --> 02:07:01,079
Forage, and run to meet displeasure
farther from the doors...

1403
02:07:01,399 --> 02:07:03,399
...and grapple with him ere he comes so nigh

1404
02:07:03,520 --> 02:07:07,439
The legate of the pope hath been with me,
and I have made a happy peace with him

1405
02:07:07,840 --> 02:07:11,720
And he hath promised to dismiss the powers
led by the Dauphin

1406
02:07:11,840 --> 02:07:13,720
O, inglorious league!

1407
02:07:15,000 --> 02:07:17,000
Shall we, upon the footing of our land...

1408
02:07:17,199 --> 02:07:19,359
...send fair-play orders and make compromise...

1409
02:07:19,880 --> 02:07:23,560
...insinuation, parley
and base truce to arms invasive?

1410
02:07:24,279 --> 02:07:27,680
Shall a beardless boy,
a cockered silken wanton...

1411
02:07:27,840 --> 02:07:31,199
...brave our fields,
and flesh his spirit in a warlike soil...

1412
02:07:31,560 --> 02:07:35,279
...mocking the air with colours idly spread,
and find no check?

1413
02:07:42,159 --> 02:07:44,520
Let us, my liege, to arms.

1414
02:07:46,720 --> 02:07:48,880
Perchance the cardinal cannot make your peace

1415
02:07:49,880 --> 02:07:54,199
Or if he do, let it at least be said
they saw we had a purpose of defence

1416
02:07:57,560 --> 02:08:00,039
Have thou the ordering of this present time

1417
02:08:02,760 --> 02:08:05,840
Away, then, with good courage

1418
02:08:37,960 --> 02:08:42,399
Lord Chatillon, let this be copied out,
and keep it safe for our remembrance...

1419
02:08:42,560 --> 02:08:44,800
...and return the precedent to these lords again

1420
02:08:45,359 --> 02:08:51,159
That, having our fair order written down,
both they and we, perusing o'er these notes...

1421
02:08:51,319 --> 02:08:56,560
...may know wherefore we took the sacrament
and keep our faiths firm and inviolable

1422
02:08:56,880 --> 02:08:58,800
Upon our sides it never shall be broken

1423
02:08:59,800 --> 02:09:06,279
And, noble Dauphin, albeit we swear a voluntary
zeal and an unurged faith to your proceedings...

1424
02:09:06,479 --> 02:09:07,920
...yet believe me, prince...

1425
02:09:08,359 --> 02:09:13,600
...I am not glad that such a sore of time
should seek a plaster by contemned revolt...

1426
02:09:14,039 --> 02:09:17,159
...and heal the inveterate canker of one wound
by making many

1427
02:09:19,600 --> 02:09:24,359
It grieves my soul that I must draw this metal
from my side to be a widow-maker

1428
02:09:24,520 --> 02:09:26,439
But such is the infection of the time...

1429
02:09:26,640 --> 02:09:30,520
...that we, the sons and children of this isle,
were born to see so sad an hour as this

1430
02:09:31,600 --> 02:09:35,239
Wherein we step after a stranger march upon
her gentle bosom...

1431
02:09:35,359 --> 02:09:36,920
...and fill up her enemies' ranks

1432
02:09:37,119 --> 02:09:38,960
A noble temper dost thou show in this

1433
02:09:40,159 --> 02:09:44,920
And great affections wrestling in thy bosom
doth make an earthquake of nobility

1434
02:09:45,079 --> 02:09:52,199
O, what a noble combat hast thou fought
between compulsion and a brave respect!

1435
02:09:52,720 --> 02:09:58,000
Lift up thy brow, renowned Salisbury,
and with a great heart heave away the storm

1436
02:09:58,439 --> 02:10:03,279
Commend these waters to those baby eyes
that never saw the giant world enraged

1437
02:10:03,479 --> 02:10:06,399
Come, come,
for thou shalt thrust thy hand...

1438
02:10:06,520 --> 02:10:10,520
...as deep into the purse
of rich prosperity as Lewis himself

1439
02:10:10,720 --> 02:10:15,760
So, nobles, shall you all,
that knit your sinews to the strength of mine

1440
02:10:16,560 --> 02:10:18,800
And even there, methinks, an angel spake

1441
02:10:18,960 --> 02:10:23,920
Look, where the holy legate comes apace,
to give us warrant from the hand of heaven

1442
02:10:24,600 --> 02:10:28,239
And on our actions set the name of right
with holy breath

1443
02:10:28,920 --> 02:10:30,560
Hail, noble prince of France!

1444
02:10:31,840 --> 02:10:38,880
The next is this,
King John hath reconciled himself to Rome

1445
02:10:40,319 --> 02:10:45,039
Therefore thy threatening colours now wind up
and tame that savage spirit of wild war

1446
02:10:45,680 --> 02:10:48,760
That like a lion fostered up at hand...

1447
02:10:48,920 --> 02:10:52,560
...it may lie gently at the foot of peace,
and be no further harmful than in show

1448
02:10:52,720 --> 02:10:54,800
Your grace shall pardon me, I will not back

1449
02:10:56,680 --> 02:11:04,119
I am too high-born to be propertied,
to be a secondary at control...

1450
02:11:04,239 --> 02:11:10,680
...and useful serving-man and instrument,
to any sovereign state throughout the world

1451
02:11:11,800 --> 02:11:17,720
Your breath first kindled the dead coal of wars
between this chastised kingdom and myself...

1452
02:11:18,000 --> 02:11:20,560
...and brought in matter
that should feed this fire

1453
02:11:20,880 --> 02:11:27,000
And now 'tis far too huge to be blown out
with that same weak wind which enkindled it

1454
02:11:28,479 --> 02:11:33,439
You taught me to know the face of right,
acquainted me with interest to this land

1455
02:11:33,680 --> 02:11:36,439
Yea, thrust this enterprise into my heart

1456
02:11:36,640 --> 02:11:39,720
And come ye now to tell me
John hath made his peace with Rome?

1457
02:11:41,880 --> 02:11:43,479
What is that peace to me?

1458
02:11:44,800 --> 02:11:50,239
I, by the honour of my marriage-bed,
after young Arthur, claim this land for mine

1459
02:11:50,359 --> 02:11:52,119
And, now it is half-conquered...

1460
02:11:52,359 --> 02:11:55,359
...must I back because that John hath made
his peace with Rome?

1461
02:11:57,039 --> 02:11:58,640
Am I Rome's slave?

1462
02:12:00,039 --> 02:12:03,000
What penny hath Rome borne,
what men provided...

1463
02:12:03,199 --> 02:12:05,840
...what munition sent,
to underprop this action?

1464
02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:08,279
Is't not I that undergo this charge?

1465
02:12:08,840 --> 02:12:12,840
Who else but I,
and such as to my claim are liable...

1466
02:12:13,079 --> 02:12:16,199
...sweat in this business and maintain this war?

1467
02:12:16,840 --> 02:12:21,720
Have I not heard these islanders shout out
"Vive le roi!" as I have banked their towns?

1468
02:12:22,159 --> 02:12:27,439
Have I not here the best cards for the game,
to win this easy match played for a crown?

1469
02:12:27,760 --> 02:12:30,000
And shall I now give o'er the yielded set?

1470
02:12:31,319 --> 02:12:36,039
No, no, on my soul, it never shall be said

1471
02:12:36,399 --> 02:12:38,600
You look but on the outside of this work

1472
02:12:38,800 --> 02:12:42,560
Outside or inside, I will not return
till my attempt so much be glorified...

1473
02:12:42,840 --> 02:12:47,560
...as to my ample hope was promised
before I drew this gallant head of war...

1474
02:12:47,720 --> 02:12:53,720
...and culled these fiery spirits from the world,
to outlook conquest and to win renown...

1475
02:12:53,960 --> 02:12:56,479
...even in the jaws of danger and of death

1476
02:12:56,600 --> 02:13:00,239
According to the fair play of the world,
let me have audience. I am sent to speak

1477
02:13:04,319 --> 02:13:08,479
My holy lord of Milan, from the king I come,
to learn how you have dealt for him

1478
02:13:09,439 --> 02:13:13,199
And, as you answer, I do know the scope
and warrant limited unto my tongue

1479
02:13:17,119 --> 02:13:22,239
The noble Dauphin is too wilful-opposite,
he will not temporize with my entreaties

1480
02:13:22,399 --> 02:13:24,680
He flatly says he'll not lay down his arms

1481
02:13:25,159 --> 02:13:28,439
By all the blood that ever fury breathed,
the youth says well

1482
02:13:30,119 --> 02:13:35,199
Now hear our English king,
for thus his royalty doth speak in me

1483
02:13:37,800 --> 02:13:42,000
He is prepared, and reason too he should

1484
02:13:43,479 --> 02:13:49,960
This apish and unmannerly approach,
this harnessed masque and unadvised revel...

1485
02:13:50,159 --> 02:13:55,479
...this unhaired sauciness and boyish troops,
the king doth smile at...

1486
02:13:56,680 --> 02:13:58,840
...and is well prepared
to whip this dwarfish war...

1487
02:13:58,960 --> 02:14:02,119
...these pigmy arms,
from out the circle of his territories

1488
02:14:04,479 --> 02:14:07,119
That hand which had the strength...

1489
02:14:07,279 --> 02:14:10,359
...even at your door,
to cudgel you and make you take the hatch

1490
02:14:10,520 --> 02:14:17,119
Shall that victorious hand be feebled here,
that in your chambers gave you chastisement?

1491
02:14:20,479 --> 02:14:21,560
No

1492
02:14:23,560 --> 02:14:25,880
Know the gallant monarch is in arms

1493
02:14:26,640 --> 02:14:32,119
And like an eagle o'er his aery towers,
to souse annoyance that comes near his nest

1494
02:14:32,880 --> 02:14:39,520
And you degenerate, you ingrate revolts,
you bloody Neroes...

1495
02:14:39,720 --> 02:14:42,319
...ripping up the womb of your
dear mother England...

1496
02:14:42,560 --> 02:14:43,960
...blush for shame

1497
02:14:44,760 --> 02:14:50,319
For your own ladies and pale-visaged maids
like Amazons come tripping after drums...

1498
02:14:50,600 --> 02:14:55,159
...their thimbles into armed gauntlets change,
their needles to lances...

1499
02:14:55,359 --> 02:14:58,640
...and their gentle hearts
to fierce and bloody inclination

1500
02:14:58,840 --> 02:15:05,279
There end thy brave, and turn thy face in peace.
We grant thou canst outscold us

1501
02:15:05,479 --> 02:15:10,039
Fare thee well. We hold our time too precious
to be spent with such a brabbler

1502
02:15:10,199 --> 02:15:12,159
- Give me leave to speak
- No, I will speak

1503
02:15:12,359 --> 02:15:13,680
We will attend to neither

1504
02:15:13,840 --> 02:15:18,319
Strike up the drums, and let the tongue of war
plead for our interest and our being here

1505
02:15:18,520 --> 02:15:23,319
Indeed your drums, being beaten, will cry out.
And so shall you, being beaten

1506
02:15:24,560 --> 02:15:27,000
Do but start an echo
with the clamour of thy drum...

1507
02:15:27,359 --> 02:15:31,680
...and even at hand a drum is ready braced
that shall reverberate all as loud as thine

1508
02:15:32,319 --> 02:15:35,640
Sound but another,
and another shall as loud as thine...

1509
02:15:35,760 --> 02:15:39,119
...rattle the welkin's ear
and mock the deep-mouthed thunder

1510
02:15:39,279 --> 02:15:43,039
For at hand,
not trusting to this halting legate here...

1511
02:15:43,199 --> 02:15:47,319
...whom he hath used for sport rather than need,
is warlike John

1512
02:15:47,640 --> 02:15:50,159
And in his forehead sits a bare-ribbed death...

1513
02:15:50,359 --> 02:15:54,560
...whose office is this day
to feast upon whole thousands of the French

1514
02:15:54,720 --> 02:15:58,600
Strike up our drums, to find this danger out

1515
02:15:58,760 --> 02:16:01,439
And thou shalt find it, Dauphin, do not doubt

1516
02:17:05,120 --> 02:17:09,520
My lord, your valiant kinsman, Faulconbridge,
desires your majesty to leave the field...

1517
02:17:09,680 --> 02:17:13,879
- ...and send him word by me which way you go
- Tell him, toward Swinstead, to the abbey there

1518
02:17:14,000 --> 02:17:16,079
I did not think the king so stored with friends

1519
02:17:16,239 --> 02:17:20,559
Up once again, put spirit in the French.
If they miscarry, we miscarry too

1520
02:17:20,719 --> 02:17:24,920
That misbegotten devil, Faulconbridge,
in spite of spite, alone upholds the day

1521
02:17:25,120 --> 02:17:27,120
Lead me to the revolts of England here

1522
02:17:27,319 --> 02:17:29,760
- Chatillon
- Wounded to death

1523
02:17:31,920 --> 02:17:34,559
Fly, noble English, you are bought and sold

1524
02:17:35,200 --> 02:17:39,799
Unthread the rude eye of rebellion
and welcome home again discarded faith

1525
02:17:40,200 --> 02:17:45,840
Seek out King John and fall before his feet.
For if Lewis be lord of this loud day...

1526
02:17:46,079 --> 02:17:50,479
...he means to recompense the pains you take
by cutting off your heads

1527
02:17:52,079 --> 02:17:53,280
Thus hath he sworn...

1528
02:17:53,479 --> 02:17:57,440
...and I with him, and many more with me,
upon the altar at Saint Edmundsbury

1529
02:17:57,680 --> 02:18:01,600
Even on that altar where we swore to you
dear amity and everlasting love

1530
02:18:01,719 --> 02:18:03,600
- May this be possible?
- May this be true?

1531
02:18:03,719 --> 02:18:09,000
Have I not hideous death within my view,
retaining but a quantity of life...

1532
02:18:09,360 --> 02:18:12,159
...which bleeds away,
even as a form of wax...

1533
02:18:12,399 --> 02:18:14,639
...resolveth from his figure 'gainst the fire?

1534
02:18:15,920 --> 02:18:18,200
What in the world should make me
now deceive...

1535
02:18:18,440 --> 02:18:20,799
...since I must lose the use of all deceit?

1536
02:18:20,959 --> 02:18:27,920
Why should I then be false, since it is true
that I must die here and live hence by truth?

1537
02:18:28,040 --> 02:18:29,360
How fares your majesty?

1538
02:18:29,520 --> 02:18:35,040
This fever, that hath troubled me so long,
lies heavy on me. O, my heart is sick

1539
02:18:36,200 --> 02:18:38,719
I say again, if Lewis do win the day...

1540
02:18:38,840 --> 02:18:41,799
...but even this night,
your breathing shall expire...

1541
02:18:42,000 --> 02:18:46,399
...paying the fine of rated treachery
even with a treacherous fine of all your lives

1542
02:18:46,520 --> 02:18:48,520
- We do believe thee
- And beshrew my soul...

1543
02:18:48,680 --> 02:18:51,680
...but I do love the favour and the form
of this most fair occasion

1544
02:18:52,159 --> 02:18:55,479
By the which
we will untread the steps of damned flight

1545
02:18:58,040 --> 02:19:01,120
Commend me to one Hubert with your king

1546
02:19:02,920 --> 02:19:09,760
The love of him, and this respect besides,
for that my grandsire was an Englishman...

1547
02:19:11,280 --> 02:19:13,680
...awakes my conscience to confess all this

1548
02:19:13,920 --> 02:19:16,200
Ay me, this tyrant fever burns me up

1549
02:19:16,600 --> 02:19:22,920
Set on toward Swinstead. To my litter straight.
Weakness possesseth me, and I am faint

1550
02:19:23,040 --> 02:19:25,239
My arm shall give thee help to bear thee hence

1551
02:19:25,639 --> 02:19:28,360
For I do see the cruel pangs of death
right in thine eye

1552
02:19:28,559 --> 02:19:32,760
Away, my friends! New flight,
and happy newness, that intends old right

1553
02:19:46,040 --> 02:19:50,399
- Who's there? Speak, ho! Speak quickly
- A friend

1554
02:19:50,600 --> 02:19:53,399
- What art thou?
- Of the part of England

1555
02:19:54,399 --> 02:19:57,479
- Hubert, I think?
- Thou hast a perfect thought

1556
02:19:58,079 --> 02:20:00,639
I will upon all hazards well believe
thou art my friend...

1557
02:20:00,760 --> 02:20:02,319
...that knowest my tongue so well

1558
02:20:02,479 --> 02:20:06,239
Thou mayst befriend me so much as to think
I come one way of the Plantagenets

1559
02:20:06,479 --> 02:20:09,280
Unkind remembrance! Thou and eyeless night
have done me shame.

1560
02:20:09,520 --> 02:20:11,120
Brave soldier, pardon me...

1561
02:20:11,239 --> 02:20:15,559
...that any accent breaking from thy tongue
should 'scape the true acquaintance of mine ear

1562
02:20:15,719 --> 02:20:18,479
Why, here walk I in the black brow of night,
to find you out

1563
02:20:18,959 --> 02:20:22,000
- Brief, then, and what's the news?
- The king, I fear, is poisoned

1564
02:20:22,799 --> 02:20:25,840
I left him almost speechless, and broke out...

1565
02:20:25,959 --> 02:20:28,840
...to acquaint you with this evil,
that you might the better arm you...

1566
02:20:28,920 --> 02:20:31,600
...to the sudden time,
than if you had at leisure known of this

1567
02:20:31,680 --> 02:20:34,319
- Who didst thou leave to tend his majesty?
- Know you not?

1568
02:20:34,440 --> 02:20:35,879
The lords are all come back

1569
02:20:36,360 --> 02:20:39,559
The king hath pardoned them,
and they are all about his majesty

1570
02:20:39,719 --> 02:20:43,920
Withhold thine indignation, mighty heaven,
and tempt us not to bear above our power!

1571
02:20:46,120 --> 02:20:52,639
I'll tell thee, Hubert, half my power this night,
passing these flats, are taken by the tide

1572
02:20:53,760 --> 02:20:56,200
These Lincoln Washes have devoured them.

1573
02:20:57,000 --> 02:20:59,120
Myself, well mounted, hardly have escaped

1574
02:21:00,399 --> 02:21:02,479
Away before. Conduct me to the king

1575
02:21:03,440 --> 02:21:07,479
His highness yet doth speak, and holds belief
that, being brought into the open air...

1576
02:21:07,639 --> 02:21:11,040
...it would allay the burning quality
of that fell poison which assaileth him

1577
02:21:11,200 --> 02:21:13,079
Let him be brought into the orchard here

1578
02:21:23,760 --> 02:21:25,239
Doth he still rage?

1579
02:21:26,040 --> 02:21:30,040
He is more patient than you left him.
Even now he sung

1580
02:21:32,040 --> 02:21:33,479
O, vanity of sickness!

1581
02:21:35,479 --> 02:21:38,639
Fierce extremes
in their continuance will not feel themselves

1582
02:21:40,000 --> 02:21:43,840
Death, having preyed upon the outward parts,
leaves them invisible...

1583
02:21:44,040 --> 02:21:45,879
...and his siege is now against the mind...

1584
02:21:46,360 --> 02:21:50,719
...the which he pricks and wounds
with many legions of strange fantasies...

1585
02:21:50,920 --> 02:21:55,159
...which, in their throng and press
to that last hold, confound themselves

1586
02:21:56,799 --> 02:21:58,920
'Tis strange that death should sing

1587
02:22:05,760 --> 02:22:07,040
How fares your majesty?

1588
02:22:09,040 --> 02:22:14,000
Poisoned, ill fare...

1589
02:22:15,600 --> 02:22:18,520
...dead, forsook...

1590
02:22:19,879 --> 02:22:21,120
...cast off

1591
02:22:22,120 --> 02:22:27,200
And none of you will bid the winter come
to thrust his icy fingers in my maw...

1592
02:22:28,360 --> 02:22:33,399
...nor let my kingdom's rivers take their course
through my burned bosom...

1593
02:22:34,600 --> 02:22:41,280
...nor entreat the north to make his bleak winds
kiss my parched lips and comfort me with cold

1594
02:22:41,840 --> 02:22:43,639
Within me is a hell

1595
02:22:44,719 --> 02:22:51,760
And there the poison is as a fiend confined
to tyrannize on unreprievable condemned blood

1596
02:22:55,120 --> 02:22:58,920
O, how I would my soul hath elbow-room

1597
02:23:00,520 --> 02:23:03,559
It would not out at windows nor at doors

1598
02:23:05,159 --> 02:23:12,920
There is so hot a summer in my bosom,
that all my bowels crumble up to dust

1599
02:23:14,719 --> 02:23:20,600
I am a scribbled form,
drawn with a pen upon a parchment

1600
02:23:20,959 --> 02:23:23,760
And against this fire do I shrink up

1601
02:23:24,280 --> 02:23:28,520
O, cousin, thou art come to set mine eye.

1602
02:23:29,639 --> 02:23:32,479
The tackle of my heart is cracked and burned

1603
02:23:32,719 --> 02:23:35,920
And all the shrouds
wherewith my life should sail...

1604
02:23:37,360 --> 02:23:39,079
...are turned to one thread...

1605
02:23:40,760 --> 02:23:42,680
...one little hair

1606
02:23:44,040 --> 02:23:51,159
My heart hath one poor string to stay it by,
which holds but till thy news be uttered

1607
02:23:51,360 --> 02:23:54,280
And then all this thou seest is but a clod...

1608
02:23:55,680 --> 02:24:00,200
...and module of confounded royalty

1609
02:24:00,399 --> 02:24:02,239
The Dauphin is preparing hitherward...

1610
02:24:02,440 --> 02:24:05,120
...where heaven He knows
how we shall answer him

1611
02:24:05,719 --> 02:24:09,760
For in a night the best part of my power,
as I upon advantage did remove...

1612
02:24:09,959 --> 02:24:13,799
...were in the Washes all unwarily
devoured by the unexpected flood

1613
02:24:19,799 --> 02:24:22,040
You breathe these dead news in as dead an ear

1614
02:24:23,799 --> 02:24:28,159
My liege! My lord!
But now a king, now thus

1615
02:24:31,760 --> 02:24:33,399
What surety of the world...

1616
02:24:35,920 --> 02:24:39,200
...what hope, what stay...

1617
02:24:41,360 --> 02:24:45,280
...when this was now a king,
and now is clay?

1618
02:24:47,319 --> 02:24:48,760
Art thou gone so?

1619
02:24:51,440 --> 02:24:55,280
I do but stay behind
to do the office for thee of revenge

1620
02:24:56,319 --> 02:25:02,600
And then my soul shall wait on thee to heaven,
as it on earth hath been thy servant still

1621
02:25:04,840 --> 02:25:08,879
Now, you stars that move in your right spheres,
where be your powers?

1622
02:25:10,159 --> 02:25:14,120
Show now your mended faiths,
and instantly return with me again...

1623
02:25:14,319 --> 02:25:19,559
...to push destruction and perpetual shame
out of the weak door of our fainting land

1624
02:25:20,559 --> 02:25:22,879
Straight let us seek,
or straight we shall be sought

1625
02:25:25,079 --> 02:25:26,959
The Dauphin rages at our very heels

1626
02:25:27,600 --> 02:25:31,840
O, let us pay the time but needful woe,
since it hath been beforehand with our griefs

1627
02:25:36,680 --> 02:25:42,000
This England never did, nor never shall,
lie at the proud foot of a conqueror...

1628
02:25:42,799 --> 02:25:45,520
...but when it first did help to wound itself

1629
02:25:47,559 --> 02:25:52,680
Now come three corners of the world in arms,
and we shall shock them

1630
02:25:55,159 --> 02:26:01,959
Nought shall make us rue,
if England to itself do rest but true

1631
02:26:04,879 --> 02:26:17,239
O, think how the sun wakes the seeds

1632
02:26:17,520 --> 02:26:28,959
O, was it for this the clay grew tall?
