we met。 He�察�like a lusty thief�察�Brake with his teeth this Angel just in two
To be a token at our meeting next�察�Provided I should charge no Officer To
apprehend him�察�but at weapon's point Recover that and what he had beside。
Well met�察 �sir John�察 �betake ye to your tools By torch light�察 �for�察 �master

BUTLER。 Hold�察�villains�察�hold� �my Lords�察�what do you mean�察�To see a
traitor draw against the King�拭�
SIR JOHN。 The King� �God's will�察�I am in a proper pickle。
KING。 Butler�察�what news�拭�why dost thou trouble us�拭�
BUTLER。 Please it your Highness�察�it is break of day�察�And as I scouted
near to Islington�察�The gray eyed morning gave me glimmering Of armed
men coming down Highgate hill�察 �Who by their course are coasting
hitherward。
KING。 Let us withdraw�察�my Lords。 Prepare our troops To charge the
rebels�察�if there be such cause。
For this lewd priest�察�this devilish hypocrite�察�That is a thief�察�a gamester�察�
and what not�察�Let him be hanged up for example sake。
SIR JOHN。 Not so my gracious sovereign。 I confess that I am a frail
man�察 �flesh and blood as other are�此�but�察 �set my imperfections aside�察 �by
this light�察�ye have not a taller man�察�nor a truer subject to the Crown and
State�察�than Sir John of Wrotham。
KING。 Will a true subject rob his King�拭�
SIR JOHN。 Alas�察�twas ignorance and want�察�my gracious liege。
KING。 Twas want of grace。 Why�察 �you should be as salt To season

As shepherds�察�not as wolves to spoil the flock。 Go hang him�察�Butler。
BUTLER。 Didst thou not rob me�拭�
SIR JOHN。 I must confess I saw some of your gold。 But�察�my dread
Lord�察�I am in no humor for death�察�therefore�察�save my life。 God will that
sinners live�察�do not you cause me die。 Once in their lives the best may go
astray�察�and if the world say true�察�your self ��my liege�� have been a thief。
KING。 I confess I have�察�But I repent and have reclaimed my self。
SIR JOHN。 So will I do�察�if you will give me time。
KING。 Wilt thou�拭 �My lords�察�will you be his sureties�拭�
HUNTINGTON。 That when he robs again�察�he shall be hanged。
SIR JOHN。 I ask no more。
KING。 And we will grant thee that。 Live and repent�察 �and prove an
honest man�察�Which when I hear�察�and safe return from France�察�I'll give thee
living�此 �till then take thy gold�察�But spend it better than at cards or wine�察�
For better virtues fit that coat of thine。
SIR JOHN。 Vivat Rex & curat lex� �My liege�察 �if ye have cause of
battle�察�ye shall see Sir John of Wrotham bestir himself in your quarrel。

Attends ill actions wrongfully attempted。 Sir Roger Acton�察 �thou retainst
the name Of knight�察�and shouldst be more discreetly tempered�察�Than join

ACTON。 Pardon�察�my Lord�察�my conscience urged me to it。
KING。 Thy conscience�拭 �then thy conscience is corrupt�察 �For in thy
conscience thou art bound to us�察�And in thy conscience thou shouldst love
thy country�察�Else what's the difference twixt a Christian And the uncivil
manners of the Turk�拭�
BEVERLEY。 We meant no hurt unto your majesty�察�But reformation of
Religion。
KING。 Reform Religion�拭�was it that ye sought�拭�I pray who gave you
that authority�拭�Belike�察�then�察�we do hold the scepter up And sit within the
throne but for a cipher。 Time was�察�good subjects would make known their
