     KING。 And so you brought those horses which we saw�察�Trapped all in 

costly furniture�察�and meant To wear these spurs when you were knighted 

once�拭�

     MURLEY。 In and out upon occasion�察�I did。 

     KING。 In and out upon occasion�察�therefore�察�You shall be handed�察�and

Roger Acton�察�upon whom You did depend to be your governour�拭�

     ACTON。 Such letters we received forth of Kent。 

     BISHOP。       Where     is  my    Lord   the   King��Health      to   your   grace。 

Examining�察  �my   Lord�察  �some   of   these   caitive   rebels�察  �It   is   a   general   voice 

amongst them all�察�That they had never come unto this place�察�But to have 

met    their  valiant   general�察  �The   good   Lord    Cobham�察    �as  they   title  him�此�

Whereby�察�my Lord�察�your grace may now perceive�察�His treason is apparent�察�

which before He sought to colour by his flattery。 

     KING。 Now�察�by my royalty�察�I would have sworn But for his conscience�察�

which I bear withal�察�There had not lived a more true hearted subject。 

     BISHOP。 It is but counterfeit�察�my gracious lord�察�And therefore�察�may it 

please   your   majesty   To   set   your   hand   unto   this   precept   here�察  �By   which 

we'll cause him forthwith to appear�察�And answer this by order of the law。

Lord Cobham�察�in my hand�察�That which shall finish thy disdained life。 

     KING。 I think the iron age begins but now�察。�Which learned poets have 

so often taught�� Wherein there is no credit to be given�察�To either words�察�or 

looks�察�or solemn oaths。 For if there were�察�how often hath he sworn�察�How 

gently tuned the music of his tongue�察�And with what amiable face beheld 

he me�察�When all�察�God knows�察�was but hypocricy。

     COBHAM。 Long life and prosperous reign unto my lord。 

    KING。 Ah�察�villain�察�canst thou wish prosperity�察�Whose heart includeth 

naught but treachery�拭�I do arrest thee here my self�察�false knight�察�Of treason 

capital against the state。 

     COBHAM。 Of treason�察�mighty prince�拭�your grace mistakes。 I hope it 

is but in the way of mirth。 

    KING。 Thy neck shall feel it is in earnest shortly。 Darst thou intrude 

into our presence�察�knowing How heinously thou hast offended us�拭�But this 

is thy accustomed deceit�察�Now thou perceivest thy purpose is in vain�察�With 

some excuse or other thou wilt come�察�To clear thy self of this rebellion。 

       COBHAM。 Rebellion�察�good my Lord�拭              �I know of none。 

    KING。 If you deny it�察�here is evidence。 See you these men�拭�you never 

counseled�察�Nor offered them assistance in their wars�拭�

     COBHAM。 Speak�察�sirs。          Not one but all�察�I crave no favour。 Have ever 

I   been   conversant    with   you�察 �Or   written   letters  to  encourage    you�察  �Or 

kindled but the least or smallest part Of this your late unnatural rebellion�拭�

Speak�察�for I dare the uttermost you can。 

    MURLEY。 In and out upon occasion�察�I know you not。 

    KING。 No�拭�didst not say that sir John Old´castle Was one with whom 

you purposed to have met�拭�

    MURLEY。 True�察�I did say so�察�but in what respect�拭�Because I heard it 

was reported so。 

    KING。 Was there no other argument but that�拭�

    ACTON。 To clear my conscience ere I die�察�my lord�察�I must confess�察�we 

have no other ground But only Rumor�察�to accuse this lord�察�Which now I 

see was merely fabulous。 

    KING。 The more pernitious you to taint him then�察�Whom you knew not 

was faulty�察�yea or no。 

     COBHAM。 Let this�察�my Lord�察�which I present your grace�察�Speak for 

my   loyalty�此   �read   these   articles�察  �And   then   give   sentence   of   my   life   or 

death。 

    KING。 Earl Cambridge�察�Scroop�察�and Gray corrupted With bribes from 

Charles of France�察�either to win My Crown from me�察�or secretly contrive 

My death by treason�拭       �Is this possible�拭�

     COBHAM。   There   is   the   platform�察  �and   their   hands�察  �my   lord�察  �Each 

severally subscribed to the same。 

     KING。 Oh never heard  of�察�base ingratitude� �Even those I hug   within 

my   bosom   most   Are   readiest   evermore   to   sting   my   heart。   Pardon   me�察�

Cobham�察�I have done thee wrong�察�Hereafter I will live to make amends。 Is�察�

then�察�their time of meeting no near hand�拭�We'll meet with them�察�but little 

for their ease�察�If God permit。         Go�察�take these rebels hence�察�Let them have 

martial law�此     �but as for thee�察�Friend to thy king and country�察�still be free。 

     ��Exeunt。�А�

     MURLEY。   Be   it   more   or   less�察  �what   a   world   is   this�拭  �Would   I   had 

continued still of the order of knaves�察�And never sought knighthood�察�since 

it costs so dear。 Sir Roger�察�I may thank you for all。 

     ACTON。 Now  tis   too late   to   have it   remedied�察 �I prithee�察 �Murley�察 �do 

not urge me with it。 

     HUNTINGTON。 Will you away�察�and make no more to do�拭�

     MURLEY。 Fie�察�paltry�察�paltry� �to and fro�察�as occasion serves�察�If you be 

so hasty�察�take my place。 

     HUNTINGTON。 No�察�good sir knight�察�you shall begin in your hand。
