Then by the lawful power that I have Thou shalt stand curs'd and
excommunicate�察 �And blessed shall he be that doth revolt From his
allegiance to an heretic�察 �And meritorious shall that hand be call'd�察�
Canonized�察 �and worshipp'd as a saint�察 �That takes away by any secret
course Thy hateful life。 CONSTANCE。 O�察 �lawful let it be That I have
room with Rome to curse awhile� �Good father Cardinal�察�cry thou 'amen'
To my keen curses�察�for without my wrong There is no tongue hath power
to curse him right。 PANDULPH。 There's law and warrant�察 �lady�察 �for my
curse。 CONSTANCE。 And for mine too�察�when law can do no right�察�Let it
be lawful that law bar no wrong�察�Law cannot give my child his kingdom
here�察�For he that holds his kingdom holds the law�察�Therefore�察 �since law
itself is perfect wrong�察 �How can the law forbid my tongue to curse�拭�
PANDULPH。 Philip of France�察�on peril of a curse�察�Let go the hand of that
arch´heretic�察�And raise the power of France upon his head�察�Unless he do
submit himself to Rome。 ELINOR。 Look'st thou pale�察�France�拭�Do not let
go thy hand。 CONSTANCE。 Look to that�察 �devil�察 �lest that France repent
And by disjoining hands hell lose a soul。 AUSTRIA。 King Philip�察�listen to
the Cardinal。 BASTARD。 And hang a calf's´skin on his recreant limbs。
AUSTRIA。 Well�察 �ruffian�察 �I must pocket up these wrongs�察 �Because´
BASTARD。 Your breeches best may carry them。 KING JOHN。 Philip�察�
what say'st thou to the Cardinal�拭�CONSTANCE。 What should he say�察�but

as the Cardinal�拭 �LEWIS。 Bethink you�察 �father�察 �for the difference Is
purchase of a heavy curse from Rome Or the light loss of England for a
friend。 Forgo the easier。 BLANCH。 That's the curse of Rome。
CONSTANCE。 O Lewis�察�stand fast� �The devil tempts thee here In likeness
of a new untrimmed bride。 BLANCH。 The Lady Constance speaks not
from her faith�察 �But from her need。 CONSTANCE。 O�察 �if thou grant my
need�察�Which only lives but by the death of faith�察�That need must needs
infer this principle´ That faith would live again by death of need。 O then�察�
tread down my need�察�and faith mounts up�此�Keep my need up�察�and faith is
trodden down� �KING JOHN。 The King is mov'd�察�and answers not to this。
CONSTANCE。 O be remov'd from him�察�and answer well� �AUSTRIA。 Do
so�察�King Philip�察�hang no more in doubt。 BASTARD。 Hang nothing but a
calf's´skin�察�most sweet lout。 KING PHILIP。 I am perplex'd and know not
what to say。 PANDULPH。 What canst thou say but will perplex thee more�察�
If thou stand excommunicate and curs'd�拭 �KING PHILIP。 Good reverend
father�察 �make my person yours�察 �And tell me how you would bestow
yourself。 This royal hand and mine are newly knit�察�And the conjunction of
our inward souls Married in league�察�coupled and link'd together With all
religious strength of sacred vows�察�The latest breath that gave the sound of
words Was deep´sworn faith�察 �peace�察 �amity�察 �true love�察 �Between our
kingdoms and our royal selves�察�And even before this truce�察�but new before�察�
No longer than we well could wash our hands�察�To clap this royal bargain
up of peace�察 �Heaven knows�察 �they were besmear'd and overstain'd With
slaughter's pencil�察 �where revenge did paint The fearful difference of
incensed kings。 And shall these hands�察�so lately purg'd of blood�察�So newly
join'd in love�察�so strong in both�察�Unyoke this seizure and this kind regreet�拭�
Play fast and loose with faith�拭�so jest with heaven�察�Make such unconstant
children of ourselves�察 �As now again to snatch our palm from palm�察�
Unswear faith sworn�察�and on the marriage´bed Of smiling peace to march
a bloody host�察�And make a riot on the gentle brow Of true sincerity�拭�O�察�
holy sir�察�My reverend father�察�let it not be so� �Out of your grace�察�devise�察�
ordain�察�impose�察�Some gentle order�察�and then we shall be blest To do your
pleasure�察�and continue friends。 PANDULPH。 All form is formless�察�order
orderless�察�Save what is opposite to England's love。 Therefore�察�to arms� �be

champion of our church�察�Or let the church�察�our mother�察�breathe her curse´
A mother's curse´on her revolting son。 France�察�thou mayst hold a serpent
by the tongue�察�A chafed lion by the mortal paw�察�A fasting tiger safer by the
tooth�察�Than keep in peace that hand which thou dost hold。 KING PHILIP。 I
may disjoin my hand�察�but not my faith。 PANDULPH。 So mak'st thou faith
an enemy to faith�察�And like。 a civil war set'st oath to oath。 Thy tongue
against thy tongue。 O�察�let thy vow First made to heaven�察�first be to heaven
perform'd�察 �That is�察 �to be the champion of our Church。 What since thou
swor'st is sworn against thyself And may not be performed by thyself�察�For
that which thou hast sworn to do amiss Is not amiss when it is truly done�察�
And being not done�察�where doing tends to ill�察�The truth is then most done
not doing it�察 �The better act of purposes mistook Is to mistake again�察�
though indirect�察�Yet indirection thereby grows direct�察�And falsehood cures�察�
as fire cools fire Within the scorched veins of one new´burn'd。 It is
religion that doth make vows kept�察 �But thou hast sworn against religion
By what thou swear'st against the thing thou swear'st�察�And mak'st an oath
the surety for thy truth Against an oath�察�the truth thou art unsure To swear
swears only not to be forsworn�察�Else what a mockery should it be to swear� �
But thou dost swear only to be forsworn�察�And most forsworn to keep what
thou dost swear。 Therefore thy later vows against thy first Is in thyself
rebellion to thyself�察�And better conquest never canst thou make Than arm
thy constant and thy nobler parts Against these giddy loose suggestions�察�
Upon which better part our pray'rs come in�察�If thou vouchsafe them。 But if
not�察�then know The peril of our curses fight on thee So heavy as thou shalt
not shake them off�察�But in despair die under the black weight。 AUSTRIA。
Rebellion�察�flat rebellion� �BASTARD。 Will't not be�拭�Will not a calf's´skin
stop that mouth of thine�拭�LEWIS。 Father�察�to arms� �BLANCH。 Upon thy
wedding´day�拭�Against the blood that thou hast married�拭�What�察�shall our
feast be kept with slaughtered men�拭 �Shall braying trumpets and loud
churlish drums�察�Clamours of hell�察�be measures to our pomp�拭�O husband�察�
hear me� �ay�察�alack�察�how new Is 'husband' in my mouth� �even for that name�察�
Which till this time my tongue did ne'er pronounce�察�Upon my knee I beg�察�
go not to arms Against mine uncle。 CONSTANCE。 O�察 �upon my knee�察�
Made hard with kneeling�察�I do pray to thee�察�Thou virtuous Dauphin�察�alter

not the doom Forethought by heaven� �BLANCH。 Now shall I see thy love。
What motive may Be stronger with thee than the name of wife�拭�
CONSTANCE。 That which upholdeth him that thee upholds�察�His honour。
O�察�thine honour�察�Lewis�察�thine honour� �LEWIS。 I muse your Majesty doth
seem so cold�察�When such profound respects do pull you on。 PANDULPH。
I will denounce a curse upon his head。 KING PHILIP。 Thou shalt not need。
England�察 �I will fall from thee。 CONSTANCE。 O fair return of banish'd
majesty� �ELINOR。 O foul revolt of French inconstancy� �KING JOHN。
France�察�thou shalt rue this hour within this hour。 BASTARD。 Old Time the
clock´setter�察�that bald sexton Time�察�Is it as he will�拭�Well then�察�France shall
rue。 BLANCH。 The sun's o'ercast with blood。 Fair day�察�adieu� �Which is the
side that I must go withal�拭�I am with both�此�each army hath a hand�察�And in
their rage�察�I having hold of both�察�They whirl asunder and dismember me。
Husband�察�I cannot pray that thou mayst win�察�Uncle�察�I needs must pray that
thou mayst lose�察�Father�察�I may not wish the fortune thine�察�Grandam�察�I will
not wish thy wishes thrive。 Whoever wins�察 �on that side shall I lose�此�
Assured loss before the match be play'd。 LEWIS。 Lady�察�with me�察�with me
thy fortune lies。 BLANCH。 There where my fortune lives�察 �there my life
dies。 KING JOHN。 Cousin�察 �go draw our puissance together。 Exit
BASTARD France�察 �I am burn'd up with inflaming wrath�察�A rage whose
heat hath this condition That nothing can allay�察 �nothing but blood�察 �The
blood�察�and dearest´valu'd blood�察�of France。 KING PHILIP。 Thy rage shall
burn thee up�察�and thou shalt turn To ashes�察�ere our blood shall quench that
fire。 Look to thyself�察�thou art in jeopardy。 KING JOHN。 No more than he
that threats。 To arms let's hie� �Exeunt severally
