That thou mightst repossess the crown in peace;
And of our labours thou shalt reap the gain. Gloster. [Aside.] I'll blast his harvest if your head were laid; For yet I am not look'd on in the world. This shoulder was ordain'd so thick to heave; And heave it shall some weight or break my back.-- Work thou the way,--and that shall execute. KING EDWARD. Clarence and Gloster, love my lovely queen; And kiss your princely nephew, brothers both. CLARENCE. The duty that I owe unto your Majesty I seal upon the lips of this sweet babe. QUEEN ELIZABETH. Thanks, noble Clarence; worthy brother, thanks. Gloster. And, that I love the tree from whence thou sprang'st, Witness the loving kiss I give the fruit.-- [Aside.] To say the truth, so Judas kiss'd his Master, And cried, all hail! when as he meant all harm. KING EDWARD. Now am I seated as my soul delights; Having my country's peace and brothers' loves. |
