No farther, honest Grillon. _Gril._ Shall I fight him? _King._ I charge thee, not. _Gril._ If he provokes me, strike him; You'll grant me that? _King._ Not so, my honest soldier; Yet speak to him. _Gril._ I will, by heaven, to the purpose; And, if he force a beating, who can help it? [_Exit._ _King._ Follow, Alphonso; when the storm is up, Call me to part them. _Qu. M._ Grillon, to ask him pardon, Will let Guise know we are not in the dark. _King._ You hit the judgment; yet, O yet, there's more; Something upon my heart, after these counsels, So soft, and so unworthy to be named!-- _Qu. M._ They say, that Grillon's niece is come to court, And means to kiss your hand. [_Exit._ _King._ Could I but hope it! |
