And Thomas More, he followed after him:
Another Thomas yet there doth remain, That is far worse than either of those twain, And if with speed, my Lords, we not pursue it, I fear the King and all the land will rue it. BEDFORD. Another Thomas! pray God it be not Cromwell. GARDINER. My Lord of Bedford, it is that traitor Cromwell. BEDFORD. Is Cromwell false? my heart will never think it. SUFFOLK. My Lord of Winchester, what likelihood, Or proof have you of this his treachery? GARDINER. My Lord, too much.--Call in the men within. [Enter witnesses.] These men, my Lord, upon their oaths affirm, That they did hear Lord Cromwell in his garden, Wished a dagger sticking at the heart Of our King Henry. What is this but treason? BEDFORD. |
