We here enlarge and give thee liberty;
And, for recompense beside this good, Thou shalt receive five hundred marks in gold.-- I know not how, we should have met our son, Whom now in heart I wish I might behold. [Enter Artois.] ARTOIS. Good news, my Lord; the prince is hard at hand, And with him comes Lord Awdley and the rest, Whom since our landing we could never meet. [Enter Prince Edward, Lord Awdley, and Soldiers.] KING EDWARD. Welcome, fair Prince! How hast thou sped, my son, Since thy arrival on the coast of France? PRINCE EDWARD. Successfully, I thank the gracious heavens: Some of their strongest Cities we have won, As Harflew, Lo, Crotay, and Carentigne, And others wasted, leaving at our heels A wide apparent field and beaten path For solitariness to progress in: Yet those that would submit we kindly pardoned, But who in scorn refused our proffered peace, Endured the penalty of sharp revenge. |
