Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1] |
Richard III (Duke of Gloucester) |
125 |
Sound drums and trumpets, and the king will fly.
|

Henry VI, Part III
[II, 1] |
Earl of Warwick |
820 |
No longer Earl of March, but Duke of York:
The next degree is England's royal throne;
For King of England shalt thou be proclaim'd
In every borough as we pass along;
And he that throws not up his cap for joy
Shall for the fault make forfeit of his head.
King Edward, valiant Richard, Montague,
Stay we no longer, dreaming of renown,
But sound the trumpets, and about our task.

Henry VI, Part III
[II, 2] |
King Edward IV (Plantagenet) |
1015 |
And, in this resolution, I defy thee;
Not willing any longer conference,
Since thou deniest the gentle king to speak.
Sound trumpets! let our bloody colours wave!
And either victory, or else a grave.

Henry VI, Part III
[II, 6] |
King Edward IV (Plantagenet) |
1309 |
Bring forth that fatal screech-owl to our house,
That nothing sung but death to us and ours:
Now death shall stop his dismal threatening sound,
And his ill-boding tongue no more shall speak.

Henry VI, Part III
[IV, 7] |
Lord Hastings |

Sound trumpet; Edward shall be here proclaim'd:
Come, fellow-soldier, make thou proclamation.
|

Henry VI, Part III
[V, 1] |
King Edward IV (Plantagenet) |

Go, trumpet, to the walls, and sound a parle.

Henry VI, Part III
[V, 7] |
King Edward IV (Plantagenet) |
3096 |
Once more we sit in England's royal throne,
Re-purchased with the blood of enemies.
What valiant foemen, like to autumn's corn,
Have we mow'd down, in tops of all their pride!
Three Dukes of Somerset, threefold renown'd
For hardy and undoubted champions;
Two Cliffords, as the father and the son,
And two Northumberlands; two braver men
Ne'er spurr'd their coursers at the trumpet's sound;
With them, the two brave bears, Warwick and Montague,
That in their chains fetter'd the kingly lion
And made the forest tremble when they roar'd.
Thus have we swept suspicion from our seat
And made our footstool of security.
Come hither, Bess, and let me kiss my boy.
Young Ned, for thee, thine uncles and myself
Have in our armours watch'd the winter's night,
Went all afoot in summer's scalding heat,
That thou mightst repossess the crown in peace;
And of our labours thou shalt reap the gain.

Away with her, and waft her hence to France.
And now what rests but that we spend the time
With stately triumphs, mirthful comic shows,
Such as befits the pleasure of the court?
Sound drums and trumpets! farewell sour annoy!
For here, I hope, begins our lasting joy.
