I cannot mend it, I must needs confess,...

For I am loath to break our country's laws....

A gentleman of mine I have dispatch'd
With letters of your love to her at large.

It would beseem the Lord Northumberland
To say 'King Richard:' alack the heavy day...

Would you have been so brief with him, he would...

V,2,2447

Then, as I said, the duke, great Bolingbroke,
Mounted upon a hot and fiery steed...

As in a theatre, the eyes of men,
After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,...

But that is lost for being Richard's friend,...

Lest you be cropp'd before you come to prime....

V,2,2499

What seal is that, that hangs without thy bosom?
Yea, look'st thou pale? let me see the writing.

34

V,2,2502

No matter, then, who see it;
I will be satisfied; let me see the writing.

35

V,2,2507

Which for some reasons, sir, I mean to see.
I fear, I fear,—

36

V,2,2512

Bound to himself! what doth he with a bond
That he is bound to? Wife, thou art a fool....

V,2,2564

V,3,2627

Peruse this writing here, and thou shalt know
The treason that my haste forbids me show.
