Stanl.
^{4 note}

That, in the stye of this most bloody boar,
My son George Stanley is frank'd up in hold;
If I revolt, off goes young George's head;
The fear of that witholds my present aid.
But, tell me, where is princely Richmond now?

Chri.
At Pembroke, or at Ha'rford-west, in Wales.

Stanl.
What men of name resort to him?

Chri.
Sir Walter Herbert, a renowned soldier;
Sir Gilbert Talbot, and sir William Stanley;
Oxford, redoubted Pembroke, sir James Blunt,
And Rice ap Thomas, with a valiant crew;
And many other of great name and worth:
And towards London do they bend their course,
If by the way they be not fought withal.

Stanl.
Well, hie thee to thy lord; commend me to him;
Tell him, the queen hath heartily consented
He shall espouse Elizabeth her daughter.
These letters will resolve him of my mind.
Farewel. [Exeunt.
