JUSTICE SHALLOW'S SEAT IN GLOUCESTERSHIRE.
SHALLOW, SILENCE, FALSTAFF, BARDOLPH, BOY, MOULDY,
SHADOW, WART, FEEBLE, AND BULL-CALF.
Falstaff. GIVE me the spare men, and
spare me the great ones. Put me a caliver into Wart's
hand, Bardolph.
Bard. Hold, Wart, traverse; thus, thus,
thus.
Fal. Come, manage me your caliver. So:—very
well:—go to:—very good:— exceeding good.—O,
give me always a little, lean, old, chapped, bald shot.—Well
said, Wart; thou'rt a good scab : hold, there's a tester
for thee.

ACT IV.
SCENE IV.
THE PALACE AT WESTMINSTER.
KING HENRY, AND THE PRINCE OF WALES.
 P.
Henry. HERE is your crown:
And He that wears the crown immortally,
Long guard it yours! If I affect it more, Than as
your honour, and as your renown, Let me no more
from this obedience rise,— (Which my most true
and inward duteous spirit Teacheth)—this prostrate
and exterior bending! Heaven witness with me, when
I here came in And found no course of breath within
your majesty, How cold it struck my heart! If I
do feign, O, let me in my present wildness die;
And never live to show th' incredulous world The
noble change that I have purposed! |
Painted by Josiah Boydell. Engraved by Robert Thew.
