1King.
2Mowbray, impartiall are our eyes and eares,
3Were he my brother, nay our kingdomes heyre,
4As he is but my fathers brothers sonne;
5Now by my Scepters awe, I make a vow,
6Such neighbour‑neerenesse to our sacred blood,
7Should nothing priuiledge him, nor partialize
8The vn‑stooping firmenesse of my vpright soule.
