Looke on my Wrongs with an indifferent eye:
You are my Father, for me thinkes in you

Pluckt from my armes perforce, and giuen away
To vpstart Vnthrifts? Wherefore was I borne?
If that my Cousin King, be King of England,
It must be graunted, I am Duke of Lancaster.

Had you first died, and he beene thus trod downe,
He should haue found his Vnckle Gaunt a Father,
