Arch.

Like enough you doe.

To morrow, good Sir Michell, is a day,

Wherein the fortune of ten thousand men

Must bide the touch. For Sir, at Shrewsbury,

As I am truly giuen to vnderstand,

The King, with mightie and quick‑raysed Power,

Meetes with Lord Harry: and I feare, Sir Michell,

What with the sicknesse of Northumberland,

Whose Power was in the first proportion;

And what with Owen Glendowers absence thence,

Who with them was rated firmely too,

And comes not in, ouer‑rul'd by Prophecies,

I feare the Power of Percy is too weake,

To wage an instant tryall with the King.
