Father of Warwick, know you what this meanes?

I will not ruinate my Fathers House,

Who gaue his blood to lyme the stones together,

And set vp Lancaster. Why, trowest thou, Warwicke,

That Clarence is so harsh, so blunt, vnnaturall,

To bend the fatall Instruments of Warre

Against his Brother, and his lawfull King.

To keepe that Oath, were more impietie,

I am so sorry for my Trespas made,

That to deserue well at my Brothers hands,

I here proclayme my selfe thy mortall foe:

With resolution, wheresoe're I meet thee,
