II CITIZEN

Truly, the hearts of men are full of fear:
You cannot reason almost with a man
That looks not heavily and full of dread. [40]

III CITIZEN

Before the days of change still is it so:
By a divine instinct men’s minds mistrust
Ensuing danger, as by proof we see
The water swell before a boist’rous storm.
But leave it all to God. Whither away? [45]

II CITIZEN

Marry, we were sent for to the Justices.

III CITIZEN

And so was I: I’ll bear you company.

Exeunt.

Scene IV IT

Enter Archbishop of York, the young Duke of York, Queen Elizabeth, and
the Duchess of York.

ARCHBISHOP

Last night, I hear, they lay at Stony Stratford,
And at Northampton they do rest tonight:
Tomorrow, or next day, they will be here.

DUCHESS

I long with all my heart to see the Prince;
I hope he is much grown since last I saw him. [5]

ELIZABET H

But I hear no: they say my son of York
Has almost overta’en him in his growth.
