Captain, conduct them into Tuttle fields. [175]

KING HENRY
I am content. - Richard Plantagenet,
Enjoy the kingdom after my decease.
CLIFFORD
What wrong is this unto the prince your son!
WARWICK
What good is this to England and himself!
WEST MORLAND
Base, fearful, and despairing Henry! [180]
CLIFFORD
How hast thou injured both thyself and us!
WEST MORLAND
I cannot stay to hear these articles.
NORT HUMBERLAND
Nor I.
CLIFFORD
Come, cousin, let us tell the queen these news.
WEST MORLAND
Farewell, faint-hearted and degenerate king [185]
In whose cold blood no spark of honour bides.
[Exit.]
NORT HUMBERLAND
Be thou a prey unto the house of York
And die in bands for this unmanly deed!
[Exit.]
