Sought to entrap me by intelligence;
Rated mine uncle from the council board;
In rage dismissed my father from the court; [100]
Broke oath on oath, committed wrong on wrong;

And in conclusion drove us to seek out
This head of safety, and withal to pry
Into his title, the which we find
Too indirect for long continuance. [105]

BLUNT

Shall I return this answer to the king?

HOTSPUR

Not so, Sir Walter. We’ll withdraw awhile.
Go to the king; and let there be impawned
Some surety for a safe return again,
And in the morning early shall mine uncle [110]

Bring him our purposes; and so farewell.

BLUNT
I would you would accept of grace and love.

HOTSPUR
And may be so we shall.

BLUNT
Pray God you do.
Exeunt.
