have toss'd me on their pikes Before I would have granted to that act. But thou preferr'st thy life before
thine honour: And seeing thou dost, I here divorce myself Both from thy table, Henry, and thy bed, Until
that act of parliament be repeal'd Whereby my son is disinherited. The northern lords that have forsworn
thy colours Will follow mine, if once they see them spread; And spread they shall be, to thy foul disgrace And
utter ruin of the house of York. Thus do I leave thee. Come, son, let's away; Our army is ready; come,
we'll after them. KING HENRY VI
Stay, gentle Margaret, and hear me speak. QUEEN MARGARET
Thou hast spoke too much already: get thee gone. KING HENRY VI
Gentle son Edward, thou wilt stay with me? QUEEN MARGARET
Ay, to be murder'd by his enemies. PRINCE EDWARD
When I return with victory from the field I'll see your grace: till then I'll follow her. QUEEN MARGARET
Come, son, away; we may not linger thus.
[Exeunt QUEEN MARGARET and PRINCE EDWARD] KING HENRY VI
Poor queen! how love to me and to her son Hath made her break out into terms of rage! Revenged may
she be on that hateful duke, Whose haughty spirit, winged with desire, Will cost my crown, and like an
empty eagle Tire on the flesh of me and of my son! The loss of those three lords torments my heart I'll
write unto them and entreat them fair. Come, cousin you shall be the messenger. EXETER
And I, I hope, shall reconcile them all. [Exeunt]
