the burning crest Of the old, feeble and day-wearied sun, Even this ill night, your breathing shall expire, Paying
the fine of rated treachery Even with a treacherous fine of all your lives, If Lewis by your assistance win
the day. Commend me to one Hubert with your king: The love of him, and this respect besides, For that
my grandsire was an Englishman, Awakes my conscience to confess all this. In lieu whereof, I pray you,
bear me hence From forth the noise and rumour of the field, Where I may think the remnant of my thoughts In
peace, and part this body and my soul With contemplation and devout desires. SALISBURY
We do believe thee: and beshrew my soul But I do love the favour and the form Of this most fair occasion,
by the which We will untread the steps of damned flight, And like a bated and retired flood, Leaving our
rankness and irregular course, Stoop low within those bounds we have o'erlook'd And cabby run on in
obedience Even to our ocean, to our great King John. My arm shall give thee help to bear thee hence; For
I do see the cruel pangs of death Right in thine eye. Away, my friends! New flight; And happy newness,
that intends old right.
