"His majesty, tendering my person's safety, has appointed... ..This conduct to convey me to the Tower." "What is the matter, Clarence?" "May I know?" "Yes, Richard, when I know,... ..but I must protest, as yet I do not." "Why, this it is when men are ruled by women." "It's not the king who sends you to the Tower." "Elizabeth is queen."

"With that, I thought a legion of foul fiends... ..environed me,... ..and howled in my ears such hideous cries... ..that with the very noise..." "I trembling waked... ..that with the very noise..." "I trembling waked... ..and, for a season after, could not believe but that I was in hell!" "..and, for a season after, could not believe but that I was in hell!" "Such terrible impression made my dream." "Oi!" "Oi, off!" "Now then, my hardy, stout-resolved mates..." "Ahh!" "Are you now going to dispatch this thing?" "We are, my lord, but need the warrant to be admitted to where he is." "We are, my lord, but need the warrant to be admitted to where he is." "Well thought upon!" "I have it here about me." "Be sudden in the execution,... ..For Clarence is well spoken and perhaps... ..May move your hearts to pity." "We go to use our hands and not our tongues." "I like you, lads." "About your business straight." "Your eyes drop millstones when fools' eyes fall tears." "Clarence has not another day to live."

" Saw you the king today?" "But now the Duke of Buckingham and I Are come from visiting his majesty." " Did you confer with him?" " Ma'am, we did." "He desires to make reconciliation between Richard and your brother." "Would all were well, but that will never be." "I fear our happiness is at the height." "Who is it that complains unto the king... ..That I, in truth, am stern..." "and love them not?" "..That I, in truth, am stern..." "and love them not?" "Because I cannot flatter and look fair,... ..Smile in men's faces,... ..smooth, deceive and cog,... ..I must be held a rancorous enemy." "Cannot a plain man live and think no harm?" "To whom in all this presence speaks your grace?" "To you, who have neither honesty nor grace!" "When have I injured you?" "When done you wrong?" "Come, come, we know your meaning!" "The world is grown so bad... ..That wrens make prey where eagles dare not perch!" "You envy my advancement and my family." "God grant we never may have need of you." "Meantime, God grants... ..that I have need of you." "My brother is imprisoned by your means." "Richard, you do me shameful injury!" "Benedictus, benedicat, per Jesum Christum, Dominum nostrum." "Amen." "Benedictus, benedicat, per Jesum Christum, Dominum nostrum." "Amen." "What would you, fellow, at the Tower... ..And how came you hither?" "I would speak with Clarence, and I came hither on my legs." "I never did incense his majesty... ..Against your brother, but have been An earnest advocate to plead for him." " You may deny that you..." " She may, my Lord!" " You may deny that you..." " She may, my Lord!" "She may, Lord Rivers, but who knows not so?" "She may do more, sir, than denying that." "She may help you to many great promotions." "My Lord of Gloucester,... ..I have too long borne your blunt upbraidings and bitter scoffs!" "I had rather be a country serving maid Than a great queen in this condition,... ..To be so baited, scorned and stormed at!" "By heaven, I will acquaint his majesty!" "Tell him... and spare not." "What I have said, I will avouch it in the presence of the king." "What I have said, I will avouch it in the presence of the king." "Before you were queen,... ..yes, or your husband king, I was a packhorse... ..in his great affairs." "In all that time, you and your brother here... ..were sympathetic to the enemy." "Let me put in your mind, if you forget what you have been before..." "Let me put in your mind, if you forget what you have been before... ..and what you are;" "indeed what I have been,... ..and what I am." " A bottled spider!" "My dear brother-in-law,... ..in those busy days When now you try to prove us enemies,... ..We followed then Edward, our lawful king." "So should she you, if you should be her king." "If I should be?" "I'd rather be a pedlar!" "I'm too childish-foolish for this world." "You poisonous, bunch-backed toad!" "Have done, have done." "Small joy have I in being this country's queen." "Buckingham, take heed of yonder dog." "Look, when he fawns, he bites." "Buckingham, take heed of yonder dog." "Look, when he fawns, he bites." "Your majesty, his majesty has called for you." "What did she say, my Lord of Buckingham?" "Nothing that I respect, my gracious lord." "I cannot blame her,... ..by God's holy mother." "A virtuous and a Christian-like conclusion,... ..To pray for those... ..who have done wrong to you." "What, are you afraid?" "Not to kill him, having a warrant for it,... ..But to be damned for killing him,... ..from which no warrant can defend me." "I thought you had been resolute." "So I am." "Let him live." "I'll back to Richard Gloucester and tell him so." "No." "Wait a little." "Some certain dregs of conscience are yet within me." "Remember our reward when the deed's done." "He dies. I forgot the reward." " And where's your conscience now?" " ln the Duke of Gloucester's purse." " And where's your conscience now?" " ln the Duke of Gloucester's purse." "In God's name,... ..what are you?" "A man, as you are." "But not, as I am, royal." "Nor you, as we are, loyal." "Who has sent you to me?" " And why have you come?" " To..." "To... ..murder me." "Aye." "But how, my friends, have I offended you?" "Offended us you have not, but King Edward." "I will send you to my brother Richard, Who shall reward you better for my life... ..Than will the king for tidings of my death." "You are deceived." "Your brother Richard hates you." "You are wrong." "He loves me and he holds me dear." "Go you to him, tell him and he will weep." "Aye!" "Millstones, as he lessoned us to weep." "Oh, do not slander him, for he is kind." " Right... as snow in harvest!" " Richard!" "No!" " Right... as snow in harvest!" " Richard!" "No!" "So, now we have done a good day's work." "Now, friends, continue this united league." "Rivers and Hastings, take each other's hands." "Hastings, my soul is purged from grudging hate." "Your majesty, I truly swear the like." "Elizabeth, you are not exempt in this." "Wife, greet Lord Hastings." "Let him kiss your hand." "Dear Hastings." "Now, princely Buckingham..." "make me happy in this unity." "Now, princely Buckingham..." "make me happy in this unity." "Whenever Buckingham does turn his hate upon your majesty,... ..God punish me with hate from those where l expect most love." "When I most need to employ a friend, And most assured that he is a friend,..." " Richard!" " ..treacherous and full of guile is he." "Good morrow to my sovereign king." " Now, Richard..." " And queen." "I have done a good day's work." "Made peace of enmity, fair love of hate." "It's death to me to be at enmity;... ..I hate it and desire all good men's love." "First, ma'am, I do entreat true peace of you,... ..Which I shall purchase with my duteous service." "Of you, my noble, dear Lord Buckingham,... ..lf ever any grudge were lodged between us." "Of you,... ..Lord Hastings." "Of you, dear Rivers,... ..Who, all without desert, has frowned on me!" "Indeed, of all, I do not know that Englishman alive... Indeed, of all, I do not know that Englishman alive... ..With whom my soul is any jot at odds... ..More than the infant..." "..that is born tonight." "I thank my God for my humility." "I wish to God all strifes were settled so." "My sovereign lord,... ..I do beseech your majesty to take your brother Clarence to your grace." "Why, ma'am, have I offered love for this?" "Who knows not that the gentle duke is dead?" "Who knows not he is dead?" "Who knows he is?" "Is Clarence dead?" "The order was reversed!" "But he, poor man, by your first order died,... ..And that a winged Mercury did bear." "Some tardy cripple bore the countermand." "Oh, God,... ..I fear... thy justice will take hold of me!" "And mine, and mine... ..and yours for this!" "Rivers, help me to my bed!" "Oh, poor Clarence!" "This is the fruits of rashness." "Marked you not, Hastings,... ..How that the guilty brother of the queen looked pale... ..when he did hear of Clarence's death?" "God will revenge it." "Oh, Clarence,... ..Clarence, my unhappy son." "This news is bad indeed." " What, is he in his bed?" " He is." "Oh, he has over-used his royal person much." "What means this scene of rude impatience?" "Edward, my lord,... ..your son our king is dead!" "Why grow the branches now the root is withered?" "Why wither not the leaves, the sap being gone?" "Alas, I am the mother of these griefs." "On me pour all your tears." "I am your sorrow's nurse." "Elizabeth, have comfort." "We all of us have cause... ..To wail the dimming of our shining star." "Though we have spent our harvest of this king,... ..We are to reap the harvest of his son." "Sister, think you like a careful mother of the Prince of Wales, your son." "Sister, think you like a careful mother of the Prince of Wales, your son." "Send straight for him." "Let him be crowned." "In him your comfort lies." "Me seemeth good that with some little train... ..the prince be brought to London to be crowned." "Why with some little train, my Lord of Buckingham?" "Lest by a multitude, dear sir, the new-healed wound of civil war break out!" "I hope the king made peace with all of us,... ..And the compact is firm and true in me." "And so in me, and so, I think, in all." "Therefore I say, with noble Buckingham,... ..lt's fitting that so few should meet the prince." " Prime Minister?" " And so say I." "Then be it so." "Two mirrors of my husband's likeness are cracked in pieces... ..by malignant death." "And I for comfort have but one false glass,... ..That grieves me when I see my shame in him." "Madam?" "Mother, I do humbly crave your blessing." "God comfort you... ..and put meekness in your breast,... ..Love, charity, obedience and true duty." "Amen." "And make me die a good old man." "That's the butt-end of a mother's blessing." "I marvel that her grace did leave it out." "My Lord Protector." "My Lord Protector, whoever journeys to the prince,... ..For God's sake, let not us two stay at home,..." "..And let us part Earl Rivers from the prince." "My other self!" "Agghh, agghh!" "I long with all my heart to see the Prince of Wales." "I hope he is much grown since last I saw him." "They say my uncle Richard grew so fast... ..That he could gnaw a crust at two hours old!" "Oh, go to, you parlous boy!" " You are too shrewd." " Elizabeth, be not angry with your son." " You are too shrewd." " Elizabeth, be not angry with your son." "Pitchers have ears." "Lord Stanley." "Richmond." "What news?" "Such news that grieves me to report." "What is your news?" "Your brother Rivers is murdered." "By whom?" "Richmond?" "Richard... ..and Buckingham." "I see the ruin of my family." "Welcome, dear nephew." "Welcome to your capital." "I want more uncles here to welcome me." "Those uncles who you want are dangerous." "Your highness attended to their sugared words... ..And looked not on the poison of their hearts." "God keep you from them and from such false friends." "God keep me from false friends?" "But they were none." "The Prime Minister, Lord Hastings, comes to greet you." "Uncle Richard!" "Catesby... is it not an easy matter to make Lord Hastings of our mind..." "Catesby... is it not an easy matter to make Lord Hastings of our mind... ..For the instalment of this noble duke... ..ln the seat royal of our famous land?" "He for the late king's sake so loves the prince... ..That he will not do anything against him." "What think you, then, of Lord Stanley and the Archbishop?" "They will do all in all as Hastings does." "Call them tomorrow early to determine of the coronation." "And as it were far off, sound out Lord Hastings... ..and give us notice of his inclination." "Commend me to Hastings." "Tell him, Catesby, that Rivers is let blood." " Uncle!" " What would you have,... ..my little lord?" "Because that I am little, like an ape,... ..I think that you should bear me on your shoulders!" " Uncle Richard..." " Stanley." "Where shall we stay until our coronation?" "If I may counsel you, some day or two,... ..For your best health and recreation,... ..Your highness shall repose you at the Tower." "I shall not sleep in quiet at the Tower!" " Why?" "What should you fear?" " My uncle Clarence's angry ghost." "My grandma told me he was murdered there." "I fear no uncles dead." "Nor none who live, I hope!" "So wise so young, they say, do never live long." "Well, let them rest." "My Lord Protector, what shall we do if we perceive... ..Hastings will not yield to our plans?" "Chop off his head." "Something we shall determine." "And look when I am king,... ..claim you of me the earldom of Hereford... ..and all the movables whereof the king my brother was possessed." "I'll claim that promise of your royal hand." "And look to have it yielded with all kindness." "Come, let's to supper." "And then?" "My uncle dreamt tonight that the boar had shown his tusks." "Therefore he sends to know if you will shun the danger that his soul does fear." "Return to Lord Stanley." "Tell him his fears are shallow, wanting substance." "As for his dreams, I wonder he is so foolish." "Morning, Catesby." "Tell your uncle I shall see him at the meeting,... ..Where he shall see the boar will use us kindly." "Catesby, what news in this our tottering state?" "It is a reeling world indeed, sir,... ..And I believe will never stand upright... ..Till Richard wear the garland of the state." "How "wear the garland"?" "Do you mean the Crown?" "Yes, my lord." "I'll have this crown of mine cut from my shoulders... ..Before I see the Crown so foul misplaced!" "Hastings." "Where's your boar spear, Lord Stanley?" "Before a fortnight makes me older, I'll send some packing... ..that yet think not on it." "It is a vile thing to die when men are unprepared and look not for it." "Archbishop!" "You're early stirring." "I am glad to see you, Prime Minister." "Talking with a priest, Hastings?" "Your friend Rivers - he needed the priest!" "What is't o'clock?" "On the stroke of two." "Now, gentlemen, the cause why we are met... ..ls to determine of the coronation." "Well, speak." "When is the royal day?" "Are all things ready... for the royal time?" "They are." "Who knows the Lord Protector's mind in this?" "Your lordship, we think,..." " ..should soonest know his mind." " We know each other's faces." "For our hearts, he knows no more of mine than I of yours... ..Or I of his, my lord, than you of mine." "Hastings, you and he are near in love." "I have not sounded him,... ..But you, my noble lords, may name the time... ..And on the duke's behalf I'll give my voice." "Good day to you all." "I've been long a sleeper." "Had you not come upon your cue, my lord,... ..William, Lord Hastings, had pronounced your part." "Than my Lord Hastings no man might be bolder." "He knows me well and loves me well." "I pray you all,... ..tell me what they deserve who do conspire my death... ..and have prevailed upon my body... ..with their damned witchcraft." "I say, my lord, they have deserved death." "Then be your eyes..." "the witness of their evil." "See how I am bewitched." "Behold,... ..my arm is like a blasted sapling,... ..withered up by Queen Elizabeth, that monstrous witch!" "..withered up by Queen Elizabeth, that monstrous witch!" "If she has done this deed, my noble lord... lf?" "You protector of this damned Elizabeth!" "Talk you to me of "if"?" "You are a traitor!" "Off with his head!" "Now, by Saint Paul, I swear I will not dine until I see the same!" "Now, by Saint Paul, I swear I will not dine until I see the same!" "The rest that love me, rise and follow me!" "The duke would be at dinner." "He longs to see your head." "So dear I loved the man... ..that I must weep." "Would you imagine that the subtle traitor... ..had plotted in the parliament to murder me... ..and the Lord Protector?" "Had he done so?" "Lord Mayor, the civil peace... ..enforced us to this execution." "Now, he deserved his death." "And do not doubt... ..But that I shall acquaint my duteous city colleagues... ..With all your just proceedings in this cause." "Buckingham, go after to the Council House." "infer the bastardy... ..of Edward's children." "Moreover,... ..urge Edward's hateful lechery,... ..Which stretched unto their servants, daughters, wives!" "Doubt not, my lord, I'll play the orator,... ..As if the golden fee for which I plead... ..Were for myself." "Catesby." "Give order that no manner of person... ..Have any time recourse unto the princes." "When scarce the blood was well washed from his hands... ..Which issued from my other angel husband,..." "When, I say, I looked on Richard's face, this was my wish." ""Be you," l said, "accursed."" ""And when you wed, let sorrow haunt your bed."" "Within so small a time,... ..my woman's heart grossly grew captive to his honey words... ..my woman's heart grossly grew captive to his honey words... ..And proved subject to my own soul's curse." "Buckingham,... ..what say the citizens?" "Did you infer the bastardy of Edward's children?" "I did." "And the insatiate greediness of his desires;... ..His tyranny for trifles; his own bastardy!" "Your discipline in war, wisdom in peace,... ..Your bounty, virtue, fair humility." "And when my oratory drew to an end,... ..I bade those who did love their country's good... ..Cry "God save King Richard, England's royal king!"" " And did they so?" " No." " So God help me, they spoke not a word." " Bah!" "What tongueless blocks are they!" "Would they not speak?" "What tongueless blocks are they!" "Would they not speak?" "My Lord Mayor and his colleagues have arrived." "Pretend some fear!" "Be not easily won by our requests." "And, look you..." "get a prayer book in your hand." "Play the maid's part:" "still answer no and take it." "Ratcliffe." "No doubt we'll bring it to a happy issue." "You shall see what I can do." "Catesby." "He does entreat you, my Lord Buckingham,... ..to visit him tomorrow or next day." "He is within..." "with two right reverend priests." "Tell him myself, the Mayor and these gentlemen... ..Are come to have some conference with him." "I'll tell him what you say, my lord." "Ah, Lord Mayor." "Richard is not King Edward." "He is not lulling on a lewd love-bed, but meditating... ..with two deep divines, praying to enrich his watchful soul." "Happy were England, would this virtuous man take on his grace... ..the sovereignty thereof." "God defend Richard should say no to us." " l fear he will." "Catesby?" " He wonders to what end... ..you have assembled such troops of citizens to speak with him." "My lord, he fears you mean no good to him." "By heaven, we come to him in perfect love!" "My Lord Protector?" "Pray pardon us the interruption of your devotions." "My lord, there needs no such apology." "I do suspect I have done some offence." "You have." "Will it please you to amend your fault?" "Else wherefore breathe I in a Christian land?" "Know then, it is your fault that you refuse the supreme seat,... ..the throne majestical." "We heartily solicit you, take on the kingly government of this your land,... ..Not as Lord Protector, but from blood to blood,... ..Your right of birth, your empery, your own!" "Your love deserves my thanks." "But my desert, unmeritable, shuns your high request." "But my desert, unmeritable, shuns your high request." "First, if all obstacles were cut away,... ..Yet so much is my poverty of spirit,... ..So mighty and so many my defects,... ..That I should rather hide me from my greatness." "But, God be thanked, there is no need of me." "The royal tree has left us royal fruit." "You say the Prince of Wales is your brother's son." "So say we..." "but born before his wedding day." "Then, good my lord, take to your royal self... ..This proffered benefit of dignity!" " Good my Lord Protector!" " We entreat you..." "Truly, the hearts of men are full of fear." "Truly, the hearts of men are full of fear." "I am unfit for state and majesty." "Then we will plant some other on the throne!" "I do beseech you, take it not amiss." "I cannot nor I will not yield to you." "I do beseech you, take it not amiss." "I cannot nor I will not yield to you." "Your brother's son will never reign our king!" "Gentlemen, come, I will entreat no more!" "God's wounds!" "Oh, do not swear, my lord!" "Call him again, my lord!" "Accept the Crown!" "Will you enforce me to a world of cares?" "Call him again." "My lord!" "My Lord Buckingham!" "I'm not made of stone." "Gentlemen, since you will buckle fortune on my back,... ..I must have patience... ..to endure the load." "But God doth know, and you may partly see,... ..How far I am... ..from the desire of this." "If you will outstrip death,... ..go across the seas and live, dear Richmond, from the reach of hell!" "..go across the seas and live, dear Richmond, from the reach of hell!" "Go, my dear nephew, from this slaughterhouse." "Long live King Richard!" "Richard, Richard, Richard, Richard!" "Richard, Richard, Richard, Richard!" "Brackenbury, how are my sons, the princes?" "Right well, your majesty." "By your patience, I may not permit you to visit them." "The king has strictly charged the contrary." " The king?" " l mean, the Lord Protector." "The Lord protect him from that kingly title!" "I am their mother!" "Who should keep me from them?" "I am bound by oath,... ..and therefore pardon me." "Go you to Richard..." "and good angels guard you." "Stay yet." "Look back with me unto the Tower." "Pity, you ancient stones, those tender princes... ..Whom envy has immured within your walls,..." "..Rough cradle for such little pretty ones." "Rude, ragged nurse, use my babies well." "Now, Buckingham, thus high by your advice... ..and your assistance is King Richard seated." "But shall we wear these glories for a day,... ..Or shall they last and we rejoice in them?" "Still live they... ..and for ever let them last." "The princes live." "Think now what I would speak." "Say on, your majesty." "Why, Buckingham, I say I would be king." "Why, so you are!" "The princes live." "Buckingham, you never used to be so dull." "Shall I be plain?" "Buckingham, you never used to be so dull." "Shall I be plain?" "I wish the bastards dead,... ..And I would have it suddenly performed." "What say you now?" "Speak suddenly." "Be brief." "Your majesty may do your pleasure." "Tut, tut!" "You are all ice." "Your kindness freezes." "Say have I your consent that they shall die?" "Give me some little breath, some pause, your majesty,... ..Before I positively speak in this." "High-reaching Buckingham grows circumspect." "Has he held out so long with me untired... ..And stops he now for breath?" "Well!" "Be it so." "Lord Stanley!" "Your majesty." "What's the news?" "The Archbishop, as I hear,... ..Has joined with Richmond in France, your majesty." "Richmond aims to marry young Elizabeth,... ..My brother Edward's daughter,... ..And, by that knot, he hopes to gain my crown." "Richmond is your nephew." "Well,... ..look to it." " Your majesty." " Catesby!" "Rumour it abroad that Anne, my wife, is very grievous sick." "Rumour it abroad that Anne, my wife, is very grievous sick." "Look how you dream." "I say again, give out that Anne, my queen, is sick and like to die." "Tyrell." "I must be married now to young Elizabeth,... ..Or else my kingdom stands on brittle glass." "Murder her brothers and then marry her." "Tyrell." "Dare you resolve to kill a friend of mine?" "Sir, please you, I'd rather kill two enemies." "There you have it." "Two deep enemies." "Tyrell,... ..I mean those bastards in the Tower." "Say it is done and I will love you for it." "It... is... done,... ..your majesty." "Your majesty,... ..I claim the earldom of Hereford, which you promised I should possess." "..I claim the earldom of Hereford, which you promised I should possess." "Well, let that rest." "The Archbishop has fled to Richmond." "I hear the news." "What says your majesty to my just request?" "It was prophesied that Richmond should be king." "A king, perhaps." " Perhaps." " Your promise for the earldom." "Riche-monde!" " Your majesty, I..." " Yes!" "What's o'clock?" "I am thus bold to put your majesty in mind of what you promised me." "But what's o'clock?" " On the stroke of ten." " Then let it strike." "Why let it strike?" "Because that, like a jack, you keep the stroke... ..Between your begging and my meditation." "I am not in the giving vein today." "Why then, resolve me whether you will or no." "You trouble me!" "I am not in the vein!" "Never yet one hour in his bed... ..Have I enjoyed the golden dew of sleep,... ..But have been awoken by his timorous dreams." "Besides, he hates me... ..And will, no doubt, shortly be rid of me." "Let me think of Hastings and be gone." "Kind Tyrell,... ..am I happy in your news?" "It is done, your majesty." "But did you see them dead... ..and buried?" "I did, your majesty." "Gentle Tyrell." "Come to me, Tyrell, soon... ..at after supper,... ..When you shall tell the story of their death." "Meanwhile, but think how I may do you good... ..And be inheritor of your desire." "The sons of Edward sleep in Abraham's bosom,..." "And Anne,... ..my wife, shall bid this world good night." "Uncertain way of gain,... ..But I am in so far in blood that sin will pluck on sin." "..But I am in so far in blood that sin will pluck on sin." "Tear-falling pity dwells not in this eye." "Your majesty, on the southern coast there rides a powerful navy." "It's thought that Richmond is its admiral." "Buckingham has fled to welcome him ashore." "We must be brief when traitors brave the field." "Are you my son?" "Yes, I thank God, my father and yourself." "You toad!" "Where are the princes and your wife?" "Mother,... ..I have a touch of your condition,... ..That cannot brook the accent of reproof." "Oh, let me speak!" "Be brief, dear mother, for l am in haste." "A grievous burden was your birth to me!" "And came I not at last to comfort you?" "You came on earth to make the earth my hell!" "Tetchy and wayward was your infancy,... ..Your schooldays frightful, desperate, wild and furious,... ..Your prime of manhood daring, bold and venturous,... ..Your age confirmed, proud, subtle, sly and bloody!" "What comfortable hour can you name That ever graced me with your company?" " lf l be so disgracious..." " Oh, hear me a little,... ..For I shall never speak to you again!" "To war take with you my most grievous curse!" "My prayers shall on Richmond's party fight." "Bloody you are, bloody will be your end!" "Shame serves your life and will your death attend!" "I leave for France." "Be not tongue-tied." "You're a dream of what you were..." "a breath, a queen in jest!" "Where is your husband now?" "Where is your brother?" "Where are your two sons?" "Wherein joy?" "Who sues and kneels and says, "God save the queen"?" "Where are the bended peers that flattered you?" "Where be the thronging troops that followed you?" "Teach me how to curse my enemy!" "Forbear to sleep the nights and fast the days." "Think that your babes were sweeter than they were... ..And he that slew them fouler than he is!" "Tell me, you villain slave,... ..where are my children?" "Where is my brother Rivers and your brother Clarence?" "Where is Lord Hastings?" "Elizabeth,... ..I must talk a word with you." "I've no more sons of the royal blood... ..for you to slaughter!" "You have a daughter... ..called Elizabeth." "Must she die for this?" "Oh..." "let her live." "Her life is safest only in her birth." "And only in that safety died her brothers." "You speak as if that I had slain the princes." "No doubt the murderer's knife was dull and blunt... ..Till it was sharpened... ..on your stone-hard heart to revel in the entrails of my lambs!" "Ma'am, I intend more good to you and yours... ..Than ever you or yours by me were harmed." "Tell me, what state, what dignity, what honour... ..Can you bestow on any child of mine?" "Even all I have,... ..yes, and myself and all... ..Will I withal endow a child of yours." "Be brief, lest that the process of your kindness... ..Lasts longer telling than your kindness' date." "Know, then, that with my soul I love your daughter... ..And do intend to make her... ..Queen of England." "What?" "You?" "What think you of it?" "How can you woo her?" "Now, that would I learn of you." " And will you learn of me?" " Madam, with all my heart." "Send to her by the man who slew her brothers... ..A pair of bleeding hearts, then will she weep." "If this inducement move her not,... ..Send her a letter of your noble deeds." "Tell her you made away her uncle Clarence, her uncle Rivers,..." "Tell her you made away her uncle Clarence, her uncle Rivers,... ..yes, and for her sake made quick conveyance with her good aunt Anne!" "You mock me, madam, this is not the way..." " .." "To win your daughter." " There is no other way,... ..Unless you could put on some other shape... ..And not be Richard who's done all this!" "Say that I did all this for love of her." "Well, then, she cannot choose but hate you." "What is done cannot be now amended." "Men shall deal unadvisedly sometimes." "If I did take the kingdom from your sons,... ..To make amends I'll give it to your daughter." "Again you shall be mother of a king,... ..what?" "We have many goodly days to see." "The liquid drops of tears that you have shed... ..Shall come again, transformed to orient pearl." "Go then, my mother, to your daughter go." "Make bold her bashful years with your experience." "Acquaint the princess with the sweet silent hours of marriage joys." "Acquaint the princess with the sweet silent hours of marriage joys." "And when these troops of mine have chastised... ..The petty rebel Richmond and dull-brained Buckingham,... ..Bound with triumphant garlands will I come... ..And lead your daughter to a conqueror's bed." "What were I best to say?" "Say she shall be a high and mighty queen." "To wail the title, as her mother does?" "Say I will love her everlastingly." "But how long, fairly, shall her sweet life last?" "As long as heaven and nature lengthens it." "As long as hell and Richard like of it!" "Your reasons are too shallow and too quick." "Oh, no, my reasons are too deep and dead,... ..Too deep and dead my infants in their graves!" "Harp not on that string, madam, that is past!" "Harp on it still shall I till heartstrings break!" "I know that Richmond aims to wed Elizabeth." "In her consists my happiness... and yours." "Without her follows to myself and you,... ..Herself, the land, and many a Christian soul,... ..Death, desolation, ruin and decay!" "It cannot be avoided but by this." "Be the attorney of my love... ..to her." "Plead... ..what I will be,..." "..not what I've been." "Shall I be tempted by the devil thus?" "Yes, if the devil tempt you to do good." "But you did kill my children." "But in your daughter's womb I bury them,... ..Wherein that nest of spicery... ..they will breed." "Shall I go win my daughter to your will?" "And be a happy mother by the deed." "Write to me very shortly,... ..And you shall understand from me her mind." "Bear her my true love's kiss." "Farewell." "Relenting fool... ..and shallow, changing woman!" "Lord Stanley,... ..what's the news with you?" "None good, your majesty,..." " ..nor none so bad." " Hoyday, a riddle!" "Neither good nor bad." "Once more, what news?" " Richmond is on the seas." " Then be the seas on him!" "What does he there?" "Your majesty, I know not, but by guess..." " Well, as you guess?" " Stirred up by Buckingham,... ..He makes for England, here to claim the Crown." "is the throne empty?" "is the king dead?" "You will revolt and fly to him, I fear." "I never was nor never will be false." "Go, then, and muster men,... ..but leave behind with us... ..your son, young George." "Stanley, look your heart be firm,... ..Or else his head's assurance is but frail." "Your majesty, the Duke of Buckingham..." "Till you bring better news!" ""The Duke of Buckingham is taken prisoner."" "I cry you mercy." "Richmond is landed with a mighty power from France." "Let's go to meet him." "While we reason here,... ..A royal battle might be won and lost." "Tyrell, give order Buckingham be brought!" "Welcome." " Brackenbury." " Richmond." "Fortune and victory be with you, nephew." "The queen has heartily consented that I marry Princess Elizabeth." "England rejoice!" "Good Lord Stanley, Brackenbury." "Prepare your advance early in the morning." "On your side I may not be too forward." "Your cousin George is held in custody." "Wretched, bloody and usurping swine!" "I do not doubt but his friends will turn to you." "He has no friends." "Will not King Richard let me speak with him?" "No, my good lord." "Made I him king for this?" "Tyrell, why look you so sad?" "My heart is ten times lighter than my looks, my lord." "What is't o'clock?" " lt's supper time, your majesty." " l'll not sup tonight." "Let's consult upon tomorrow's business." " What is the number of the traitors?" " Six or seven thousand, your majesty." "Our battalion trebles that account." "Besides, the king's name... ..is a tower of strength." "Catesby!" "Your majesty." "Send to Lord Stanley." "Bid him bring his force... ..Before sunrising, lest his son George fall... ..into the blind cave of eternal night." "Leave me." "I will." "Stir with the lark tomorrow, gentle Tyrell." "Your majesty." "Leave me, I say." "Oh, Lord,... ..let Richmond and Elizabeth..." "..by your fair ordinance... ..be joined together." "And let their heirs, God, if thy will be so,..." "And let their heirs, God, if thy will be so,... ..Enrich the time to come..." "..with smooth-faced peace." "Oh, thou whose captain I account myself,..." "Oh, thou whose captain I account myself,... ..Look on my forces with a gracious eye,... ..Put in their hands thy bruising arms of wrath... ..That we may praise thee in thy victory." "Sleeping... ..and waking,..." "..defend me still." "Are you my son?" "You toad!" "Richard, you do me shame!" "Bloody will be your end!" "You do infect my eyes!" "I have too long borne your blunt upbraidings!" "Because that I am little, like an ape,... ..I think that you should bear me on your back!" "Where are my children?" "I did but dream." "Oh, coward conscience!" "What do I fear?" "There's none else by." "Richard loves Richard,... ..that is, I am I." "is there a murderer here?" "No!" "Yes..." "I am." "I love myself, but why?" "For any good that I myself have done unto myself?" "Oh, no." "Alack, I rather hate myself..." "..For hateful deeds committed by myself." "I'm a villain." "But I lie, I am not." "Fool, of thyself speak well." "Fool, do not flatter." "My conscience has a thousand several tongues... ..Thronged to the bar, crying all, "Guilty!" "Guilty!"" "I shall despair!" "There is no creature loves me,... ..And if I die,... ..no soul will pity me." "Your majesty." "Ratcliffe?" "Will all our friends prove true?" " No doubt, your majesty." " Ratcliffe, I fear..." "I fear!" "Oh, no, your majesty,... ..be not afraid of shadows." "How have you slept, my lord?" "The sweetest sleep,... ..the fairest-boding dreams... ..That ever entered in a drowsy head." "Conscience is but a word that cowards use." "Remember whom you are to cope with,... ..all a sort of vagabonds, rascals and runaways." "And who does lead 'em but a paltry fellow, a milksop?" "If we be conquered,... ..let men conquer us." "Let's whip these stragglers over the seas again!" "Shall these enjoy our lambs?" "Lie with our wives?" "Ravish our daughters?" "What says Lord Stanley?" "Will he bring his force?" "My lord, he has refused to come to you." "Then off with his son George's head." "Stanley!" "Your majesty!" "Your majesty!" "Go!" "A horse!" "A horse!" "My kingdom for a horse!" "James Tyrell, rescue!" "Escape, your majesty, escape!" "I'll help you to a horse!" "Escape?" "Slave!" "Stop!" "Richard!" "Richard!" "No... no!"
