                         KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



                      SCENE 4。 A camp in Wales 



    Enter EARL OF SALISBURY and a WELSH CAPTAIN 

      CAPTAIN。      My   Lord  of  Salisbury;  we  have  stay'd  ten  days  And 

hardly kept our countrymen together; And yet we hear no tidings from the 

King; Therefore we will disperse ourselves。 Farewell。 SALISBURY。 Stay 

yet   another   day;  thou  trusty  Welshman;    The   King   reposeth   all  his 

confidence in thee。 CAPTAIN。 'Tis thought the King is dead; we will not 

stay。 The bay trees in our country are all wither'd; And meteors fright the 

fixed stars of heaven; The pale…fac'd moon looks bloody on the earth; And 

lean…look'd   prophets   whisper   fearful  change;  Rich  men   look  sad;  and 

ruffians dance and leap… The one in fear to lose what they enjoy; The other 

to enjoy by rage and war。 These signs forerun the death or fall of kings。 

Farewell。 Our countrymen are gone and fled; As well assur'd Richard their 

King is dead。 Exit SALISBURY。 Ah; Richard; with the eyes of heavy mind; 

I  see  thy  glory  like  a  shooting  star  Fall  to  the  base  earth  from  the 

firmament! The sun sets weeping in the lowly west; Witnessing storms to 

come; woe; and unrest; Thy friends are fled; to wait upon thy foes; And 

crossly to thy good all fortune goes。 Exit

                            KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



         SCENE I。 BOLINGBROKE'S camp at Bristol 



     Enter    BOLINGBROKE;           YORK;      NORTHUMBERLAND;                PERCY; 

ROSS; WILLOUGHBY; BUSHY and GREEN; prisoners 

       BOLINGBROKE。   Bring   forth   these   men。   Bushy   and   Green;   I   will 

not vex your souls… Since presently your souls must part your bodies… With 

too much urging your pernicious lives; For 'twere no charity; yet; to wash 

your blood From off my hands; here in the view of men I will unfold some 

causes of   your deaths: You have   misled   a   prince;  a   royal   king; A  happy 

gentleman   in   blood   and   lineaments;   By   you   unhappied   and   disfigured 

clean; You have in manner with your sinful hours Made a divorce betwixt 

his queen and him; Broke the possession of a royal bed; And stain'd the 

beauty of a fair queen's cheeks With tears drawn from her eyes by   your 

foul wrongs; Myself…a prince by fortune of my birth; Near to the King in 

blood;   and   near   in   love   Till   you   did   make   him   misinterpret   me…   Have 

stoop'd   my   neck   under   your   injuries   And   sigh'd   my   English   breath   in 

foreign clouds; Eating the bitter bread of banishment; Whilst you have fed 

upon my signories; Dispark'd my parks and fell'd my forest woods; From 

my own windows torn my household coat; Raz'd out my imprese; leaving 

me no sign Save men's opinions and my living blood To show the world I 

am   a   gentleman。   This   and   much   more;   much   more   than   twice   all   this; 

Condemns you to the death。 See them delivered over To execution and the 

hand of death。 BUSHY。 More welcome is the stroke of death to me Than 

Bolingbroke   to   England。   Lords;   farewell。   GREEN。   My   comfort   is   that 

heaven   will   take   our   souls; And   plague   injustice   with   the   pains   of   hell。 

BOLINGBROKE。 My Lord Northumberland; see them dispatch'd。 Exeunt 

NORTHUMBERLAND; and others; with the prisoners Uncle; you say the 

Queen is at your house; For God's sake; fairly let her be entreated。 Tell her 

I   send   to   her   my   kind   commends;   Take   special   care   my   greetings   be 

delivered。 YORK。 A gentleman of mine I have dispatch'd With letters of 

your love to her at large。 BOLINGBROKE。 Thanks; gentle uncle。 Come; 

lords; away; To fight with Glendower and his complices。 Awhile to work; 

and after holiday。 Exeunt

                             KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



          SCENE 2。 The coast of Wales。 A castle in view 



     Drums。      Flourish    and   colours。    Enter   the   KING;     the  BISHOP       OF 

CARLISLE; AUMERLE; and soldiers 

       KING      RICHARD。         Barkloughly      Castle    can   they    this  at   hand? 

AUMERLE。 Yea; my lord。 How brooks your Grace the air After your late 

tossing on the breaking seas? KING RICHARD。 Needs must I like it well。 

I   weep   for   joy To   stand upon   my  kingdom  once   again。  Dear   earth;  I   do 

salute   thee   with   my   hand;   Though   rebels   wound   thee   with   their   horses' 

hoofs。 As a long…parted mother with her child Plays fondly with her tears 

and smiles in meeting; So weeping…smiling greet I thee; my earth; And do 

thee favours with my royal hands。 Feed not thy sovereign's foe; my gentle 

earth; Nor with thy sweets comfort his ravenous sense; But let thy spiders; 

that suck up thy venom; And heavy…gaited toads; lie in their way; Doing 

annoyance to the treacherous feet Which with usurping steps do trample 

thee;   Yield   stinging   nettles   to   mine   enemies;   And   when   they   from   thy 

bosom pluck a flower; Guard it; I pray thee; with a lurking adder; Whose 

double tongue may with a mortal touch Throw death upon thy sovereign's 

enemies。 Mock not my senseless conjuration; lords。 This earth shall have a 

feeling; and these stones Prove armed soldiers; ere her native king Shall 

falter   under   foul   rebellion's   arms。   CARLISLE。   Fear   not;   my   lord;   that 

Power that made you king Hath power to keep you king in spite of all。 The 

means   that   heaven   yields   must   be   embrac'd   And   not   neglected;   else;   if 

heaven would; And we will not; heaven's offer we refuse; The proffered 

means   of   succour   and   redress。 AUMERLE。   He   means;   my  lord; that   we 

are   too   remiss;   Whilst   Bolingbroke;   through   our   security;   Grows   strong 

and   great   in   substance  and   in   power。   KING   RICHARD。   Discomfortable 

cousin!   know'st   thou   not That   when   the   searching   eye   of   heaven   is   hid; 

Behind   the  globe;   that   lights   the   lower   world; Then   thieves   and   robbers 

range   abroad   unseen   In   murders   and   in   outrage   boldly   here;   But   when 

from under this terrestrial ball He fires the proud tops of the eastern pines 

And darts his light through every guilty hole; Then murders; treasons; and 

detested sins; The cloak of night being pluck'd from off their backs; Stand 

bare and naked; trembling at themselves? So when this thief; this traitor; 



                                             35

                             KING RICHARD THE SECOND 



Bolingbroke; Who all this while hath revell'd in the night; Whilst we were 

wand'ring with the Antipodes; Shall see us rising in our throne; the east; 

His treasons will sit blushing in his face; Not able to endure the sight of 

day; But self…affrighted tremble at his sin。 Not all the water in the rough 

rude   sea
