Robert of Artois, banished though thou be			Robert von Artois, banished, even though you should be

Thou shalt retain as great a Seigniorie:			You should keep a great seed niory:

Three sons of his, which all successfully			Three sons of him, all of whom are successful
Did sit upon their father's regal Throne,			Sat on the royal throne of her father,
Yet died, and left no issue of their loins.			But no edition of their loins died and left.
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
But was my mother sister unto those?			But was my mother sister for them?
ARTOIS.			Artois.
She was, my Lord; and only Isabel			She was my gentleman; And only Isabel
Was all the daughters that this Phillip had,			Were all the daughters that this Phillip had,
Whom afterward your father took to wife;			Who then your father went to wife;
And from the fragrant garden of her womb			And from the fragrant garden of your body
Your gracious self, the flower of Europe's hope,			Your gracious self, the flower of Europe's hope,
Derived is inheritor to France.			The heir to France is derived.
But note the rancor of rebellious minds:			However, note the Rancor rebellious heads:
When thus the lineage of le Bew was out,			If so was the lit of Leb,
The French obscured your mother's Privilege,			The French covered the privilege of their mother,
And, though she were the next of blood, proclaimed			And although she was the next blood, announced
John, of the house of Valois, now their king:			John from Valois' house, now her king:
The reason was, they say, the Realm of France,			The reason, as they say, was the realm of France,
Replete with Princes of great parentage,			Full of prince of the great descent,
Ought not admit a governor to rule,			Shouldn't allow governors to rule, rule,
Except he be descended of the male;			Unless he comes from the man;
And that's the special ground of their contempt,			And that is the special reason for your contempt,
Wherewith they study to exclude your grace:			Where to study to exclude their grace:
But they shall find that forged ground of theirs			But you will find this forged floor from you
To be but dusty heaps of brittle sand.			Only be dusty piles of brittle sand.
Perhaps it will be thought a heinous thing,			Maybe it is thought to be a hideous thing
That I, a French man, should discover this;			That I, a French one, should discover;
But heaven I call to record of my vows:			But the sky I call to record my vows:
It is not hate nor any private wrong,			It is neither hatred nor a private wrong
But love unto my country and the right,			But love for my country and the right
Provokes my tongue, thus lavish in report.			Provokes my tongue and so in report.
You are the lineal watchman of our peace,			You are the ruler of our peace,
And John of Valois indirectly climbs;			And John von Valois climbs indirectly;
What then should subjects but embrace their King?			Then what should hug among the subjects, but hug their king?
Ah, where in may our duty more be seen,			Ah, where our duty will be seen more in May,
Than striving to rebate a tyrant's pride			Than to strive after the pride of a tyrant
And place the true shepherd of our commonwealth?			And place the true shepherd of our Commonwealth?
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
This counsel, Artois, like to fruitful showers,			This advice, artois, gladly fertile showers,
Hath added growth unto my dignity;			I added growth to my dignity;
And, by the fiery vigor of thy words,			And through the fiery power of your words,
Hot courage is engendered in my breast,			Hot courage is produced in my chest
Which heretofore was raked in ignorance,			Which one was in ignorance so far,
But now doth mount with golden wings of fame,			But now he has golden wings of fame,
And will approve fair Isabel's descent,			And is approved fairly Isabel's descent,
Able to yoke their stubborn necks with steel,			Able to spin their stubborn necks with steel,
That spurn against my sovereignty in France.			This spurned my sovereignty in France.

The Guyen Dukedom is entailed to thee,			The Guyen Dukedom is connected to you,
Thou do him lowly homage for the same.			You make him a low homage for the same.

Repair to France within these forty days,			Repair to France within these forty days,
That there, according as the custom is,			That there is according to the custom
Thou mayst be sworn true liegeman to our King;			You like that you have sworn in our king true lounge;
Or else thy title in that province dies,			Or otherwise your title dies in this province,
And he him self will repossess the place.			And he will replace the place himself.
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
See, how occasion laughs me in the face!			See how occasionally laughing in my face!

But straight I am invited,--nay, with threats,			But I am just invited,-no, with threats,
Upon a penalty, enjoined to come:			In the event of a punishment that was coming:
Twere but a childish part to say him nay.--			Twere, but a childlike part to say it, no .---
Lorrain, return this answer to thy Lord:			Lorrain, return this answer to your Lord:
I mean to visit him as he requests;			I want to visit him as he asks;
But how? not servilely disposed to bend,			But how? not to bend servil,
But like a conqueror to make him bow.			But like a conqueror to bow.
His lame unpolished shifts are come to light;			His lame non -polished shifts are brought to light;
And truth hath pulled the vizard from his face,			And the truth pulled the vizard out of his face,
That set a gloss upon his arrogance.			This set his arrogance to the shine.
Dare he command a fealty in me?			Do you dare order a loyalty in me?
Tell him, the Crown that he usurps, is mine,			Tell him, the crown that he usurpates belongs to me,
And where he sets his foot, he ought to kneel.			And where he sets his foot, he should kneel.
Tis not a petty Dukedom that I claim,			It is not a little duker that I say
But all the whole Dominions of the Realm;			But all all the rule of the empire;
Which if with grudging he refuse to yield,			What if he refuses to lean, give in,
I'll take away those borrowed plumes of his,			I will take these borrowed feathers away from him
And send him naked to the wilderness.			And send him naked into the wilderness.

My gracious father, and these other Lords,			My gracious father and these other lords,
I hold thy message but as scurrilous,			I keep your message, but so bizarre,
And him that sent thee, like the lazy drone,			And the one who sent you like the lazy drone,
Crept up by stealth unto the Eagle's nest;			Sneaked into the nest of the eagle by stealth;
>From whence we'll shake him with so rough a storm,			> From where we will shake it with such a rough storm,
As others shall be warned by his harm.			As others are warned of his damage.

The soundest counsel I can give his grace,			The roundest advice that I can give his grace,
Is to surrender ere he be constrained.			Must be given up before it is restricted.
A voluntary mischief hath less scorn,			Voluntary disaster has less contemptuous
Than when reproach with violence is borne.			As if the accusation is carried by force.

Fervent desire that sits against my heart,			Fervent desire that sits against my heart,
Is far more thorny pricking than this blade;			Is far more thorny spines than this blade;
That, with the nightingale, I shall be scared,			That I am afraid of the Nightingale
As oft as I dispose my self to rest,			How often I remove myself to rest
Until my colours be displayed in France:			Until my colors are displayed in France:
This is my final Answer; so be gone.			This is my final answer; So be gone.

It is not that, nor any English brave,			It is neither so brave, brave,
Afflicts me so, as doth his poisoned view,			Concerns me like his poisoned view,

Which shoots infected poison in my heart,			What is the infected poison in my heart,
Beyond repulse of wit or cure of Art.			Beyond the repulses of the joke or the healing of art.
Now, in the Sun alone it doth not lie,			Well, in the sun alone it is not to be lying
With light to take light from a mortal eye;			With light to take light from a mortal eye;
For here two day stars that mine eyes would see			Because here two -day stars that would see my eyes
More than the Sun steals mine own light from me,			More than the sun, my own light steals from me,
Contemplative desire, desire to be			Contemplative desire to be a wish
In contemplation, that may master thee!			In contemplation this can control you!

Flatter our earth and suddenly be done.			Flatter our earth and are suddenly done.
More happy do not make our outward wall			You don't make our outer wall more happy
Than thou wilt grace our inner house withal.			When you give with our inner house with the interior.
Our house, my liege, is like a Country swain,			Our house, my lucks, is like a land weak.
Whose habit rude and manners blunt and plain			Their habit rude and manners dull and simple
Presageth nought, yet inly beautified			Presstrageth nothing, but intelligently embellished
With bounties, riches and faire hidden pride.			With head money, wealth and fair hidden pride.
For where the golden Ore doth buried lie,			Because where the gold ore is buried, lies,
The ground, undecked with nature's tapestry,			The floor, without a deck with a wall carpet of nature,
Seems barren, sere, unfertile, fructless, dry;			Seems sterile, sere, unexpected, fruitless, dry;
And where the upper turf of earth doth boast			And where the upper smell of earth has itself
His pied perfumes and party coloured coat,			His pied perfumes and colored coat,
Delve there, and find this issue and their pride			Tiefel yourself there and find this problem and your pride
To spring from ordure and corruption's side.			To jump from the ordinance and corruption side.
But, to make up my all too long compare,			But to make my too long compare
These ragged walls no testimony are,			These ragged walls are not statements, are,
What is within; but, like a cloak, doth hide			What is within; But like a cloak hide
>From weather's Waste the under garnished pride.			> The pride under garnished is wasted from the weather.
More gracious then my terms can let thee be,			More gracious than my conditions can be you
Intreat thy self to stay a while with me.			Integrate yourself to stay with me for a while.

I might perceive his eye in her eye lost,			I could take his eye lost in her eye
His ear to drink her sweet tongue's utterance,			His ear to drink the statement of her sweet tongue,
And changing passion, like inconstant clouds			And change passionate as inconsistent clouds
That rack upon the carriage of the winds,			The rack on the slide of the winds,
Increase and die in his disturbed cheeks.			Increase and die in his disturbed cheeks.
Lo, when she blushed, even then did he look pale,			Lo, when she blushed, he also looked pale
As if her cheeks by some enchanted power			As if their cheeks through an enchanted force
Attracted had the cherry blood from his:			The cherry blood had put on from his:
Anon, with reverent fear when she grew pale,			Anon, with an awaiting fear, when she became pale,
His cheeks put on their scarlet ornaments;			His cheeks attracted their scarlet ornaments;
But no more like her oriental red,			But no longer like their oriental red,
Than Brick to Coral or live things to dead.			As a brick to corals or living things up to dead.
Why did he then thus counterfeit her looks?			Then why did he fake her appearance?
If she did blush, twas tender modest shame,			When she blushed, it was delicate, shame,
Being in the sacred presence of a King;			To be in the holy presence of a king;
If he did blush, twas red immodest shame,			When he blushed, the red, unexpected shame,
To veil his eyes amiss, being a king;			Increase his eyes, to be a king;
If she looked pale, twas silly woman's fear,			If she looked pale, the fear of the silly woman, fear, was afraid
To bear her self in presence of a king;			To wear yourself in the presence of a king;
If he looked pale, it was with guilty fear,			If he looked pale, it was with guilty fear
To dote amiss, being a mighty king.			To disparage to be a powerful king.
Then, Scottish wars, farewell; I fear twill prove			Then Scottish wars, farewell; I'm afraid, Pew prove

Breathes from the wall an Angel's note from Heaven			Breathe from the wall of the grade of an angel from heaven
Of sweet defiance to her barbarous foes.			Of sweet despite against their barbaric enemies.
When she would talk of peace, me thinks, her tongue			When she spoke of peace, I think her tongue
Commanded war to prison; when of war,			Ordered war on prison; When the war,
It wakened Caesar from his Roman grave,			It woke Caesar from his Roman grave,
To hear war beautified by her discourse.			To hear war through their discourse.
Wisdom is foolishness but in her tongue,			Wisdom is stupidity, but in her tongue,
Beauty a slander but in her fair face,			Beauty a defamation, but in her fair face,
There is no summer but in her cheerful looks,			There is no summer, but in their happy appearance
Nor frosty winter but in her disdain.			Still frosty winter, but in their contempt.
I cannot blame the Scots that did besiege her,			I cannot accuse the Scots that they beaned
For she is all the Treasure of our land;			Because it is the whole treasure of our country;
But call them cowards, that they ran away,			But call them cowards that they ran away
Having so rich and fair a cause to stay.--			As rich and fair to remain a reason .---

To bring thee hither an enchanted pen,			To bring you to an enchanted pen,
That may for sighs set down true sighs indeed,			This can indeed break down true sigh for sighs,
Talking of grief, to make thee ready groan;			Speaking of grief to finish yourself;
And when thou writest of tears, encouch the word			And if you have written tears, hide the word
Before and after with such sweet laments,			Before and after with such sweet complaints,
That it may raise drops in a Tartar's eye,			That it can increase drops in the eye of a tartar,
And make a flintheart Scythian pitiful;			and make a Flinheart Sythian pitiful;
For so much moving hath a Poet's pen:			Because the pen of a poet has so much moving:

Whose bod is an abstract or a brief,			Whose body is an abstract or a short part,
Contains each general virtue in the world.			Contains every general virtue in the world.
Better than beautiful thou must begin,			Better than nice, you have to start
Devise for fair a fairer word than fair,			Develop a fairer word as fair for Fairer,
And every ornament that thou wouldest praise,			And every ornament you would praise
Fly it a pitch above the soar of praise.			Fly over the praise.
For flattery fear thou not to be convicted;			For flattery you find that you will not be convicted;
For, were thy admiration ten times more,			Because were your admiration ten times more
Ten times ten thousand more the worth exceeds			Ten times ten thousand more the value exceeds
Of that thou art to praise, thy praises worth.			Domit du praise, worth your praise.
Begin; I will to contemplate the while:			Begin; I will think about the time:

Of such estate, that hers is as a throne,			Such a estate that she is a throne
And my estate the footstool where she treads:			And my estate of the footstorm, where it kicks:
Then maist thou judge what her condition is			Then judge what your condition is
By the proportion of her mightiness.			Through the proportion of their power.
Write on, while I peruse her in my thoughts.--			Continue to write while I let you through in my thoughts .----
Her voice to music or the nightingale--			Your voice to music or in the Nightingale
To music every summer leaping swain			Every summer music jumps cocks
Compares his sunburnt lover when she speaks;			Compare his sunburn lover when she speaks;
And why should I speak of the nightingale?			And why should I speak of the nightingale?
The nightingale sings of adulterate wrong,			The Nightingale sings the falsification incorrectly,
And that, compared, is too satyrical;			And that is compared to satyrical;
For sin, though sin, would not be so esteemed,			For sin, although sin would not be appreciated so much,
But, rather, virtue sin, sin virtue deemed.			But rather virtue sin, sin virtue that considered.

I have not to a period brought her praise.			I didn't bring her praise at a time.
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
Her praise is as my love, both infinite,			Your praise is like my love, both infinite,
Which apprehend such violent extremes,			The such violent extremes grasp,

Her beauty hath no match but my affection;			Your beauty has no game, but my affection;
Hers more than most, mine most and more than more:			Your more than most, mine the most and more than more:
Hers more to praise than tell the sea by drops,			To praise their more than tell the sea through drops,
Nay, more than drop the massy earth by sands,			No, more than the Masy earth through sand,
And sand by sand print them in memory:			And sand through sand printed in memory:

More fair and chaste than is the queen of shades,'--			Fairer and Keuscher as the queen of the colors'-
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
That line hath two faults, gross and palpable:			This line has two mistakes, coarse and noticeable:
Comparest thou her to the pale queen of night,			Compare them to the pale queen of the night,
Who, being set in dark, seems therefore light?			Who to be in the dark therefore seems easy to be?
What is she, when the sun lifts up his head,			What is it when the sun raises its head?
But like a fading taper, dim and dead?			But how a fading rejuvenation, weak and dead?
My love shall brave the eye of heaven at noon,			My love will defy the eye of the sky at noon,
And, being unmasked, outshine the golden sun.			And when unmasked exceed the golden sun.
LODOWICK.			Lodwickick.
What is the other fault, my sovereign Lord?			What is the other fault, my sovereign gentleman?

More fair and chaste'--			Fairer and Keuscher '-
KING EDWARD.			King Edward.
I did not bid thee talk of chastity,			I haven't talked about chastity
To ransack so the treasure of her mind;			To search the treasure of their mind;
For I had rather have her chased than chaste.			Because I preferred to follow her than chaste.
Out with the moon line, I will none of it;			I don't get any of it with the moon line;
And let me have her likened to the sun:			And let me be compared with the sun:
Say she hath thrice more splendour than the sun,			Say, she has three times more splendid than the sun,
That her perfections emulate the sun,			That their perfections emulate the sun,
That she breeds sweets as plenteous as the sun,			That she breeds sweets as abundant as the sun,
That she doth thaw cold winter like the sun,			That they open cold winter like the sun,
That she doth cheer fresh summer like the sun,			The fact that she cheers the fresh summer like the sun cheer
The she doth dazzle gazers like the sun;			It drags herself like the sun;
And, in this application to the sun,			And in this application to the sun,
Bid her be free and general as the sun,			Offer that it is free and generally like the sun,
Who smiles upon the basest weed that grows			Anyone who smiles on the most fundamental weeds grows
As lovingly as on the fragrant rose.			As loving as on the fragrant rose.
Let's see what follows that same moonlight line.			Let's see what the same moon light line follows.

No, let the Captain talk of boisterous war,			No, let the captain speak about exuberant war,
The prisoner of emured dark constraint,			The prisoner of the inherited dark restrictions,
The sick man best sets down the pangs of death,			The sick man best defines the die
The man that starves the sweetness of a feast,			The man who starved the sweetness of a festival,
The frozen soul the benefit of fire,			The frozen soul the advantage of fire,
And every grief his happy opposite:			And every grief of his happy opposite:
Love cannot sound well but in lover's tongues;			Love cannot sound good, but in the tongues of the lover;

Pitying thy youth is so ingirt with peril,			Pity with your youth is so dangerous
By me hath sent a nimble jointed jennet,			A nimble Jennet sent a nimble Jennet from me
As swift as ever yet thou didst bestride,			As quickly as you have made,
And therewithall he counsels thee to fly;			And with that he advises you to fly;
Else death himself hath sworn that thou shalt die.			Otherwise, death itself has sworn that you should die.
PRINCE EDWARD.			PRINZ EDWARD.
Back with the beast unto the beast that sent him!			Back with the animal to the animal that sent him!
Tell him I cannot sit a coward's horse;			Tell him, I can't sit a coward horse.
Bid him to day bestride the jade himself,			Offer the jade itself to the best of the day,
For I will stain my horse quite o'er with blood,			Because I will color my horse quite a bit with blood
And double gild my spurs, but I will catch him;			And doubled my Spurs, but I will catch him;
So tell the carping boy, and get thee gone.			Tell the guards and go away.

Edward of Wales, Phillip, the second son			Edward from Wales, Phillip, the second son
To the most mighty christian king of France,			To the mighty Christian king of France,
Seeing thy body's living date expired,			To see how the life of her body went,
All full of charity and christian love,			Everything full of charity and Christian love,
Commends this book, full fraught with prayers,			Recommends this book, full of prayers,
To thy fair hand and for thy hour of life			To your fair hand and for your life of life
Intreats thee that thou meditate therein,			Speaks to you that you meditate in it

All good that he can send, I can receive;			I can get all the best that he can send;
But thinkst thou not, the unadvised boy			But you don't think the boy who has not been received
Hath wronged himself in thus far tendering me?			Has I excited me so far to appreciate me?
Happily he cannot pray without the book--			Fortunately, without the book, he cannot pray
I think him no divine extemporall--,			I don't think he is a divine Exemporal ,,
Then render back this common place of prayer,			Then to reset this common practice,
To do himself good in adversity;			Do yourself well in adversity;
Beside he knows not my sins' quality,			In addition, he does not know the quality of my sins
And therefore knows no prayers for my avail;			And therefore knows no prayers for my success;
Ere night his prayer may be to pray to God,			Um night his prayer can be praying to God,
To put it in my heart to hear his prayer.			To put it in my heart to hear his prayer.
So tell the courtly wanton, and be gone.			So say the courtly Wanton and be gone.

To die is all as common as to live:			To die everything is as common as to live:
The one ince-wise, the other holds in chase;			The other applies in relation to the chase;
For, from the instant we begin to live,			Because from the moment we start to live
We do pursue and hunt the time to die:			We pursue and chase the time to die:
First bud we, then we blow, and after seed,			First we do, then we blow and after the seed,
Then, presently, we fall; and, as a shade			Then we are currently falling; And as a shadow
Follows the body, so we follow death.			Follow the body, so we follow death.
If, then, we hunt for death, why do we fear it?			If we look for death, why do we fear it?
If we fear it, why do we follow it?			If we fear it, why do we follow it?
If we do fear, how can we shun it?			If we fear, how can we avoid it?
If we do fear, with fear we do but aide			If we are afraid, with fear we do, only with the assistant
The thing we fear to seize on us the sooner:			The thing we fear to grab us even earlier:
If we fear not, then no resolved proffer			If we are not afraid, then no dissolved rehearsal
Can overthrow the limit of our fate;			Can overthrow the limit of our fate;
For, whether ripe or rotten, drop we shall,			Because, whether mature or fist, we will fall,
As we do draw the lottery of our doom.			How we draw the lottery of our doom.

Ah, what an idiot hast thou made of life,			Ah, what kind of idiot you did from life,
To seek the thing it fears! and how disgraced			To find what it fears! And how ashamed
The imperial victory of murdering death,			The imperial victory of death murdered,
Since all the lives his conquering arrows strike			His conquering arrows have been striking since all of life
Seek him, and he not them, to shame his glory!			Look for him and not you to shake his glory!
I will not give a penny for a life,			I will not give a cent for a life
Nor half a halfpenny to shun grim death,			Still half half penny to avoid grim death,
Since for to live is but to seek to die,			It is only to die to live, die
And dying but beginning of new life.			And die, but the beginning of new life.
Let come the hour when he that rules it will!			Let the hour come in which he rules it!
To live or die I hold indifferent.			To live or die, I stop at indifferent.
