  And all the troops of English after him。
  French march。 Enter the DUKE OF BURGUNDY and his forces
  Now   in   the   rearward   comes   the   Duke   and   his。   Fortune   in   favour
  makes      him    lag  behind。     Summon       a  parley;    we   will   talk   with   him。
  'Trumpets       sound    a   parley'   CHARLES。         A   parley    with   the   Duke    of
  Burgundy!       BURGUNDY。           Who     craves    a  parley    with   the   Burgundy?
  PUCELLE。           The     princely     Charles      of    France;     thy    countryman。

  King Henry VI; Part 1
  BURGUNDY。            What     say'st   thou;   Charles?     for   I  am    marching     hence。
  CHARLES。 Speak; Pucelle; and enchant him with thy words。 PUCELLE。
  Brave      Burgundy;      undoubted       hope    of   France!     Stay;    let  thy   humble
  handmaid speak to thee。 BURGUNDY。 Speak on; but be not over…tedious。
  PUCELLE。 Look on thy country; look on fertile France; And see the cities
  and   the   towns   defac'd   By   wasting   ruin   of   the   cruel   foe;   As   looks   the
  mother on her lowly babe When death doth close his tender dying eyes;
  See;    see   the   pining   malady      of  France;    Behold     the   wounds;     the   most
  unnatural   wounds;   Which   thou   thyself   hast   given   her   woeful   breast。   O;
  turn   thy   edged   sword   another   way;   Strike   those   that   hurt;   and   hurt   not
  those    that   help!   One    drop    of  blood    drawn    from    thy   country's    bosom
  Should      grieve    thee   more     than   streams     of  foreign     gore。   Return     thee
  therefore with a flood of tears; And wash away thy country's stained spots。
  BURGUNDY。   Either   she   hath   bewitch'd   me   with   her   words;   Or   nature
  makes   me   suddenly   relent。   PUCELLE。   Besides;   all   French   and   France
  exclaims on thee; Doubting thy birth and lawful progeny。 Who join'st thou
  with but with a lordly nation That will not trust thee but for profit's sake?
  When   Talbot   hath   set   footing   once   in   France;   And   fashion'd   thee   that
  instrument of ill; Who then but English Henry will be lord; And thou be
  thrust   out   like   a   fugitive?   Call   we  to   mind…and   mark   but   this   for   proof:
  Was not the Duke of Orleans thy foe? And was he not in England prisoner?
  But when they heard he was thine enemy They set him free without his
  ransom   paid;   In   spite   of   Burgundy   and   all   his   friends。   See   then;   thou
  fight'st    against    thy   countrymen;       And     join'st  with    them     will   be   thy
  slaughtermen。  Come;  come;   return;   return; thou   wandering   lord;   Charles
  and the rest will take thee in their arms。 BURGUNDY。 I am vanquished;
  these   haughty   words   of   hers   Have   batt'red   me   like   roaring   cannon…shot
  And   made   me   almost   yield   upon   my   knees。   Forgive   me;   country;   and
  sweet countrymen And; lords; accept this hearty kind embrace。 My forces
  and my power of men are yours; So; farewell; Talbot; I'll no longer trust
  thee。   PUCELLE。   Done   like   a   Frenchman…   'Aside'   turn   and   turn   again。
  CHARLES。          Welcome;       brave    Duke!     Thy     friendship     makes     us   fresh。
  BASTARD。   And   doth   beget   new   courage   in   our   breasts。   ALENCON。
  Pucelle hath bravely play'd her part in this; And doth deserve a coronet of
  48

  gold。 CHARLES。 Now let us on; my lords; and join our powers; And seek
  how we may prejudice the foe。 Exeunt

  Enter     the    KING;       GLOUCESTER;             WINCHESTER;            YORK;
  SUFFOLK;   SOMERSET;   WARWICK;                     EXETER;   VERNON;   BASSET;
  and others。 To them; with his soldiers; TALBOT
  TALBOT。   My   gracious   Prince;         and   honourable   peers;   Hearing      of
  your arrival in this realm; I have awhile given truce unto my wars To do
  my duty to my sovereign; In sign whereof; this arm that hath reclaim'd To
  your obedience fifty fortresses; Twelve cities; and seven walled towns of
  strength;   Beside   five   hundred   prisoners   of   esteem;   Lets   fall   his   sword
  before your Highness' feet; And with submissive loyalty of heart Ascribes
  the glory of his conquest got First to my God and next unto your Grace。
  'Kneels'   KING   HENRY。   Is   this   the   Lord Talbot;   uncle   Gloucester;   That
  hath   so   long   been   resident   in   France?   GLOUCESTER。  Yes;   if   it   please
  your    Majesty;    my    liege。  KING     HENRY。       Welcome;     brave    captain   and
  victorious lord! When I   was young;   as   yet I   am not   old; I   do   remember
  how my father said A stouter champion never handled sword。 Long since
  we were resolved of your truth; Your faithful service; and your toil in war;
  Yet never have you tasted our reward; Or been reguerdon'd with so much
  as thanks; Because till now we never saw your face。 Therefore stand up;
  and for these good deserts We here create you Earl of Shrewsbury; And in
  our coronation take your place。 Sennet。 Flourish。 Exeunt all but VERNON
  and    BASSET       VERNON。        Now;     sir;  to  you;  that   were   so   hot  at  sea;
  Disgracing   of   these   colours   that   I   wear   In   honour   of   my   noble   Lord   of
  York Dar'st thou maintain the former words thou spak'st? BASSET。 Yes;
  sir;   as   well   as   you   dare   patronage   The   envious   barking   of   your   saucy
  tongue Against my lord the Duke of Somerset。 VERNON。 Sirrah; thy lord
  I   honour   as   he   is。   BASSET。  Why;   what   is   he? As   good   a   man   as York!
  VERNON。         Hark    ye:   not   so。  In  witness;    take   ye   that。  'Strikes   him'
  BASSET。 Villain; thou knowest the law of arms is such That whoso draws
  a   sword   'tis   present   death;   Or   else   this   blow   should   broach   thy   dearest
  blood。 But I'll unto his Majesty and crave I may have liberty to venge this
  wrong;   When   thou   shalt   see   I'll   meet   thee   to   thy   cost。  VERNON。   Well;
