SCENE EIGHT King:What men haue you lost, Fluellen? Fluellen: The perdition of th'athuersarie hath beene very / great, reasonnable great: marry for my part, I thinke the / Duke hath lost neuer a man, but one that is like to be executed / for robbing a Church, one Bardolph,


if your Maiestie / know the man: his face is all bubukles and whelkes, / and knobs, and flames a fire, and his lippes blowes at his / nose, and it is like a coale of fire, sometimes plew, and / sometimes red, but his nose is executed, and his fire's / out.


King: Wee would haue all such offendors so cut off: / and we giue expresse charge, that in our Marches through / the Countrey, there be nothing compell'd from the Villages; / nothing taken, but pay'd for: none of the French / vpbrayded or abused in disdainefull Language; for when / Leuitie and Crueltie play for a Kingdome, the gentler / Gamester is the soonest winner.




Mountioy: Thus sayes my King: Say thou to Harry / of England,


Though we seem'd dead, we did but sleepe: Bid him therefore consider / of his ransome, which must proportion the losses we / haue borne?To this adde defiance: and tell him for / conclusion, he hath betrayed his followers, whose condemnation / is pronounc't: So farre my King and Master; / so much my Office.


King: Thou doo'st thy Office fairely. Turne thee back, The summe of all our Answer is but this: We would not seeke a Battaile as we are, Nor as we are, we say we will not shun it: So tell your Master.
