Edward III
Act IV, Scene 8
Poitou. Fields near Poitiers. Another part of the field of battle.
-
Enter Audley, wounded, and rescued by two English Esquires.
First English Esquire
1
-
How fares my lord?
Audley
2 - 3
-
Even as a man may do,
-
That dines at such a bloody feast as this.
Second English Esquire
4
-
I hope, my lord, that is no mortal scar.
Audley
5 - 11
-
No matter, if it be; the count is cast,
-
And, in the worst, ends but a mortal man.
-
Good friends, convey me to the princely Edward,
-
That in the crimson bravery of my blood
-
I may become him with saluting him.
-
I’ll smile, and tell him, that this open scar
-
Doth end the harvest of his Audley’s war.
