Man. I say this is thy hope. The king being dead,
Such offices as hold under the crown
Need confirmation. Now I do not say
Allegiance lapses; but, if I be quick
To guess the new king’s will, that he will change
Our viceroy—which I doubt not,—I may be bold
Now to withhold my duties from a servant
Discredited, contending that they hang
Upon my judgment, for my deeds to give
After-account. See, ’tis a subtle point
