And foil the malice of the world which laughs

At petty discontents; but I shall care

That not a soul knows of this visit. Speak!

Vic. [Aside.] Here is the grateful much-professing son

Prepared to worship me, for whose sole sake

I think to waive my plans of public good!

[Aloud.] Nay, Charles, if I did seek to take once more

My crown, were so disposed to plague myself,

What would be warrant for this bitterness?

I gave it—grant I would resume it—well?
