But, sir, you see—see all I say is true?

My plan was sure to prosper, so, no cause

To ask the Parliament for help; whereas

We need them frightfully.

Cha. Need the Parliament?

Straf. Now, for God's sake, sir, not one error more!

We can afford no error; we draw, now,

Upon our last resource: the Parliament

Must help us!

Cha. I 've undone you, Strafford!
