A nest of hollow bosoms, which he fills[1]

With treacherous crowns; and three corrupted men,—

One, Richard earl of Cambridge;[2] and the second,

Henry lord Scroop of Masham,[3] and the third,

Sir Thomas Grey, knight, of Northumberland,—

Have, for the gilt of France[4] (O guilt, indeed!),

Confirm’d conspiracy with fearful France;([AA])

And by their hands this grace of kings[5] must die,

(If hell and treason hold their promises,)

Ere he take ship for France, and in Southampton.
