PERCY.
There stands the castle by yon tuft of trees,
Manned with three hundred men, as I have heard.
And in it are the Lords of York, Berkeley, and Seymour,
None else of name and noble estimate.
Enter Ross and Willoughby.
NORTHUMBERLAND.
Here come the Lords of Ross and Willoughby,
Bloody with spurring, fiery-red with haste.
BOLINGBROKE.
Welcome, my lords. I wot your love pursues
A banished traitor. All my treasury
Is yet but unfelt thanks, which, more enriched,
Shall be your love and labour’s recompense.
ROSS.
Your presence makes us rich, most noble lord.
WILLOUGHBY.
And far surmounts our labour to attain it.
BOLINGBROKE.
Evermore thanks, the exchequer of the poor;
Which, till my infant fortune comes to years,
Stands for my bounty. But who comes here?
Enter Berkeley.
NORTHUMBERLAND.
It is my Lord of Berkeley, as I guess.
BERKELEY.
My Lord of Hereford, my message is to you.
