VERNON.
Sirrah, thy lord I honour as he is.
BASSET.
Why, what is he? As good a man as York.
VERNON.
Hark ye; not so: in witness, take ye that.
[Strikes him.]
BASSET.
Villain, thou knowest the law of arms is such
That whoso draws a sword, ’tis present death,
Or else this blow should broach thy dearest blood.
But I’ll unto his Majesty, and crave
I may have liberty to venge this wrong;
When thou shalt see I’ll meet thee to thy cost.
VERNON.
Well, miscreant, I’ll be there as soon as you;
And, after, meet you sooner than you would.
[Exeunt.]
