Lan. I give it you, and will maintain my word:[4081]
And thereupon I drink unto your grace.[4083]
Hast. Go, captain, and deliver to the army[4084]
This news of peace: let them have pay, and part:70
I know it will well please them. Hie thee, captain.
[Exit Officer.[4085]
Arch. To you, my noble Lord of Westmoreland.[4086]
West. I pledge your grace; and, if you knew what pains[4087]
I have bestow'd to breed this present peace,[4087]
You would drink freely: but my love to ye[4088]75
Shall show itself more openly hereafter.
Arch. I do not doubt you.
West. I am glad of it.
Health to my lord and gentle cousin, Mowbray.
Mowb. You wish me health in very happy season;
For I am, on the sudden, something ill.80
Arch. Against ill chances men are ever merry;
But heaviness foreruns the good event.
West. Therefore be merry, coz; since sudden sorrow
Serves to say thus, 'some good thing comes to-morrow.'[4089]
