[♦] Told me, the king, provoked by the queen,

Devised impeachments to imprison him:

[♦] And when my uncle told me so, he wept,

[♦] And hugg’d me in his arm, and kindly kiss’d my cheek;

[25] Bade me rely on him as on my father,

[♦] And he would love me dearly as his child.

[♦] And with a virtuous vizard hide foul guile!

[♦] He is my son; yea, and therein my shame;

30 Yet from my dugs he drew not this deceit.
