And where thou art not, desolation.

365 I can no more: live thou to joy thy life;

[♦] Myself no joy in nought but that thou livest.

Enter VAUX.

[♦] Queen. Whither goes Vaux so fast? what news, I prithee?

Vaux. To signify unto his majesty

[♦] That Cardinal Beaufort is at point of death;

370 For suddenly a grievous sickness took him,

That makes him gasp and stare and catch the air,

Blaspheming God and cursing men on earth.
