[♦] For shame, my liege, make them your precedent!
Were it not pity that this goodly boy
35 Should lose his birthright by his father’s fault,
And long hereafter say unto his child,
[♦] ‘What my great-grandfather and grandsire got
My careless father fondly gave away’?
[♦] Ah, what a shame were this! Look on the boy;
40 And let his manly face, which promiseth
[♦] Successful fortune, steel thy melting heart
[♦] To hold thine own and leave thine own with him.
