That to my foes this body must be prey,

[40] Yet that thy brazen gates of heaven may ope,

And give sweet passage to my sinful soul!

Now, lords, take leave until we meet again,

[♦] Where’er it be, in heaven or in earth.

[♦] Rich. Brother, give me thy hand; and, gentle Warwick,

45 Let me embrace thee in my weary arms:

I, that did never weep, now melt with woe

That winter should cut off our spring-time so.

[♦] War. Away, away! Once more, sweet lords, farewell.
