CHORUS
,
, 2 ,
, ,
Vouchsafe | to those | that have not | read the |
story,
,
, ,
, ,
That I | may prompt | them: and | of such | as
have,
, ,
, ,
2 ,
I hum|bly pray | them to | admit | the excuse
,
, , ,
,
Of time,| of num|bers, and / due course | of
things,
,
, , ,
,
Which can|not in | their huge | and prop|er life,
, ,
, ,
,
Be here | present|ed. Now | we bear | the king
, ,
, ___ __
Toward Cal|ais: grant | him there;| there | seen,
,
, , , ,
Heave him | away | upon | your wing|ed thoughts,
, ,
, ,
,
Athwart | the sea:| Behold | the Eng|lish beach
,
, , ,
,
Pales in | the flood;| with men,| wives, and |
boys,
<- ,
, ,
T T T
Whose || shouts and | claps out^|voice the |
deep-mouthed sea,
T T . T , ,
,
Which like a migh|ty whif|fler 'fore | the king,
,
, ,
, ,
Seems to | prepare | his way:| so let | him land,
, 2
, ,
, ,
And sol|emnly see | him set | on to | London.
,
, , ,
,
So swift | a pace | hath thought,| that ev|en now
, 2 ,
, T T T
You may i|magine | him u|pon Blackheath:
,
, ,
, ,
Where that | his lords | desire | him, to | have
borne
,
, ,
, ,
His bruis|ed hel|met, and | his bend|ed sword
, , ,
, x
Before | him through | the ci|ty: he | forbids
it,
2 ,
, , ,
2 ,
Being free | from vain|ness, and / self-glor|ious
pride;
,
, , , ,
Giving | full* troph|y, sig|nal, and / ostent,
??
,
, , ,
,
Quite from | himself,| to God.| But now | behold,
, ,
, ,
,
In the / quick forge | and work|ing-house | of
thought,
,
, ,
, ,
How Lon|don doth | pour^out | her cit|izens,
, 2 , , ,
,
The may|or and all | his breth|ren in / best
sort,
, 2
, , 2 T T
T
Like to the | sena|tors of the | antique Rome,
,
, ,
, ,
With the | plebei|ans swarm|ing at | their heels,
, ,
, 2 ,
,
Go forth | and fetch | their con|quering Cae|sar
in:
, 2 ,
2 , ,
,
As by a | lower,| but by lov|ing like|lihood,
, , ,
, ,
->
Were now | the gene|ral of | our gra|cious
em||press,
, 2
, , ,
, ->
As | in good time | he may,| from Ire|land
com||ing,
, 2 ,
, ,
,
Bring|ing rebel|lion broach|ed on | his sword,
, ,
, ,
,
How ma|ny would | the peace|ful ci|ty quit,
,
, , . T
T T
To wel|come him?| Much^more,| and much more
cause,
, ,
, , x
Did they | this Har|ry. Now | in Lon|don place him.
,
, , ,
,
As yet | the lam|enta|tion of | the French
, ,
, , ,
Invites | the King | of Eng|land's stay | at
home:
, 2 ,
, ,
,
The emp|eror's com|ing in | behalf | of France,
,
, ,
, ,
To ord|er peace | between | them: and | omit
,
, ,
, ,
All the | occur|rences,| whatev|er chanced,
,
, ,
, ,
Till Har|ry's back | return | again | to France:
, ,
, ,
,
There must | we bring | him: and | myself | have
played
, ,
2 , 2 ,
,
The in|terim,| by remem|bering you |'tis past.
,
, , ,
,
Then brook | abridg|ment, and | your eyes |
advance,
, 2 T
T T ,
,
After your | thoughts, straight back | again | to
France.
