:40:02
[Door opens]
:40:18
From our brother England?
:40:20
From him, and thus
he greets your majesty.
:40:25
He wills you, in the
name of God almighty,
:40:29
that you divest yourself
and lay apart...
:40:31
the borrowed glories
that by gift of heaven,
:40:35
by law of nature
and of nations,
:40:37
belongs to him
and to his heirs.
:40:40
Namely, the crown.
:40:44
Willing you overlook
this pedigree.
:40:49
And when you find him
evenly derived...
:40:50
from his most famed of famous
ancestors, Edward the III,
:40:55
he bids you then resign your crown
and kingdom, indirectly held from him,
:41:01
the native and true challenger.
:41:04
Or else what follows?
:41:09
Bloody constraint.
:41:11
For if you hide the crown,
even in your hearts,
:41:15
there will he rake for it.
:41:18
Therefore, in fierce
tempest is he coming,
:41:21
in thunder and in earthquake,
like a Jove,
:41:25
that if requiring fail,
he will compel.
:41:30
This is his claim,
his threatening and my message.
:41:36
Unless the Dauphin
be in presence here,
:41:39
to whom expressly
I bring greeting to.
:41:41
For the Dauphin,
:41:45
I stand here for him.
:41:54
What to him from England?
:41:55
Scorn and defiance,
:41:58
slight regard, contempt...
