IV,3,2164

(stage directions). [Enter three Watchmen, to guard KING EDWARD IV's tent]

First Watchman. Come on, my masters, each man take his stand:
The king by this is set him down to sleep.


2

IV,3,2167

Second Watchman. What, will he not to bed?

First Watchman. Why, no; for he hath made a solemn vow
Never to lie and take his natural rest
Till Warwick or himself be quite suppress'd.


3

IV,3,2174

Third Watchman. But say, I pray, what nobleman is that
That with the king here resteth in his tent?

First Watchman. 'Tis the Lord Hastings, the king's chiefest friend.


4

IV,3,2183

Third Watchman. Ay, but give me worship and quietness;
I like it better than a dangerous honour.
If Warwick knew in what estate he stands,
'Tis to be doubted he would waken him.

First Watchman. Unless our halberds did shut up his passage.


5

IV,3,2191

Earl of Warwick. This is his tent; and see where stand his guard.
Courage, my masters! honour now or never!
But follow me, and Edward shall be ours.

First Watchman. Who goes there?
