_K. Rich._ Alack, why am I sent for to a king,[1618][1626] Before I have shook off the regal thoughts[1618] Wherewith I reign'd? I hardly yet have learn'd[1618] To insinuate, flatter, bow, and bend my limbs:[1618][1627] 165 Give sorrow leave awhile to tutor me[1618][1628][1629] To this submission. Yet I well remember[1618][1628][1630] The favours of these men: were they not mine?[1618][1628] Did they not sometime cry, 'all hail!' to me?[1618][1628][1631] So Judas did to Christ: but he, in twelve,[1618][1628] 170 Found truth in all but one; I, in twelve thousand, none.[1618] God save the king! Will no man say amen?[1618][1632] Am I both priest and clerk? well then, amen.[1618][1632] God save the king! although I be not he;[1618][1632] And yet, amen, if heaven do think him me.[1618][1632] 175 To do what service am I sent for hither?[1618] _York._ To do that office of thine own good will[1618] Which tired majesty did make thee offer,[1618] The resignation of thy state and crown[1618] To Henry Bolingbroke.[1618][1633] 180 _K. Rich._ Give me the crown. Here, cousin, seize the crown;[1618][1634] Here cousin;[1618][1635][1636] On this side my hand, and on that side yours.[1618][1635][1637] Now is this golden crown like a deep well[1618][1638] That owes two buckets, filling one another,[1618][1638] 185 The emptier ever dancing in the air,[1618][1638] The other down, unseen and full of water:[1618][1638] That bucket down and full of tears am I,[1618][1638] Drinking my griefs, whilst you mount up on high.[1618][1638][1639] _Boling._ I thought you had been willing to resign.[1618][1638] 190 _K. Rich._ My crown I am; but still my griefs are mine:[1618][1638] You may my glories and my state depose,[1618][1638] But not my griefs; still am I king of those.[1618][1638] _Boling._ Part of your cares you give me with your crown.[1618][1638] _K. Rich._ Your cares set up do not pluck my cares down.[1618][1638] 195 My care is loss of care, by old care done;[1618][1638] Your care is gain of care, by new care won:[1618][1638] The cares I give, I have, though given away;[1618][1638] They tend the crown, yet still with me they stay.[1618][1638][1640] _Boling._ Are you contented to resign the crown?[1618][1638] 200
