_First Gent._ The same. All these accused him strongly; which he fain Would have flung from him, but indeed he could not: 25 And so his peers upon this evidence Have found him guilty of high treason. Much He spoke, and learnedly, for life, but all Was either pitied in him or forgotten. _Sec. Gent._ After all this, how did he bear himself? 30 _First Gent._ When he was brought again to the bar, to hear His knell rung out, his judgement, he was stirr'd With such an agony, he sweat extremely[253] And something spoke in choler, ill and hasty: But he fell to himself again and sweetly 35 In all the rest show'd a most noble patience. _Sec. Gent._ I do not think he fears death. _First Gent._ Sure, he does not; He never was so womanish; the cause He may a little grieve at. _Sec. Gent._ Certainly The cardinal is the end of this.[254] _First Gent._ 'Tis likely, 40 By all conjectures: first, Kildare's attainder,[255] Then deputy of Ireland; who removed, Earl Surrey was sent thither, and in haste too, Lest he should help his father. _Sec. Gent._ That trick of state Was a deep envious one.[256] _First Gent._ At his return 45 No doubt he will requite it. This is noted, And generally, whoever the king favours, The cardinal instantly will find employment,[257] And far enough from court too. _Sec. Gent._ All the commons Hate him perniciously, and, o' my conscience, 50 Wish him ten fathom deep: this duke as much They love and dote on; call him bounteous Buckingham, The mirror of all courtesy--[258] _First Gent._ Stay there, sir, And see the noble ruin'd man you speak of. _Enter_ BUCKINGHAM _from his arraignment, tipstaves before him, the axe with the edge towards him, halberds on each side, accompanied with_ SIR THOMAS LOVELL, SIR NICHOLAS VAUX, SIR WALTER SANDS, _and common people, &c._[259] _Sec. Gent._ Let's stand close, and behold him.
