Enter EARL OF SALISBURY and a Welsh Captain Captain My lord of Salisbury, we have stay'd ten days, And hardly kept our countrymen together, And yet we hear no tidings from the king;
Therefore we will disperse ourselves: farewell. EARL OF SALISBURY Stay yet another day, thou trusty Welshman:
The king reposeth all his confidence in thee. Captain 'Tis thought the king is dead; we will not stay.
The bay-trees in our country are all wither'd And meteors fright the fixed stars of heaven;
The pale-faced moon looks bloody on the earth And lean-look'd prophets whisper fearful change;
Rich men look sad and ruffians dance and leap, The one in fear to lose what they enjoy, The other to enjoy by rage and war:
These signs forerun the death or fall of kings.
Farewell: our countrymen are gone and fled, As well assured Richard their king is dead.
Exit EARL OF SALISBURY Ah, Richard, with the eyes of heavy mind I see thy glory like a shooting star Fall to the base earth from the firmament.
Thy sun sets weeping in the lowly west, Witnessing storms to come, woe and unrest:
Thy friends are fled to wait upon thy foes, And crossly to thy good all fortune goes.
