To know what willing ransom he will give.
Prince Dauphin, you shall stay with us in Rouen.

DAUPHIN
Not so, I do beseech your majesty. [65]

Scene VI IT

Enter the Captains, English and Welsh, Gower and Fluellen.

GOWER

How now, Captain Fluellen! come you from the bridge?

FLUELLEN

By Jesus, there is very excellent services committed at the bridge.

GOWER
Is the Duke of Exeter safe? [5]

FLUELLEN
The Duke of Exeter is as magnanimous as Agamemnon; and a man that I
love and honour with my soul, and my heart, and my duty, and my life, and

my living, and my uttermost power. He is not, − God be praised and blessed!
− any hurt in the world, but keeps [10] the bridge most valiantly, with
excellent discipline. There is an aunchient lieutenant there at the pridge, I
think [by Jesus] in my very conscience he is as valiant a man as Mark Antony;
and he is a man of no estimation in the world; but I did see him do as gallant

service. [15]
