VERNON

               Deliver what you will, I’ll say ’tis so.
               Here comes your cousin.



              HOTSPUR
                               My uncle is returned.
               Deliver up my Lord of Westmoreland.

               Uncle, what news?



              WORCESTER
               The king will bid you battle presently. [30]



              DOUGLAS
               Defy him by the Lord of Westmoreland.



              HOTSPUR
               Lord Douglas, go you and tell him so.



              DOUGLAS
               Marry, and shall, and very willingly.
                                                                                                             Exit.



              WORCESTER
               There is no seeming mercy in the king.



              HOTSPUR

               Did you beg any? God forbid! [35]


              WORCESTER

               I told him gently of our grievances,
               Of his oath-breaking, which he mended thus,
               By now forswearing that he is forsworn.

               He calls us rebels, traitors, and will scourge
               With haughty arms this hateful name in us. [40]


                                                      Enter Douglas.
