ACT I IT

Scene I IT

Enter the Duke of Norfolk at one door; at the other, the Duke of
Buckingham and the Lord Abergavenny

BUCKINGHAM
Good morrow, and well met. How have ye done
Since last we saw in France?

NORFOLK
I thank your grace,

Healthful, and ever since a fresh admirer
Of what I saw there.

BUCKINGHAM
An untimely ague
Stayed me a prisoner in my chamber when [5]
Those suns of glory, those two lights of men,

Met in the vale of Andren.

NORFOLK
’Twixt Guynes and Arde,
I was then present, saw them salute on horseback,
Beheld them when they lighted, how they clung

In their embracement, as they grew together; [10]
Which had they, what four throned ones could have weighed
Such a compounded one?

BUCKINGHAM
All the whole time
I was my chamber’s prisoner.
