But to be commanded
               For ever by your grace, whose hand has raised me.



              KING
               Come hither, Gardiner.
                                                                                        Walks and whispers



              CAMPEIUS
               My lord of York, was not one Doctor Pace [120]

               In this man’s place before him?



              WOLSEY
                               Yes, he was.



              CAMPEIUS
               Was he not held a learnèd man?



              WOLSEY
                               Yes, surely.



              CAMPEIUS
               Believe me, there’s an ill opinion spread then,
               Even of yourself, lord Cardinal.



              WOLSEY

                               How? Of me?


              CAMPEIUS

               They will not stick to say you envied him, [125]
               And fearing he would rise, he was so virtuous,
               Kept him a foreign man still, which so grieved him
               That he ran mad and died.



              WOLSEY
                               Heaven’s peace be with him:

               That’s Christian care enough; for living murmurers
               There’s places of rebuke. He was a fool, [130]
