Is posted as the agent of our Cardinal
               To second all his plot. I do assure you [60]
               The King cried “Ha!” at this.



              CHAMBERLAIN
                               Now God incense him,
               And let him cry “Ha!” louder!




              NORFOLK
                               But, my lord,
               When returns Cranmer?



              SUFFOLK
               He is returned in his opinions, which
               Have satisfied the King for his divorce, [65]

               Together with all famous colleges
               Almost in Christendom. Shortly, I believe,
               His second marriage shall be published, and
               Her coronation. Katherine no more
               Shall be called Queen, but Princess Dowager, [70]

               And widow to Prince Arthur.



              NORFOLK
                               This same Cranmer’s
               A worthy fellow, and hath ta’en much pain
               In the King’s business.



              SUFFOLK

                               He has, and we shall see him
               For it an archbishop.



              NORFOLK
                               So I hear.



              SUFFOLK
                               ’Tis so.
