KING RICHARD THE THIRD

Act 5 Scene 4

(Enter at another door Henry Earl of Richmond, Sir James Blunt, Sir William Brandon, the Earl of Oxford, Marquis Dorset, and others)
l1l	Henry Earl Of Richmond	 The weary sun hath made a golden set,
l2l		And by the bright track of his fiery car
l3l		Gives token of a goodly day tomorrow.
l4l		Sir William Brandon, you shall bear my standard.
l5l		The Earl of Pembroke keeps his regiment#
l6l		Good Captain Blunt, bear my good night to him,
l7l		And by the second hour in the morning
l8l		Desire the Earl to see me in my tent.
l9l		Yet one thing more, good Captain, do for me:
l10l		Where is Lord Stanley quartered, do you know?
l11l	Blunt	Unless I have mista’en his colours much,
l12l		Which well I am assured I have not done,
l13l		His regiment lies half a mile, at least,
l14l		South from the mighty power of the King.
l15l	Henry Earl Of Richmond	If without peril it be possible,
l16l		Sweet Blunt, make some good means to speak with him,
l17l		And give him from me this most needful note.
l18l	Blunt	Upon my life, my lord, I’ll undertake it.
l19l		And so God give you quiet rest tonight.
l20l	Henry Earl Of Richmond	Good night, good Captain Blunt.
		(Exit Blunt)
		 Come, gentlemen.
l21l		Give me some ink and paper in my tent.
l22l		I’ll draw the form and model of our battle,
l23l		Limit each leader to his several charge,
l24l		And part in just proportion our small power.
l25l		Let us consult upon tomorrow’s business.
l26l		Into my tent: the dew is raw and cold.
		(They withdraw into the tent)
