Ch. 304: SCENE IV. Another Part of the Field

SCENE IV. Another Part of the Field****

Excursions. Enter Richard and Clifford.

RICHARD.

Now, Clifford, I have singled thee alone.

Suppose this arm is for the Duke of York,

And this for Rutland; both bound to revenge,

Wert thou environed with a brazen wall.

CLIFFORD.

Now, Richard, I am with thee here alone.

This is the hand that stabbed thy father York,

And this the hand that slew thy brother Rutland;

And here’s the heart that triumphs in their death

And cheers these hands that slew thy sire and brother

To execute the like upon thyself;

And so have at thee!

They fight. Warwick comes; Clifford flies.

RICHARD.

Nay, Warwick, single out some other chase;

For I myself will hunt this wolf to death.

[_Exeunt. _]
