  continual strife? Whereas the contrary bringeth bliss; And is a pattern of
  celestial   peace。   Whom   should   we   match   with   Henry;   being   a   king;   But
  Margaret; that is daughter to a king? Her peerless feature; joined with her
  birth; Approves her   fit  for   none   but   for   a   king;   Her   valiant   courage   and
  undaunted spirit; More than in women commonly is seen; Will answer our
  hope in issue of a king; For Henry; son unto a conqueror; Is likely to beget
  more conquerors; If with a lady of so high resolve As is fair Margaret he
  be link'd in love。 Then yield; my lords; and here conclude with me That
  Margaret shall be Queen; and none but she。 KING HENRY。 Whether it be
  through   force   of   your   report;   My  noble   Lord   of   Suffolk;   or   for  that   My
  tender youth was never yet attaint With any passion of inflaming love; I
  cannot tell; but this I am assur'd; I feel such sharp dissension in my breast;
  Such fierce alarums both of hope and fear; As I am sick with working of
  my thoughts。 Take therefore shipping; post; my lord; to France; Agree to
  any covenants; and procure That Lady Margaret do vouchsafe to come To
  cross    the  seas   to  England;     and   be  crown'd     King    Henry's    faithful  and
  anointed     queen。    For   your   expenses     and   sufficient    charge;   Among      the
  people   gather   up   a   tenth。   Be   gone;   I   say;   for   till   you   do   return   I   rest
  perplexed with a thousand cares。 And you; good uncle; banish all offence:
  If you do censure me by what you were; Not what you are; I know it will
  excuse This sudden execution of my will。 And so conduct me where; from
  company; I may revolve and ruminate my grief。 Exit GLOUCESTER。 Ay;
  grief;    I  fear  me;   both    at  first  and   last。  Exeunt    GLOUCESTER            and
  EXETER  SUFFOLK。  Thus   Suffolk hath   prevail'd;   and   thus   he   goes; As
  did the youthful Paris once to Greece; With hope to find the like event in
  love But prosper better than the Troyan did。 Margaret shall now be Queen;
