SCENE XXIII.
_Edward._ _Clarence_ and _Gloster_, loue my louelie Queene, [eaw026] And kisse your princelie nephew brothers both. [eaw027] _Cla._ The dutie that _I_ owe vnto your, Maiestie, [eaw028] I seale vpon the rosiate lips of this sweet babe. _Queen._ Thankes noble Clarence worthie brother thankes. ·eaw030· _Gloster._ And that I loue the fruit from whence thou [eaw031] Sprangst, witnesse the louing kisse I giue the child. To saie the truth so _Iudas_ kist his maister, And so he cride all haile, and meant all harme. _Edward._ Nowe am _I_ seated as my soule delights, ·eaw035· Hauing my countries peace, and brothers loues. [eaw036] _Cla._ What will your grace haue done with _Margaret_, [eaw037] _Ranard_ her father to the king of _France_, [eaw038] Hath pawnd the _Cyssels_ and _Ierusalem_, [eaw039] And hither haue they sent it for her ransome. [eaw040] _Edw._ Awaie with her, and wafte hir hence to _France_, And now what rests but that we spend the time, With stately Triumphs and mirthfull comicke shewes, Such as befits the pleasures of the Court. Sound drums and Trumpets, farewell to sower annoy, ·eaw045· For heere _I_ hope begins our lasting ioie. _Exeunt Omnes._
