Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Richard Plantagenet (Duke of Gloucester)

31

Assist me, then, sweet Warwick, and I will;
For hither we have broken in by force.

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 2]

King Edward IV (Plantagenet)

But for a kingdom any oath may be broken:
I would break a thousand oaths to reign one year.

3

Henry VI, Part III
[IV, 4]

Queen Elizabeth

2268

I am inform'd that he comes towards London,
To set the crown once more on Henry's head:
Guess thou the rest; King Edward's friends must down,
But, to prevent the tyrant's violence,—
For trust not him that hath once broken faith,—
I'll hence forthwith unto the sanctuary,
To save at least the heir of Edward's right:
There shall I rest secure from force and fraud.
Come, therefore, let us fly while we may fly:
If Warwick take us we are sure to die.
