Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Earl of Warwick

24

And so do I. Victorious Prince of York,
Before I see thee seated in that throne
Which now the house of Lancaster usurps,
I vow by heaven these eyes shall never close.
This is the palace of the fearful king,
And this the regal seat: possess it, York;
For this is thine and not King Henry's heirs'

Then leave me not, my lords; be resolute;
I mean to take possession of my right.

If I be not, heavens be revenged on me!

4

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Lord Clifford

68

Patience is for poltroons, such as he:
He durst not sit there, had your father lived.
My gracious lord, here in the parliament
Let us assail the family of York.

Henry VI

Ah, know you not the city favours them,
And they have troops of soldiers at their beck?

Richard Plantagenet (Duke of Gloucester)

109

Will you we show our title to the crown?
If not, our swords shall plead it in the field.

7

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Earl of Warwick

117

Talk not of France, sith thou hast lost it all.

8

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Henry VI

118

The lord protector lost it, and not I:
When I was crown'd I was but nine months old.

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Marquess of Montague

123

Good brother, as thou lovest and honourest arms,
Let's fight it out and not stand cavilling thus.

[I, 1]

Earl of Warwick

128

Plantagenet shall speak first: hear him, lords;
And be you silent and attentive too,
For he that interrupts him shall not live.

11

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Henry VI

141

[Aside] I know not what to say; my title's weak.—
Tell me, may not a king adopt an heir?

12

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Duke of Exeter

152

No; for he could not so resign his crown
But that the next heir should succeed and reign.

13

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Richard Plantagenet (Duke of Gloucester)

Why whisper you, my lords, and answer not?

14

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Earl of Northumberland

159

Plantagenet, for all the claim thou lay'st,
Think not that Henry shall be so deposed.

15

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Earl of Northumberland

162

Thou art deceived: 'tis not thy southern power,
Of Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk, nor of Kent,
Which makes thee thus presumptuous and proud,
Can set the duke up in despite of me.

16

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Earl of Warwick

Turn this way, Henry, and regard them not.

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Duke of Exeter

They seek revenge and therefore will not yield.

18

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Henry VI

203

Not for myself, Lord Warwick, but my son,
Whom I unnaturally shall disinherit.
But be it as it may: I here entail
The crown to thee and to thine heirs for ever;
Conditionally, that here thou take an oath
To cease this civil war, and, whilst I live,
To honour me as thy king and sovereign,
And neither by treason nor hostility
To seek to put me down and reign thyself.

19

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Queen Margaret

230

Nay, go not from me; I will follow thee.

20

Henry VI, Part III
[I, 1]

Prince Edward

243

Father, you cannot disinherit me:
If you be king, why should not I succeed?
