Speeches (Lines) for Lord Hastings
in "Henry IV, Part II"
Total: 17

1

I,3,614

Our present musters grow upon the file
To five and twenty thousand men of choice;
And our supplies live largely in the hope
Of great Northumberland, whose bosom burns
With an incensed fire of injuries.

2

I,3,622

With him, we may.

3

I,3,639

But, by your leave, it never yet did hurt
To lay down likelihoods and forms of hope.

4

I,3,668

Grant that our hopes—yet likely of fair birth—
Should be still-born, and that we now possess'd
The utmost man of expectation,
I think we are so a body strong enough,
Even as we are, to equal with the King.

5

I,3,674

To us no more; nay, not so much, Lord Bardolph;
For his divisions, as the times do brawl,
Are in three heads: one power against the French,
And one against Glendower; perforce a third
Must take up us. So is the unfirm King
In three divided; and his coffers sound
With hollow poverty and emptiness.

6

I,3,684

If he should do so,
He leaves his back unarm'd, the French and Welsh
Baying at his heels. Never fear that.

7

I,3,688

The Duke of Lancaster and Westmoreland;
Against the Welsh, himself and Harry Monmouth;
But who is substituted against the French
I have no certain notice.

8

I,3,717

We are time's subjects, and time bids be gone.

9

IV,1,2202

'Tis Gaultree Forest, an't shall please your Grace.

10

IV,1,2205

We have sent forth already.

11

IV,1,2221

Now, what news?

12

IV,1,2368

Hath the Prince John a full commission,
In very ample virtue of his father,
To hear and absolutely to determine
Of what conditions we shall stand upon?

13

IV,1,2392

Fear you not that: if we can make our peace
Upon such large terms and so absolute
As our conditions shall consist upon,
Our peace shall stand as firm as rocky mountains.

14

IV,1,2422

Besides, the King hath wasted all his rods
On late offenders, that he now doth lack
The very instruments of chastisement;
So that his power, like to a fangless lion,
May offer, but not hold.

15

IV,2,2487

And though we here fall down,
We have supplies to second our attempt.
If they miscarry, theirs shall second them;
And so success of mischief shall be born,
And heir from heir shall hold this quarrel up
Whiles England shall have generation.

16

IV,2,2512

Go, Captain, and deliver to the army
This news of peace. Let them have pay, and part.
I know it will please them. Hie thee, Captain.

17

IV,2,2555

My lord, our army is dispers'd already.
Like youthful steers unyok'd, they take their courses
East, west, north, south; or like a school broke up,
Each hurries toward his home and sporting-place.
