Ourself, by monthly course, with
reservation of an hundred knights,

:15:07
shall our abode make with you
by due turns.

:15:09
We still retain the name, and all
the additions to a king,

:15:13
the sway, revenue, execution
of the rest be yours.

:15:15
Royal Lear, whom I have ever honoured
as my king,

:15:19
as my great patron thought on
in my prayers...

:15:21
The bow is bent and drawn!
:15:22
Make from the shaft!
:15:24
Let it fall rather, though the fork
invade the region of my heart.

:15:29
Be Kent unmannerly,

:15:53
My life I never held but as a pawn

:15:58
- Out of my sight!
- See better, Lear.

:16:01
Now, by Apollo!
:16:04
Now, by Apollo, king,
thou swear'st thy gods in vain.

:16:07
O, vassal! Miscreant!
:16:12
Dear sir, forbear.
:16:14
Hear me, recreant!
On thine allegiance, hear me!

:16:21
If tomorrow thy banished trunk
be found in our dominions,

:16:26
the moment is thy death!
:16:28
Fare thee well, king!
:16:31
Sith thus thou wilt appear,
:16:33

and banishment is here.

:16:50
Here's France and Burgundy,
my noble lord.

:16:57
My Lord of Burgundy,
we first address towards you,
