:43:06
Sir, you have showed to-day
your valiant strain,

:43:11
and fortune led you well.
:43:12
You have the captives;
I do require them of you.

:43:15
The question of
Cordelia and her father
requires a fitter place.

:43:20
Sir, by your patience,
:43:22
I hold you
but a subject in this war,

:43:25
not as a brother.
:43:28
That's as we list to grace him.
:43:33
Methinks our pleasure
might have been demanded
ere you had spoke so far.

:43:37
He led our powers.
:43:38
In his own grace
he doth exalt himself,
more than in your addition.

:43:43
In my rights,
by me invested,
he compeers the best.

:43:49
That were the most,
if he should husband you.

:43:53
Jesters do oft
prove prophets.

:44:26
Ask him his purposes.
:44:29
What are you?
:44:32
Your name, your quality?
:44:35
I am as noble as the adversary
I come to cope.

:44:38
Which is
that adversary?

:44:41
He that speaks for Edmund,
Earl of Gloucester.

:44:54
In wisdom
I should ask your name.
