Clif. Ambitious Yorke, did leuell at thy Crowne,
Clif. Thou smiling, while he knit his angry browes.
Clif. He but a Duke, would haue his Sonne a King,
Clif. And raise his issue like a louing Sire.
Clif. Thou being a King, blest with a goodly sonne,
Clif. Did'st yeeld consent to disinherit him:
Clif. Which argued thee a most vnlouing Father.
Clif. Vnreasonable Creatures feed their young,
Clif. And though mans face be fearefull to their eyes,
Clif. Yet in protection of their tender ones,
Clif. Who hath not seene them euen with those wings,
Clif. Which sometime they haue vs'd with fearfull flight,
Clif. Make warre with him that climb'd vnto their nest,
Clif. Offering their owne liues in their yongs defence?
Clif. For shame, my Liege, make them your President:
Clif. Were it not pitty that this goodly Boy
Clif. Should loose his Birth‑right by his Fathers fault,
Clif. And long heereafter say vnto his childe,
Clif. What my great Grandfather, and Grandsire got,
Clif. My carelesse Father fondly gaue away.
