Henry VI, Part III by William Shakespeare
Act 4 - Scene 6
London. The Tower.
Lieutenant : Subjects may challenge nothing of their sovereigns;
[p]But if an
humble prayer may prevail,
[p]I then crave pardon of your majesty.
Post : That Edward is escaped from your brother,
[p]And fled, as he hears
since, to Burgundy.
Post : He was convey'd by Richard Duke of Gloucester
[p]And the Lord
Hastings, who attended him
[p]In secret ambush on the forest
side
[p]And from the bishop's huntsmen rescued him;
[p]For hunting was
his daily exercise.
