Mojo, The Bard, & Me

 

 

Not long before your highness sped to France,

The duke being at the Rose, within the parish

Saint Lawrence Poultney, did of me demand

What was the speech among the Londoners

Concerning the French journey: I replied,

Men fear’d the French would prove perfidious,

To the king’s danger.

 

 -Surveyor

 King Henry the Eighth          Act I, Scene ii, Line 156

 

There’s a pretty long line for you, but only one sentence. We’ve covered this part of this scene before, here, here, and here. So I’m thinking there’s no need to rehash this.

What do you think?
