Alarum. Scene V. Another part of the field. Enter Richard and Richmond; they fight. Richard is slain. Retreat and flourish. Re-enter Richmond, Derby bearing the crown, with divers other Lords. Richm. God and your arms be praised, victorious friends! The day is ours; the bloody dog is dead. Der. Courageous Richmond, well hast thou acquit thee. From the dead temples of this bloody wretch But, tell me, is young George Stanley living? Whither, if it please you, we may now withdraw us. Richm. What men of name are slain on either side? Der. John Duke of Norfolk, Walter Lord Ferrers, Sir Robert Brakenbury, and Sir William Brandon. Richm. Inter their bodies as becomes their births: Proclaim a pardon to the soldiers fled, That in submission will return to us: And then, as we have ta'en the sacrament, We will unite the white rose and the red. Smile heaven upon this fair conjunction, That long have frown'd upon their enmity! What traitor hears me, and says not amen? England hath long been mad, and scarr'd herself; The brother blindly shed the brother's blood, The father rashly slaughter'd his own son, ΙΟ 20 The son, compell'd, been butcher to the sire: O, now let Richmond and Elizabeth, 30 Enrich the time to come with smooth-faced peace, With smiling plenty and fair prosperous days! And make poor England weep in streams of blood! Let them not live to taste this land's increase, That would with treason wound this fair land's peace! Now civil wounds are stopp'd, peace lives again: 40 That she may long live here, God say amen! [Exeunt. Traitors' Gate. From Visscher's View of London, C. 1620. Acquit, acquitted; V. v. 3.
