King John

Book Excerpt: ... Heaven guard my mother's honour and my land!KING JOHN. A good blunt fellow.--Why, being younger born, Doth he lay claim to thine inheritance?BASTARD. I know not why, except to get the land. But once he slander'd me with bastardy: But whe'er I be as true begot or no, That still I lay upon my mother's head; But that I am as well begot, my liege, -- Fair fall the bones that took the pains for me!-- Compare our faces and be judge yourself. If old Sir Robert did beget us both, And were our father, and this son like him, -- O old Sir Robert, father, on my knee I give heaven thanks I was not like to thee!KING JOHN. Why, what a madcap hath heaven lent us here!ELINOR. He hath a trick of Coeur-de-lion's face; The accent of his tongue affecteth him: Do you not read some tokens of my son In the large composition of this man?KING JOHN. Mine eye hath well examined his parts, And finds them perfect Richard.--Sirrah, speak, What doth move you to claim your brother's land?
