Enter STANLEY and Sir CHRISTOPHER.
STANLEY
Sir Christopher, tell Richmond this from me: That in the sty of the most deadly boar My son George Stanley is franked up in hold; If I revolt, off goes young George’s head; The fear of that holds off my present aid. So get thee gone. Commend me to thy lord. Withal, say that the queen hath heartily consented He should espouse Elizabeth her daughter. But, tell me, where is princely Richmond now?
STANLEY
Sir Christopher, bring this message to Richmond for me: my son George Stanley is locked up in the deadly boar's pen. If I revolt, off goes young George's head. My fear of that happening prevents me from helping right now. So go quickly, and give my regards to your lord. Also say that Queen Elizabeth has readily agreed that Richmond should marry her daughter Elizabeth. But tell me, where is princely Richmond now?
