About This Book

The volume presents a connected sequence of historical dramas that dramatize the disintegration of centralized power and the violent struggle among rival claimants for the crown. Through scenes of political intrigue, popular unrest, pitched battles, and calculated betrayals, it shows how shifting alliances and personal ambition accelerate dynastic collapse and reshape leadership. The plays interweave public spectacle with intimate moments of downfall and remorse, exploring themes of legitimacy, governance, and the human cost of civil war. Scholarly apparatus accompanies the texts, offering prefatory and editorial commentary, variant readings, and notes on publication history.

bec SCENE III. Fields near St Alban’s.

Alarum. Retreat. Enter YORK, RICHARD, WARWICK, and Soldiers, with drum and colours.
♦ York. Of Salisbury, who can report of him,
That winter lion, who in rage forgets
♦ Aged contusions and all brush of time,
♦ And, like a gallant in the brow of youth,
5 Repairs him with occasion? This happy day
Is not itself, nor have we won one foot,
If Salisbury be lost.
Rich.   My noble father,
♦ Three times to-day I holp him to his horse,
Three times bestrid him; thrice I led him off,
10 Persuaded him from any further act:
But still, where danger was, still there I met him;
♦ And like rich hangings in a homely house,
So was his will in his old feeble body.
♦ But, noble as he is, look where he comes.
Enter SALISBURY.
15 Sal. Now, by my sword, well hast thou fought to-day;
♦ By the mass, so did we all. I thank you, Richard:
God knows how long it is I have to live;
And it hath pleased him that three times to-day
♦ You have defended me from imminent death.
20 Well, lords, we have not got that which we have:
’Tis not enough our foes are this time fled,
Being opposites of such repairing nature.
York. I know our safety is to follow them;
For, as I hear, the king is fled to London,
25 To call a present court of parliament.
Let us pursue him ere the writs go forth.
♦ What says Lord Warwick? shall we after them?
War. After them! nay, before them, if we can.
♦ Now, by my faith, lords, ’twas a glorious day:
30 Saint Alban’s battle won by famous York
Shall be eternized in all age to come.
♦ Sound drums and trumpets, and to London all:
♦ And more such days as these to us befall! [Exeunt.
