Richard III Page #7

(Stanley) He has no friends.

Will not King Richard

let me speak with him?

No, my good lord.

Made I him king for this?

(Buckingham retches and chokes)

Tyrell, why look you so sad?

My heart is ten times lighter

than my looks, my lord.

What is't o'clock?

- Is supper time, your majesty.

- I'll not sup tonight.

Les consult upon tomorrow's business.

- What is the number of the traitors?

- Six or seven thousand, your majesty.

Our battalion trebles that account.

Besides, the king's name...

...is a tower of strength.

Catesby!

Your majesty.

Send to Lord Stanley.

Bid him bring his force...

...Before sunrising,

lest his son George fall...

...lnto the blind cave of eternal night.

Leave me.

I will.

Stir with the lark tomorrow, gentle Tyrell.

Your majesty.

Leave me, I say.

(Archbishop) Oh, Lord...

...let Richmond and Elizabeth...

...by your fair ordinance...

...be joined together.

And let their heirs, God,

if thy will be so...

...Enrich the time to come...

...with smooth-faced peace.

Oh, thou whose captain

I account myself...

...Look on my forces

with a gracious eye...

...Put in their hands

thy bruising arms of wrath...

...That we may praise thee in thy victory.

Sleeping...

...and waking...

...defend me still.

(Duchess of York)

Are you my son? You toad!

(voices whispering)

(Queen Elizabeth)

Richard, you do me shame!

(Duchess of York)

Bloody will be your end!

(Anne) You do infect my eyes!

(Rivers) I have too long borne

your blunt upbraidings!

(James) Because that I am

little, like an ape...

...I think that you should

bear me on your back!

(Queen Elizabeth screams)

Where are my children?

(gasps)

I did but dream.

Oh, coward conscience!

What do I fear?

There's none else by.

Richard loves Richard...

...that is, I am I.

Is there a murderer here?

No!

Yes... I am.

I love myself, but why?

For any good that I myself

have done unto myself?

Oh, no. Alack, I rather hate myself...

...For hateful deeds committed by myself.

I'm a villain.

But I lie, I am not.

Fool, of thyself speak well.

Fool, do not flatter.

My conscience has a thousand

several tongues...

...Thronged to the bar,

crying all, "Guilty! Guilty!"

I shall despair!

There is no creature loves me...

...And if I die...

...no soul will pity me.

Your majesty.

Ratcliffe?

Will all our friends prove true?

- No doubt, your majesty.

- Ratcliffe, I fear... I fear!

Oh, no, your majesty...

...be not afraid of shadows.

(sobs)

How have you slept, my lord?

The sweetest sleep...

...the fairest-boding dreams...

...That ever entered in a drowsy head.

Conscience is but a word

that cowards use.

Remember whom you are to cope with...

...all a sort of vagabonds,

rascals and runaways.

And who does lead 'em

but a paltry fellow, a milksop?

If we be conquered...

...let men conquer us.

Les whip these stragglers

over the seas again!

Shall these enjoy our lambs?

Lie with our wives?

Ravish our daughters?

What says Lord Stanley?

Will he bring his force?

My lord, he has refused to come to you.

(aeroplanes overhead)

Then off with his son George's head.

(air-raid siren)

(soldier screams)

Stanley!

Your majesty! Your majesty!

Go!

A horse!

A horse! My kingdom for a horse!

James Tyrell, rescue!

Escape, your majesty, escape!

I'll help you to a horse!

Escape? Slave!

Stop!

Richard!

Richard!

No... no!

(automatic gunfire)

Les do it pell-mell.

If not to heaven...

...then hand in hand to hell!

(fires twice)
