My sleep my death? 60
Find him, my Lord of Warwick; chide him hither.
{Exit Warwick.}
This part of his conjoins with my disease,
And helps to end me. See, sons, what things you are !
How quickly nature falls into revolt 64
When gold becomes her object!
For this the foolish over-careful fathers
Have broke their sleep with thoughts,
Their brains with care, their bones with industry; 68

The canker' d heaps of strange-achieved gold;
For this they have been thoughtful to invest
Their sons with arts and martial exercises: 72
When, like the bee, culling from every flower
The virtuous sweets,
Our thighs packed with wax, our mouths with honeya
We bring it to the hive, and like the bees, 76
Are murder'd for our pains. This bitter taste
Yield his engrossments to .the ending father.

Till his friend sickness hath determin'd me? 80

room,
Washing with kindly tears his gentle cheeks,
With such a deep demeanour in great sorrow
That tyranny, which never quaff' d but blood, 84
Would, by beholding him, have wash'd his knife
With gentle eye-drops. He is coming hither.
