Book, page 31 / 75 BEDFORD. Now, sir, what's you will with me? CROMWELL. Intends your honour not to yield your self? BEDFORD. No, good man goose, not while my sword doth last. Is this your eloquence for to persuade me? CROMWELL. My Lord, my eloquence is for to save you. I am not, as you judge, a Neopolitan, But Cromwell, your servant, and an Englishman. BEDFORD. How? Cromwell? not my Farrier's son? CROMWELL. The same, sir, and am come to succour you. HODGE. Yes, faith, sir; and I am Hodge, your poor Smith. Many a time and oft have I shoed your Dapper Gray. BEDFORD. And what avails it me that thou art here? CROMWELL. It may avail, if you'll be ruled by me. My Lord, you know the men of Mantua And these Bononians are at deadly strife, And they, my Lord, both love and honour you. Could you but get out of the Mantua port, Then were you safe despite of all their force. BEDFORD. Tut, man, thou talkest of things impossible. Dost thou not see that we are round beset? How, then, is it possible we should escape?
