<H3>SCENE II. France. Plains in Anjou.</h3>

<p><blockquote>
<i>Enter CHARLES, BURGUNDY, ALENCON, BASTARD OF ORLEANS, REIGNIER, JOAN LA PUCELLE, and forces</i>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech1><b>CHARLES</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=1>These news, my lord, may cheer our drooping spirits:</A><br>
<A NAME=2>'Tis said the stout Parisians do revolt</A><br>
<A NAME=3>And turn again unto the warlike French.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech2><b>ALENCON</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=4>Then march to Paris, royal Charles of France,</A><br>
<A NAME=5>And keep not back your powers in dalliance.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech3><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=6>Peace be amongst them, if they turn to us;</A><br>
<A NAME=7>Else, ruin combat with their palaces!</A><br>
<p><i>Enter Scout</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech4><b>Scout</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=8>Success unto our valiant general,</A><br>
<A NAME=9>And happiness to his accomplices!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech5><b>CHARLES</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=10>What tidings send our scouts? I prithee, speak.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech6><b>Scout</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=11>The English army, that divided was</A><br>
<A NAME=12>Into two parties, is now conjoined in one,</A><br>
<A NAME=13>And means to give you battle presently.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech7><b>CHARLES</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=14>Somewhat too sudden, sirs, the warning is;</A><br>
<A NAME=15>But we will presently provide for them.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech8><b>BURGUNDY</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=16>I trust the ghost of Talbot is not there:</A><br>
<A NAME=17>Now he is gone, my lord, you need not fear.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech9><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=18>Of all base passions, fear is most accursed.</A><br>
<A NAME=19>Command the conquest, Charles, it shall be thine,</A><br>
<A NAME=20>Let Henry fret and all the world repine.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech10><b>CHARLES</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=21>Then on, my lords; and France be fortunate!</A><br>
<p><i>Exeunt</i></p>
