<p><blockquote>
<i>Alarum. Excursions. Enter JOAN LA PUCELLE</i>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech1><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=1>The regent conquers, and the Frenchmen fly.</A><br>
<A NAME=2>Now help, ye charming spells and periapts;</A><br>
<A NAME=3>And ye choice spirits that admonish me</A><br>
<A NAME=4>And give me signs of future accidents.</A><br>
<p><i>Thunder</i></p>
<A NAME=5>You speedy helpers, that are substitutes</A><br>
<A NAME=6>Under the lordly monarch of the north,</A><br>
<A NAME=7>Appear and aid me in this enterprise.</A><br>
<p><i>Enter Fiends</i></p>
<A NAME=8>This speedy and quick appearance argues proof</A><br>
<A NAME=9>Of your accustom'd diligence to me.</A><br>
<A NAME=10>Now, ye familiar spirits, that are cull'd</A><br>
<A NAME=11>Out of the powerful regions under earth,</A><br>
<A NAME=12>Help me this once, that France may get the field.</A><br>
<p><i>They walk, and speak not</i></p>
<A NAME=13>O, hold me not with silence over-long!</A><br>
<A NAME=14>Where I was wont to feed you with my blood,</A><br>
<A NAME=15>I'll lop a member off and give it you</A><br>
<A NAME=16>In earnest of further benefit,</A><br>
<A NAME=17>So you do condescend to help me now.</A><br>
<p><i>They hang their heads</i></p>
<A NAME=18>No hope to have redress? My body shall</A><br>
<A NAME=19>Pay recompense, if you will grant my suit.</A><br>
<p><i>They shake their heads</i></p>
<A NAME=20>Cannot my body nor blood-sacrifice</A><br>
<A NAME=21>Entreat you to your wonted furtherance?</A><br>
<A NAME=22>Then take my soul, my body, soul and all,</A><br>
<A NAME=23>Before that England give the French the foil.</A><br>
<p><i>They depart</i></p>
<A NAME=24>See, they forsake me! Now the time is come</A><br>
<A NAME=25>That France must vail her lofty-plumed crest</A><br>
<A NAME=26>And let her head fall into England's lap.</A><br>
<A NAME=27>My ancient incantations are too weak,</A><br>
<A NAME=28>And hell too strong for me to buckle with:</A><br>
<A NAME=29>Now, France, thy glory droopeth to the dust.</A><br>
<p><i>Exit</i></p>
<p><i>Excursions. Re-enter JOAN LA PUCELLE fighting hand  to hand with YORK. JOAN LA PUCELLE is taken. The French fly.</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech2><b>YORK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=30>Damsel of France, I think I have you fast:</A><br>
<A NAME=31>Unchain your spirits now with spelling charms</A><br>
<A NAME=32>And try if they can gain your liberty.</A><br>
<A NAME=33>A goodly prize, fit for the devil's grace!</A><br>
<A NAME=34>See, how the ugly wench doth bend her brows,</A><br>
<A NAME=35>As if with Circe she would change my shape!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech3><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=36>Changed to a worser shape thou canst not be.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech4><b>YORK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=37>O, Charles the Dauphin is a proper man;</A><br>
<A NAME=38>No shape but his can please your dainty eye.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech5><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=39>A plaguing mischief light on Charles and thee!</A><br>
<A NAME=40>And may ye both be suddenly surprised</A><br>
<A NAME=41>By bloody hands, in sleeping on your beds!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech6><b>YORK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=42>Fell banning hag, enchantress, hold thy tongue!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech7><b>JOAN LA PUCELLE</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=43>I prithee, give me leave to curse awhile.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech8><b>YORK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=44>Curse, miscreant, when thou comest to the stake.</A><br>
<p><i>Exeunt</i></p>
<p><i>Alarum. Enter SUFFOLK with MARGARET in his hand</i></p>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech9><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=45>Be what thou wilt, thou art my prisoner.</A><br>
<p><i>Gazes on her</i></p>
<A NAME=46>O fairest beauty, do not fear nor fly!</A><br>
<A NAME=47>For I will touch thee but with reverent hands;</A><br>
<A NAME=48>I kiss these fingers for eternal peace,</A><br>
<A NAME=49>And lay them gently on thy tender side.</A><br>
<A NAME=50>Who art thou? say, that I may honour thee.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech10><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=51>Margaret my name, and daughter to a king,</A><br>
<A NAME=52>The King of Naples, whosoe'er thou art.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech11><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=53>An earl I am, and Suffolk am I call'd.</A><br>
<A NAME=54>Be not offended, nature's miracle,</A><br>
<A NAME=55>Thou art allotted to be ta'en by me:</A><br>
<A NAME=56>So doth the swan her downy cygnets save,</A><br>
<A NAME=57>Keeping them prisoner underneath her wings.</A><br>
<A NAME=58>Yet, if this servile usage once offend.</A><br>
<A NAME=59>Go, and be free again, as Suffolk's friend.</A><br>
<p><i>She is going</i></p>
<A NAME=60>O, stay! I have no power to let her pass;</A><br>
<A NAME=61>My hand would free her, but my heart says no</A><br>
<A NAME=62>As plays the sun upon the glassy streams,</A><br>
<A NAME=63>Twinkling another counterfeited beam,</A><br>
<A NAME=64>So seems this gorgeous beauty to mine eyes.</A><br>
<A NAME=65>Fain would I woo her, yet I dare not speak:</A><br>
<A NAME=66>I'll call for pen and ink, and write my mind.</A><br>
<A NAME=67>Fie, de la Pole! disable not thyself;</A><br>
<A NAME=68>Hast not a tongue? is she not here?</A><br>
<A NAME=69>Wilt thou be daunted at a woman's sight?</A><br>
<A NAME=70>Ay, beauty's princely majesty is such,</A><br>
<A NAME=71>Confounds the tongue and makes the senses rough.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech12><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=72>Say, Earl of Suffolk--if thy name be so--</A><br>
<A NAME=73>What ransom must I pay before I pass?</A><br>
<A NAME=74>For I perceive I am thy prisoner.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech13><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=75>How canst thou tell she will deny thy suit,</A><br>
<A NAME=76>Before thou make a trial of her love?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech14><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=77>Why speak'st thou not? what ransom must I pay?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech15><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=78>She's beautiful, and therefore to be woo'd;</A><br>
<A NAME=79>She is a woman, therefore to be won.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech16><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=80>Wilt thou accept of ransom? yea, or no.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech17><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=81>Fond man, remember that thou hast a wife;</A><br>
<A NAME=82>Then how can Margaret be thy paramour?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech18><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=83>I were best to leave him, for he will not hear.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech19><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=84>There all is marr'd; there lies a cooling card.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech20><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=85>He talks at random; sure, the man is mad.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech21><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=86>And yet a dispensation may be had.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech22><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=87>And yet I would that you would answer me.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech23><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=88>I'll win this Lady Margaret. For whom?</A><br>
<A NAME=89>Why, for my king: tush, that's a wooden thing!</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech24><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=90>He talks of wood: it is some carpenter.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech25><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=91>Yet so my fancy may be satisfied,</A><br>
<A NAME=92>And peace established between these realms</A><br>
<A NAME=93>But there remains a scruple in that too;</A><br>
<A NAME=94>For though her father be the King of Naples,</A><br>
<A NAME=95>Duke of Anjou and Maine, yet is he poor,</A><br>
<A NAME=96>And our nobility will scorn the match.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech26><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=97>Hear ye, captain, are you not at leisure?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech27><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=98>It shall be so, disdain they ne'er so much.</A><br>
<A NAME=99>Henry is youthful and will quickly yield.</A><br>
<A NAME=100>Madam, I have a secret to reveal.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech28><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=101>What though I be enthrall'd? he seems a knight,</A><br>
<A NAME=102>And will not any way dishonour me.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech29><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=103>Lady, vouchsafe to listen what I say.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech30><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=104>Perhaps I shall be rescued by the French;</A><br>
<A NAME=105>And then I need not crave his courtesy.</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech31><b>SUFFOLK</b></a>
<blockquote>
<A NAME=106>Sweet madam, give me a hearing in a cause--</A><br>
</blockquote>

<blockquote>

</blockquote>

<blockquote>
<A NAME=108>Lady, wherefore talk you so?</A><br>
</blockquote>

<A NAME=speech34><b>MARGARET</b></a>
<blockquote>
