                               ACT V。 SCENE 3。 



       The Council Chamber 

       A Council table brought in�察�with chairs and stools�察�and placed under 

the state。 Enter LORD CHANCELLOR�察�places himself at the upper end of 

the   table  on   the  left  band�察 �a  seat  being   left  void  above    him�察 �as  for 

Canterbury's      seat。  DUKE       OF    SUFFOLK�察      �DUKE       OF   NORFOLK�察�

SURREY�察       �LORD     CHAMBERLAIN�察           �GARDINER�察       �seat  themselves     in 

order on each side�察�CROMWELL at lower end�察�as secretary。 KEEPER at 

the door 

       CHANCELLOR。   Speak   to   the   business�察  �master   secretary�察  �Why   are 

we met in council�拭�CROMWELL。 Please your honours�察�The chief cause 

concerns his Grace of Canterbury。 GARDINER。 Has he had knowledge of 

it�拭�CROMWELL。 Yes。 NORFOLK。 Who waits there�拭�KEEPER。 Without�察�

my noble lords�拭�GARDINER。 Yes。 KEEPER。 My Lord Archbishop�察�And 

has done half an hour�察�to know your pleasures。 CHANCELLOR。 Let him 

come in。 KEEPER。 Your Grace may enter now。 

       CRANMER approaches the Council table 

       CHANCELLOR。 My good Lord Archbishop�察�I am very sorry To sit 

here at this present�察�and behold That chair stand empty�察�but we all are men�察�

In our own natures frail and capable Of our flesh�察�few are angels�察�out of 

which frailty And want of wisdom�察 �you�察�that best should teach us�察�Have 

misdemean'd yourself�察�and not a little�察�Toward the King first�察�then his laws�察�

in filling The whole realm by your teaching and your chaplains For so 

we   are   inform'dwith   new   opinions�察  �Divers   and   dangerous�察  �which   are 

heresies�察�And�察  �not   reform'd�察  �may   prove   pernicious。   GARDINER。   Which 

reformation must be sudden too�察�My noble lords�察�for those that tame wild 

horses   Pace   'em   not   in   their   hands   to   make   'em   gentle�察  �But   stop   their 

mouth with stubborn bits and spur 'em Till they obey the manage。 If we 

suffer�察  �Out   of   our   easiness   and   childish   pity   To   one   man's   honour�察  �this 

contagious      sickness�察  �Farewell     all  physic�察  �and    what    follows    then�拭�

Commotions�察�uproars�察�with a general taint Of the whole state�察�as of late 

days our neighbours�察�The upper Germany�察�can dearly witness�察�Yet freshly 

pitied   in   our   memories。   CRANMER。   My   good   lords�察  �hitherto   in   all   the

progress   Both   of   my   life   and   office�察  �I   have   labour'd�察�And   with   no   little 

study�察�that my teaching And the strong course of my authority Might go 

one way�察�and safely�察�and the end Was ever to do well。 Nor is there living 

I speak it with a single heart�察�my lords A man that more detests�察�more 

stirs against�察�Both in his private conscience and his place�察�Defacers of a 

public peace than I do。 Pray heaven the King may never find a heart With 

less allegiance in it� �Men that make Envy and crooked malice nourishment 

Dare bite the best。 I do beseech your lordships That�察�in this case of justice�察�

my accusers�察�Be what they will�察�may stand forth face to face And freely 

urge   against   me。   SUFFOLK。   Nay�察  �my   lord�察  �That   cannot   be�察  �you   are   a 

councillor�察�And by that virtue no man dare accuse you。 GARDINER。 My 

lord�察 �because   we have   business of   more   moment�察�We   will   be   short   with 

you。 'Tis his   Highness' pleasure And our consent�察�for   better trial of   you�察�

From hence you be committed to the Tower�察�Where�察�being but a private 

man again�察�You shall know many dare accuse you boldly�察�More than�察�I fear�察�

you   are   provided   for。   CRANMER。 Ah�察  �my   good   Lord   of   Winchester�察  �I 

thank you�察�You are always my good friend�察�if your will pass�察�I shall both 

find your lordship judge and juror�察�You are so merciful。 I see your end 

'Tis   my  undoing。  Love   and   meekness�察  �lord�察 �Become   a   churchman   better 

than   ambition�察  �Win   straying   souls   with   modesty  again�察  �Cast   none   away。 

That I shall clear myself�察�Lay all the weight ye can upon my patience�察�I 

make as little doubt as you do conscience In doing daily wrongs。 I could 

say more�察�But reverence to your calling makes me modest。 GARDINER。 

My lord�察�my lord�察�you are a sectary�察�That's the plain truth。 Your painted 

gloss    discovers�察   �To   men     that  understand     you�察  �words     and   weakness。 

CROMWELL。 My Lord of Winchester�察�y'are a little�察�By your good favour�察�

too sharp�察�men so noble�察�However faulty�察�yet should find respect For what 

they have been�察�'tis   a cruelty To load   a falling man。 GARDINER。  Good 

Master   Secretary�察  �I   cry   your   honour   mercy�察  �you   may�察  �worst   Of   all   this 

table�察�say so。 CROMWELL。 Why�察�my lord�拭�GARDINER。 Do not I know 

you for a favourer Of this new sect�拭�Ye are not sound。 CROMWELL。 Not 

sound�拭  �GARDINER。   Not   sound�察  �I   say。   CROMWELL。   Would   you   were 

half   so   honest�    �Men's    prayers   then   would     seek   you�察  �not  their   fears。 

GARDINER。   I   shall   remember   this   bold   language。   CROMWELL。   Do。

Remember your bold life too。 CHANCELLOR。 This is too much�察�Forbear�察�

for   shame�察  �my   lords。   GARDINER。   I   have   done。   CROMWELL。   And   I。 

CHANCELLOR。 Then thus for you�察�my lord�此�it stands agreed�察�I take it�察�by 

all voices�察�that forthwith You be convey'd to th' Tower a prisoner�察�There to 

remain   till   the   King's   further   pleasure   Be   known   unto   us。   Are   you   all 

agreed�察�lords�拭�ALL。 We are。 CRANMER。 Is there no other way of mercy�察�

But I must needs to th' Tower�察�my lords�拭�GARDINER。 What other Would 

you expect�拭�You are strangely troublesome。 Let some o' th' guard be ready 

there。 

       Enter the guard 

       CRANMER。 For me�拭�Must I go like a traitor thither�拭�GARDINER。 

Receive him�察�And see him safe i' th' Tower。 CRANMER。 Stay�察�good my 

lords�察�I have a little yet to say。 Look there�察�my lords�察�By virtue of that ring 

I take my cause Out of the gripes of cruel men and give it To a most noble 

judge�察  �the   King   my   master。   CHAMBERLAIN。   This   is   the   King's   ring。 

SURREY。 'Tis no counterfeit。 SUFFOLK。 'Tis the right ring�察�by heav'n。 I 

told ye all�察�When we first put this dangerous stone a´rolling�察�'Twould fall 

upon ourselves。 NORFOLK。 Do you think�察�my lords�察�The King will suffer 

but the little finger Of this man to be vex'd�拭�CHAMBERLAIN。 'Tis now 

too certain�察�How much more is his life in value with him� �Would I were 

fairly   out   on't�   �CROMWELL。   My   mind   gave   me�察  �In   seeking   tales   and 

informations Against this manwhose honesty the devil And his disciples 

only envy at Ye blew the fire that burns ye。 Now have at ye� �

       Enter the KING frowning on them�察�he takes his seat 

       GARDINER。 Dread sovereign�察�how much are we bound to heaven In 

daily thanks�察�that gave us such a prince�察�Not only good and wise but most 

religious�察�One that in all obedience makes the church The chief aim of his 

honour and�察  �to   strengthen That   holy  duty�察 �out   of   dear   respect�察  �His   royal 

self   in  judgment   comes   to   hear   The   cause   betwixt   her   and   this    great 

offender。 KING。 You were ever good at sudden commendations�察�Bishop of 

Winchester。  But   know  I   come   not To   hear   such   flattery  now�察 �and   in   my 

presence They are too thin and bare to hide offences。 To me you cannot 

reach you play the spaniel�察�And think with wagging of your tongue to win 

me�察�But whatsoe'er thou tak'st me for�察�I'm sure Thou hast a cruel nature

SURREY。 May it please your Grace KING。 No�察�sir�察�it does not please me。 

I had thought I had had men of some understanding And wisdom of my 

Council�察�but I find none。 Was it discretion�察�lords�察�to let this man�察�This good 

manfew   of   you   deserve   that   title   This   honest   man�察  �wait   like   a   lousy 

footboy   At   chamber   door�拭  �and   one   as   great   as   you   are�拭  �Why�察  �what   a 

shame   was   this�   �Did   my   commission   Bid   ye   so   far   forget   yourselves�拭  �I 

gave ye Power as he was a councillor to try him�察�Not as a groom。 There's 

some of ye�察�I see�察�More out of malice than integrity�察�Would try him to the 

utmost�察     �had    ye   mean�察     �Which      ye   shall    never    have     while    I   live。 

CHANCELLOR。   Thus   far�察  �My   most   dread   sovereign�察  �may   it   like   your 

Grace   To   let   my   tongue   excuse   all。   What   was   purpos'd   Concerning   his
