O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth,
That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!
Thou art the ruins of the noblest man
That ever lived in the tide of times.
Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood!

Blood, though it sleep a time, yet never dies.
The gods on murtherers fix revengeful eyes.
