Henry IV, Part I
[II, 1]

Chamberlain

695

Good morrow, Master Gadshill. It holds current that
I told you yesternight: there's a franklin in the
wild of Kent hath brought three hundred marks with
him in gold: I heard him tell it to one of his

that hath abundance of charge too, God knows what.
They are up already, and call for eggs and butter;
they will away presently.
