And all [my] friends, which thou must make thy friends, Have but their stings and teeth newly ta’en out; By whose fell working I was first advanc’d, And by whose power I well might lodge a fear To be again displac’d; which to avoid, I cut them off, and had a purpose now To lead out many to the Holy Land, Lest rest and lying still might make them look Too near unto my state. Therefore, my Harry, Be it thy course to busy giddy minds With foreign quarrels, that action, hence borne out, May waste the memory of the former days.
