Quotes3

  • Edward II: I here create thee Lord High Chamberlain, Chief Secretary to the State and me, Earl of Cornwall, King and Lord of Man.
  • Piers Gaveston: My Lord, these titles far exceed my worth.
  • Edward II: Thy worth sweet friend is far above my gifts. And therefore to equal it, receive my heart.
  • Mortimer: Monster of men. Look for no other fortune, wretch, than death.
  • Piers Gaveston: I thank you all my lords. Here I perceive that heading is one, and hanging is the other, and death is all.
  • [Gaveston is killed]
  • Mortimer: Come, let thy shadow parley with King Edward.
  • Piers Gaveston: Farewell, base stooping to the lordly peers: my knee shall bow to none but to the King. As for the multitude, that are but sparks raked up in embers of their poverty... fuck 'em.
