			"God quit you in his mercy!  Hear your sentence. You have conspired against our royal person, Joined with an enemy proclaimed and from his coffers Received the golden earnest of our death; Wherein you would have sold your king to slaughter, His princes and peers to servitude, His subjects to opression and contempt And his whole kingdom into desolation. Touching our person seek we no revenge; But we our kingdom's safety must so tender, Whose ruin you have sought, that to her laws We do deliver you. Get you therefore hence, Poor miserable wretches, to your death: The taste whereof, God of his mercy give Your patience to endure, and true repentance Of all your dear offences!  Bear them hence." - King Henry V - to Cambridge, Scoop and Grey Henry V Act II Scene II, 170-185 William Shakespeare
