SCENE IV.--ANOTHER PART OF THE FIELD OF BATTLE.

_Alarums. Enter DAUPHIN, ORLEANS, BOURBON, CONSTABLE, RAMBURES,

and Others, hastily, and in confusion, L.H._

_Dau._ (C.) All is confounded, all!

Reproach and everlasting shame

Sits mocking in our plumes.

[_Alarums, L._

_Con._ Why, all our ranks are broke.

_Dau._ O perdurable shame![26]--let's stab ourselves.

Be these the wretches that we play'd at dice for?

_Orl._ (L.C.) Is this the king we sent to for his ransom?

_Dau._ Shame, and eternal shame, nothing but shame!

Let us die in honor: Once more back again.

_Con._ (C.) Disorder, that hath spoil'd us, friend us now!

Let us in heaps go offer up our lives

Unto these English, or else die with fame.

_Dau._ (R.C.) We are enough, yet living in the field,

To smother up the English in our throngs,

If any order might be thought upon.

_Con._ The devil take order now! I'll to the throng:

Let life be short; else shame will be too long.

_Alarums._

[_Exeunt L.H._

[Footnote IV.26: _O +perdurable+ shame!_] _Perdurable_ is

lasting.]
