And your face muscles have looked like those of someone breathing in, on the point of making an important decision… Oh what does all this mean? My lord is involved in something very serious.

Your soul has been in such conflict, so profoundly disturbing your sleep that beads of sweat have stood on your forehead like bubbles in a recently disturbed river.
HENRY IV PART 1 ACT 3 SCENE 2 FULL
‘Oh my dear lord,’ she said, ‘why are you alone like this? What have I done that I’ve been banished from my Harry’s bed? Tell me, my sweet lord, what has put you off your food, your pleasure and your blissful sleep? Why do you keep staring at the ground, starting so often when you’re sitting on your own? Why have you become so pale and why have you exchanged the pleasure of my body and my right to yours for sullen contemplation and bad-tempered melancholy? I have heard you, while in restless sleep, muttering about hard battles, using the language of horse handling crying ‘Courage!’ and ‘To the field!’ And you’ve been talking about advances and retreats, of trenches, tents, pikes, front lines, parapets, of guns, of cannons, battlefield weapons, of soldiers slain, and all the appurtenances of a full blown battle. I have to leave you in the next couple of hours.’ Hotspur’s wife had been looking for him and now she came in. Oh, Hotspur felt that he could divide himself in two, with the two halves fighting each other for revealing his plans to such a bowl of skim milk! Well, hang him, let him tell the King – they were ready. God, if he were anywhere near that rascal he would brain him with his wife’s fan! Weren’t there his father, his uncle, and himself? Lord Edmund Mortimer, the Archbishop of York, and Owen Glendower? And wasn’t there in addition, Douglas? Didn’t he have all their letters to meet him, armed, by the ninth of next month, and hadn’t some of them set out already? What a faithless rascal this was, a real infidel! Ha! Now they were going to see him running to the King out of fear and cold-heartedness and laying all their plans before him. An excellent plot, very sound friends – what a killjoy this rogue was! Indeed, the Archbishop of York himself endorsed the plot and the general plan of action. God, their plot was a good plot – as good a plot as was ever laid, and their supporters were sound and loyal, all ready and eager to go. ‘That’s your view!’ The man was a shallow cowardly deer and he was lying. ‘What you are doing is dangerous the friends you have mentioned are unreliable the timing is bad, and your whole plot too lightweight for such substantial opposition.’ Hotspur threw his hands up.

‘What you are doing is dangerous.’ Well that was certain! It was dangerous to catch a cold, to sleep, to drink, but what he would say to the idiot was: that out of this nettle of danger they were about to snatch safety and transform it into a flower. He would be very happy? Why wasn’t he then? Because of his respect for our house? The letter showed that he loved his barn better than their house! He looked at the letter again. ‘However, for my own part, my lord, I would be very happy to be there because of my respect for your house.’ Hotspur paced the hall of Warkworth, his castle in Northumberland.
