    Are you drawn forth among a world of men
    To slay the innocent? What is my offense?
    Where is the evidence that doth accuse me?
    What lawful quest have given their verdict up
    Unto the frowning judge? or who pronounced
    The bitter sentence of poor Clarence's death
    Before I be convict by course of law?
    To threaten me with death is most unlawful:
    I charge you, as you hope [to have redemption
    By Christ's dear blood shed for our grievous sins,]
    That you depart, and lay no hands on me.
    The deed you undertake is damnable.
