An Alarum. Excursions. Enter Sir John Fastolfe and a Captain.
Cap. Whither away, Sir John Fastolfe, in such haste? 104
Fast. Whither away! to save myself by flight:
We are like to have the overthrow again.
Cap. What! will you fly, and leave Lord Talbot?
Fast.Ay,
All the Talbots in the world, to save my life. 108
Exit.
Cap. Cowardly knight! ill fortune follow thee!
Exit.
Retreat. Excursions. Pucelle, Alençon, and Charles fly.
Bed. Now, quiet soul, depart when Heaven please,
For I have seen our enemies' overthrow.
What is the trust or strength of foolish man? 112
They, that of late were daring with their scoffs,
Are glad and fain by flight to save themselves.
Bedford dies, and is carried in by two in his chair.
An Alarum. Enter Talbot, Burgundy, and the rest.
Tal. Lost, and recover'd in a day again!
This is a double honour, Burgundy: 116
Yet heavens have glory for this victory!
Bur. Warlike and martial Talbot, Burgundy
Enshrines thee in his heart, and there erects
Thy noble deeds as valour's monument. 120
Tal. Thanks, gentle duke. But where is Pucelle now?
I think her old familiar is asleep.
