Constance Monologue from King John

From King John by William Shakespeare

female · anguished · 44 sec

Thou mayst, thou shalt; I will not go with thee. I will instruct my sorrows to be proud, For grief is proud and makes his owner stoop. To me and to the state of my great grief Let kings assemble; for my grief’s so great That no supporter but the huge firm earth Can hold it up. Here I and sorrows sit; Here is my throne, bid kings come bow to it. Enter King John, King Philip, Louis, Blanche, Eleanor, Bastard, Austria and attendants.
