Queen Elizabeth Monologue from Richard III

From Richard III by William Shakespeare

female · anguished · 34 sec

My lord of Gloucester, I have too long borne Your blunt upbraidings and your bitter scoffs. By heaven, I will acquaint his Majesty Of those gross taunts that oft I have endured. I had rather be a country servant-maid Than a great queen with this condition, To be so baited, scorned, and stormed at. Enter old Queen Margaret behind. Small joy have I in being England’s queen.
