Enter the Ghost of King Henry VI

Ghost of King Henry VI [To KING RICHARD III]

When I was mortal, my anointed body By thee was punched full of deadly holes Think on the Tower and me: despair, and die!

Harry the Sixth bids thee despair, and die!

To RICHMOND

Virtuous and holy, be thou conqueror!

Harry, that prophesied thou shouldst be king, Doth comfort thee in thy sleep: live, and flourish!

Enter the Ghost of CLARENCE Ghost of CLARENCE [To KING RICHARD III]

Let me sit heavy on thy soul to-morrow!

I, that was wash'd to death with fulsome wine, Poor Clarence, by thy guile betrayed to death!

To-morrow in the battle think on me, And fall thy edgeless sword: despair, and die!--To RICHMOND

Thou offspring of the house of Lancaster The wronged heirs of York do pray for thee Good angels guard thy battle! live, and flourish!

Enter the Ghosts of RIVERS, GRAY, and VAUGHAN Ghost of RIVERS [To KING RICHARD III]

Let me sit heavy on thy soul to-morrow, Rivers. that died at Pomfret! despair, and die! Ghost of GREY [To KING RICHARD III]

Think upon Grey, and let thy soul despair! Ghost of VAUGHAN [To KING RICHARD III]

Think upon Vaughan, and, with guilty fear, Let fall thy lance: despair, and die! All [To RICHMOND]

Awake, and think our wrongs in Richard's bosom Will conquer him! awake, and win the day!

Enter the Ghost of HASTINGS Ghost of HASTINGS [To KING RICHARD III]

Bloody and guilty, guiltily awake, And in a bloody battle end thy days!

Think on Lord Hastings: despair, and die!

To RICHMOND

Quiet untroubled soul, awake, awake!

Arm, fight, and conquer, for fair England's sake!

Enter the Ghosts of the two young Princes Ghosts of young Princes [To KING RICHARD III]

Dream on thy cousins smother'd in the Tower:

Let us be led within thy bosom, Richard, And weigh thee down to ruin, shame, and death!

Thy nephews' souls bid thee despair and die!

To RICHMOND

Sleep, Richmond, sleep in peace, and wake in joy;

Good angels guard thee from the boar's annoy!

Live, and beget a happy race of kings!

Edward's unhappy sons do bid thee flourish.

Enter the Ghost of LADY ANNE Ghost of LADY ANNE [To KING RICHARD III]

Richard, thy wife, that wretched Anne thy wife, That never slept a quiet hour with thee, Now fills thy sleep with perturbations To-morrow in the battle think on me, And fall thy edgeless sword: despair, and die!

To RICHMOND

Thou quiet soul, sleep thou a quiet sleep Dream of success and happy victory!

Thy adversary's wife doth pray for thee.

Enter the Ghost of BUCKINGHAM

Ghost of BUCKINGHAM [To KING RICHARD III]

The last was I that helped thee to the crown;

The last was I that felt thy tyranny:

O, in the battle think on Buckingham, And die in terror of thy guiltiness!

Dream on, dream on, of bloody deeds and death:

Fainting, despair; despairing, yield thy breath!

To RICHMOND

I died for hope ere I could lend thee aid:

But cheer thy heart, and be thou not dismay'd:

God and good angel fight on Richmond's side;

And Richard falls in height of all his pride.

The Ghosts vanish KING RICHARD III starts out of his dream KING RICHARD III Give me another horse: bind up my wounds.

Have mercy, Jesu!--Soft! I did but dream.

O coward conscience, how dost thou afflict me!

The lights burn blue. It is now dead midnight.

Cold fearful drops stand on my trembling flesh.

What do I fear? myself? there's none else by:

Richard loves Richard; that is, I am I.

Is there a murderer here? No. Yes, I am:

Then fly. What, from myself? Great reason why:

Lest I revenge. What, myself upon myself?

Alack. I love myself. Wherefore? for any good That I myself have done unto myself?

O, no! alas, I rather hate myself For hateful deeds committed by myself!

I am a villain: yet I lie. I am not.

Fool, of thyself speak well: fool, do not flatter.

My conscience hath a thousand several tongues, And every tongue brings in a several tale, And every tale condemns me for a villain.

Perjury, perjury, in the high'st degree Murder, stem murder, in the direst degree;

All several sins, all used in each degree, Throng to the bar, crying all, Guilty! guilty!

I shall despair. There is no creature loves me;

And if I die, no soul shall pity me:

Nay, wherefore should they, since that I myself Find in myself no pity to myself?

Methought the souls of all that I had murder'd Came to my tent; and every one did threat To-morrow's vengeance on the head of Richard.

Enter RATCLIFF RATCLIFF My lord! KING RICHARD III 'Zounds! who is there? RATCLIFF Ratcliff, my lord; 'tis I. The early village-cock Hath twice done salutation to the morn;

Your friends are up, and buckle on their armour. KING RICHARD III O Ratcliff, I have dream'd a fearful dream!

What thinkest thou, will our friends prove all true? RATCLIFF No doubt, my lord. KING RICHARD III O Ratcliff, I fear, I fear,-- RATCLIFF Nay, good my lord, be not afraid of shadows. KING RICHARD III By the apostle Paul, shadows to-night Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Than can the substance of ten thousand soldiers Armed in proof, and led by shallow Richmond.

It is not yet near day. Come, go with me;

Under our tents I'll play the eaves-dropper, To see if any mean to shrink from me.

Exeunt Enter the Lords to RICHMOND, sitting in his tent LORDS Good morrow, Richmond! RICHMOND Cry mercy, lords and watchful gentlemen, That you have ta'en a tardy sluggard here. LORDS How have you slept, my lord? RICHMOND The sweetest sleep, and fairest-boding dreams That ever enter'd in a drowsy head, Have I since your departure had, my lords.

Methought their souls, whose bodies Richard murder'd, Came to my tent, and cried on victory:

  • 好父母你该如何爱孩子

    好父母你该如何爱孩子

    普天下的父母最无私的时候就是爱孩子的时候。全天下的父母都一样。但是当父母在爱孩子的时候,是否考虑过孩子的感受呢?是否思考过:这些究竟是孩子的需要,还是父母的需要?宠爱和溺爱仅有一线之隔,除了物质,我们还有其他方法爱孩子吗?“圈养”还是“放养”,究竟哪一种教育方式更加完善呢?凡此种种,不一而足。对孩子的爱,如何给,给多少,都是应该细致讨论的问题。本书向父母说说什么是真正的爱,什么是错误的爱,该怎样去爱孩子,该怎样让孩子去爱别人。我们都知道,能够决定一个人命运的,从来都不是什么技术性的工作技巧和生存技能,只有好的性格才是孩子受益一生的财富,才是好的命运的基石。
  • 小学生基础语感在阅读教学中的分学段培养与评价

    小学生基础语感在阅读教学中的分学段培养与评价

    语感是在理解和表达过程中,对言语对象进行直觉建构的一种言语能力,其心理表征是一个开放的图式与产生式的复合体。基础语感本质上也是一种语感,不同在于它是基于小学生心理发展水平、文化积累和生活体验的,侧重于理解与表达字、词、句、段、篇等基本言语对象的基础言语能力。小学语文教学应注重分学段来培养学生的基础语感。在小学阅读教学中分学段培养与评价基础语感,应始于培养目标的制定,然后根据目标的教学心理学分类来导学、导教、导测量。在测量与评价基础语感时,还应着眼于学生发展,结合具体语境从外显表现与内隐理解两方面进行整体的、多样化的评价。
