     Act III 

    
    ACT III: SCENE II	The same. Plains near Angiers.

    
    	Alarums, excursions. Enter the BASTARD, with
    	AUSTRIA'S head
    
    BASTARD	Now, by my life, this day grows wondrous hot;
    	Some airy devil hovers in the sky
    	And pours down mischief. Austria's head lie there,
    	While Philip breathes.
    
    	Enter KING JOHN, ARTHUR, and HUBERT
    
    KING JOHN	Hubert, keep this boy. Philip, make up:
    	My mother is assailed in our tent,
    	And ta'en, I fear.
    
    BASTARD	                  My lord, I rescued her;
    	Her highness is in safety, fear you not:
    	But on, my liege; for very little pains
    	Will bring this labour to an happy end.
    
    	Exeunt
