KING HENRY 
      How fares my lord? Speak, Beaufort, to thy sovereign.
 CARDINAL 
       If thou be’st Death, I’ll give thee England’s treasure,
      Enough to purchase such another island,
      So thou wilt let me live and feel no pain.
 KING HENRY 
      Ah, what a sign it is of evil life,
      Where Death’s approach is seen so terrible!
 WARWICK 
      Beaufort, it is thy sovereign speaks to thee.

 CARDINAL 
      Bring me unto my trial when you will.
     Died he not in his bed? Where should he die?
      Can I make men live, whe’er they will or no?
      O, torture me no more! I will confess.
      Alive again? Then show me where he is.
      I’ll give a thousand pound to look upon him.
     He hath no eyes! The dust hath blinded them.
      Comb down his hair. Look, look. It stands upright,
     Like lime-twigs set to catch my wingèd soul.
      Give me some drink, and bid the apothecary
      Bring the strong poison that I bought of him.


 KING HENRY 
       O, Thou eternal mover of the heavens,
       Look with a gentle eye upon this wretch!
      O, beat away the busy meddling fiend
       That lays strong siege unto this wretch’s soul,
      And from his bosom purge this black despair!


 WARWICK 
      See how the pangs of death do make him grin!

   SALISBURY 
      Disturb him not. Let him pass peaceably.

  KING HENRY 
       Peace to his soul, if God’s good pleasure be!—
     Lord Card’nal, if thou think’st on heaven’s bliss,
      Hold up thy hand; make signal of thy hope.

 *The Cardinal dies.*

Rules:

• Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

  • Post news articles only
  • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
  • Title must match the article headline
  • Not United States Internal News
  • Recent (Past 30 Days)
  • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.

• Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

• Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

• Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

• Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

• Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

• Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

• Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
