HORATIO

Thatcan I;

Atleast, thewhispergoes so.Ourlast king,

Forso thissideof ourknownworld esteem'dhim--

Didslay thisFortinbras;who byaseal'd compact,

Wellratified bylawand heraldry,

Didforfeit, withhislife, allthosehis lands

Whichhe stoodseizedof, totheconqueror:

Againstthe which,amoiety competent

Wasgaged byourking; whichhadreturn'd

Tothe inheritanceofFortinbras,

Hadhe beenvanquisher;as, bythesame covenant,
