The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King Henry VI by William Shakespeare: Confess who set thee up and pluck'd thee down?
Call Warwick patron and be penitent,
And thou shalt still remain the Duke of York.
GLOSTER.
I thought, at least, he would have said the king;
Or did he make the jest against his will?
WARWICK.
Is not a dukedom, sir, a goodly gift?
GLOSTER.
Ay, by my faith, for a poor earl to give;
I'll do thee service for so good a gift.
