KING JOHN.  If that the Dauphin there, thy princely son,  Can in this book of beauty read 'I love,'  Her dowry shall weigh equal with a queen;  For Anjou, and fair Touraine, Maine, Poictiers,  And all that we upon this side the sea -  Except this city now by us besieg'd -  Find liable to our crown and dignity,  Shall gild her bridal bed, and make her rich  In titles, honours, and promotions,  As she in beauty, education, blood,  Holds hand with any princess of the world.
