. Audience: peace, I say! First, hear me speak. Well, say. Peace, ho! Shall I be charged no further than this present? Must all determine here? I do demand, If you submit you to the people's voices, Allow their officers and are content To suffer lawful censure for such faults As shall be proved upon you? I am content.
