 Alarums, excursions. Enter the BASTARD, with AUSTRIA'S head  BASTARD  Now, by my life, this day grows wondrous hot; 

 Some airy devil hovers in the sky 

 And pours down mischief. Austria's head lie there, 

 While Philip breathes. 



 Enter KING JOHN, ARTHUR, and HUBERT  KING JOHN  Hubert, keep this boy. Philip, make up: 

 My mother is assailed in our tent, 

 And ta'en, I fear. 

 BASTARD  My lord, I rescued her; 

 Her highness is in safety, fear you not: 

 But on, my liege; for very little pains 

 Will bring this labour to an happy end.
