To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A father's bloody murder I avenge. Stern filial duty consecrates my arms. TALBOT. Confess at once. Your conduct towards the DauphinIs an offence alike to God and man. ISABEL. Curses blast him and his posterity!The shameless son who sins against his mother! BURGUNDY. Ay! to avenge a husband and a father! ISABEL. To judge his mother's conduct he presumed! LIONEL. That was, indeed, irreverent in a son! ISABEL. And me, forsooth, he banished from the realm. TALBOT. Urged to the measure by the public... voice. ISABEL. A curse light on him if I e'er forgive him!Rather than see him on his father's throne---- TALBOT. His mother's honor you would sacrifice! ISABEL. Your feeble natures cannot comprehendThe vengeance of an outraged mother's heart. Who pleasures me, I love; who wrongs, I hate. If he who wrongs me chance to be my son, All the more worthy is he of my hate. The life I gave I will again take backFrom him who doth, with ruthless violence, The bosom rend which bore and nourished him. Ye, who do thus make war upon the Dauphin, What rightful cause have ye to plunder him?What crime hath he committed against you?What insult are you called on to avenge?Ambition, paltry envy, goad you on;I have a right to hate him--he's my son.
