Henry VI, Part III by William Shakespeare (story books for 5 year olds txt) ๐
Description
The first battle of St. Albanโs is over and the White Rose faction is victorious. They have captured Henry VI and, after having threatened him with violence, secured the kingโs promise of passing the crown to Edward Plantagenet after his death. Not willing to accept her sonโs disinheritance, Queen Margaret decides to take matters into her own hands and declares war on the Yorkists.
Margaretโs forces invade Wakefield Castle, home to the Duke of York and his sons, and successfully capture York. The queen and Clifford taunt York and eventually stab him to death. Yorkโs sons Edward and Richard receive news of their fatherโs death, vow to get their revenge, and plan to place Edward on the English throne.
This Standard Ebooks production is based on William George Clark and William Aldis Wrightโs 1887 Victoria edition, which is taken from the Globe edition.

And hither have they sent it for her ransom. King Edward
Away with her, and waft her hence to France.
And now what rests but that we spend the time
With stately triumphs, mirthful comic shows,
Such as befits the pleasure of the court?
Sound drums and trumpets! farewell sour annoy!
For here, I hope, begins our lasting joy. Exeunt.
