The Pictorial Edition of The Works of Shakespeare, Histories Vol. I edited by Charles Knight
 
He is the half part of a blessed man,
Left to be finished by such as she;
And she fair divided excellence,
Whose fullness of perfection lies in him. (2.1.447)
Well, while I am a beggar, I will rail,
And say there is no sin, but to be rich;
And, being rich, my virtue then shall be,
To say there is no vice but beggary. (2.1.592)
Grief fills the room up of my absent child,
Lies in his bed walks up and down with me,
Puts on his pretty looks, repeats his words,
Remembers me of all his gracious parts,
Stuffs out his vacant garments with his form:
Then have I reason to be fond of grief. (3.4.92)
A messenger from France arrives in the English court, demanding that King John abdicate his throne in favor of his nephew Arthur. The messenger speaks for King Philip of France, who supports Arthur’s claim as the rightful heir to the throne; when John refuses to step down, France threatens war… who needs Game Of Thrones?
Whether your loved one is a lover of Shakespeare or suffering withdrawal symptoms from the hiatus of Game of Thrones
One cannot do better than the original.
