Buckingham
Why, all this business
Our reverend cardinal carried.

You know his nature,
That he’s revengeful, and I know his sword
Hath a sharp edge

Norfolk
Like it your Grace,
The state takes notice of the private difference
Betwixt you and the Cardinal. I advise you—
And take it from a heart that wishes towards you
Honor and plenteous safety—that you read
The Cardinal’s malice and his potency
TogetherParenthesis; to consider further that
What his high hatred would effect wants not
A minister in his power. You know his nature,
That he’s revengeful,Apposition and I know his sword
Hath a sharp edge; it’s long, and ’t may be said
It reaches far, and where ’twill not extend,
Thither he darts it.Metaphor Bosom up my counsel;
You’ll find it wholesome. Lo where comes that rock
That I advise your shunning.Metaphor
