Context

“Exit BASTARD ELINOR. Come hither, little kinsman; hark, a word.
KING JOHN. Come hither, Hubert. O my gentle Hubert,
We owe thee much! Within this wall of flesh
There is a soul counts thee her creditor, And with advantage means to pay thy love;
And, my good friend, thy voluntary oath Lives in this bosom, dearly cherished. Give me thy hand. I had a thing to say-
But I will fit it with some better time. By heaven, Hubert, I am almost asham'd” source
