Question
A play written in Latin about this man is the only canonical play by Thomas Legge. In an anonymous play, this man says “revenge” 16 times in a speech Hamlet quotes when he says, “the croaking raven doth bellow for revenge.” In a speech from one play, this man claims he can “set the murderous Machiavel to school” and “add colours to the chameleon.” The stage direction “she spitteth at him” is from a scene where this man states, “Take up the sword again, or take up me” when proposing to a woman over her (*) husband’s corpse. In a Shakespearean adaptation by Colley Cibber, this man proclaims, “Off with his head! So much for Buckingham.” During a battle in one play, this man is tormented by the ghosts of people he murdered like his brother Clarence and the two young princes. For 10 points, name this English king whom Elizabethan playwrights like William Shakespeare depicted as a hunchback. ■END■
