What's O'Clock

King Richard.6Ay, what's o'clock? Buckingham.16I am thus bold. To put your grace in mind of what you promised me. King Richard. Well, but what is't o'clock? Buckingham. 13Upon the stroke of ten. King Richard. Well, let it strike. Buckingham. Why, let it strike? King Richard. Because that, like a Jack, thou keep'st the stroke Betwixt thy begging and my meditation. Shakespeare. King Richard III.
