King John is seated in chair wearing white robe, with Pembroke and Prince Henry to the left of him, and Bigot to the right. King John sits up, clutches his chest, flops back in the chair (speaking on-and-off all the while), the retainers look concerned, the King shakes his head back and forth, reaches a hand out, Prince Henry steps nearer and takes his hand but the King turns away, clutches his chest again, his eyes stare, he sits up, clutches his stomach, lies back, Prince Henry kneels and takes his hand once more but the king pulls it away and wipes at it with his other hand, clutching at his chest with one hand.
