My Shakespeare's monologue and approaching script

This is My Shakespeare's monologue from kind John , I am playing the character of the young prince Arthur of Brittany , who is afraid that his uncle may kill him to gain the throne, which leads me to commit suicide by jumping off the balcony of the castle.  My character is saying why did he have to be the air to the throw . My monologue is takings from King John Act 5 scene 1. 

In my monologue, the present situation is that Kings Johns loyal henchman, Hubert is ordered to torture and execute the teenage prince Arthur the rightful air to the throne. My Character came here to see how his friend is down, however later in finding out he has to be killed by his best friend. 

Hubert is one of Arthur's good friends in the castle. Arthur is saying to Hubert how  could you look at me and say you are going to kill , when I was the one who helped you when you were sad , when u was the one who was with you when you feel ill etc. 

In the monologue Arthur is saying that Hubert should do what he is told to do and if he can't Arthur would do it him self because that's how much he loves Hubert. In the scene the king has told Hubert to cut out Arthur's eyes and give it to the king. 

Hurbert could not do it him self so he made another person do it but then Arthur goes no that he wants Hubert to do it instead. 

Arthur tells Hubert to cut out because he does not want to ever look at Hubert again for thinking of doing this thing even though the king told him, however, hue burr loves Arthur so much that he couldn't and didn't do it. 

Hurbert says he will lie to the king that he killed Arthur but Arthur loved Hurbert so much that he committed suicide so that Hubert won't be killed by the king. 

In my scene I am in the palace dungeon. My charcter is wearing quite mid-evil clothes, he is wearing shakespearing attire. 


I wil be wearing quite colourful clothes and a lot of gold on my clothes, for example chains,gold Cape and my crown etc.
