Which word in this excerpt from act I, scene I, of Richard III means “to listen”?

Answers

Richard III was a historical play written by Shakespeare in 1593. At that time people used old English like hearken that has changed to hear or listen nowadays.
Since you didn't write the excerpt here, I am going to assume that there is a word 'hearken' somewhere in the text. If there is, that is your answer - it is an archaic, old word for modern 'listen'.
