This is clear from the meaning of 'speak, I beg you' as an anxious plea; and from the meaning of 'ears' as obedience, dealt with in 2542, 3869, 4551, 4652-4660, in this instance consent since the plea is addressed to the king. Obedience too is consent; but the word obedience is used in reference to inferiors, consent in reference to superiors.
