to mend your shoes。 Come; wherefore should you be so pashful? Your
shoes is not so good。 'Tis a good silling; I warrant you; or I will change it。

thousand French That in the field lie slain; of princes in this number; And
nobles bearing banners; there lie dead One hundred twenty…six; added to
these; Of knights; esquires; and gallant gentlemen; Eight thousand and
four hundred; of the which Five hundred were but yesterday dubb'd
knights。 So that; in these ten thousand they have lost; There are but sixteen
hundred mercenaries; The rest are princes; barons; lords; knights; squires;
And gentlemen of blood and quality。 The names of those their nobles that

plain shock and even play of battle; Was ever known so great and little los
On one part and on th' other? Take it; God; For it is none but thine。
EXETER。 'Tis wonderful! KING HENRY。 Come; go we in procession to
the village; And be it death proclaimed through our host To boast of this or

Captain; but with this acknowledgment; That God fought for us。
FLUELLEN。 Yes; my conscience; he did us great good。 KING HENRY。
Do we all holy rites: Let there be sung 'Non nobis' and 'Te Deum'; The
dead with charity enclos'd in clay… And then to Calais; and to England then;
Where ne'er from France arriv'd more happy men。 Exeunt

Enter CHORUS
CHORUS。 Vouchsafe to those that have not read the story That I may
prompt them; and of such as have; I humbly pray them to admit th' excuse
Of time; of numbers; and due course of things; Which cannot in their huge
and proper life Be here presented。 Now we bear the King Toward Calais。
Grant him there。 There seen; Heave him away upon your winged thoughts
Athwart the sea。 Behold; the English beach Pales in the flood with men;
with wives; and boys; Whose shouts and claps out…voice the deep…mouth'd
sea; Which; like a mighty whiffler; fore the King Seems to prepare his way。
So let him land; And solemnly see him set on to London。 So swift a pace
hath thought that even now You may imagine him upon Blackheath;
Where that his lords desire him to have borne His bruised helmet and his
bended sword Before him through the city。 He forbids it; Being free from
vainness and self…glorious pride; Giving full trophy; signal; and ostent;
Quite from himself to God。 But now behold In the quick forge and
working…house of thought; How London doth pour out her citizens! The
mayor and all his brethren in best sort… Like to the senators of th' antique
Rome; With the plebeians swarming at their heels… Go forth and fetch their
conqu'ring Caesar in; As; by a lower but loving likelihood; Were now the
General of our gracious Empress… As in good time he may… from Ireland
coming; Bringing rebellion broached on his sword; How many would the
peaceful city quit To welcome him! Much more; and much more cause;
Did they this Harry。 Now in London place him… As yet the lamentation of
the French Invites the King of England's stay at home; The Emperor's
coming in behalf of France To order peace between them; and omit All the
occurrences; whatever chanc'd; Till Harry's back…return again to France。
There must we bring him; and myself have play'd The interim; by
rememb'ring you 'tis past。 Then brook abridgment; and your eyes advance;
After your thoughts; straight back again to France。 Exit

yesterday; look you; and bid me eat my leek; it was in a place where I

will make him eat some part of my leek; or I will peat his pate four days。
Bite; I pray you; it is good for your green wound and your ploody
coxcomb。 PISTOL。 Must I bite? FL
