Pray God my news be worth a welcome lord, The Earl of Westmoreland seven thousand strong Is marching hitherwards, with him prince John. And further I have learned, The King himself in person is set forth, Or hitherwards intended speedily With strong and mighty preparation. All furnished all in Arms: All plumde Like Ostriches that with the wind Baited Like Eagles having lately bathed, Glittering in golden coats Like images, As full of spirit as the month of May, And gorgeous as the sun at Midsummer: Wanton as youthful goats, wild as young bulls, I saw young Harry with his beaver on, His cushes on his thighs gallantly armed, Rise from the ground Like feathered Mercury, And vaulted with such ease into his seat, As if and Angel drop down from the clouds, To turn and wind a fiery Pegasus, And witch the world with noble horsemanship. There is more news, I learned in Worcester as I road along, He can draw his power this fourteen days. To thirty thousand. Not a whit. So do we. Do not my Lord. Do me no slander Douglas, by my life, And I dare well maintain it with my life, If well respected honour bid me on, I hold as little counsel with weak fear, As you my Lord, or any Scot that this day lives, Let it be seen to morrow in the battle which of us fears: Content. Come, come, it may not be. I wonder much being men of such great leading as you are, That you foresee not what impediments Drag back our expedition, certain horse Of my cousin Vernons are not yet come up, Your Uncle Worcesters horses came but to day, And now their pride and mettle is a sleep, Their courage with hard labour tame and dull, That not a horse is half the half of himself. It best he did. Deliver what you will, isle say 'tis so. Here come your cousin. No, by my soul I never in my life Did hear a challenge vrgde more modestly, Unless a brother should a brother dare, To gentle exercise and proof of arms. He gave you all the duties of a man, Trimmed up your praises with a Princely tongue, Spoke your deservings Like a Chronicle, Making you ever better then his praise, By still dispraising praise valued with you, And which became him Like a prince indeed, He made a blushing citall of himself, And chid his truant youth with such a grace As if he mastered there a double spirit Of teaching and of learning instantly, There did he pause, but let me tell the world If he outlive the envy of this day, England did never owe so sweet a hope So much misconstrued in his wantonness.
Plot summary
Plot — 1 Henry the Fourth
Civil war has ended in England, and King H@nryiliV intends to take an English army on a crusade to liberate the Holy Land. The enterprise is delayed by continuing military instability on England’s borders. Lord MOGrfimer has been defeated in battle by Owen Glemd@Wer and taken a prisoner to Wales. In the north, H@#Splr has had better success against the Scots, but refuses to hand over his prisoners until King Henry ransoms Mortimer. But Mortimer has thrown in his lot with Glendower, so Henry refuses. TH@IPEFGy family suspects an ulterior motive: Mortimer was proclaimed heir to the throne during the previous reign, so the King has good reason to want him off the scene. Led by tH@IBAPINSPIWSreeSter, the Percies plan to put together an alliance to rise in rebellion against the King; to that end, Hotspur releases his Scottish prisoners without ransom. THEMPHNCeMSMWales spends his time idly with . BaIStaif and Poyntz, secretly intending to use his bad reputation as a foil to a subsequent reformation. They plan and execute a highway robbery, but the Prince and Poyntz disguise themselves and rob Falstaff in turn. In the tavern afterwards, Falstaffs account of these events grows progressively more inflated and extravagant; but, when confronted with the truth, he claims he knew it was the Prince all the time. News of the Percies’ plans reaches the King, and Prince Henry is summoned to court. Falstaff helps the Prince with a rehearsal: at first he plays the King, but his performance is over-partial towards himself, so the Prince takes over the part and declares that he will banish Falstaff. A hue and cry after the robbery leads the SHEfiffito the tavern, but the Prince puts him off and later pays back the stolen money; he then plans to obtain a military commission for Falstaff. The rebel lords meet to agree the division of the kingdom, but Hotspur is not satisfied with his share. The Prince tells his admonishing father that he will redeem himself in battle. Troops are mobilized, and the armies meet at Shrewsbury. The rebels are depleted: Glendower’s forces are not ready and N@rthumiberland falls sick; Hotspur sees greater honour in the longer odds, WGreester only greater risk. In the parleys before battle, the Prince offers to settle things in single combat with Hotspur, but Worcester and WerniGn, knowing that the King will never trust them again, decide to keep this from Hotspur. In the battle, many of the King’s troops are dressed in bis colours, and are killed in…
