I we see the beginning, God knows whither we shall see the end or no. But the king hath a heavy reckoning to make, If his cause be not good: when all those souls Whose bodies shall be slaughtered here, Shall join together at the latter day, And say I died at such a place. Some swearing: Some their wives rawly left: Some leaving their children poor behind them. Now if his cause be bade, I think it will be a grievous matter to him. Mass yowl pay him then, 'tis a great displeasure That and elder gun, can do against a cannon, Or a subject against a monarch. Yowl never take his word again, your a nasse go. Why let it be a quartell if thou wilt. Here is my glove, which if ever I see in thy hat, I'll challenge thee, and strike thee. Thou darest as well be hanged.

So hath he sworn the Like to me. Under Captain Gower. I will my Lord. Do you hear you sir? do you know this glove? Sir I know this, and thus I challenge it. And it please your Majesty, that was my glove. He that I gave it too in the night, Promised me to wear it in his hat: I promised to strike him if he did. I met that Gentleman, with my glove in his hat, And I think I have be as good as my word. My Liege, all offences come from the heart: Never came any from mine to offend your Majesty. You appeared to me as a common man: Witness the night, your garments, your lowliness, And whatsoever you received under that habit, I beseech your Majesty impute it to your own fault And not mine.

Plot summary
Plot — Henry the Fifth
Faced with the prospect of parliamentary legislation to sequester church lands, the Bishop of Canterbury encourages King Henry V to consider his claim to the French throne: he demonstrates that the Salic law debarring succession through the female line does not apply to France, and promises the church's financial support for a war. The Dauphin hears of Henry's ambitions and sends him a mocking gift of tennis balls; annoyed by the suggestion tl1at he should go away and play, Henry gathers his troops. The French bribe three noblemen to assassinate him before he leaves England, but he discovers the plot and has the traitors put to death. The French prepare for battle, but the Dauphin scornfully underestimates Henry. Exeter, sent as ambassador to the French King, demands surrender and delivers to the Dauphin Henry's personal contempt. The French offer a few dukedoms and a marriage alliance if Henry will withdraw. He considers this inadequate, and attacks Harfleur. The Dauphin and his troops fail to arrive in time to relieve the town, so its Governor surrenders to Henry. Exeter is left in command while Henry takes his disease-ridden troops back to winter in Calais, but the French force a battle en route at Agincourt. The night before, the French anticipate victory over the bedraggled English. Henry tours his army and listens to their worries about the battle. He quarrels with one of his soldiers, Williams, and they agree to settle their differences after their battle: they will know one another by the gloves they exchange. The French offer Henry the chance to surrender, but he refuses and battle ensues. The English do well, but when the French regroup for a new assault, Henry orders his troops to kill their prisoners. The French attack the baggage-train and kill the boys who are guarding it. The English are victorious, with remarkably few casualties. Henry persuades Fluellen to wear Williams's glove, claiming it is a battle trophy which will be challenged only by a traitor; the n-vo soldiers are about to fight when the King intervenes and reveals the truth. Henry later agrees a peace with France, is adopted as heir to the French throne, and marries Princess Catherine. In a subsidiary action, Henry's former lowlife associates do less well. Rejected by the King, Falstaff dies, broken-hearted. Pistol, Nim, and Bardolph join the expedition to France, accompanied by Falstaff's boy. Bardolph and Nim are hanged for theft, and the boy killed in the French attack on…
