The Life of King Henry V
William Shakespeare
A history play by William Shakespeare which follows life of King Henry V of England, focusing on events immediately before and after the Battle of Agincourt during the Hundred Years' War. The early scenes deal with the embarkation of Henry's fleet for France, and include a real-life incident in which the Earl of Cambridge and two others plotted to assassinate Henry at Southampton. When the Chorus reappears, he describes the country's dedication to the war effort - "They sell the pasture now to buy the horse." The chorus tells the audience, "We'll not offend one stomach with our play", a humorous reference to the fact that the scene of the play crosses the English Channel.
