CHORUS ANS✔✔ Expresses his desire for an appropriate muse, begs pardon
for the unworthiness of the stage , and asks the audience to use its imagination
(Act 1, Intro, Lines 1 - 36)
*Lines 1-4 shown*
Oh, for a muse of fire that would ascend
The brightest heaven of invention!
A kingdom for a stage, princes to act,
And monarchs to behold the swelling scene!
ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY ANS✔✔ Recognizes Henry's newfound
maturity:
The breath no sooner left his father's body
But that his wildness, mortified in him,
Seemed to die too. Yea, at that very moment
Consideration like an angel came
And whipped th' offending Adam out of him,
Leaving his body as a paradise
T' envelop and contain celestial spirits.
ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY ANS✔✔ Reveals his plan to encourage
Henry to go to war with France:
,Upon our spiritual convocation
And in regard of causes now in hand,
Which I have opened to his Grace at large,
As touching France—to give a greater sum
Than ever at one time the clergy yet
Did to his predecessors part withal.
HENRY ANS✔✔ Warns the Bishop about encouraging him toward ware and
declares that he expects them to speak the truth:
Therefore take heed how you impawn our person,
How you awake our sleeping sword of war.
We charge you in the name of God, take heed,
For never two such kingdoms did contend
Without much fall of blood, whose guiltless drops
Are every one a woe, a sore complaint
'Gainst him whose wrong gives edge unto the swords
That make such waste in brief mortality.
Under this conjuration, speak, my lord,
For we will hear, note, and believe in heart
That what you speak is in your conscience washed
As pure as sin with baptism.
,ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY ANS✔✔ Comes up with a plan to
assuage Henry's concerns about being attacked by Scotland while the army is
away in France.
Without defeat. Therefore to France, my liege!
Divide your happy England into four,
Whereof take you one quarter into France,
And you withal shall make all Gallia shake.
If we, with thrice such powers left at home,
Cannot defend our own doors from the dog,
Let us be worried, and our nation lose
The name of hardiness and policy.
HENRY ANS✔✔ Declares his absolute resolution to defeat France or die
trying:
Call in the messengers sent from the Dauphin.
Now are we well resolved, and by God's help
And yours, the noble sinews of our power,
France being ours, we'll bend it to our awe
Or break it all to pieces. Or there we'll sit,
Ruling in large and ample empery
O'er France and all her almost kingly dukedoms,
Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn,
Tombless, with no remembrance over them.
, Either our history shall with full mouth
Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave,
Like Turkish mute, shall have a tongueless mouth,
Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph.
CHORUS ANS✔✔ Explains that the men of England put aside other
concerns to prepare for war. Reveals the conspiracy of Scroop, Cambridge, and
Gray.
Now all the youth of England are on fire,
And silken dalliance in the wardrobe lies.
Now thrive the armorers, and honor's thought
Reigns solely in the breast of every man.
They sell the pasture now to buy the horse,
NYM ANS✔✔ Speaks mostly nonsense in his threats to fight Pistol over Nell
when the time is right.
For my part, I care not. I say little, but when time shall serve, there shall be
smiles; but that shall be as it may. I dare not fight, but I will wink and hold out
mine iron. It is a simple one, but what though? It will toast cheese, and it will
endure cold as another man's sword will, and there's an end.
NYM ANS✔✔ I cannot tell. Things must be as they may. Men may sleep,
and they may have their throats about them at that time, and some say knives
have edges. It must be as it may. Though patience be a tired mare, yet she will
plod. There must be conclusions. Well, I cannot tell.
