Honor and Glory--King Henry V has put aside the indiscretion of youth and taken the throne upon his father's death. Faced with insurrection and a war with France Henry must become a strong king or perish. Once more unto the breach dear friends once more;Or close the wall up with our English dead.In peace there's nothing so becomes a manAs modest stillness and humility: But when the blast of war blows in our ears Then imitate the action of the tiger;Stiffen the sinews summon up the blood Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;Let pry through the portage of the headLike the brass cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
