ote IV.21: _----gentle his condition:_] This day shall
advance him to the rank of a gentleman.

King Henry V. inhibited any person but such as had a right by
inheritance, or grant, to assume coats of arms, except those who
fought with him at the battle of Agincourt; and, I think, these
last were allowed the chief seats of honour at all feasts and
publick meetings. --TOLLET.]

[Footnote IV.22: _----bravely in their battles set._] Bravely, for
gallantly.]

[Footnote IV.23: _Bid them achieve me,_] i.e., gain, or obtain
me.]

[Footnote IV.24: _----warriors for the +working-day+:_] We are
soldiers but coarsely dressed; we have not on our holiday
apparel.]

[Footnote IV.25: _----our +guilt+_] i.e., golden show, superficial
gilding. The word is obsolete.]

SCENE IV.--ANOTHER PART OF THE FIELD OF BATTLE.

_Alarums. Enter DAUPHIN, ORLEANS, BOURBON, CONSTABLE, RAMBURES,
and Others, hastily, and in confusion, L.H._

_Dau._ (C.) All is confounded, all!
Reproach and everlasting shame
Sits mocking in our plumes.

[_Alarums, L._

_Con._ Why, all our ranks are broke.

_Dau._ O perdurable shame![26]--let's stab ourselves.
Be these the wretches that we play'd at dice for?

_Orl._ (L.C.) Is this the king we sent to for his ransom?

_Dau._ Shame, and eternal shame, nothing but shame!
Let us die in honor: Once more back again.

_Con._ (C.) Disorder, that hath spoil'd us, friend us now!
Let us in heaps go offer up our lives
Unto these English, or else die with fame.

_Dau._ (R.C.) We are enough, yet living in the field,
To smother up the English in our throngs,
If any order might be thought upon.

_Con._ The devil take order now! I'll to the throng:
Let life be short; else shame will be too long.

_Alarums._

[_Exeunt L.H._

[Footnote IV.26: _O +perdurable+ shame!_] _Perdurable_ is
lasting.]

SCENE V.--THE FIELD OF AGINCOURT AFTER THE BATTLE.

[_The bodies of the DUKE OF YORK(L) and EARL OF SUFFOLK are borne
across the stage by soldiers._

_Trumpets sound._

_Enter KING HENRY with a part of the English forces; WARWICK,
BEDFORD, GLOSTER, EXETER, and others, L.H._

_K. Hen._ (C.) I was not angry since I came to France,
Until this instant.--Take a trumpet, herald;
Ride thou unto the horsemen on yon hill:(M)
If they will fight with us, bid them come down,
