1:04:01
nothing taken but paid for,
1:04:06
none of the French upbraided
or abused in disdainful language.
1:04:13
For when lenity and cruelty
play for a kingdom,
1:04:18
the gentler gamester
is the soonest winner.
1:04:48
Thus says my king,
"Say thou to Harry of England,
1:04:51
"though we seemed dead,
we did but sleep.
1:04:53
"Tell him we could have
rebuked him at Harflew.
1:04:57
"Now we speak,
and our voice is imperial.
1:05:00
"England shall
repent his folly.
1:05:03
"Bid him, therefore,
consider of his ransom...
1:05:05
"which must proportion
the losses we have borne...
1:05:08
"which in weight to re-answer
his pettiness would bow under.
1:05:12
"To this add defiance,
and tell him, for conclusion,
1:05:16
"he hath betrayed
his followers...
1:05:18
whose condemnation
is pronounced."
1:05:22
So far my king and master,
so much my office.
1:05:28
- What is thy name?
- Montjoy.
1:05:31
Thou dost thy office fairly.
1:05:34
Turn thee back, and tell
thy king I do not seek him now,
1:05:38
but could be willing to march on
to Calais without impeachment.
1:05:43
Go, therefore,
tell thy master here I am.
1:05:46
My ransom is this
frail and worthless trunk,
1:05:50
my army but a weak
and sickly guard.
1:05:53
Yet, God before,
tell him we will come on,
1:05:56
though France himself and such
another neighbor stand in our way.
