The French camp.
[Enter the DAUPHIN, ORLEANS, RAMBURES, and others]
ORLEANS
The sun doth gild our armor up, my lords.
DAUPHIN
Monte cheval: My horse, varlet laquais: ha.
ORLEANS
Oh brave spirit.
DAUPHIN
Via les eaux et la terre.
ORLEANS
Rien puis l'air et la feu.
DAUPHIN
Ciel, cousin Orleans. Now my lord constable?
[Enter Constable]
CONSTABLE
,
, ,
, ,
Hark how | our steeds,| for pres|ent serv|ice
neigh.
DAUPHIN
,
, ,
, ,
Mount them,| and make | incis|ion in | their
hides,
, ,
, ,
,
That their / hot blood | may spin | in Eng|lish
eyes,
,
, , 2
, ,
And doubt | them with | super|fluous cour|age:
ha.
RAMBURES
,
, ,
, ,
What, will | you have | them weep | our hors|es'
blood?
,
, ,
, 2 ,
How shall | we then | behold | their na|tural
tears?
[Enter Messenger]
MESSENGER
, ,
, ,
,
The Eng|lish are | embat|tled, you / French
peers.
CONSTABLE
, ,
, , ,
To horse | you gal|lant prin|ces, straight | to
horse.
, ,
, ,
,
Do but | behold | yon poor | and starv|ed band,
, ,
, , ,
And your / fair show | shall suck | away | their
souls,
,
, , ,
,
Leaving | them but | the shales | and husks | of
men.
,
, , ,
,
There is | not work | enough | for all | our
hands,
T T
. T ,
, ,
Scarce blood enough | in all | their sick|ly
veins,
, , ,
, ,
To give | each^nak|ed curt|le-axe | a stain.
, ,
, ,
,
That our / French gal|lants shall | today |
draw^out,
,
, ,
, 2 , 2
And sheathe | for lack | of sport.| Let us but |
blow on them,
, ,
, 2 , ,
The vap|or of | our val|or will ore|turn them.
, ,
2 , , ,
'Tis po|sitive | against^all | excep|tions,
lords,
,
, 2 , ,
, ->
That our | super|fluous lack|eys, and | our
peas||ants,
, 2 ,
, , ,
Who | in unne|cessa|ry ac|tion swarm
, ,
, ,
,
About | our squares | of bat|tle, were | enow
, ,
, ,
,
To purge | this field | of such | a hild|ing foe;
, ,
, , ,
Though we | upon | this mount|ain's bas|is by,
,
, , ,
,
Took^stand | for id|le spe|cula|tion:
,
, , ,
,
But that | our hon|ors must / not. What's | to say?
, ,
, ,
,
A ve|ry lit|tle lit|tle let | us do,
, ,
, ,
,
And all | is done:| then let | the trump|ets
sound
, ,
, , ,
The tuck|et son|ance, and | the note | to mount:
, ,
, ,
,
For our | approach | shall so | much^dare | the
field,
,
, , ,
,
That Eng|land shall / couch down | in fear,| and
yield.
[Enter GRANDPRE]
GRANDPRE
,
, ,
, ,
Why do | you stay | so long,| my lords | of
France?
,
, 2 , ,
,
Yond^is|land car|rions, des|perate of | their
bones,
, ,
, ,
,
Ill-fav/oredly | become | the morn|ing field:
,
, ,
, ,
Their rag|ged curt|ains poor|ly are / let loose,
, ,
, ,
,
And our / air shakes | them pass|ing scorn|fully,
, T T T
2 , ,
Big^Mars | seems bankrupt | in their beg|gared
host,
, ,
, ,
,
And faint|ly through | a rus|ty beav|er peeps.
, ,
, ,
,
The horse|men sit | like^fix|ed cand|lesticks,
, ,
,
, ,
With torch-|staves in | their hand:| and their /
poor jades
, ,
, ,
,
Lob^down | their heads,| dropping | the hides |
and hips:
. T T T
, , ,
The gum down-rop|ing from their // pale-dead eyes,
, 2 T T
T , ,
And in their | pale dull mouths | the gim|mal bit
T T
. T T
T . T ,
Lies foul with chewed | grass, still and
mo|tionless.
, ,
, ,
,
And their | exec|utors,| the knav|ish crows,
,
, ,
, ,
Fly ore | them all,| impa|tient for | their hour.
,
, , ,
,
Descrip|tion can|not suit | itself | in words,
, ,
, ,
x
To dem|onstrate | the life | of such | a battle,
, , , ,
,
In life | so life|less, as | it shows | itself.
CONSTABLE

, ___
They have | said their | prayers,
,

And they | stay for | death. (tri with
prev)
DAUPHIN
,
, ,
, ,
Shall we | go send | them din|ners, and / fresh
suits,
, ,
, , ,
And give | their fast|ing hors|es prov|ender,
,
, ,
And aft|er fight | with them?
CONSTABLE
, ,
, ,
I stay | but for | my guard:| on
<- ,
, ,
, , ,
To | the field,|| I will | the ban|ner from
| a
trump|et take,
, ,
, T T . T
And use | it for | my haste.| Come, come away,
, ,
, ,
,
The sun | is high,| and we | outwear | the day.
