The Battle of Agincourt

France, 25th October 1415

 

We few, we happy few, we band of brothers

For he today that sheds his blood with me

Shall be my brother, be he ne'er so vile

This day shall gentle his condition

And gentlemen in England now-a-bed

Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here

And hold their manhood cheap while any speaks

That fought with us upon St. Crispin's Day

(Henry V by William Shakespeare)
