And, in the administration of his law,

Whiles I was busy for the commonwealth,

Your highness pleasèd to forget my place,

The majesty and power of law and justice,

The image of the king whom I presented,

And struck me in my very seat of judgment;

Whereon, as an offender to your father,

I gave bold way to my authority,

And did commit you.

Shakespeare makes King Henry V recognize that Gascoigne was in the right.
