How France and Frenchmen might be kept in awe,

[♦] And had his highness in his infancy

Crowned in Paris in despite of foes?

90 And shall these labours and these honours die?

Shall Henry’s conquest, Bedford’s vigilance,

Your deeds of war and all our counsel die?

O peers of England, shameful is this league!

Fatal this marriage, cancelling your fame,

95 Blotting your names from books of memory,

Razing the characters of your renown,
