Now
entertain conjecture of a time
When creeping murmur and the poring dark
Fills the wide vessel of the universe.
From camp to camp, through the foul womb of night,
The hum of either army stilly sounds,
That the fixed sentinels almost receive
The secret whispers of each other's watch;
Fire answers fire, and through their paly flames
Each battle sees the other's umbered face;
Steed threatens steed, in high and boastful neighs
Piercing the night's dull ear, and from the tents
The armourers, accomplishing the knights,
With busy hammers closing rivets up,
Give dreadful note of preparation. Henry V, 4. Prologue

The greater therefore should our courage be. Henry V, 4. 1

A lad of life, an imp of fame,
Of parents good, of fist most valiant:

I love the lovely bully. Henry
V, 4. 1
