Home Shakespeare The Life of Henry the Fifth |
O diable!ORLEANS
O seigneur! le jour est perdu, tout est perdu!DAUPHIN
Mort de ma vie! all is confounded, all!A short alarum
Reproach and everlasting shame
Sits mocking in our plumes. O merchante fortune!
Do not run away.
Why, all our ranks are broke.DAUPHIN
O perdurable shame! let's stab ourselves.ORLEANS
Be these the wretches that we play'd at dice for?
Is this the king we sent to for his ransom?BOURBON
Shame and eternal shame, nothing but shame!Constable
Let us die in honour: once more back again;
And he that will not follow Bourbon now,
Let him go hence, and with his cap in hand,
Like a base pander, hold the chamber-door
Whilst by a slave, no gentler than my dog,
His fairest daughter is contaminated.
Disorder, that hath spoil'd us, friend us now!ORLEANS
Let us on heaps go offer up our lives.
We are enow yet living in the fieldBOURBON
To smother up the English in our throngs,
If any order might be thought upon.
The devil take order now! I'll to the throng:Exeunt
Let life be short; else shame will be too long.
