[Northkeep] Old men forget - Yet all shall be forgot

[a a]

I didn't forget;I've been working on that speech for a few weeks now.I think I'm getting better at it.Here's the whole speech because I think it's worth reading:
 
KING HENRY V 
What's he that wishes so?
>My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin:
>If we are mark'd to die, we are enow
>To do our country loss; and if to live,
>The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
>God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
>By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,
>Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;
>It yearns me not if men my garments wear;
>Such outward things dwell not in my desires:
>But if it be a sin to covet honour,
>I am the most offending soul alive.
>No, faith, my coz, wish not a man from England:
>God's peace! I would not lose so great an honour
>As one man more, methinks, would share from me
>For the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more!
>Rather proclaim it, Westmoreland, through my host,
>That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
>Let him depart; his passport shall be made
>And crowns for convoy put into his purse:
>We would not die in that man's company
>That fears his fellowship to die with us.
>This day is called the feast of Crispian:
>He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
>Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
>And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
>He that shall live this day, and see old age,
>Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
>And say 'To-morrow is Saint Crispian:'
>Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
>And say 'These wounds I had on Crispin's day.'
>Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
>But he'll remember with advantages
>What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
>Familiar in his mouth as household words
>Harry the king, Bedford and Exeter,
>Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester,
>Be in their flowing cups freshly remember'd.
>This story shall the good man teach his son;
>And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by,
>From this day to the ending of the world,
>But we in it shall be remember'd;
>We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
>For he to-day 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 accursed they were not here,
>And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
>That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
>
>

Greetings,



Today is Saint Crispian's Day. On this day in 1415 Henry V led his English army to victory over the French the Battle of  Agincourt.
