The way the English praise
'prince Hal' almost makes you forget
how their royalty descends from those
who killed his line.
To Elizabeth I and James I
Shakespeare wrote his plays,
who owed everything to Edward IV,
and Edward he made very sure
that no seed of Henry V would
remain on this God-forsaken Earth.
Remember, when inscribing
her line, it was York, not Lancaster,
which Elizabeth claimed.
Alas, champion of Agincourt.
