Henry V
The still young king of England , intending to tax the english church, is sent off to war by the bishops to enforce the (doubtful) claim to France . The King, thus sure of devine blessing for his cause, wages war on the French all too proud in overpowing strength. After the Battle of Agincourt, the French King has to yield his daughter as a peace offering. In a bitter satire, this political marriage is then portrayed as the happy ending joining the two recent lovers.
