By the time Falstaff had finished his tale… |

|
| 20 |
But Falstaff's plans for their evening's entertain |

Then Hal and Falstaff swapped parts… |
|
|
| 22 |
Their play was interrupted by the arrival… |

Henry IV, Part II |

What is the gross sum that I owe thee? |

The cunning Falstaff talked very sweetly… |
|
|
| 35 |
You whoreson candlemine you… |

Hal was sure his father was dead… |

'Tis Joan, not we, by whom the day is won… |

Tut tut, here is a mannerly forbearance… |

Who craves a parlay with the Burgundy? |
|
|

Unaware that he had been deserted… |

Come hither, you that would be… |

With Burgundy on their side… |
|
|
| 23 |
A heavy battle followed… |

| 25 |
So father and son fought valiantly… |
|
|

The French could hardly believe… |
|

Now, ye familiar spirits… |

Be what thou wilt… |

|
| 44 |
I know their complot is to have my life… |
|
|
| 45 |
The angry Lords had Gloucester dragged away. |
|
|
| 46 |
My brain, more busy than the labouring spider… |

That night, the Duke of Gloucester was… |
