Koning Hendrik de Vijfde by William Shakespeare

"Koning Hendrik de Vijfde" by William Shakespeare is a history play written around 1599. It follows the young King Henry V of England as he invades France, claiming the throne through ancestral right. After the French Dauphin insults him with a mocking gift, Henry leads his army across the Channel to besiege Harfleur. Vastly outnumbered at Agincourt, Henry must rally his weary soldiers for a battle that will determine England's fate and his own legacy as king. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
