What's he that wishes? So my cousin Westmoreland No cousin. For if we are marked to die we are enough to do our country loss. And if to live, the fewer men, the greater the share of honour God's will. I pray thee wish not one man more by jove, I'm not covetous of 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 that I am the most offending soul alive Faith fair cause Wish not another man from England for I would not lose so great in honour as to have one man more rather proclaim it through my host that he that hath no stomach for this fight let him depart. His passport will 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 today is called the feast of Crispian and he that outlives this day and comes safe home will stand a tiptoe when this day is named and rouse him at the name Crispian. He that lives this day and sees old age will yearly on the vigil, feast his neighbours and say tomorrow is Saint Crispin's. Then shall he strip his sleeves and show his scars and say these wounds? Had I 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 their mouths household words be in their flowing cups. Freshly remembered this story shall the good man teach His son and Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by from this day until the ending of the world. But we in it shall be remembered. We few we happy few we band of brothers for he to day who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother Be he now so vile today will gentle his condition And gentlemen in England Now Abed will think themselves accursed that they were not here and hold their manhood cheap Whilst any speaks that fought with us on Crispin's Day
