Question

Read this excerpt from the prologue of Shakespeare’s play Henry V, in which King Henry is referred to as Harry.

A kingdom for a stage, princes to act
And monarchs to behold the swelling scene!
Then should the warlike Harry, like himself,
Assume the port of Mars; and at his heels,
Leash'd in like hounds, should famine, sword and fire
Crouch for employment.
