"This story shall the good man teach his son;
and Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by,
from this day to the ending of the world,
but we in it shall be remember’d;
We few, we happy few, we Band of Brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother;
be he ne’er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
and hold their manhood’s cheap
whiles any speaks that fought with us
upon Saint Crispin’s day."
--William Shakespeare’s,
King Henry V, Act IV, Scene III--
