Taralynn's summary of H5 Act 1

Henry V 1.1 (Taraylynn Stockert)


Archbishop Canterbury and Bishop Ely discuss a new bill that they don't want passed. This bill would take land and money away from the church. Archbishop Canterbury comes up with a plan to raise money for a war, invading France, to distract King Henry V from passing the bill. King Henry V has a meeting with the Ambassador of France. The Archbishop and Bishop head to this meeting so they can join. The king has his advisers and two brothers with him. He asks the Archbishop why he has rightful heir to the throne. The Archbishop explains. The Ambassador of France laughs at Henry's claim and leaves a gift of tennis balls, which represent his youthfulness.
