HENRY V AND THE KING OF FRANCE

SONGS FROM THE BALCONY


It's a glorious sunny day and out on the balcony Isobel and Jim play "Henry V and the King of France" in spirited fashion. Written in the early 15th Century this song presents a highly exaggerated version of Henry V goodness and triumph during the battle of Agincourt. (Child 164; Roud 251)
