Question

In his "St. Crispin's Speech," Henry V's main argument is:

a) the story of this battle will be told over and over again
b) if you live, you'll be proud to have been part of it.
c) if you die, you'll be honored and remembered on this day.
d) none of the above

Answer 1

c) if you die, you'll be honored and remembered on this day.

Answer 2

c) if you die, you'll be honored and remembered on this day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The St. Crispin's Day speech comes from Shakespeare's play Henry V. In this play, Henry V gives a speech to his troops before the battle of Act IV. The English troops were vastly outnumbered by the French, and the battle seemed extremely difficult. However, Shakespeare tells his men not to despair. He tries to remind them of other times when the English have inflicted great defeats upon the French. He also tells them that, even if they die, they will be honoured and remembered on this day.
