En 10: homework for Friday, 19 Nov

Today we worked on finding information on key quotations from Henry V, Acts 1-3.  We found the following:

a) who's speaking?
b) who is he/she speaking to?
c) what's happening at that point in the play? (tell what's happening in the widest sense - do not translate the quotation).
d) what is the significance (most will tell us more about a particular character, OR they will advance the plot in some way).

EX 1:
a) Who: Archbishop of Canterbury
b) To whom: The Bishop of Ely
c) What: The churchmen are discussing a tax that will make the Church poor.
d) Significance: This scene gives the churchmen reason to try to convince Henry to go to war in order to deflect attention away from the Church.

PLEASE FINISH FINDING THE FOUR POINTS OF INFORMATION FOR ALL OF THE QUOTATIONS IN ACTS 1 AND 2.
