God
and his angels guard your sacred throne,
And
make you long become it!
-Archbishop of Canterbury
King Henry The Fifth Act
I, scene ii, line 8
Here is a fairly short consideration for the day. This is
the Archbishop’s greeting to the king. Pure and simple. The archbishop has just
entered the room and, no, he can’t just say ‘hello your highness’. He’s got to
say this. It seems a bit overly obsequious, doesn’t it?
I'm pretty sure God and his angels are in this picture somewhere.
