Hoy, fiesta de los santos hermanos mártires Crispin y Crispiniano, no está de más recordar la arenga al combate que Shakespeare escribió en Enrique V ante la batalla de Agincourt. En YouTube está la VOS de la versión de Kenneth Branagh (1989):
St. Crispen's Day Speech:
... He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when this day is nam'd,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say 'To-morrow is Saint Crispian.'
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,
And say 'These wounds I had on Crispian's day.' ...
