40. Henry IV Part 2 begins - Why is rumour here?

from Shakespeare Closely Read · host Mark Naftel

Rumor tells of a rebels' victory at Shrewsbury; the elder Percy learns otherwise.  The rebels are defeated and his son, Hotspur, lies cold in death. We see Falstaff complaining about others making jokes at his expense. " I am not only witty in myself, but the cause that wit is in other men." Video version of the play is currently at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keJ9vGZ1gL0 . New version from the Royal Sharkespeare Company. Very good.
