    This day shall gentle his condition:
    And gentlemen in England now a-bed
    Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
    And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
    That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.    (HenryV)

    This is the closest quote I could find for you from Shakespeare's "Henry V" spoken by King Henry before the battle of Agincourt!
