Summary (from previous notes)
Part 2 includes some of the greatest moments in Shakespeare: the deathbed scene of the old King, when Hal contemplates the crown; and Hal's devastating rejection of Falstaff.
My notes:
The Henriad series continues with Henry IV Part Two. The original torrent of
this release has been running for four years on a different index and in a larger
and different file format. That index has ceased to operate and my content was lost. The recode here is to establish it on the new index.
Support this piece by adding it to your permanent bittorrent file shares for all to enjoy. And have your libraries and schools get the Globe releases.
