Quotes 

• Henry IV : Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

• Henry IV : Let there be no noise, my gentle friends; unless, some dull and favorable hand, will whisper music to my weary spirit.

• Henry IV : How many thousands of my poorest subjects are at this hour asleep? Oh sleep, oh gentle sleep, nature's soft nurse. How have I frighted thee, that thou no more would weigh my eyelids down, and steep my senses in forgetfulness?

• Henry IV : Where is the crown? Who took it from my pillow?

• Henry IV : My Harry, be it thy course to busy giddy minds with foreign quarrels; that action, hence borne out, may waste the memory of the former days. More would I, but my lungs are wasted so that strength of speech is utterly denied me. How I came by the crown, Oh God forgive, And grant it may with thee in true peace live.

  [He dies] 

• Henry IV : The crown! Set me the crown, upon my pillow, here.
