What is the name of the character who delivers the “St. Crispin’s Day” speech? The speech is delivered by King Henry V.

Henry gives the speech on the eve of the Battle of Agincourt in Shakespeare’s history play Henry V. The battle takes place on 25 October 1415, the feast day of Saints Crispin and Crispinian. Shakespeare presents the English army as severely outnumbered, allowing Henry to transform an apparent disadvantage into a source of pride.

Rather than wishing for more soldiers, Henry says that those present will share a lasting honor. He imagines future veterans celebrating the anniversary together and remembering themselves as a close-knit “band of brothers.” The speech therefore links military courage with memory, identity, and storytelling.

The speech is sometimes confused with a generic patriotic quotation or attributed to another English king. Its speaker is specifically Henry V, not Henry IV, whose reign and political struggles form the background to the play. The passage appears in Act 4, Scene 3, shortly before the battle begins.
