I surprised me when I first heard Henry V, when they discover the damage done behind the lines by French troops,

"Kill the poys [boys] and the luggage! 'tis expressly
against the law of arms: 'tis as arrant a piece of
knavery..."

Whenever I hears a presentation of this play, almost every actor as Fluellen pushes "and the LUGgage!"
Makes it sound as if Fluellen is more distraught over the luggage than the slaughter of the luggage-boys.
Well, perhaps it was Samsonite.
