Agincourt is one of the most instantly and vividly visualized of all epic passages in English history…. It is a victory of the weak over the strong, of the common soldier over the mounted knight, of resolution over bombast…. It is also a story of slaughter-yard behaviour and of outright atrocity.

Sir John Keegan, The Face of Battle

…there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcasses; and there is none end of their corpses: they stumble upon their corpses.

Nahum 3.3
