You are so right and I hang my head in shame.  I knew that, which 
makes it even sadder...  I think I need to put my lit refernces in 
the pensive and get them all untangled!  So, death of Falstaff -- 
maybe an HP connection in some future post.  Hanging of dear red 
nosed Bardolph -- topic of this thread and still a very 'nice' 
dramatic mement as Henry realizes he must move past his happy, 
childish, self-centered ways and be a leader.  Will the same 
transition be required of young Harry?  (I sort of hope not, but it 
is fun to think about.)
