Table of Contents Act IV, Scene III Summary Dauphin has been joined by two mighty troops in Bordeaux. York is unable to go and help Talbot because he has not received his promised supply of horsemen from Somerset. Lucy pleads with York, to fly to Talbot’s aid. York is unable to do so and holds Somerset responsible. Lucy fears the fate that is going to befall Talbot and his son and realizes that dissension in English ranks is going to cost them everything that Henry V won. Notes Clever military strategy has given Dauphin the upper hand over Talbot. Talbot is trapped and needs help to fight the mighty forces of the French gathered together. York, who is at hand to help, cannot do so. The disaster, that the English King and Exeter feared, from the animosity between Somerset and York, is now upon them. Friction between the two noblemen has affected the smooth working of the English military. The consequence of Somerset’s spite for York has turned into a potentially fatal blow for Talbot.
