Question 480: Casting pearls before swine

Below is an excerpt from the introduction of one of the most well loved works of fiction ever produced.

"AS will be seen later on, __X___needs, not a preface, but a sequel, which I have supplied in its due place.

  The English have no respect for their language, and will not teach their children to speak it. They spell it so abominably that no man can teach himself what it sounds like. It is impossible for an Englishman to open his mouth without making some other Englishman hate or despise him. German and Spanish are accessible to foreigners: English is not accessible even to Englishmen. The reformer England needs today is a__________: that is why I have made such a one the hero."

Question 411 : The Ball's in The British Court.

Right ho!
I found this piece of verse, accompanying the description of an Anglo French Battle.
Shakespeare's a hint.
NOW, WHICH BATTLE IS BEING TALKED ABOUT?
You don't need to id the poet(no points for the poet), but do so if you're feeling generous.
"
'Twas in the year 1415,
That King Henry V and his team,
Crossed the channel and went to France,
To stand firm and defend their stance!
But victory was quite far from their sights,
As they were simply outnumbered by French Knights!

Even the most staunch of believers must think,
That it's time for the British army to sink!
But the Brits did have cause for celebration,
Since the knights were at a greater elevation.

Britain saw discipline as a good omen,
Although just a few hundred Yeomen.
The trumpets sounded,
The battle started!
When the Brits swore by George,
The knights began their charge!

The situation for Henry's men was dire,
With faint hope, the longbowmen fire.
As the French horse received its whip,
Due to wet ground, did it slip!
France, from the jaws of victory, snatched defeat,
Under any circumstances, a remarkable feat.
The Bows observed with glee,
As the remainder of the french army,
Began to flee!

For Britain, a time to revel,
The result, quite a marvel!
With the muddy hill playing spoil sport,
There ended the Battle of ______________
                                                                        "
