Re: [madmarthafics] A little doubt...

I'm unaware of any significance in the fic as I've not read it, but

"Cry God for England, Harry and Saint George"

is a line from The Life of King Henry the Fifth by Shakespeare.

You can read the scene here. The line is at the very end.

Hi! I joined this group a long time ago because I'd read some of your
fics on Fanfiction.net and was very interested in your other works.
Some of them - the Auror and the Lodger series for example - are my
long-standing favourites, so I'd like to thank you for that :)
The thing is, I was inactive in the fandom for a long while, and when
I checked in on the group today I immediately started rereading CoP.
After all of these years I'm still wondering about the meaning of the
expression 'Cry God for Harry', though. I searched on Google and all I
got was Shakespeare, St. George and England. And I still haven't
understood. So could you (or someone) please explain it to me? Have
mercy on the poor foreigner... (LOL)

Thank you in advance!
