The entire quote, BP and Obama

Here's the entire reference to Henry V I made in the last post. In it, I said he (Obama) would rue the day he demonized BP, for the impact would be severe on this country. Here is the quote:

And tell the pleasant Prince this mock of his
Hath turned his balls to gunstones, and his soul
Shall stand sore chargèd for the wasteful vengeance
That shall fly from them—for many a thousand widows
Shall this his mock mock out of their dear husbands,
Mock mothers from their sons, mock castles down;
. . .
But this lies all within the will of God,
To whom I do appeal,
So go in peace. Fare you well and tell the pleasant Prince, his jest will savour but a shallow wit,
when thousands weep
More than do laugh at it.
