FLUELLEN


Meaning of FLUELLEN in English

Welsh officer in King Henry's army in Shakespeare's Henry V. Captain Fluellen is a valiant but slightly ridiculous figure with a hot temper and a thick Welsh accent. His quarrel with Macmorris and Pistol provides much-needed comic relief, especially when he forces Pistol to eat the leek he wears in honour of St. David.
