Aaron Vs. the Archbishop of Canterbury & the Bishop of Ely

Aaron from Titus Andronicus and Bishop of Canterbury and Bishop of Ely from Henry V play a similar role. They both created misunderstanding for their benefits.  It was Aaron who gave Chiron and Demetrius the idea to rape Lavinia, which we saw gave a horrible ending to Titus Andronicus. “The forest walks are wide and spacious, And many unfrequented plots are there, Fitted by kind for rape and villainy.”

Now if we look at Bishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Ely, they both don’t want the king to pass the bill. The bill would authorize the government to take a huge amount of money and land of the church. They both wants the money for themselves. So they encourage the king Henry V who is already thinking of invading France because he thinks he has a claim to the throne. Canterbury thinks that the war would distract the king and he will forget about the bill. Let see what kind of twists and turns and ending Henry V has.
