His use of military expressions, customs, and ideas is discussed, with insights into how the plays comment upon military incidents and personalities of the Elizabethan era, and how warfare was presented on the Elizabethan stage. Entries include 'alarum', 'battery', 'ensign', 'kern', 'martial law', 'sentinel', 'Turk', 'vaward'.
