About This Quote

Devlin is upset that Alex didn't follow him into the tavern. He says he is glad that Alex "is not an Englishman" and complains that the English lack gallantry. He then asks Alex to "Walk me to the door?" This is a reference to a scene in Shakespeare's Henry V where the prince asks his companions to walk him to the door after the battle. Devlin is saying he is glad that Alex doesn't have to fake bravery like most Englishmen do.
