Originally entitled Jubilee Overture, Leigh later renamed it Overture (Agincourt) when it was broadcast two years later, on the occasion of the coronation of King George VI.
The title page of the full score bears this inscription:

Give him good life, and good ending
That we with mirth may savely sing
