A kingdom for a stage, princes to act
And monarchs to behold the swelling scene!
Then should the warlike Harry, like himself,
Assume the port of Mars; and at his heels,
Leash'd in like hounds, should famine, sword and fire
Crouch for employment.

The line that describes the purpose of this excerpt of the prologue is:

It states the conflict that occurs at the end of the play.

Explanation:

The play is about the war that Henry the 6th has to fight to keep his kingdom and his reckless campaigns in the French territories  he believed he had natural claim on like previous kings.

This play was in a way symbolic of the waning influence of the dynasty that Henry VI was from and the war would prove to be the nail in the coffin.

This prologue sets up the major pieces of the conflict very well here only by setting up the war and the eventual losses of the person faced.
