You have broken your pledged word, sir.

Did you not promise me when you set out that you would abide the issue of the Bourbon's battle before you took arms?
Yet I have heard of you swashbuckling in that very fight at Rouvray, and only the miracle of God brought you out with an unbroken neck." "The Bourbon never fought," said de Laval sullenly.

"Only Stewart and his Scots stood up against Fastolf's spears.

You would not have me stay idle in face of such odds.

I was not the only French knight who charged.
There was La Hire and de Saintrailles and the Bastard himself." "Yet you broke your word," was the girl's cold answer.
