that_o by_o the_o same_o advantage_n none_o be_v take_v against_o we_o by_o our_o foe_n to_o our_o disgrace_n and_o we_o thereby_o constrain_v to_o leave_v the_o place_n the_o second_o be_v that_o

courageous_o in_o battle_n to_o endure_v and_o to_o our_o foe_n eternal_a shame_n procure_v the_o three_o and_o last_o be_v that_o we_o strive_v to_o gain_v the_o fame_n and_o name_v our_o ancestor_n have_v hold_v and_o valiant_o the_o victory_n obtain_v against_o our_o foe_n and_o drive_v they_o out_o the_o field_n for_o if_o by_o knighthood_n through_o our_o hardiness_n we_o vanquish_v they_o and_o put_v they_o to_o distress_n we_o win_v not_o only_o praise_v and_o high_a renown_n which_o to_o a_o valiant_a mind_n be_v chief_a bliss_n but_o if_o we_o once_o may_v enter_v in_o the_o town_n
