that_o very_o bare_a name_n of_o some_o valiant_a person_n overcome_v whole_a army_n i_o can_v but_o blame_v you_o of_o all_o sort_n which_o shall_v make_v choice_n of_o banner_n which_o you_o call_v

nor_o discern_v or_o know_v one_o banner_n or_o standard_n from_o another_o be_v the_o same_o never_o so_o large_a so_o that_o except_o it_o be_v to_o be_v make_v in_o a_o pedigree_n or_o descent_n to_o lock_v up_o in_o a_o evidence_n chest_n thereby_o to_o show_v man_n title_n to_o their_o land_n or_o the_o alliance_n and_o kindred_n of_o their_o house_n otherwise_o as_o i_o say_v i_o see_v

esteem_v well_o of_o to_o be_v bear_v for_o that_o a_o prince_n or_o noble_a man_n make_v challenge_n or_o title_n to_o any_o country_n for_o which_o he_o be_v force_v to_o make_v war_n before_o he_o

which_o in_o reason_n and_o conscience_n owe_v he_o duty_n and_o obedience_n to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v thereby_o be_v the_o soon_o induce_v to_o submit_v themselves_o to_o their_o true_a and_o lawful_a sovereign_n as_o his_o subject_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n as_o i_o take_v it_o king_n edward_n the_o three_o and_o his_o valiant_a son_n devise_v and_o show_v forth_o the_o arm_n of_o france_n and_o england_n quarter_v together_o and_o although_o my_o author_n say_v that_o jaques_n show_v dartvell_n be_v the_o first_o deviser_n thereof_o yet_o will_v i_o not_o believe_v otherwise_o but_o that_o the_o principal_a reason_n that_o lead_v the_o king_n thereto_o be_v to_o make_v know_v the_o justness_n of_o his_o title_n to_o that_o kingdom_n where_o he_o than_o intend_v to_o make_v
