Then the lords and knights prepared all things necessarie for their en|terprise, and shipped there horsses and harnesse, and did so much by iourneie, that they came to Paris at the end of October, which were hartilie welcomed of the king and the Dolphin: but most of all of the French queene which then laie at saint Denise, and was not yet crowned nor entered into Paris. The Dolphin desired the duke of Suffolke and the lord marquesse Dorset, to be two of his immediat aids, which thereto assented.

He that put his name vnder the golden target should run with the sharpe speares and fight with sharpe swords. They that put their names to the blacke shield, should fight on foot with speares and swords for the one hand. And he that touched the taw|nie shield should cast a speare on foot with a target on his arme, and after to fight with a two hand sword. On this arch aboue stood the armes of the king & the queene, and beneath them stood the armes of the Dol|phin and his aids, and vnderneath stood the foure scut|chions that you haue heard of, and vnder them all the armes and names of such as set their names to anie of the said foure scutchions.
