Note 58* — FIRST DISCOURSE (continued 2)
A. R. (Alfred Richard) Allinson translation
[58] P. 98:
◆An allusion to the demon who threw to the ground the archangel Saint Michael, and who was represented on the collar of the order. It is rather difficult to know of which lady Brantôme is speaking here: the collar of Saint Michael had been given to so many people that it was called “the collar for all animals.” (Castelnau, Mémoires, I., p. 363.)
