Note 8 — Chapter VII · REIGNS OF CHARLES VI. AND CHARLES VII. 1380 TO 1461.

Frances Cashel Hoey translation

“My book of hours, those of Notre-Dame, I must have, And it shall be such as beseemeth noble dame of high lineage. Of subtle workmanship, gold and azure, rich and rare; Well ordered and well shapen; Covered in fine cloth, or in wrought gold, And when it is opened, to be closed again With two golden clasps,” &c.
