Note 592 — BOOK THE FIFTH. (continued 2)
Reading edition
“François de la Sauvagière, a very valiant man-at-arms, charged the Duke of Guelders so roughly with a lance, as he was drawing off his men, that he bore him to the ground. Notwithstanding this, he defended himself as best he could, like a bold and valiant knight, full of virtuous courage; but it was of no avail. He received two wounds in his head, and another in his throat, and finally his death blow. Then he shouted, ‘Guelders!’ and spoke never a word more.” Molinet, ii. 68. This was in June or July, 1477.
