Ils �taient trois. Trois amis, trois damoiseaux qui avaient appris � se battre ensemble pour devenir chevalier. H�las, Azincourt devait briser ce r�ve. L'un y fut �gorg� avec d'autres prisonniers sur ordre d'Henry V, et les deux autres partirent comme prisonniers en Angleterre. Leur ran�on ne fut jamais pay�e.

Or, un beau jour du joli mois de mai de l'an de gr�ce 1425, dix ans apr�s Azincourt, une noble dame, �pouse du bras droit du pr�sident du parlement Philippe de Morvilliers, fervent soutien de la cause anglaise � Paris, vint demander au clerc Edward Holmes de rechercher un chanteur de rue qu'elle a aper�u et qui portait sur sa cotte une fleur de mouron rouge.

Or cette fleur, Gower Watson l'avait vue sur les cottes d'armes de trois �cuyers prisonniers apr�s la bataille d'Azincourt. Des damoiseaux que le duc de Gloucester lui avait ordonn� de tuer comme la plupart des prisonniers de la bataille. Ce qu'il avait refus�.

A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
