And Hongree, Sub-Lieutenant of Chassoores,

Were sent by Charles of France against the lines

Of our Sixth Henry (Fourteen twenty-nine),

To drive his legions out of Aquitaine.

When Hongree, Sub-Lieutenant of Chassoores,

Returned (suspecting nothing) to his camp,

After his meeting with the Village Rose,

He found inside his barrack letter-box

A note from the commanding-officer,

Requiring his attendance at headquarters.
