“ When I go to see the English commander (leader) and say to him that some of our comrades are dead, instead of bewailing (being sad about) their death, as our French brothers do, he laughs at me and at you. If I ask for anything for our sick, he refuses with the reply that he has no use for us. From all this, you can well see that they are seeking our ruin (destruction). Therefore, my brothers, we must all swear (promise) their destruction and wait no longer." Who said this?
