Présentation de l'éditeur
The peasant of Luxembourg, wending his weary way homeward through the twilight, started at the loud clatter of hoofs on the poplar-lined road behind him and leaped aside barely in time to give the scurrying messenger free passage. The mill-hand of Flanders checked his beast in its monotonous round and forgot his grist in staring at this sudden apparition. The simple man of Burgundy gazed searchingly from under his red-stained hand, then left his dripping wine-press and hastened to his neighbours to learn what was afoot. (A las, his hand was soon to be dyed even more deeply, but in far different fashion!) In distant A rtois, my lord, returning with his merry company from the hunt, met the flying courier at the very gates of his castle, and the laughter was stilled as he caught the heralds message. No vassal was there of all the great House of Burgundy who escaped the stern call and none was there who dared set it at naught. For the last time, Monseigneur the Duke, despite his threescore years and ten, was to take the field.
