Avis aus Roys: Text, Book IV, Chapter 17 -- Within tent, two figures sit at table spread with platter of fish, knife, pitcher and other objects. Figures turn towards each other and gesture. Behind three trees, two soldiers, wearing mail and helmets, face each other. They stand near rocky outcropping from which emanates spring. The first soldier, with sheathed sword and shield, holds up right hand, index finger raised.
