Commines

Commines and Bouchage together had told him about the defeat of Morat and had each received two hundred silver marks.

Another version of this omen of the dove will be found in the extracts from Commines hereafter.

The real spur was probably—as opined by Commines—cowardice; for, says that Frenchman, "Jamais homme cruel ne fut hardi."

"I'm going to spend the evening in the headquarters of my own regiment in Commines," the Hauptmann explains.
