Greate is the man and gret is the report; <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We creddit him with muche and goodly change<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He gives to all a lyfe of finest sport <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To towers white this boldnes is not strange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nor vnto those in which great honour plant <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nor youthful mynds whose valeur he bringth in,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To him a crescent silver and arms grant<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quarterly sable and vert, a dragon <\/p>\n\n\n\n
passant Or between in chief two crosses<\/p>\n\n\n\n
of Santiago argent, an orle Or.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Queen Vienna and King Wilhem bid all see<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thomas de Marr honored before us all<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the 23rd of March, year fifty-three<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Bridge Barony’s beloved Black Rose Ball.
