Excerpt from Froissart's Modern Chronicles

The true reason of my undertaking this book was for my amusement, to which I have ever been inclined, and for which I have frequented the company Of divers noblemen and privy councillors, as well in England as in Scotland and Ireland. And perhaps as this book is neither SO exactly nor so well written as such events as I Shall record require I pray to be excused if I have done injustice to any Of the noble lords, privy councillors, and gentlemen Of Parliament mentioned therein.
