Burgundy and Scales with axes 1467

 A detailed account of a deed of arms between important aristocrats before Edward IV of England.  Another example of the deed being called off when it began to look too dangerous.  As if that shouldn't have been obvious from the git-go!  Thanks to Sean Manning for sending me this gem.
