Chapter intro

Orguillouse

- proud. This was a favourite word of Gilbert Hay whose Buke of the Law of Armys (1456) laments that Thare is sum men sa hichty, hautayn, and orguillous and full of surquedry. However, he assures us that they are not in line for promotion because: na orguillouse squyer suld nocht enter in knychthede.
