Wycliffe Bible

¹⁸ Soothly they brought also a golden shield of a thousand bezants.

¹⁹ Therefore [or And so] it pleased to us for to write to (the) kings and countries, that they do not (do) evils to them, neither impugn (or fight against) them, and their cities, and their countries, and that they bear not help to men fighting against them.

²⁰ Forsooth it is seen to us, for to receive of (or from) them the shield.
