lumineauxI did three texts for Coronation: one simple AoA to help out Brunissende, the scribe. The other two were Writs summoning friends to present themselves to sit vigil for the Order of the Pelican.
In public consistory, at the time of the solemn and royal court held at Concordia of the Snows, a brilliant assembly of counts and barons being in session, and a very great multitude of nobles and commoners standing before the most serene lord Edward king of the East, and Thyra his Queen for the purpose of exhibiting the fullness of justice to each person, the said king and queen, according to law, did elevate the good lady Mechthild Welandstochter to the status and station of the nobility and award unto her the following Arms: Argent, two spiked maces in saltire and on a chief gules three snails argent. The aforesaid was done upon 13 October, in the forty-seventh year of the Society.
