This book contains the following passage at page 28 pertaining to Walter, Lord Hungerford (EN8):
“Amongst other speeches which 1 noticed, was this, a certain Lord, Walter Hungerford, Knight, was regretting in the King’s presence, that he had not, in addition to the small retinue which he had there, ten thousand of the best English archers, who would be desirous of being with him. When the King said, ‘thou speakes foolishly, for by the God of heaven, on whose grace I have relied, and in whom I have a firm hope of victory, I would not, even if I could, increase my number by one; for those whom I have are the people of God, whom he thinks me worthy to have at this time.”
