FELIX MANASSES.
1428.
When Emperor Sigismund received the honor of the empire
In the Roman city in the usual manner,
He gave the knightly name to the Zürich legates,
With their shoulders struck lightly by a drawn sword.
1433

RODOLPHUS STUSSIUS,
Knight. 1433.
Stussius, a sharp knight, sustains the bronze battle lines near the waters of the Sihl,
Standing upon the bridges,
Until the wild ones closed the open gates in the city:
Only then did he himself fall by a hostile hand.
1443

RODOLPHUS MEYSIUS,
Knight. 1435.
A difficult war arises from varied strife
Between the people of Schwyz and the people of the Durregena simultaneously.
The cause is that one Count Toggenburg, kindled by anger,
Submits the funeral torches of war and burns.
1436

IACOBUS SCHVVARZ MURER.
1439.
Leading a column of cavalry, the Dauphin, royal offspring of the Gaul,
Tends toward the walls of Basel.
With his forces worn down, he turns his footsteps backward,
Where the wandering Byrsa likely a river or local feature rushes in a mad vortex.
