"BE without fear in the face of your enemies.
BE brave and upright that God may love you.
SPEAK the truth, even if it leads to your death.
SAFEGUARD the helpless, and do no wrong."
As a special little bonus, I recently discovered the Italian White Vine border style which I am really quite fond of, thought perhaps something a little less colorful would have been better, I like it at any rate. 
The gold was, as always, a little bit too much fun. 
As for the little miniatures, I depicted the knight as a knight of Jerusalem, (hopefully, for obvious reasons) and the little knight at the bottom there surrounded by the quote from the Common of Holy Men from the Roman Breviary (and I also hope the Latin is correct. I don't actually know Latin, and I had to get some help with it) is St. George, fighting the dragon. Enjoy!

I'm just.. so fond of the precision, the details of the knights, especially the one with the banner <3
THANK YOU!!!
I think that, ad the knights's image in the western Europe, with dragons, princesses, this film never grows old..
On first sight, I thought 'Man, this is way to ornate'.
But giving it a closer look, I had to reconsider quite quickly.
You managed to bring out the serenity and the calmness of these words. The scribework does it very well on it's own but the pictures and the decorations support it immensly.
This is simply amazing.
(I hope, I was able to make myself clear. English is not my native language so please excuse possible mistakes).
