He was past thirty now, and ten years had gone by since he became Lord of Beauvallet. Behind him, sprawling on the soft grass, was his squire, a handsome youth with black curls and merry eyes. They were thoughtful now and admiring, for they rested on Simon, pondering him. Simon stood motionless, half-turned away; he had not moved or spoken for some minutes, but was frowning over the fair land stretched at his feet. His squire watched the grim profile respectfully, glancing from the massi...ve, projecting brow with the deep-set eyes shining from beneath it, to the strong jaw-bone, outlined clearly in the bronzed, lean cheek. One of Simon’s hands hung listless at his side, and presently clenched a little; the spurred feet were well apart and firmly planted. The squire reflected idly that the pose stood for all the strength and purpose that were Simon’s. He rolled over on to his side, supporting his head on one slim hand, still watching Simon.

Medieval suits of armour had to be made especially for the wearer, since the material was not stretchable nor anything except rigid steel. So this story of the golden suit of armour omits that it must have needed extensive alterations before it could be work by Simon. Including gilding the extra parts. Heyer, whilst an excellent writer makes lamentable errors, confusing "peasants" and "serfs", as well as mentioning a purse of guineas (not existing at the period) and a few lines later giving 5 "sovereigns" (also not existing) to the landlord. 5 pounds would be 2 years income for a landlord, at that time. The only money circulating then were Pennies.
