| Defend thy Realm and promote its cause |
| To protect the weak and defenseless |
| Give alms to the poor as ye are able |
| To live by honour and for glory |
| Forgive as ye hope to be forgiven |
| To refrain from the wanton giving of
offence |
| To guard the honour of fellow knights |
| To obey those placed in authority |
| Redeem the captive |
| At all times to speak the truth |
| Never to turn the back upon a foe |
| Defend the cause of the Order |
| Help the oppressed |
| Do not consent to any wrong |
| Be humble and kind |
| Serve your realm faithfully |
| Do not steal |
| Do not perjure yourself, nor let others do
so |
| Envy and hatred separate men from the
Realm |
| Do ill to no man, nor consent unto such as
do, for the receiver is as bad as the thief |
