Par la Gascogne
Qui vit nîatre
d’Artagnan
Par le vin de nos coteaux
qui donne notre Armagnac
par tout ce qui fit grand
notre pays,
en héritier spirituel
Du chevalier de Batz,
Comte d’Artagnan,
Je jure de toujours respecter
cette eau-de-vie merveilleuse
qui a nom
ARMAGNAC
Source de toutes les vertus viriles
et de tous les enthousiasmes féminins.
By Gascony Where d’Artagnan was born. By the wine of our hillsides which gives our Armagnac, by all which made our country important, spiritual heir of the knight of Batz, Count d’ Artagnan, I swear to respect always this wonderful brandy which has name ARMAGNAC Source of all the virile virtues and all the feminine enthusiasms.
This is the oath of the “Compagnie des Mousketaires de l’Armagnac” it could be considered like a good example of Gascon Panache
