There is no record of this motto, or any similar, in Joan Evans” extensive catalogue of over 3000 posy inscriptions. See Evans, J., ”English Posies and Posy rings”, 1931. This is one of our earliest posy rings with the inscription in Old French- a language, which along with Latin, were the most widely spoken languages of the time.
