What does homme d’armes mean?

homme d’armes
(Fr.). A military phrase among the French, signifying a gentleman or cavalier who belonged to one of the old companies, was armed cap-a-pie, and always fought on horseback. In ancient times, every man of this description was accompanied by two horsemen independent of his servants. One of the mounted attendants was armed with a cross-bow, and the other with a common bow or battle-axe; so that 100 hommes d’armes composed a body of 300 horse. It was a species of cavalry which existed from the reign of Louis XI. until the reign of Henry II.
