What weapons were used by Denys, Gerard, and the thieves?

Explanation:
And you weep so for that?"
"Needs I must, bel gars. My mammy will massacre me. Do they not
already" (with a fresh burst of woe) "c-c-call me J-J-Jean-net-on
C-c-casse tout? It wanted but this; that I should break my poor
pot. Helas! fallait-il donc, mere de Dieu?"
"Courage, little love," said Gerard; "'tis not thy heart lies
broken; money will soon mend pots. See now, here is a piece of
silver, and there, scarce a stone's throw off, is a potter; take
the bit of silver to him, and buy another pot, and the copper the
potter will give thee keep that to play with thy comrades"
The little mind took in all this, and smiles began to struggle
with the tears: but spasms are like waves, they cannot go down the
very moment the wind of trouble is lulled. So Denys thought well
to bring up his reserve of consolation "Courage, ma mie, le diable
est mort!" cried that inventive warrior gaily. Gerard shrugged his
shoulders at such a way of cheering a little girl.
"What a fine thing
Is a lute with one string,"
said he.
The little girl's face broke into warm sunshine.
"Oh, the good news! oh, the good news!" she sang out with such
heartfelt joy, it went off into a honeyed whine; even as our gay
old tunes have a pathos underneath "So then," said she, they will
no longer be able to threaten us little girls with him, making our
lives a burden!" And she bounded off "to tell Nanette," she said.
There is a theory that everything has its counterpart; if true,
Denys it would seem had found the mind his consigne fitted.
