In honor of International Talk Like a Pirate Day:

Pirate Code

Many of the pirate groups had Articles by which they ruled their lives.

"IX. If at any time you meet with a prudent Woman, that Man that offers to meddle with her, without her Consent, shall suffer present Death."

Pirate code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A pirate code was a code of conduct invented for governing pirates. Generally each pirate crew had its own code or articles, which provided rules for discipline, division of stolen goods, and compensation for injured pirates.
