Make good

Now, Thomas Mowbray, do I turn to thee -
And mark my greeting well ,for what I speak
My body shall make good upon this earth
Or my divine soul answer it in heaven.

By that, and all the rites of knighthood else,
Will I make good against thee ,arm to arm,
What I have spoke or thou canst worse devise. 

These excerpts are from Richard II By Shakespeare.
Duke of Hereford is accusing Thomas Mowbray,Duke of Norfolk,before the king Richard.
What does "make good" mean?
