Compare 1577 edition: 1 The Dolphin notwithstanding that the siege was thus raised from Muttrell, yer he could come thither, yet he kept forward his iourncie,The Dol|phin commeth before Bul|longne with his great power. to prooue what he might doo to recouer Bullongne, which towne the king of England (as ye haue heard) had left in the keeping of the lord Lisle high admerall. The same towne being then weake, God knoweth, on all sides through batterie and minings, which by the kings power had béen made, to bring it into his subiection, EEBO page image 967 and the trenches not cast downe, nor the ordinance mounted.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The Dolphin being come before the towne, sent certeine bands of his best soldiors by night to giue a camisado to the base towne.A camisado [...] to base Bullongne. They that thus were sent, entred the same the ninth of October, about two of the clocke in the morning, where they tooke the stand watches, and slue (beside a great number of sicke and weake persons) as well soldiors as other, before they could araie themselues, or well get out of their beds. But after, the Frenchmen and Italians fell to rifling and breaking vp of coffers, scattering here and there abrode, and began to fall to their vit|tels, which they found there in good plentie. The Eng|lishmen that were driuen vp to the gates of the high towne, got weapons that were throwne downe vnto them foorth of the same, & assembling togither, fierce|lie entred in amongst the prease of their enimies. And herewith there sallied foorth of the high towne sir Thomas Poinings with a band of two hundred soldiors, [...]n euer|throw giuen to the French [...] Bul|longne. the which togither with the other so bestirred themselues, that they manfullie beat backe the eni|mies, slue to the number of eight hundred of them, and chased the residue out of the towne, which fled o|uer the sands vp to the hill, where the Dolphin him|selfe stood with a great troope of horssemen about him, and durst not once come downe to the rescue of his people, for feare of the great artillerie that with plentie of bullets saluted the enimies, after that the breake of the daie had once discouered them in sight. Amongst other that were slaine in this repulse of the Frenchmen, le segneur de Foquessolles, another of the marshall de Biez his sons in law, and sene|schall of Bullongne was one.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Thus the Dolphin, perceiuing that it would no|thing auaile him to make anie further attempt a|gainst Bullongne, passed foorth toward Guisnes, & shortlie after through want of vittels, and sicknesse which sore infested his campe, brake vp his armie, and returned into France: so that the proud enterprises of the vainglorious and most insolent French turned to their owne great shame, as C. O. trulie saith:

Sic Galli in magnum cesserunt dedecus ausa.
