But though (saith master Patten) they meant but small humanitie, yet shewed they thereby much ciuilitie, both of faire plaie, to warne yer they stroke, and of formall order, to chide yer they fought. The English capteines that were be|hind, perceiuing at eie, that both by the vnéeuennesse of the ground, by the sturdie order of the enimie, and for that their fellowes were so nie and streight be|fore them, they were not able to anie aduantage to mainteine this onset,The English horssemen re|pelled. did therefore according to the deuise in that point appointed, turne themselues, and made a soft retire vp toward the hill againe. Howbe|it, to confesse the truth, some of the number that knew not the prepensed policie of the counsell in this case, made of a sober aduised retire, an hastie, rash, and vnaduised flight: howbeit, without capteine or standard, & vpon no cause of néed, but of a méere vn|discretion and madnesse. A madnesse indéed, for first the Scots were not able to pursue, bicause they were footmen; and then if they could, what hope by flight so farre from home in their enimies land, where was no place of refuge?

My lord Greie yet and my lord Iohn Greie, and likewise my lord Edward Seimer (as some grace was) returned againe; but neither all in safetie, nor without eui|dent markes they had bin there: for the lord Greie with a pike through the mouth was rased a long from the tip of the toong,The lord Greie hurt. and thrust that waie verie dangerouslie more than two inches in the necke; and the other two had their horsses vnder them with swords sore wounded. Like as also a little before this onset, sir Thomas Darcie vpon his approch to the enimies, was striken glansing wise on the right side, with a bullet of one of their field péeces, and thereby his bodie brused with the bowing in of his armour, his sword hilts broken, and the forefinger of his right hand beaten flat. Euen so vpon the parting of this fraie, was sir Arthur Darcie slasht at with swords, and so hurt vpon the wedding finger of his right hand also, as it was counted for the first part of curing to haue it quite cut awaie.
