So constreined, his lordship promised them to compound, and so he got them to the wals. Then my lord going to councell, at length agreed vpon these conditions. [...] of a|greement be| [...]eene the [...] Greie [...] the eni| [...] First, that the castell with all the furniture therin as well vittels as great artillerie, powder, and all other munitions of warre, should be wholie rendred without wasting, hiding, or minishment thereof. Secondarilie, that the lord Greie with all the capteins, officers and others, ha|uing charge there, should remaine prisoners at the dukes pleasure, to be ransomed after the maner of warre. Thirdlie, that all the rest, as well souldiors as others, should depart with their armors, and baggage to what parties it séemed them best: neuer|thelesse to passe without sound of drum or trumpet, or ensigne, and to leaue them behind. These articles sent by monsieur Destrees to the duke were accep|ted, & so in the after noone, the duke himselfe came & receiued the keies of my lord Greie, who presentlie went out, and was giuen to the marshall Strozzie, and from him sold to monsieur de Randan, by whom he came into his brother the counte de Rochefou|calt his hands, and there rested, till he was redée|med for foure and twentie thousand crownes.

At whose is|suing foorth, there were estéemed to the number of eight or nine hundred able men for the warre, part English & part Burgognians. Of Spaniards so few were left, as no account is to be made of them, in maner the whole number of them being slaine, and selling their liues right déerelie, according to the or|der of good & hardie souldiors. Thus endeth this siege, wherein for breuities sake we haue left to saie anie thing of the prouisions that the lord Greie made a|gainst the same, of the aduertisements that from time to time he sent to king Philip and quéene Ma|rie, and of their answers, of the sundrie aduentures which they of Guisnes had with the enimie during their being about Calis, and of the great and ma|nie booties that were there taken. Onelie in a word or two will I ad what bands of strangers were within the péece, because thereof as in an other thing or two,What bands of strangers were within the [...]ort. I doo find maister Grafton in his chronicle speake at rouers. First came in Montdragon, with two Spaniards more, verie valiant men, whome did follow within a daie or two, about foure or fiue and thirtie other Spaniards, all shot, of which (as I haue heard) there went not fiue out of the ca|stell.

This band was appointed to the Marie bulworke, whose cap|teine being full of the gout, and an impotent man, would not yet be from his charge, but in his bed en|ded his life in the bulworke. And so of this enough. But now after the winning of this towne and ca|stell, the duke aduising well vpon the place, Rich. Grason. and con|sidering that if it should happen to be regained by Englishmen, what a noisome neighbor the same might be to Calis, now being French; and special|lie what impeachment should come thereby for the passage thither from France, considering also the neere standing thereof to the French kings fortresse of Ard: so that to keepe two garrisons so nigh to|gither should be but a double charge, and not onlie néedlesse, but also dangerous for the cause afore re|hearsed. Upon these considerations (as the French|men write) he tooke order for all the great artillerie, vittels and other munition, to be taken foorth, and the castell with all the bulworkes and other fortifi|cations there, with all spéed to be razed and throwne downe, and the stuffe to be caried awaie, and em|ploied in other more necessarie places.
