His father by the meanes aforesaid went so far for|ward, that ioining with his enimies he fought right valiantlie, and so did all his companie: but finallie being entred within the prease of their enimies, they were of them inclosed and slaine, togither with the king their master, and the next daie found dead lieng about him, and their horsses all tied ech to other. The earle of Alanson came right orderlie to the battell,The earle [...] Alanson. and fought with the Englishmen, and so did the earle of Flanders also on his part. These two lords coa|sted the English archers, and came to the princes bat|tell, and there fought right valiantlie a long time. The French king perceiuing where their banners stood, would faine haue come to them, but could not, by reason of a great hedge of archers that stood be|twixt them and him. This was a perillous battell and sore foughten: there were few taken to mercie, for the Englishmen had so determined in the mor|ning.
