[1] [2] [3] Then were the Frenchmen greatlie abashed, in such wise, that perceiuing how no defense might ad|uance them, they yeelded themselues without any great shew of resistance. Herewith the Englishmen issued out of the castell into the towne, and mounted on horssebacke, for they had the French prisoners horsses, and then the archers road to Bullongne gate, where the lord Geffrie was with his banner before him of gules three scutchens siluer. He had great desire to be the first that should enter the towne: but shortlie the king of England with the prince his son was readie at the gate, vnder the banner of the lord Walter de Mannie to assaile him. There were also other banners,The earles of Stafford and Suffolke, the lords Monta|cute, Berkley and la Ware. as the earles of Stafford and Suf|folke, the lord Iohn Montacute brother to the earle of Salisburie, the lord Beauchampe, the lord Berkley, and the lord de la Ware. Then the great gate was set open, and they all issued foorth crieng Mannie to the rescue. The Frenchmen perceiuing that they were betraied, alighted from their horsses, and put themselues in order of battell on foot, determining to fight it out like valiant men of war.The French|men alight on foot. The king per|ceiuing this, caused his people likewise to be set in or|der of battell, & sent thrée hundred archers to New|land bridge, to distresse those Frenchmen, which he heard should be there. This was earelie in the mor|ning but incontinentlie it was daie: the French|men kept their ground a while, and manie feats of armes were doone of both parts, but the Englishmen euer increased out of Calis, and the Frenchmen di|minished, so that finallie they were ouercome, as well in the one place, as in the other.
