So these capteins came before the citie of Paris. But perceiuing that all things succeeded not according to their expectation, they returned to Mont Martyr, and the next daie suddenlie set on the towne of saint Denis, and constreined the English|men that kept it, to flée into the abbeie, and into the tower Uenin. In this conflict two hundred English|men were slaine, the residue vpon reasonable com|position rendered vp the place, and departed to Paris.
