[1] [2] This assault was couragiouslie giuen, and to speake a truth, no lesse manfullie defended: so that when the assailants had perceiued in what state the breaches stood, and what prouision they within had made for defense of their towne, which vndoubtedlie was great (for nothing was by them omitted, that might either aduantage the defendants, or annoie the assailants) those that were appointed in this sort to giue the assault, were called backe, and so they retired, but not without losse on both sides, and namelie of them within. For during the time of the assault, the great artillerie did beat still vpon them that presented themselues at the breaches to re|pell the assailants, and so diuerse of their valiant capteins and braue souldiers were slaine at this as|sault, & among other, capteine Philip Corse. Shortlie after, the capteins within the towne, doubting to be eftsoones assaulted, and perceiuing themselues in ex|treame danger to lose the towne by force, if they pro|uided not the sooner, by rendering it to saue them|selues: they sent foorth two of their chiefe capteins, monsieur Semblemont, and monsieur de Haies, which declared vnto the king, that monsieur de Uer|uine gouernour of the towne, with his retinue, was contented to deliuer the towne vnto his grace, with condition that they might passe wi [...]h [...]ag and bag|gage. Which request the king, like a noble and merci|full prince, fréelie granted: and so the next daie, the duke of Suffolke rode into Bullongne, vnto whome in the kings name the keies of the towne were deli|uered,Bullongne deliuered. & in the afternone departed out of Bullongne all the Frenchmen with heauie hearts, to the num|ber of six thousand, as C. O. witnesseth, saieng:
Sex hinc exierant Gallorum millia gentis.
