[1] [2] The Dolphin being come before the towne, sent certeine bands of his best soldiors by night to giue a camisado to the base towne.A camisado [...] to base Bullongne. They that thus were sent, entred the same the ninth of October, about two of the clocke in the morning, where they tooke the stand watches, and slue (beside a great number of sicke and weake persons) as well soldiors as other, before they could araie themselues, or well get out of their beds. But after, the Frenchmen and Italians fell to rifling and breaking vp of coffers, scattering here and there abrode, and began to fall to their vit|tels, which they found there in good plentie. The Eng|lishmen that were driuen vp to the gates of the high towne, got weapons that were throwne downe vnto them foorth of the same, & assembling togither, fierce|lie entred in amongst the prease of their enimies. And herewith there sallied foorth of the high towne sir Thomas Poinings with a band of two hundred soldiors, [...]n euer|throw giuen to the French [...] Bul|longne. the which togither with the other so bestirred themselues, that they manfullie beat backe the eni|mies, slue to the number of eight hundred of them, and chased the residue out of the towne, which fled o|uer the sands vp to the hill, where the Dolphin him|selfe stood with a great troope of horssemen about him, and durst not once come downe to the rescue of his people, for feare of the great artillerie that with plentie of bullets saluted the enimies, after that the breake of the daie had once discouered them in sight. Amongst other that were slaine in this repulse of the Frenchmen, le segneur de Foquessolles, another of the marshall de Biez his sons in law, and sene|schall of Bullongne was one.
