[1] [2] The rebels came foorth with their horssemen: but it séemed that they were better practised to fetch in booties, than to make their manage or careire, and therefore not able to match the strangers, which be|ing perceiued of their fellowes that were footmen, they put foorth their archers before their horssemen, and such numbers herewith came swarming foorth of their campe, meaning to compasse in those stran|gers, that they perceiuing the maner and purpose of the enimies, cast themselues in a ring, and retired backe into the citie againe. But they left one of their companie behind them, a gentleman that was an I|talian, who more valiantlie than warilie ventured too farre among the enimies, and through euill hap be|ing ouerthrowne beside his horsse, he was inuironed about with a great multitude of those rebels, that tooke him prisoner, and like vile wretches spoiling him of his armor and apparell, hanged him ouer the wals of mount Surrie.An Italian hanged by the rebels. Which act well shewed what courtesie might be looked for at such cruell traitors hands, that would thus vnmercifullie put such a gen|tleman and worthie souldior to death: for whose ran|some, if they would haue demanded it, they might haue had no small portion of monie to haue satisfied their gréedie minds. But it séemed that their beastlie crueltie had berest them the remembrance of all ho|nest consideration and dutifull humanitie.
