[1] [2] [3] The marquesse of Northampton causing (as be|fore yee haue heard) diligent watch to be kept vpon the walles, and at the gates, appointed the same to be visited right often, that through negligence no mis|hap should follow. Moreouer, besides the watch at the gates and walles, the residue of the soldiors ma|king a mightie huge fire in the market place, so as all the stréets were full of light, they remained there all that night in their armour, readie vpon anie oc|casion to resist the enimies if they should make anie attempt. Sir Edward Warner marshall of the field gaue the watch-word, sir Thomas Paston,Sir Edward Warner. sir Iohn Clere, sir William Walgraue, sir Thomas Cornwallis, and sir Henrie Bedingfield were ap|pointed to the defense of other parts of the citie. And now when euerie thing was thought to be safelie prouided for, and that the lord marquesse and other were laid to take their rest, the rebels about the mid|dest of the night began to shoot off their great artille|rie towards the citie, so thicke as was possible: but the bullets passed ouer their heads that were lodged in the citie, without dooing anie great hurt at all.
