Woolseie the kings almoner, being in number eight hundred was in manner of a rere-gard. Sir Anthonie Ough|tred and sir Iohn Neuill with the kings speares that followed were foure hundred, and so the whole armie conteined eleuen thousand and three hundred men. The number of the cariages were thirtéene hundred, and the number of them that attended the same were ninetéene hundred men, and all these were rec|koned in the battell: but of good fighting men & soul|diers appointed for the purpose, there were not full nine thousand. In this order the king with his armie marched forward through the confines of his eni|mies to the siege of Terrouan, entring into the French ground the fiue and twentith of Iulie being mondaie. On the morrow after as the armie mar|ched forward, by negligence of the carters that mi|stooke the waie, a great curtall (called the Iohn E|uangelist) was ouerthrowne in a déepe pond of wa|ter and could not quicklie be recouered.

On the morrow after being wednesdaie, the Reliefe of the speares brought word that they had ascried the French armie comming forward in order of battell, to the number of eleuen thousand footmen, and foure thousand horssemen.

Paule, the lord of Flo|ringes, the lord of Cleremont, & Richard de la Poole a banished man, son to Iohn duke of Suffolke. They came within two miles of the kings armie, and there the footmen staled, and came no further.

And thus they stood countenancing the Eng|lishmen.The northern prickers plaie the men. Some of the northerne prickers made to them, and in skirmishing with them, tooke some of them prisoners. About noone the same daie, that va|liant Welsh knight sir Rice ap Thomas with his re|tinue of horssemen being departed from the siege of Terrouan came to the king, and streightwaies was sent to the earle of Essex, which with two hundred speares was laid in a stale, if the Frenchmen had come neerer. When they were ioined togither, they drew about the hill, hauing with them sir Thomas Guilford, with two hundred archers on horssebacke, meaning to set on the Frenchmen: which percei|uing that, and doubting least more companie had fol|lowed, they suddenlie drew backe, and ioined them with their great battell.
