,
which
we
hadde
woon
of
the
enimie
within
three
quarters
of
a
League
off
the
Dukes
trenches
,
wherat
the
D.
was
much
astonished
,
and
imagined
he
was
betraied
by
the
French
.
The
xix
.
day
we
offered
them
manie
ski●mishes
,
but
the
Duke
was
very
coole
and
would
not
stir
.
The
Kinge
as
well
to
come
by
victuall
himselfe
by
saint
Vallarie
and
Diep
,
as
also
to
hinder
the
comming
of
any
to
the
enimie
,
remooued
from
Euetote
and
came
towards
Newhauen
.
After
wee
were
lodged
,
the
enemie
laide
an
ambuscado
for
vs
,
and
sent
some
of
his
horsemen
to
tole
vs

Therevpon
the

sent
for
sir
Roger
Williams
to
come
vnto
him
with
two
hundred
Muskets
,
and
an
hundred
and
fiftie
Pikes
,
which
were
presentlie
charged
by
fiue
Cornets
of
Spaniards
and
Italians
,
whoe
were
so
well
receiued
,
that
two
of
their
Coronets
were
taken
.
Some
of
the
Commanders
of
those

were
killed
,
and
many
hurt
in

meane
time
vi
.
hundred
Musketers
and
Corslets
of
the
enemie
,
which
were
also
backed
by
other
companies
maintained
a
hotte
skirmish
with
our
men
,
but
in
the
end
the

was
forced
to
retire
with
shame
and
losse
,
there
were
in
this
conflict
fortie
English
hurt

The
king
doth
greatly
exalt
the
English
,
and
fir
Roger
Williams
for
their
valor
shewed
at
this
seruice
,
who
haue
also
gotten
therein
great
good
spoile
and
booties
of
the
enemies
.
The
Gallion
of
Roane
was
lately
taken
by
some
ships
that
lie
in
the
riuer
,
and
which
doth
also
hinder
the
comming
of
victuall
vnto
the
campe
.
There
was
a
letter
of
the
Duke
,
vnto
the
king
of
Spaine
intercepted
,
wherein
he
rehearseth
the
miserie
that
he
is
in
,
for
want
of
sufficient
strength
to
meete
the
king
,
and
his
great
want
of
victuals
,
and
the
small
meanes
he
hath
to
make
a
good
retreate
.
He
also
complaineth
of
the
duke
de
Maine
&
the
other
french
saying
,
that
they
haue
in
a
maner
betraied
him
,
&
concludes
that
he
cannot
retire
without
fighting
,
and
hassarding
the
losse
of
his
armie
,
He
hath
receiued
a
shot
in
the
arme
,
and
is
like
as
his
Physition
saith
,
to
lose
it
:
for
althogh
the
hurt
of
it selfe
be
not
daungerous
,
yette
by
reason
of
distemperature
and
other
accidentes
which
commonlie
followe
vppon
such
hurts
they
stand
in
great
doubt
of
it
,
he
is
carried
in
a
●●tter
and
cannot
yet
ride
on
horsseback
.
The
king
is
resolued
to
assaile
him
in
his
trenches
,
if
he
will
not
otherwise
accept
of
battayle
.
We
feare
nothing
but
that
hee
will
steale
away
in
the
night
.
The
kinge
hath
at
this
time
2600.
Frenche
Curaces
,
and
800.
Harquebushers
on
horssebacke
,
besides
three
thousande
French
footmen
which
are
dailie
expected
:
he
hath
also
sent
for
all
his
garrisons
round
about
him
,
and
the
longer
the
duke
dooth
staie
,
the
more
forces
the

will
haue
.
