The
other
day
being
the
Eight
of
Ianuarie
1602.
(
according
to
their
stile
)
there
was
diuers
Prisoners
brought
to
diuers
places
for
further
examination
:
It
is
held
that
in
the
assaults
and
in
the
retreat
,
from
the
Towne
more
then
a
Thousand
were
slaine
without
those
which
were
hurt
.
In

there
fledde
ouer

Enemies
men

reporteth

the
Arch-duke
in
the
morning
woulde
come
&
assault
again
,
and
that
the
Walons
and
Dutches
should
assault
by
reason
the
Spanyards
and
Italians
had
assaulted
,
for
the
which
our
Souldiers
within
did
greatly
longe
for
that
they
had
gotten
good
booties
of
signor
Spanyards
.
On

was
thought
his
horse
was
shot
,
and
drowned
.
The
Tenth
of
the
same
our
souldiers
thinking
that
the
Enemie
would
againe
make
an
assault
,
they
haue
expected
them
with
good
deuotion
in
hope
of
more
spoile
.
The
Towne
is
dayly
much
fortified
,
so
that
they
doe
not
greatly
feare
the
Enemie
.
On
the
Eleauenth
of
the
same
a
Drumme
was
sent
from
the

they
had

a
surcease
of
armes
for
Two

was
not

,
came
many
Shalopes
and
Ship-boats
full
of
Souldiours
out
of
the
Fléete
into
the
Towne
in
the
sight
of
the
Enemie
,
notwithstanding
that
they
shat
verie
furiously
without
doing
any
manifest
harme
more
then
that
they
shot
Thrée
men
,
and
one
ship
in
the
ground
,
wherein
were
most
Mariners
,
but
all
saued
,
(
God
bée
praised
.
)

the
East
,
