They with∣in had put vpon the walles an Ancient with a Bourgous crosse, which we shot al in peeces. On the same night haue they within the Towne made an allarme, calling fall to, fall to; and they came out in the meane while with some boates, and tooke in the battery, which lay betweene the great Sconce, & the quarter of Pinsen, spoy∣ling the victulers, but found none Ordnance, because it is everynight brought vnder the great Sconce, and are so againe returned into the Towne.
