ABSTRACT

W h e n the Lord King of Aragon had left Peralada and Vilabertran he took the road of Castellon by Salanca and went to Castellon where he found the count, who did not know what to do when he heard that Peralada had been burnt. Neither did the men of Castellon, for they all knew that, as Peralada was abandoned, they could not hold out against the forces of the King of France. But if Peralada had not been abandoned, they fully reckoned that they could have held out and that, between the two places, they could have done the enemy plenty of harm.
