ABSTRACT

And next day the Company heard that I was besieged, and those who were well mounted hurried on ; in one night and one day they went more than three journeys, so that on the following day, at vespers, more than eighty horsemen had joined us. And then, after two days, the whole host came and found us all disfigured and wounded. And they were all much displeased that they had not been present ; nevertheless we all rejoiced with each other, and we made processions to render thanks to God for the victory He had given us. And they gave us all a fair part of what they had gained, so that we all then, by the mercy of God, were abundantly rich.
