ABSTRACT
Those approaching by way of the work at the Caleta came on with so great impetus that without fear or consideration for the artillery and troops and galleys opposing them there, they attacked this work, where the city had as many as 250 men stationed for its defence. They killed and captured many persons. Being undisciplined in war and not regulars, ours retired in disorder rather than perish there. Thus, by force of arms, the English seized and possessed themselves of this city and began to (p. 2) burn it. They commenced with the temples, to which they show themselves to be most inimical.
