English poem
Stanza 269
Then take they vp the bodies of the slaine, Which for their Targets ours before them beare, And with a fresh assault come on againe; Scarse in the Field yet, such a fight as there, Crosse-bowes, and Long-bowes at it are amaine, Vntil the French their massacre that feare, Of the fierce English, a cessation craue, Offring to yeeld, so they their liues would saue.
