 be done with the prisoners, whom, tili we reeeive order, we 

 will take care shall be safely kept. Thus it liatli pleased

 great joUity and strength to be so shamefully defeated by a 

 handftiU of us, and those who were tired out with extraor- 

 dinary sufFerance of watching and cold. Blessed be His 

 name for it."
