During the hurry of this heat:

The rest behind the ramparts stood,

And so were free from wounds and blood.

Thus in a rage, before they tir’d,

Near two hundred royal were fir’d,

With sixteen cannons, ’gainst the fort,

As afterwards they did report:

Yet did no harm was worth a fig,

But a poor soldier lost his leg.

And on the morrow when day appear’d,
