But from the scales and walles wee flang them downe amayne.

It was my charge that time to keepe a bulwarke bace,
Where Bretons came along to enter by a streit:
’Twas in a bottome lowe, a pond was by the place,
By which they needes must passe vp to a posterne gate:
I meant to make them fishe the poole without a bayt,
Protesting ere they there should get the wall
Wee would as English dye, or gieue our foes the fall.
