When there arrived, he • only perceived the iaughtered foragers ; for the French had returned by the road they had come; but, had they not had good guides, they would never have found it through the inclofures. The Englifh, on their return, when within half a league of their army, faw the French re-enter the caftle of Corunna, which vexed them much : but help it they could not. The army blamed the marfhal for having fuffered the foragers to go with-out an effort of me$ at arms, when the enemy were fo near, and in fuch numbers. The con-ftable and dyke of Lancafter were fo {harp with him, he was quite afhamed : he faid, that they had been caught, to be fure, this once, though they had foraged ten times before without any inter-ruption. • * Sir Thomas/ faid the duke, ' be more cautious in future ; for fuch things may fall out in one day or hour, as may not happen again in a century.* CHAP- 19
