Anoon as charles was icome,Niȝ honde þar þe bataille was nome,
In a mede a non riȝt
Þe kinges pauilons were ipiȝt,
Vnder an hul besides a riuere,
& bi-fel as ȝe moun here.
Fol niȝ þe water þe king lay,
Of bataille for to a-bide his day,
& vppon þat oþer side,
He miȝte seen hise enemis ride,
& þere nas brugge ne forde non,
Þat man miȝte ouer riden ne gon.
