But another evil omen was sent. ... At the rambla of Beyro, scarcely a bowshot from the city, a fox ran through the whole army. . . . And escaped to the mountains. . . . The King, however, was not to be dismayed, and con- tinued to march forward. "* Cautious as was the advance of the Moorish army, news had reached the governor of Lucena, Don Diego Fernandez de Cordova, " alcayde de los donzeles, " captain of the royal pages. In all haste he caused alarm fires to be lighted, and sent word to his... uncle, the Conde de Cabra, alcayde of the castle-crowned city of Baena, which was not far distant, although a rude mountain region lies between. Don Diego also lost no time in waiting for help, but set to work at his fortifications which needed repair, laid up provisions and made ready for defence, first gathering within his walls the women and children from the near hamlets. ='=^Washington Irving. 139 CIVIL WAR IN GRANADA At dawn the next morning Don Diego saw from afar the approach of the Moorish army, devastating the country, but it was evidently bent on a marauding foray in the rich lands towards Cordova, before the alarm should be given to the peasants and the flocks and herds driven into safety.
