Tlie rebel barons took refuge in the castle, but had no provirilous, nor much artillery ; only a grand outlook upon the fine country of grapes and the advancing avengers, whose bombs were the fiery salutations. These traitors had their own cannons turned upon themselves. They held out, with surprising valour, until the flames were almost lashing their ears. Their hearts sank within them as every shot and tongue of fire told their doom. Then they remembered the gracious queen whose pardons they ...had sold for a smile from Charles IX. They ran up the flag of truce. But Montgomery was not disposed to heed it. The brother of Terride got in the dust before the stern warrior, who was at work for a defied queen. The prayer was not regarded at first. Articles of surrender were drawn and accepted. Among them were these : " First, the re- lease of all Protestant ministers captured during the war and the restoration of their property. Secondly, that Ter- ride remain a prisoner until he had paid a ransom of eight hundred gold crowns or was exchanged for the brother of Montgomery, then in French hands.
