Dizier, the English at Boulogne. Troops were summoned from Italy, and collected from all quarters. Charles steadily advanced, seized Epernay, and rested in Chateau-Thierry Paris almost heard the thunder of his guns ; and, flushed with the possession of Boulogne, Henry was reported to be upon the march to join the army.
244 DEATH OF FRANCIS. [a. D. 1547 But other sounds reached the ears of the belligerents The Protestants in Germany were sharpenin*" their swords, and Charles feared the men of th...e Confes'" on of Augsburg more than the Catholic French. A peace was patched up at Crespy in the Yalois, which left things as they were, and en- abled the two monarchs to turn their religious minds to the extirpation of heresy. The royal heretic who had been the faithful ally of one of them, and the considerate foe of the other, contented himself with demanding a bribe of two mil- lion crowns for the restitution of his conquests. Our charac- ter at that time was more economical than heroic ; and we seldom set our foot in France, unless on the careful calcula- tion of how much the enemy would give us for going away again.
