The volunteers, who were unpre- pared for such a reception, could not resist the charge of the veteran Protestant soldiers, and fled in disorder. *They long remembered it.'^ At the centre the Conn^table had drawn up his cavalry The centre in two lines. The first was led by his eldest son ; he Royaiisu himself commanded the second, and was advancing in byCondl that order against the Prince de Cond^, when the latter, morency leaving a third of his force t...o oppose the front line of the ™o^^ Catholics, wheeled past him with the pick of his men, and bursting suddenly upon the left flank of the second line, charged it with such fury that in an instant the great squadron was broken. The Conn^table's horse rolled over; Stuart, the Scotchman, summoned him to sur- render ; but all the answer he got from Montmorency — 'whose men deserted him, but not his valour"^ — was a blow from the hilt of his broken sword, which fractured his jaw. At the same moment the old man fell, mortally wounded by a bullet which passed through his body.
