To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Those behind, see- ing this misfortune, were thunderstruck, and knew not whither to fly to save themselves. Some leaped into the river, intending to swim, but they were not able thus to escape. Great slaughter ensued ; for the Flemings fell upon them, and killed them easily and without pity. They made several leap into the water, and they were drowned. Sir John de Jumont narrowly escaped, for the bridge broke under him, but by great agility of body he saved himself : he was, however, badly woun...ded on the head and body by arrows, and it was six weeks before he recovered. At this unfortunate action were killed the Constables de Vuillon, de Bouchars, de St. Hilaire, and more drowned : Sir Henry Duffle was slain. Including drowned and killed, there were upward of sixty ; and very fortunate were those who escaped. Great numbers re- turned wounded from this enterprise. News was carried to the lords of France at Arras, of their countrymen hav- ing lost the day, and that the Haze de Flanders had con- ducted this foolish expedition.
