A letter from the east to the Master of Hospitalers represents Tyre as on the point of surrendering to Saladin. Of the besieging army the writer with delightful exaggeration says, "So great is the multitude of the Saracens and Turks that from Tyre they cover the face of the earth as far as Jerusalem, like an innumerable army of ants. "^ Ba...ha al-Din says : "Abd al-Muhsin, the High Admiral, had instructed the ships to be watchful and vigilant that the enemy might not find any opportunity of doing them harm, but they neglected this good advice and omitted to keep a good watch during the night. Therefore the infidel (Crusaders' ) fleet came out of the harbor of Tyre, fell upon them unawares and took five of their ships with two captains and killed a great number of Moslem sailors. "^ The other vessels were run aground and destroyed. The Moslem army, seeing the engagement by sea, supposed that the walls had been left without defenders.
