But in the interval, the hard-pressed troops commanded by Hastingswere scattered and dispersed; driven from the field, they fled innumbers through the town of Barnet; many halted not till they reachedLondon, where they spread the news of the earl's victory and Edward'sruin. [Sharon Turner. ] Through the mist, Friar Bungey discerned the fugitive Yorkists underHastings, and heard their cries of despair; through the mist, Sibyllsaw, close beneath the intrenchments which protected the space onwhich... they stood, an armed horseman with the well-known crest ofHastings on his helmet, and, with lifted visor, calling his men to thereturn, in the loud voice of rage and scorn.
