Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Itinerary of Fynes Moryson, Vol. 3 of 4 Of the besieging of the Spaniards at Kinsale, with the delivery of the Towne to the Lord Deputy, and their returne into Spaine in the same year 1601. He 16 day of October, his Lordship with the Army rose from Corke, and encamped five miles short of Kinsale, at a place called Owny Buoy. The 17 the army rose, marching towards Kinsale, encamped within half a mile of the towne under a hill called Knock Robin, where some few shot of the Spaniards offered to disturbe our sitting downe, but were soore beaten home. Wee had at that time scarce so much Powder as would serve for a good dayes fight, neither had wee any competent number of tooles, so as wee could not intrench our selves, for these provisions were not yet come from Dublin. That day Captain Morgan came out of England with one of the Queenes ships, and our Master Gunner came from Waterford, advertising that some ships of provisions, sent from Dublin, were come to that Port, where they were enforced to stay by a contrary wind, being Southerly. The eighteenth the Army lay still, and we viewed the fittest places to incampe neere the Towne: but our Artillerie being not come, we removed not. And that night the Spaniards made a salley, much greater then the former, to disturbe our Campe, but our men soone repelled them without any losse to us.
