Note 734 — Chapter IV · HENRY AND THE BARONS. 1166–1175.
Reading edition
R. Diceto as above, pp. 377, 378. Gesta Hen. as above, pp. 61, 62. Rog. Howden as above, p. 55. Gerv. Cant. (Stubbs), vol. i. p. 246. Will. Newb., l. ii. c. 30 (Howlett, vol. i. p. 179). The number of Robert’s Flemish troops is surely exaggerated by all these writers; still, even at the lowest computation, the odds seem to have been, as R. Diceto says, at least four to one.
