Wyntown thus quaintly describes the feelings of Edward, on being told of the loss of his fleet:—
“Quhen the Kyng Edward of Ingland Had herd of this deidfull Tythand, All breme he belyd in-to berth, And wrythyd all in wedand werth, Alsá kobbyd in his crope As he had ettin are Attyrcope.” Wyntown, vol. ii. p. 81.
