French.

De plus grand perte nouvelles rapportées, Le rapport fait le camp festonnera, Bandes unies encontre revoltées, Double _Phalange_, grand abandonnera.

English.

News being brought of a great loss, The report divulged, the Camp shall be astonished, Troops being united and revolted, The double _Phalange_ shall forsake the great one.

ANNOT.

This hath a connexion with the precedent; for while the Prince of _Parma_ was busied in _France_, news was brought to his Camp, that the _Hollanders_ had taken _Antwerp_, which discouraged his whole Host, and made him retire with all speed.

The Word _Phalange_ signifieth a Battailion or part of an Army, which being expressed here by the word _double Phalange_, signifieth, that both Horse and Foot deserted the Duke of _Parma_ upon the hearing of this news.
