The King's Promises took effect; and they all revolted from the General.

The King now daring not to trust the Revolted, to make tryal of their Truth and Fidelity, put them in the forefront of his Battel, and commanded them to give the first Onset.

The King at that time might have Twenty or Thirty thousand Men in the Field.

Who taking their opportunity, set upon the Portugueze Army, and gave them such a total overthrow, that as they report in that Countrey not one of them escaped.

The General seeing this Defeat, and himself like to be taken, called his Black Boy to give him water to drink, [He loses a Victory and stabs himself.] and snatching the Knife that stuck by his Boy's side, stabbed himself with it.
[Lewis Tissera served as he intended to serve the King.] Another General after him was Lewis Tiffera.
