The Irish Brigade was scattered before it, as chaff before the wind.

The Prince of Ballybunion had barely time to run Odillon Barrot through the body, when he too was borne away in the swift rout.

They scattered tumultuously, and fled for twenty miles without stopping.

The Princes of Donegal and Connemara were taken prisoners; but though they offered to give bills at three months, and for a hundred thousand pounds, for their ransom, the offer was refused, and they were sent to the rear; when the Duke of Nemours, hearing they were Irish Generals, and that they had been robbed of their ready money by his troops, who had taken them prisoners, caused a comfortable breakfast to be supplied to them, and lent them each a sum of money.

How generous are men in success!--the Prince of Orleans was charmed with the conduct of his National Guards, and thought his victory secure.
