Let us, therefore, be cautious how we enter into any treaties of which we may hereafter repent.' Thus were the negotiations of Bourdeaux, Qax and Bayoime,. with the French, broken off. Sir Thomas Percy and the Biihop of London arrived fafe in the harbour of Bourdeaux with their charge of men at arms and archers, to the great joy of feme, and grief of others, who were of the party of the king of France. Thefe Englilh lords lodged aU together at the abbey of Saint Andrew, and, wh&i they thought it was rime, they remonftrttted wkh the commonalty of Bourdeaux on the ftate of England, and the caufe of their coming, with |»ch fuccefs as they were contented with: Dax ,and Bayonne were alfo fatisfied.
