Bastide, o. c

4. Gallus hath been this summcr-time in Frieseland, And now return'd he speaks such warlikc words As if I could their English understand,

I fear me they would eut my throat like swords.

He talks of connterscar/fs and casomates,

Of parapets, of curleynes, and pallizadois,

Of flankers, ravelings^ gabions he prates,

And of false hiaies^ and sallies, and scaladoes (John Davics, Epigr.^ circa, 1599).
