lord of Pompadour, and the archpriest, sore hurt, the earl of
Vaudimont, the earl of Mons, the earl of Joinville, the earl of

killed, wounded or taken, which the French text gives in order

Bourbon, sir Guichard of Beaujeu and sir John on Landas, and
there were severely wounded or taken the arch-priest, sir Thibaud
of Vodenay and sir Baudouin, d'Annequin; in another there were
slain the duke of Athens and the bishop of Chalons, and taken the
earl of Vaudemont and Joinville and the earl of Vendome: a little
above this there were slain sir William de Nesle, sir Eustace de
Ribemont and others, and taken sir Louis de Melval, the lord of
Pierrebuffière and the lord of Seregnach.
