In short, the numbers of persons, including princes, knights, and men
of every degree, slain that day, amounted to upward of ten thousand,
according to the estimates of heralds and other able persons.
The bodies of the greater part were carried away by their friends after
the departure of the English, and buried where it was agreeable to them.
Of these ten thousand, it was supposed only sixteen hundred were of
low degree; the rest all gentlemen; for in counting the princes, there
were one hundred and six score banners destroyed.
