Zuinglius was 44. years of age when he died. They took the Abbot Capellensis being slain, and put out both his eyes, and clothed him in a Monks coal, and so set him ⟨p. 430⟩in a pulpit to preach, railing on him in most despiteful manner. This battle was the xi. of October. The Bernats hearing of this overthrow, armed themselves to make revenge, and attempting to take Tugie, were overmatched of the Page-men. At the last (through mediation) a league was made between them,1 that the Tigurins, Bernats, and Basilians, should forsake the league made with Strasburg, and the Landgrave: and likewise the v. pagemē their league with Ferdinandus. And hereof were obligations sealed the last of November.
