The said Lord of Trinity, with his army, camped in a village beyond Tour, in the valley of Luserne, at the foot of the hill, between Angrongne and the other towns of the valley of Luserne,1 which professed the Gospel. They of the said village were always sore against the Waldoys, & haters of true religion, and were glad of this outrage and violence done against the professors thereof: but they had their just plague, for they were all destroyed. After this the said Lord of Trinity caused the Fortress to be built again, which the Frenchmen had razed, and placed there a garrison, and after sent another to the Forte of Uillars, which is of the valley of Luserne, and an other he sent to the Fortress of Perouse, and a fourth garrison he placed in the Castle of S. Martin. They of Angrongne (seeing themselves to be now as it were in a sea of troubles) after they had recommended themselves unto God by prayer, and committed their cause unto him: sent to them of Perouse, of S. Martin, and of Pragela, for aid and succour: which sent them all the help that they were able.
