began to cannonade the Royalist infantry.

Balls thudded and hissed in the grass,taking a life here, a limb there.

and seeing their own muskets have no effect on the suddenly terrifyingly hurtling horsemen,the moment of truth had arrived.

the two great phalanxes of pikemen heaving and pushing at each other amidst the musket fire until they dropped of exhaustion.
