On the first day he encountered George Von Wiedebach, and unhorsed him so handsomely that the discomfited cavalier's shoulder was dislocated.

On the following day he tilted with Michael von Denstedt, and was again victorious, hitting his adversary full in the target, and "bearing him off over his horse's tail so neatly, that the knight came down, heels over head, upon the earth." On Wednesday, there was what was called the palliatourney.

The Prince of Orange, at the head of six bands, amounting in all to twenty-nine men; the Margrave George of Brandenburg, with seven bands, comprising thirty-four men, and the Elector Augustus, with one band of four men, besides himself, all entered the lists.

Lots were drawn for the "gate of honor," and gained by the Margrave, who accordingly defended it with his band.

Twenty courses were then run between these champions and the Prince of Orange, with his men.
