The Brandenburgs broke seven lances, the Prince's party only six, so that Orange was obliged to leave the lists discomfited.

The ever-victorious Augustus then took the field, and ran twenty courses against the defenders, breaking fourteen spears to the Brandenburg's ten.

The Margrave, thus defeated, surrendered the "gate of honor" to the Elector, who maintained, it the rest of the day against all comers.

It is fair to suppose, although the fact is not recorded, that the Elector's original band had received some reinforcement.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to account for these constant victories, except by ascribing more than mortal strength, as well as valor, to Augustus and his four champions.
