CRUSADERS THROWING HEADS INTO NICE

This second battle, in which the Turks showed the courage of despair, seconded by all the stratagems of war, lasted from morning to night. The victory . . . cost the Christians two thousand lives. The Crusaders made a great many prisioners; four thousand Mussulmans fell on the field of battle; the heads of a thousand were sent to Alexius, and the rest, by the aid of machines, were cast into the city, to inform the garrison of this fresh defeat of the Turks. - Book II
