arrangement with Nelson, yet the
Royal Sovereign. having outsailed her
consorts. went too far, and was isolated
for twenty minutes, being exposed to

OF Villeneuve, as fast as the treacher-
Gus breeze would permit, and in turn
attacked on the north. She, too. was
in advance of her consorts, and was
riddled before they could come to her
relief. For a time the Redoubtable
withstood the onset both of the Victory
and the next in line. but three more
British vessels coming up, the five
finally broke through. capturing the
Brcentaure, the Redoubtable, and the
Santissima Trinidad. which had so gal
lantly opposed them. Both the Eng
fish flagships were saved in the end,
but the fighting was terrific on both
sides. To the Overconfidence Of the
British was opposed a dull timidity in
their opponents, and in the end this be-
gan to tell.

tom. which subordinated caution and
every other idea to the single one of
success. His men loved him just as
Napoleon's did and fought desperately

He was still in his prime, and in many
