"Early on the following morning both parties prepared for
battle. Richard rose in the twilight, unusually pale
and haggard. His breakfast was not prepared, nor
were his chaplains ready to say mass. He confessed that he
had been disturbed by frightful dreams. He had seen himself
surrounded by hosts of demons who would not suffer him to
rest. He spoke dismally of the impending conflict, saying
it would be the entire destruction of the kingdom whichever
party prevailed; for if he was victorious he was determined
to inflict signal punishment on all the rebels, and if Richmond
gained the day he believed he would not be less sanguinary."
