(The armed foot soldiers are instructed to surround the right and left flanks, and some horsemen are joined to them so that the mass of the foot soldiers may be stronger with their support. He absolutely forbids them to retreat from the field so that they can be rescued, if they should be put to flight by the enemy.)

12.“Tribus aciebus antepositis manus pedestris, ut has protegat et ab his protegatur, retro sistitur.”(“The band of foot soldiers stood in the rear with a triple battle line drawn up before it to protect them and to be protected by them.”)In the edition by Prutz, Source Contributions to the History of the Crusades(Quellenbeiträge zur Geschichte der Kreuzzüge),1:44.

Radulf, Gesta Tancredi(Deeds of Tancred),Chap. 32(Recueil des Historiens des Croisades. Occidentaux: Collection of the Historians of the Crusades. Occidentals,3:629)reports of the fleeing Turks: “nec fuga gyrum senserunt, adeo fugere est sperare salutem.”(“Nor in their flight did they even think of turning, to such an extent to flee is to hope for safety.”)According to the account, this refers to horsemen whom we cannot imagine as forming a tight group. That can perhaps be explained by the fact that the poet in his holy inspiration inadvertently attributed to the horsemen a picture from the actions of the fighters on foot.

(After retreating safely so often to his rampart of foot soldiers, in no way did the count fear to be hurt by the enemy. And in fact our knights dread to attack foot soldiers with spears, while they themselves fight with swords. They have short weapons; the others indeed have a spear longer than knives or swords. And their unbreakable formation drawn up in a triple circuit like walls did not permit those cautiously disposed to come near.)
