As he could not get any relnlorcementa soon enough to help lilm, he tried to receive them. He therefore sent for sixty empty ships and on each of them, besides the necessary crews, one musician. When evening came these ships sailed out and, arriving near the-threateued line, tbe musicians started playing different marches, some in Scottish, others the French, and again, others the German march. This made a tremendoua noise which caused tbe Spaniards to think that the Dutch bad received reinforce ments.
