Falling astern he cameabreast of the gallant _Centaure_, which had already fought fourBritish men-of-war. Being now a mere battered hulk she surrendered. Then Boscawen, his damage repaired, pushed ahead again. La Clue, whosefleet was the smaller, seeing no chance of either victory or escape, chose shipwreck rather than surren...der, and ran his flagship straight onthe rocks, with every stitch of canvas drawing full and his flag keptflying.
[Illustration: The _ROYAL GEORGE_] Quiberon and Quebec go together, like "the eye of a Hawke and the heartof a Wolfe"; for Hawke's victory at Quiberon made it certain thatWolfe's victory at Quebec could not be undone. The French were tryingto unite their west-coast fleets at Morbihan for an invasion of Englandor at least a fight to give some of their own shipping a breathingspell free from blockade.
