Their begrimed faces and theimpetuosity of their onset struck dismay into the hearts of theSpaniards, and they incontinently gave way. Meantime Lord Cochraneheaded the aftermost division; and the enemy, thus unexpectedly assailedfore and aft,... were driven a confused mass into the waist. Here adesperate hand-to-hand struggle ensued; till one of the _Speedy's_ men, having by the captain's direction fought his way to the ensign-staff, hauled down the Spanish colours, when the Spaniards, believing thattheir officers had struck the flag, cried out for quarter.
