Compare 1577 edition: 1 At which day there came to Reading earle Iohn, and the archbishop of Rouen, with manie other bi|shops, earles, and barons, abiding there all that day, to sée if the chancellour would appeare or no; but he came not: wherevpon they prepared to march foorth towards London, and therewithall set forward in like maner. He on the other side being a man of a great courage, had gathered an armie of such stran|gers and other his fréends as he could make, and therewith went foorth, and encamped neere to Wind|sor, there to abide his aduersaries, and to giue them battell, if they came forward and would abide it. But when they approched, and he perceiued also how diuerse of his freends shranke from him, and went to his enimies, he durst not attempt the hazard of a field, but fled backe to London, and there withdrew into the tower,The chancel|lour retireth to London. with all his host, bicause he durst not commit himselfe to the doubtfull fellowship of the ci|tizens. Through his great pride and statelie port which he mainteined, as partlie yée haue heard, he had procured to himselfe no small hatred amongst all degrees of men, and namelie such as by the kings appointment ought to haue beene parteners with him in gouernement of the realme sore repined at his presumptuous proceedings, for that he disdained (as it séemed) to vse their aduise, or to ioine them with him in the administration of things, so that now in time of his trouble he wist not in whome he might put his trust.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 After he was thus retired into the tower of Lon|don, earle Iohn the archbishop of Rouen, and the other bishops, earles, and barons associated togi|ther against him, followed him at the héeles, entered the citie, and besieged the tower on ech side. On the morrow after, being the fourth day after the octaues of saint Michaell, they came togither into Paules churchyard, where they publikelie declared the iniuri|ous wrongs doone and practised by the chancellour;A declaration made against the lord chan|cellour. namelie against the archbishop of Yorke, and the bi|shop of Durham. Those also that had beene appointed as associats with him, accused him, in that he had taken vpon him to rule and gouerne all things after his owne will, not vouchsafing to haue their aduise or councell in such sort as had béene conuenient.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The archbishop of Rouen and William Marshall earle of Pembroke shewed there before all the peo|ple the kings letters which he had sent from Messina, appointing that they should be associats with him in gouernment of the kingdome;The tenor of this leter shall héereafter appeare. and that without the counsell and aduice of them and others assigned ther|to, he should not meddle with the rule of the land, and that if he should doo any thing to the hinderance of the common-wealth, or séeke to meddle with the af|faires of the realme, without their good aduise, that then he should be deposed. Héerevpon it seemed good to earle Iohn, and to all the bishops, earles and ba|rons of the realme, and to the citizens of London there assembled, that the said chancellour should be deposed, and so they proceeded, and deposed him in|déed, appointing the archbishop of Rouen in his place, who would not take vpon him to doo anie thing tou|ching the rule of the land, without consent of his as|sociats assigned to him, and the barons of the es|checker.
