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.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 The same day, earle Iohn, and the archbishop of Rouen, and other of the kings iustices, granted to the citizens of London the priuilege of their com|munaltie;The citizens of London. and the said earle and archbishop, and in maner all the bishops, erls and barons of the realme sware to mainteine the said priuilege firme and sta|ble, so long as should please their souereigne lord. And the citizens of London sware to be true, and to doo their faithfull seruice vnto king Richard and his heirs, and if he chanced to die without issue, then to receiue earle Iohn the brother of king Richard for their king and souereigne lord, and therevpon sware fealtie to him against all men, sauing that which they owed vnto his brother king Richard.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 The chancellour perceiuing the multitude to be such which he had with him in the tower, as the place was not able to hold them any long time, after he had remained within it one night, he came foorth vn|to earle Iohn, and to the other that were thus entred the citie, and now readie to besiege him, of whome he got licence for them that were inclosed within the tower, to depart without damage, and therewith de|liuered vp the tower vnto the hands of the archbi|shop of Rouen, with the castell of Windsor,The chancel|lour yéeldeth vp the tower. and cer|teine other castels, which he held within the realme, but not all: notwithstanding he couenanted to make deliuerie of the residue, which yet remained in the hands of them whome he had appointed to the kéep|ing of the same. And for assurance of that couenant to be performed before he departed the realme, he deliuered his brethren, and one that was his cham|berleine, to remaine with the lords as hostages.
