There came with them foorth of England foure hundred men of armes, foure hundred archers, and (as Frois|sard saith) beside their capteins, these earles which he nameth, to wit, the lord of Tabestone (or rather Bradstone as I take it) sir Brian Stapleton, sir Thomas Balaster, and sir Iohn Triuet. Whilest the said earles went thus to make warre against the earle of Perigord,Sir Hugh Caluerlie. sir Hugh Caluerlie with two thousand men of warre was sent also to ouerrun the lands of the earle of Arminacke, and of the lord Dal|bret;Sir Iohn Chandois. sir Iohn Chandois laie in the marches of Tho|louse at Mountaubon, & afterwards besieged Ter|rieres, and in the end wan it; and so likewise did the earles of Cambridge and Penbroke win Bur|dille,Burdille woon [...]. by reason of a saillie that they within made foorth, and passed so far from their fortresse, that the Englishmen got betwixt them and home.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 Sir Robert Knols came from such lands as he had in Britaine,Sir Robert Knols. to serue the prince now in these warres of Gascoigne, and was by him made chéefe gouernor of all his men of warre, who bare himselfe right wor|thilie in that charge. The first iournie which he made at that time, was into Quercie, hauing with him be|side his owne hands, certeine knights of the princes retinue, as sir Richard Ponchardon, sir Stephan Gousenton, sir Noell Loring, sir Hugh Hastings, sir EEBO page image 403 Iohn Triuet, sir Thomas Spenser, sir Thomas Balaster, sir Nicholas Bond, sir William le Moins seneschall of Aigenois, sir Baldwin de Freuille, and others. At their comming into Quercie, they be|sieged a strong fortresse called Durmell, within the which were diuerse capteins of the companions, as Aimon d'Ortigo, the little Mechin, Iaques de Bray, Perot de Sauoie, and Arnaudon de Pons, the which so valiantlie defended the place, that although the lord Chandois, accompanied with sir Thomas Fel|ton, the capitall of Beuf, sir Iohn de Pommiers, sir Thomas Percie, sir Eustace Daubreticourt, and o|thers came with their retinues from Montaubon, to reenforce that siege, yet could they not obteine their purpose, but raising from thence after fiue weekes siege (constreined thereto through want of vittels) they marched streight to a towne called Domme, which they besieged, hauing in their armie fifteene hundred men at armes, B [...] Gerard. beside two thousand archers and brigands, so called in those daies, of an armor which they ware named brigandines, vsed then by footmen, that bare also targets, or pauoises, and certeine darts or iauelines to throw at their eni|mies.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The towne and castell of Domme were so strong of themselues, and so well prouided of men of warre that were appointed to the gard of the same, with the lord thereof called sir Robert de Domme, that after the English capteins perceiued they should but lose time to linger about the winning of that towne, they raised their siege, and marching further into the countrie, wan Gauaches, Freins, Rochmador, and Uille Franche, vpon the marches of Toulouzain, greatlie to the displeasure of the duke of Aniou that lay at the same time in the citie of Toulouze, & could not remedie the matter. ¶But to recite euerie par|ticular enterprise, as the same was atchiued by the English capteins and men of warre in that season, it should be more than the purpose of this volume might permit, and therefore I passe ouer diuerse things, which I find registred by Froissard and other writers, onelie aduertising you, that as the English|men thus made sore warres against their aduersa|ries abroad in those quarters: so the Frenchmen on the other part had assembled great numbers of men of warre, not onelie to defend their frontiers, but al|so by inuasions to win from the Englishmen towns and castels, and to wa [...]t such countries as would not turne to their side. Thus were all those countries in troubles of warre.Aquitaine full of warre.
