Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 In this twentith yeare of his reigne king Richard receiuing the summes of monie (for the which the strong towne of Brest was ingaged to him) by euill counsell (as manie thought) deliuered it vnto the duke of Britaine,Brest yéelded vp to the duke of Britaine. by reason whereof no small sparke of displeasure arose betwixt the king and the duke of Glocester, which kindled vp such a flame (as it was easie to doo) finding matter inough to féed vpon in both their brests, that finallie it could no longer be kept downe, nor by anie meanes quenched. In the moneth of Februarie, the king holding a sumptuous feast at Westminster, many of the soldiors that were newlie come from Brest preased into the hall, and kept a roome togither.Priuie grudge be|twixt the king and the duke of Glo|cester. Whom as the duke of Gloce|ster beheld, and vnderstood what they were, to re|member how that towne was giuen vp contrarie to his mind and pleasure, it grieued him not a little: and therefore as the king was entred into his cham|ber, and few about him, he could not forbeare, but brake foorth, and said to the king: Sir,The talke be|twixt the king and the duke of Glocester. saw ye not those felowes that sate in such number this daie in the hall, at such a table? The king answered that he saw them, and asked the duke what they were? To whom the duke made this answer:
Sir, these be the soldiors that came from Brest, and haue nothing now to take to, nor yet know how to shift for their liuings, and the worse, for that (as I am informed) they haue béene euill paied. Then said the king; That is against my will, for I would that they should haue their due wa|ges; and if anie haue cause to complaine, let them shew the matter to the treasuror, and they shall be reasonablie answered: and herewith he commanded that they should be appointed to foure certeine villa|ges about London, there to remaine,Out of a French pam|phlet. and to haue meate, drinke, and lodging vpon his charges till they were paied.
