Compare 1577 edition: 1 This cardinall Adrian being fallen in the popes displeasure, withdrew out of the court of Rome vn|to Uenice: and in the meane time cardinall Cam|peius, at the instance of cardinall Woolsie, wrote to the pope, that cardinall Adrian might be depriued of that bishoprike, to the end that cardinall Woolsie might haue the same. Which request was accompli|shed, and the bulles sent vnto Calis; so that then car|dinall Campeius, after he had remained at Calis thrée moneths, came ouer into England, and was receiued with all pompe & honour that might be de|uised. [...]br. Fl. ex Edw. Hall in H [...]. fol. lxiiij. ¶ Insomuch that cardinall Woolsie had sent to the legat (whilest he laie at Calis) red cloth to cloath his seruants, which at their comming to Calis were but meanelie apparelled. And when all things were readie, he passed the sea and landed at Douer; and so kept foorth his iournie toward London.

At euerie towne as they passed, he was receiued with procession,Cardinall C [...]peius [...]ceiued with [...]reat pompe. and accompanied with all the lords & gentlemen of Kent. And when he came to Blacke|heath, there met him the duke of Norffolke, with a great number of prelats, knights, & gentlemen, all richlie apparelled. And in the waie he was brought into a rich tent of cloath of gold, where he shifted him|selfe into the robe of a cardinall, edged with ermins; and so tooke his mule riding towards London. The night before he came to London, the cardinall of Yorke, to furnish the carriages of the cardinall Campeius, sent to him twelue mulets with emptie coffers couered with red: which twelue mulets were led thorough London amongest the mulets of Cam|peius, which were but eight; and so these twentie mu|lets passed thorough the stréets, as though they had béene full of treasures, apparell, & other necessaries.

What trum|perie was in dosed in the lord legats chests.Now when they came into Cheape, one of the mu|lets brake from hir kéeper, and ouerthrew the chests, and ouerturned two or thrée other mulets carriages, which fell with such a violence, that diuerse of them vnlocked; & out of some fell old hosen, broken shooes, and roasted flesh, peeces of bread, egges, and much vile baggage. At which sight the boies cried; Sée, sée my lord legats treasure: and so the muletters were ashamed, and tooke vp all their stuffe and passed foorth. About thrée of the clocke in the after noone on the twentie ninth day of Iulie the said legat entered the citie, and in Southworke met him all the clergie of London, with crosses, censors, and copes, and censed him with great reuerence. The maior and aldermen, with all the occupations of the citie in their best liue|ries stood in the stréets, and him highlie honoured: to whome sir Thomas More made a bréefe oration in the name of the citie.
