Compare 1577 edition: 1 The duke desired that the witnesses might bée brought foorth. And then came before him Charles Kneuet, Perke, de la Court, & Hopkins the monke of the priorie of the Charterhouse beside Bath, which like a false hypocrite had induced the duke to the trea|son with his false forged prophesies. Diuerse pre|sumptions and accusations were laid vnto him by Charles Kneuet, which he would faine haue couered. The depositions were read, & the deponents deliuered as prisoners to the officers of the Tower. Then spake the duke of Norffolke, and said: My lord, the king our souereigne lord hath commanded that you shall haue his lawes ministred with fauour and right to you. [...] Hall. in [...] f [...]l. lxxxvj. Wherefore if you haue anie other thing to say for your selfe, you shall be heard. Then he was com|manded to withdraw him, and so was led into Para|dise, a house so named. The lords went to councell a great while, and after tooke their places.

Then said the duke of Norffolke to the duke of Suffolke;The duke of Buckingham [...]nuinced of h [...]gh treason. What say you of sir Edward duke of Buc|kingham touching the high treasons? The duke of Suffolke answered; He is giltie: & so said the mar|ques and all the other earls and lords. Thus was this prince duke of Buckingham found giltie of high treason, by a duke, a marques, seuen earles, & twelue barons. The duke was brought to the barre sore cha|sing, and swet maruellouslie; & after he had made his reuerence, he paused a while. The duke of Norffolke as iudge said; Sir Edward, you haue heard how you be indicted of high treason, you pleaded thereto not giltie, putting your selfe to the péeres of the realme, which haue found you giltie. Then the duke of Norf|folke wept and said;

The duke of Bucking|hams iudge|ment pronoun+ced b [...] the [...]ke of Norf|f [...]ke.

[...] Grafton. [...] St [...]w.

The duke of Buckingham said, My lord of Norf|folke, you haue said as a traitor should be said vnto, but I was neuer anie: but my lords I nothing ma|ligne for that you haue doone to me, but the eternall God forgiue you my death, and I doo: I shall neuer sue to the king for life, howbeit he is a gratious prince, and more grace may come from him than I desire. I desire you my lords and all my fellowes to pray for me. Then was the edge of the axe turned towards him, and he led into a barge. Sir Thomas Louell desired him to sit on the cushins and carpet ordeined for him. He said nay; for when I went to Westminster I was duke of Buckingham, now I am but Edward Bohune the most caitife of the world. Thus they landed at the Temple, where recei|ued him sir Nicholas Uawse & sir William Sands baronets, and led him through the citie, w [...]o desired euer the people to pray for him, of whome some wept and lamented, and said: This is the end of euill life, God forgiue him, he was a proud prince, it is pitie that hée behaued him so against his king and liege lord, whome God preserue. Thus about foure of the clocke he was brought as a cast man to the Tower.
