Compare 1577 edition: 1 The cardinall to mooue them thereto, bare them in hand that the lords had agreed to foure shillings of the pound, which was vntrue: for they had granted nothing, but staid till they might vnderstand what the commons would doo. The king therefore hauing knowledge of this, Polydor. and such other notable lies vtte|red by the cardinall, reprooued him therefore verie sharpelie,Cardinall [...] by the king. and said that yer it were long he would looke to things himselfe without anie substitute. A maruellous matter to consider how much the cardi|nall was cooled herewith, and how lowlie for a while he bare himselfe, so that thereby it well appeared how the maisters sharpenesse now and then, dooth much to refraine the euill nature of the seruant. But the car|dinall within a few daies after, pacifieng the kings displeasure toward him, became nothing the better.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 After that the foresaid grant was passed and ac|corded, the parlement was proroged till the tenth of Iune. During which prorogation, the common peo|ple said to the burgesses; Edw. Hall in H. 8. fol. Cx. Sirs, we heare say you will grant foure shillings of the pound, we aduise you to doo so that you may go home: with manie euill words and threatnings. In this season the cardinall by his power legantine dissolued the cõuocation at Pouls called by the archbishop of Canturburie,The cardinall dissolueth the archbishop of Canturbu|ries conuo|cation. calling him and all the cleargie to his conuocation at Westmin|ster, which was neuer séene before in England (saith Hall) whereof maister Skelton a merrie poet wrote:

Gentle Paule lay downe thy sweard,

For Pe [...]er of Westminster hath shauen thy beard.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 When the parlement was begun againe, the gen|tlemen that saw themselues charged with twelue pence more of the pound for their lands, did so much, that it was granted, that men of fiftie pounds and vpward in goods, should also pay twelue pence of e|uerie pound in the fourth yeare: which could not bee brought about but with great adoo, and much grud|ging of the burgesses and commons. The one and thirtith of Iulie, the parlement was adiourned [...] Westminster, & there continuing till the thirtéen [...] of August, was that day at nine of the clock at night dissolued. During the time of this parlement, the seuen and twentith of Aprill,Arthur Plan|tagenet crea|ted vicount Lisle. was sir Arthur Plan|tagenet, bastard sonne to king Edward the fourth, at Bridewell created vicount Lisle, in right of his wife, which was wife to Edmund Dudleie beheaded.
