Compare 1577 edition: 1 After this, he was conueied foorth on his iournie homewards,The king [...]rosecuteth the discourte|s [...]e of the em|perour in his [...]eclaration. still garded & not set at libertie. And it was told him, that after he came into France, it was conuenient that he should giue his faith, for that it was knowne well enough, that what he did or promised in Spaine, it nothing auailed. And fur|ther he remembred not that the emperour had told him at anie time, that if he performed not the con|tents of the treatie, he would hold him for a breaker of his faith, & though he had, he was not in his liber|tie to make anie answer. Two things therefore said he, in this case are to be considered. One, that the tre|tie was violentlie wroong out from them that could not bind his person, and the which (as to the residue) had béene accomplished by his moother, deliuering his sonnes in hostage. The other thing was his pre|tended faith, on which they can make [...]o ground, sith he was not set at libertie. And herevnto he shewed manie reasons, to prooue that his enimies could not pretend in right that they had his faith.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Further he said, that in matter of combat there was the assailant,The field, that is, a place where they may safelie come to fight in [...] be|fore indiffe|rent iudges. which ought to giue suertie of the field, and the defendant the weapons. Herewith al|so he caused a letter to be read, which the emperour had written to maister Iohn de Caluimont presi|dent of Burdeaux, the said kings ambassadour in the court of the said emperour: the tenor of which letter imported, that the emperour put the said ambassa|dour in remembrance of spéech which he had vttered to the said ambassadour in Granado, Guic. pag. 1091. repeating the same in substance as followeth. That the king his maister had doone naughtilie in not keeping his faith which he had of him, acording to the treatie of Ma|drill: and if the king would saie the contrarie, I will (said the emperour) mainteine the quarrell with my bodie against his. And these be the same words that I spake to the king your maister in Madrill, that I would hold him for a lewd and naughtie man, if he brake the faith which I had of him, &c.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Then after the said letter had béene read, he caused also his answer made by way of a cartell to be read, the tenor whereof ye haue heard before. That doone, he continued his tale, in declaring what order he had obserued to procure the emperour to the combat, without all shifting delaies: so as if the herald now come from the emperour would vse anie talke, other than to deliuer him an authentike writing for suer|tie of the field, and not obserue the contents of his safe conduct, he meant not to giue him audience. And herevpon was the herald called to come in, and de|clare his message. Who apparelled in his cote of armes, made his appéerance before the king there sit|ting, accompanied (as ye haue heard.) Unto whome the king said.
