¶ In this yeare in Maie, Edw. Hall in H. 8. fol. Cxci [...] the bishop of London EEBO page image 914 caused all his new testaments which he had bought with manie other bookes,Tindals te|staments burned. to be brought into Paules churchyard in London, and there were openlie bur|ned. In the end of this yeare, the wild Irishmen, knowing the earle of Kildare to be in England, en|tered his land,The wild I|rish spoile the earle of Kil|dares coun|trie, &c. and spoiled and burnt his countrie, with diuerse other countries. And the erle of Osserie being the kings deputie made little resistance, for lacke of power. Wherfore the king sent the earle of Kildare into Ireland, & with him sir William Ske|uington knight, master of the kings ordinance, and diuerse gunners with him, which so politikelie orde|red themselues, that their enimies were glad to of|fer amends, and to treat for truce: & so sir William Skeuington the next yeere returned into England, leauing there the earle of Kildare for the kings de|putie.

Now I will returne to the execution of the trea|tie of Cambreie,The executi|on of the trea|tie accorded vpon at Cam|breie. in the which it was agréed, that the ladie Eleanor and the French kings children should be deliuered when the ransome appointed was paied as you haue heard in the last yeare. Wherefore the French king gathered monie of his subiects with all speed, and when the monie was readie, he sent the great master of France called Annas de Memoran|cie and diuerse other nobles to Baion with the mo|nie, and to receiue the ladie and the children. And thi|ther came to them the great constable of Castile and monsieur Prat for the emperour, & there the crowns were weied and touched: and what fault soeuer the Spaniards found in them they would not receiue a great number of them, and so they carried the chil|dren backe from Fontarbie into Spaine. Thus the great master of France and his companie laie still at Baion, without hauing his purpose performed, from March till the end of Iune, and longer had lien if the king of England had not sent sir Francis Brian to Baion to warrant the paiement: where vp|on the daie of deliuerance was appointed to be on saint Peters daie in Iune.

At which daie the great master, with one and thir|tie mulets laden with the crownes came to the one side of the riuer of Audaie,The deliue|rance of the French kings children. which riuer departeth Spaine and France, and there taried till the first daie of Iulie: on which daie the ladie Eleanor and the children were put in two great boates, hauing onelie twelue gentlemen of Spaine with them: and in like maner the great master with two great boats, in the which the mony was, and twelue gentle|men with him. All these boats met at a bridge made in the middest of the riuer. The constable of Spaine and his twelue gentlemen met with the great ma|ster of France and his twelue gentlemen on the bridge: and after a little salutation, the Frenchmen entered into the two boats where the ladie and the two children were; and the Spaniards into the two boats where the monie was, and then ech part hasted to land. Thus were the French kings wife and chil|dren deliuered into his hands, for which deliuerance was great ioy and triumph made in France: and al|so in Iulie were fiers made in London and diuerse other places for the same consideration and cause.]
