Compare 1577 edition: 1 The capteine of Ard, monsieur de Dampiere, ha|uing got for a supplie from the French campe at Bul|logne, the companie of the men of armes that be|longed to the duke of Orleance, led by his lieute|nant monsieur de Tauannes, chanced on a daie to incounter with the Englishmen guided by that va|liant baron the lord Greie of Wilton, capteine of the towne of Guisnes, who being accompanied with a number of valiant gentlemen & soldiers, distressed their enimies, & slue the capteine of Ard the foresaid lord de Dampiere there in field. Diuerse other skir|mishes and incounters chanced in that summer, on the further side the seas. And moreouer, now after that the French nauie was withdrawen (as ye haue heard) from the coasts about Portesmouth, that mar|tiall chiefteine, sir Iohn Dudleie, lord Lisle, and high admerall of England, hauing all his ships, men, mu|nition, & furniture readie, set forward from Portes|mouth hauen, to haue fought with the Frenchmen, if they had still kept the seas, but they were with|draw [...]e home into harborough.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Wherevpon the lord admerall meaning to re|uenge their brauados, and presumptuous attempts made at Portesmouth, and in the Ile of Wight, ap|proched to the coasts of Normandie, and landed with six thousand men at Treport, burnt the suburbes of that towne, with the abbeie, and certeine villages and houses thereabouts. Also they destroied thirtie ships, and a barke there found in the hauen: and after they had wrought their pleasures, they returned to the sea, and so home, not hauing lost past fourtéene persons in the execution of this whole enterprise. Of this great spoile & ouerthrow giuen at Treport, by the kings admerall, I find these verses remembred:

—Treportem passibus aequis

T [...]eporte oppi|dum Galliae ma|ritimum à Iohanne Dud|leio praefecto re|giae clas [...]is diri|pitur & flam|mis absumitur. Ordine seruato (qui mus est militis) intrant:

Obuius vt quisque est, is stricto sternitur ense,

Ast alius volucri traiectus membra sagitta,

Occidit exanguis, foedátque cruore plateas.

Dum reclusa alius vult prospectare fenestra,

Nec conferre pedem, nec aperto praelia Marte

Commiscere audet, glandis transfigitur ictu.

Omne genus telorum ad caedem immittitur atram.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 In this meane while monsieur de Biez, being in|camped néere to Bullogne with such a puissant ar|mie (as before you haue heard) busied about the buil|ding of a fort, there was not such diligence vsed ther|in, as was promised on his part in accomplishing the same, to the French kings great displeasure (as some write) who had meant with that armie (if this fort had béene finished at the appointed time) to haue gone to besiege the towne and castell of Guisnes: but now the time being prolonged, and not without some suspicion least monsieur de Biez cared not how long the warres indured in that sort, so as he might command ouer so manie princes and great lords as were there vnder his gouernance, at length before the fort were fullie finished, he remooued to mount Lambert with the more part of the armie, preten|ding as though he meant to fight with the English|men, the which (as he said) he vnderstood were purpo|sed to come with a conuoie of vittels from Calis to Bullogne.
