In conclusion, sentence was giuen by the lord chancellor that they should paie a thousand marks a peece, he that paid least; and that they should go to prison againe, and there re|main till further order were taken for their punish|ment.

the lord Iohn Greie was deliuered out of the tower, and set at libertie. Upon saturdaie the tenth of Nouember, the shiriffes of London had commandement to take an inuentarie of each one of their goods, which were EEBO page image 1122 of maister Throckmortons quest, & to seale vp their doores, which was doone the same daie.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 Maister Whetston, and maister Lucar, and mai|ster Kightlie, were adiudged to paie two thousand pounds a péece, and the rest a thousand marks a péece, to be paid within one fortnight after.

The 12 of Nouember being mondaie, the parlement began at Westminster, to the beginning whereof both the king and quéene rode in their parlement robes, ha|uing two swords borne before them. The earle of Penbroke bare his sword, and the earle of West|merland bare the quéenes. They had two caps of maintenance likewise borne before them: whereof the earle of Arundell bare the one, and the earle of Shrewesburie the other.Cardinall Poole arri| [...]eth at Douer During this parlement, cardinall Poole landed at Douer vpon wednesdaie, being the 21 of Nouember, who being receiued with much honor in all other countries through which hee had passed, was receiued here at the first, with no great shew, for the causes aboue mentioned. The same daie on the which he arriued, an act passed in the parlement house, for his restitution in bloud, vt|terlie repealing (as false and most slanderous) that act made against him in K. Henrie the eights time. And on the next daie being thursdaie and the 22 of Nouember,An act for the restitution in [...] of cardi|nall Poole. the king and queene both came to the parlement house to giue their roiall assent, and to e|stablish this act against his comming. On saturdaie the foure and twentith of Nouember, he came to the court, and after went to Lambeth where his lodging was prepared.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 On wednesdaie following in the after noone, he came into the parlement house,Cardinall Poole cõmeth [...] the parle|ment house. being at that pre|sent kept in the great chamber of the court of the White hall, for that the quéene by reason of sicknesse was not able to go abrode (where the king and quéene sitting vnder the cloth of estate, and the cardinall sit|ting on the right hand, with all the other estates of the realme being present) and the knights and bur|gesses of the common house being also called thither, the bishop of Winchester being lord chancellor, spake in this maner.

So soone as the lord chancellor had ended his tale, the cardinall began and made a long & solemne oration, the which for shortnesse sake I haue collectd into these few articles, remitting the reader to mai|ster Foxes Acts and Monuments, where they shall find the same wholie and entierlie as by him it was vttered.
