Oswins at Tinmouth, Polydor. from whence he was quicklie taken, and brought as prisoner to the kings presence. Notwithstanding, those that re|mained within the castell, vpon trust of the strength of that place, would not yeeld by anie meanes; but stood still to their tackling: whervpon the king caused the earle their maister to be brought foorth before the gates, and threatned that he should haue his eies put out, if they within did not streightwaies giue vp the hold into his hands. Herevpon it came to passe, that the castell was yéelded,Banbourgh yéelded to the king. and those that kept it were diuerslie punished, some by banishment, some by loo|sing their eares, & diuerse by the losse of their hands, EEBO page image 22 in example to others.

For he saw that the Welshmen would not ioine in battell with him in the plaine field, but kept themselues still a|loofe within the woods and marishes, and aloft vpon mountaines: albeit oftentimes when they saw ad|uantage, they would come foorth, and taking the En|glishmen and Normans at vnawares, kill manie, and wound no small numbers, he still pursued them by hils and dales, though more to the losse of his owne people than the hurt of the Welshmen, who easilie eschewed the danger of battell, and still at the straites and combersome passages distressed manie of their enimies: whereby the king at length percei|uing that he could not preuaile against them, ceassed further to follow on with his purposed voiage, and therewith returned home,The king re|turneth out of Wales with dishonour.
