For the king thereof, surnamed Monoculus, that is, with one eie, who had held that kingdome of the king of England, being latelie slaine, one of his kinsemen got possession of that kingdome, and held it without acknowledging any subiection to king Henrie, nor would obeie his officers, bicause of the losses and damages which they did practise against the Irish people, without occasi|on (as they alleadged) by reason whereof the king of Corke also rebelled against the king of England and his people, and so that realme was full of trouble.

In that time there was also through all England a great multitude of Iewes, and bicause they had no place appointed them where to burie those that died, but onelie at London, they were constreined to bring all their dead corpses thither from all parts of the realme. To ease them therfore of that inconuenience, they obteined of king Henrie a grant, to haue a place assigned them in e|uerie quarter where they dwelled, to burie their dead bodies. The same yeare was the bodie of S. Amphi|bulus the martyr, who was instructor to saint Albone found, not farre from the towne of S.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 In the meane time, king Henrie passed ouer into Normandie, hearing that the old grudge betwixt him & king Lewes began to be renewed vpon this occasion, that whereas king Henrie had receiued the French kings daughter Alice, promised in mariage vnto his sonne Richard, to remaine in England with him, till she were able to companie with hir husband, king Henrie being of a dissolute life, and giuen much to the pleasure of the bodie (a vice which was graffed in the bone and therefore like to sticke fast in the flesh, for as it is said,

Wherefore the French king imagining (vpon consideration of the other kings former loose life) what an inconuenience & in|famie might redound to him and his, R. Houed. bethought him|selfe that
Turpe senex miles turpe senilis amor,and therefore déemed iustlie that such a vile reproch wrought against him in his bloud, was in no wise to be suffered, but rather preuented, resisted & withstood. Herevpon he complained to the pope, who for re|dresse thereof, sent one Peter a preest, & cardinall in|tituled of saint Grisogone as legat from him into France, with commission to put Normandie and all the lands that belonged to king Henrie vnder in|derdiction, if he would not suffer the mariage to be solemnized without delaie betwixt his sonne Richard and Alice the French kings daughter.
