Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 In this meane while the bishop of Durham with a great armie besieged the castell of Tickhill; Rog. Houed. Diuerse sieges held at one time. and earle Dauid brother to the king of Scots, with Ra|nulfe earle of Chester, and earle Ferrers, besieged the castell of Notingham, whilest at the same present the archbishop of Canturburie with a great power besieged Marleburgh castell, the which within a few daies was rendred into his hands, the liues and lims of them within saued. Also the castell of Lancaster was deliuered to him, the which the same archbishops brother had in kéeping vnder earle Iohn, and like|wise the abbeie of S. Michaels mount in Cornwall,S. Michaels mount. the which abbeie Henrie de la Pomerey chasing out the moonks, had fortified against the king, and hea|ring newes of the kings returne home, died (as it was thought) for méere gréefe and feare. These three places were surrendered to the archbishop before the kings returne, but Tickhill & Notingham held out.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 King Richard being returned into England, and vnderstanding both how the French king made warre against him in Normandie, and that the state of England was not a little disquieted, by the pra|ctise of his brother earle Iohn and his complices, spe|ciallie by reason that diuerse castels were defended by such as he had placed in them, he thought good with all speed to cut off such occasions as might bréed a further mischéefe. Wherevpon he first went to No|tingham,The king go|eth to Noting+ham and win|neth the castel. and within thrée daies after his comming thither (which was on the daie of the Annunciation of our ladie) he constreined them that kept the castell there in his brothers name, to yeeld themselues sim|plie vnto his mercie, Rog. Houed. after they had abidden diuerse assaults, by the which euen the first daie the vtter gates were burnt, and certeine defenses destroied, which they had made before the same.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 4 The cheefe of them that were within this castell to defend it were these, William de Uendeuall co|nestable there, Roger de Mountbegun, Rafe Mur|dac, Philip de Worceter and Ranulfe de Worceter brethren. The morow after the surrender was made, the king went to Clipstone, and rode into the forrest of Shirewood, where he had neuer béene before, the view whereof pleased him greatlie.The forrest [...] Shirewood. The castell of Tickhill was likewise at the same time yéelded vn|to the bishop of Durham, who receiued it to the kings vse, and them that kept it as prisoners, without anie composition, but standing simplie to the K. mercie. For although those that had these castels in keeping, were sufficientlie prouided of all necessarie things for defense, yet the sudden comming of the king (whom they thought verelie would neuer haue re|turned) put them in such feare, that they wist not what to make of the matter,The castell of Tickhill yee [...]|ded. and so (as men amazed) they yéelded without anie further exception. The bi|shop of Durham bringing those prisoners with him which had yéelded vp this castell of Tickhill, Rog. Houed. came to the king the 27 daie of March, the verie daie before that Notingham castell was giuen ouer.
