Compare 1577 edition: 1 His dispositi|on of mind.As he was comelie of personage, so was he of sto|mach more couragious and fierce, so that not with|out cause, he obteined the surname of Cueur de li|on, that is to saie, The lions hart. Moreouer, he was courteous to his souldiors, and towards his fréends and strangers that resorted vnto him verie liberall, but to his enimies hard and not to be intreated, desi|rous of battell, an enimie to rest and quietnesse, ve|rie eloquent of speech and wise, but readie to enter into ieopardies, and that without feare or forecast in time of greatest perils.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 These were his vertuous qualities, but his vices (if his vertues,The vices that were in king Richard. his age, and the wars which he main|teined were throughlie weied) were either none at all, or else few in number, and not verie notorious. He was noted of the common people to be partlie subiect vnto pride, which surelie for the most part fo|loweth stoutnesse of mind: of incontinencie, to the which his youth might happilie be somewhat bent: and of couetousnesse, into the which infamie most ca|piteins and such princes as commonlie follow the warres doo oftentimes fall, when of necessitie they are driuen to exact monie, as well of fréends as eni|mies, to mainteine the infinit charges of their wars.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Hereof it came, that on a time whiles he soiourned in France about his warres, which he held against K. Philip, there came vnto him a French préest whose name was Fulco, who required the K. in any wise to put from him thrée abhominable daughters which he had, and to bestow them in marriage,Fulco a préest least God pu|nished him for them. Thou liest hypocrite (said the king) to thy verie face, for all the world knoweth that I haue not one daughter. I lie not (said the préest) for thou hast three daughters, one of them is called pride, the second couetousnesse, and the third lecherie. With that the king called to him his lords & barons, and said to them;

This hypocrite heere hath required me to marrie awaie my three daughters, which (as he saith) I cherish, nourish, foster and mainteine, that is to say, pride, couetousnesse, and lecherie. And now that I haue found out necessarie & fit husbands for them, I will doo it with effect, and seeke no more de|laies. I therefore bequeath my pride to the high min|ded templers and hospitallers, which are as proud as Lucifer himselfe. My couetousnesse I giue vnto the white moonks, otherwise called of the Cisteaux order, for they couet the diuell and all. My lecherie I com|mit to the prelats of the church, who haue most plea|sure and felicitie therein.
