Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 In the eighteenth yeare of his reigne, the king mar|ried two of his daughters, Anno Reg. 18. 1290 that is to saie, Ioane de Acres vnto Gilbert de Clare earle of Glocester, and the ladie Margaret vnto the lord Iohn sonne to the duke of Brabant. H. Marle. N. Triuet. ¶ The king ordeined, that all the wooll, which should be sold vnto strangers, should be brought vnto Sandwich, where the staple thereof was kept long time after. In the same yeare was a parlement holden at Westminster,The statutes of Westmin|ster the third established. wherein the sta|tutes of Westminster the third were ordeined. It was also decreed, that all the Iewes should auoid out of the land, in consideration whereof, a fifteenth was granted to the king, and so héervpon were the Iewes banished out of all the kings dominions,The Iewes banished out of England. and neuer since could they obteine any priuilege to returne hi|ther againe. All their goods not mooueable were con|fiscated, with their taillies and obligations; but all o|ther their goods that were mooueable, togither with their coine of gold and siluer, the king licenced them to haue and conuey with them. A sort of the richest of them, being shipped with their treasure in a migh|tie [...]all ship which they had hired, when the fame was vnder saile, and got downe the Thames towards the mouth of the riuer beyond Quinborowe, the mai|ster mariner be thought him of a wile, and caused his men to cast anchor, and so rode at the same, till the ship by ebbing of the streame remained on the drie sands. The maister herewith entised the Iewes to walke out with him on land for recreation. And at length, when he vnderstood the tide to be comming in, he got him backe to the ship, whither he was drawne vp by a cord. The Iewes made not so much hast as he did, bicause they were not ware of the dan|ger. But when they perceiued how the matter stood, they cried to him for helpe: howbeit he told them, that they ought to crie rather vnto Moses, by whose conduct their fathers passed through the red sea, and therefore, if they would call to him for helpe, he was able inough to helpe them out of those raging flouds, which now came in vpon them: they cried indéed, but no succour appeared,Iewes drow|ned. and so they were swallowed vp in water. The maister returned with the ship, and told the king how he had vsed the matter, and had both thanks and reward, as some haue written. But other affirme (and more truelie as should seeme) that diuerse of those mariners, Chro. Dun. which dealt so wickedlie against the Iewes, were hanged for their wicked practise, and so receiued a iust reward of their frau|dulent and mischéeuous dealing. But now to the purpose.

He receiued the monie aforehand, but letted by other businesse at home, he went not foorth vpon that iour|nie.

Elianor or Herdelie (as some haue) neere to Lincolne, the king being as then on his waie towards the borders of Scotland: but ha|uing now lost the iewell which he most estéemed, he returned towards London to accompanie the corps vnto Westminster, Thom. Walsin. where it was buried in S. Ed|wards chapell, at the féet of king Henrie the third. She was a godlie and modest princesse, full of pitie, and one that shewed much fauour to the English na|tion,The praise of the quéene deceassed. readie to releeue euerie mans greefe that sustei|ned wrong, and to make them fréends that were at discord, so farre as in hir laie. In euerie towne and place, where the corps rested by the waie, the king caused a crosse of cunning workmanship to be erec|ted in remembrance of hir, and in the same was a picture of hir ingrauen. Two of the like crosses were set vp at London, one at Charing,Charing|crosse & other erected. and the other in Westcheape.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 About the same time, bicause the king should be the more willing to go into the holie land, as he had promised to doo, hauing monie to furnish him foorth, the pope granted vnto him the tenth of the church of England, Scotland and Ireland, according to the true value of all the reuenues belonging vnto the same for six yeares.The tenth of spirituall re|uenues grã|ted to the K. He wrote to the bishops of Lin|colne and Winchester, that the same tenth should be laid vp in monasteries and abbeies, till the king was entred into the sea, called Mare Maggiore, forwards on his iournie eastwards, and then to be paid to his vse. But the king afterwards caused the collectors to make paiment to him of the same tenth gathered for three yeares, and laid vp in monasteries, although he set not one foot forward in that iournie, as letted through other businesse.
