Compare 1577 edition: 1 But when both these armies comming within danger either of other, set in full order of battell on both sides, they stood still at the first, beholding either others demeanor, being not distant in sunder past thrée bow shoots. And when they had on both parts thus staied a good while without dooing anie thing, (except that certeine of the French horsemen aduan|cing forwards, betwixt both the hosts, were by the English archers constreined to returne backe) aduise was taken amongst the Englishmen, what was best for them to doo. Therevpon all things considered, it was determined, that sith the Frenchmen would not come forward, the king with his armie imbat|telled (as yee haue hard) should march towards them, and so leauing their trusse and baggage in the village where they lodged the night before, onelie with their weapons, armour, and stakes prepared for the pur|pose, as yée haue heard.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 These made somewhat forward, before whome there went an old knight sir Thomas Erpingham (a man of great experience in the warre) with a war|der in his hand;The English gaue the on|set. and when he cast vp his warder, all the armie shouted, but that was a signe to the ar|chers in the medow, which therwith shot wholie alto|gither at the vauward of the Frenchmen, who when they perceiued the archers in the medow,The two ar|mies ioine battell. and saw they could not come at them for a ditch that was be|twixt them, with all hast set vpon the fore ward of king Henrie, but yer they could ioine, the archers in the forefront, and the archers on that side which stood in the medow, so wounded the footmen, galled the horsses, and combred the men of armes, that the foot|men durst not go forward, the horssemen ran togi|ther vpõ plumps without order, some ouerthrew such as were next them, and the horsses ouerthrew their masters, and so at the first ioining, the Frenchmen were foulie discomforted, and the Englishmen high|lie incouraged.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 When the French vauward was thus brought to confusion, the English archers cast awaie their bowes, & tooke into their hands, axes, malls, swords,The [...] of the Fren [...] discomfited. bils, and other hand-weapons, and with the same slue the Frenchmen, vntill they came to the middle ward. Then approched the king, and so incouraged his peo|ple, that shortlie the second battell of the Frenchmen was ouerthrowne, and dispersed,Their [...] beaten. not without great slaughter of men: howbeit, diuerse were releeued by their varlets, and conueied out of the field. The Eng|lishmen were so busied in fighting, and taking of the prisoners at hand, that they followed not in chase of their enimies, nor would once breake out of their ar|raie of battell. Yet sundrie of the Frenchmen stronglie withstood the fiercenesse of the English, when they came to handie strokes, so that the fight sometime was doubtfull and perillous. Yet as part of the French horssemen set their course to haue en|tred vpon the kings battell, with the stakes ouer|throwne, they were either taken or slaine. Thus this battell continued thrée long houres.
