Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 This mariage séemed to manie both infortunate and vnprofitable to the realme of England, and that for manie causes. First, the king had not one penie with hir;An [...]minous mariage. and for the fetching of hir, the marquesse of Suffolke demanded a whole fiftéenth in open parle|ment.

And fur|thermore, the earle of Arminacke tooke such displea|sure with the king of England for this mariage, that he became vtter enimie to the crowne of England, and was the cheefe cause that the Englishmen were expelled out of the whole duchie of Aquitaine.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 But most of all it should séeme, that God was displeased with this mariage: for after the confir|mation thereof, the kings freends fell from him, both in England and in France, the lords of his realme fell at diuision, and the commons rebelled in such sort, that finallie after manie fields foughten, and manie thousands of men slaine, the king at length was deposed, and his sonne killed, and this quéene sent home againe, with as much miserie and sorrow as she was receiued with pompe and triumph: such is the instabilitie of worldlie felicitie, and so waue|ring is false flattering fortune.
