Compare 1577 edition: 1 The duke of Summerset set foorth this matter the more vehementlie, bicause he knew perfectlie, that the duke of Yorke dailie imagined with him|selfe, how to get the crowne, and to depose and de|stroie both the king and him.Destinie can|not be auoided But destinie cannot by anie mans deuise be letted, and manie things (to appéerance) declared the duke of Yorkes innocencie in this case. First, his frée and voluntarie comming to the king, without constreint, when he was partlie of puissance able to haue incountred with the kings whole power. Secondlie, his humble submission, and reasonable requests, as well on his owne behalfe, as for the poore commons: which might argue that he sought for no souereigntie.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Whilest the councell treated of sauing or dispat|ching of this duke of Yorke, a rumor sprang through London, that Edward earle of March, sonne and heire apparant to the said duke, with a great armie of Marchmen, was comming toward London: which tidings sore appalled the quéene and the whole coun|cell. Beside this, the verie same daie came ambassa|dours from the cheefe citizens and magistrats of the citie of Burdeaux; whereof the chéefe were, the earle of Kendale, and the lord de Lesparre; which signified to the councell, that if they would send an armie in|to Gascoigne, the people of the countrie would re|uolt from the French part, and eftsoones become English. These two things sore troubled the heads of the councell, which, least inward sedition might hin|der outward conquests,Occasion that set the duke of Yorke frée. set the duke of Yorke at li|bertie, and permitted him to go to his castell of Wig|more, in the marches of Wales, by whose absence the duke of Summerset rose in such high fauour, both with the king and quéene, that his word onelie ruled, and his voice alone was heard.

¶Neuerthelesse the said duke of Yorke had first made his submission, and tooke his oth to be true, Abr. Fl. ex I.
