Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Beside this, Henrie Bourchier brother to Thomas archbishop of Canturburie, was created earle of Es|sex; and William lord Fauconbridge was made earle of Kent. To this Henrie lord Bourchier, a man highlie renowned in martiall feats, Richard duke of Yorke long before this time, had giuen his sister Eli|zabeth in mariage, of whome he begat foure sonnes, William, Thomas, Iohn, and Henrie: the which William being a man of great industrie, wit, and prouidence in graue and weightie matters, maried the ladie Anne Wooduile, descended of high paren|tage, whose mother Iaquet was daughter to Peter of Lutzenburgh earle of saint Paule, by the which Anne he had lord Henrie earle of Essex, one daugh|ter named Cicile, maried to Water lord Ferrers of Chartleie and an other called Isabell, which died vn|maried.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The earle of Kent was appointed about this time to kéepe the seas, being accompanied with the lord Audeleie, the lord Clinton, sir Iohn Howard, Iohn Stow. sir Ri|chard Walgraue, and others, to the number of ten thousand, who landing in Britaine, wan the towne of Conquet, and the Isle of Reth, and after returned. When all things were brought in order, Anno Reg. 2. The duke of Summerset & other, submit them to king Edward. and framed as king Edward in maner could wish, Henrie duke of Summerset, sir Rafe Persie, and diuerse other, being in despaire of all good chance to happen vnto king Henrie, came humblie, & submitted themselues vnto king Edward, whome he gentlie receiued. Which clemencie notwithstanding both the one and the other (when time serued) reuolted from king Ed|ward, and betooke themselues to take part with Hen|rie, vnto whom they had béene adherents before: bi|cause they grew in hope that in the end the confede|rats, to whom they so closelie did cleaue both in affec|tion and seriousnesse of labour (though they preten|ded a temporall renunciation of all dutie and seruice for their securitie sake) should haue the honor of vic|torie against their gainstanders. But as commonlie the euents of enterprises fall out flat contrarie to EEBO page image 666 mens expectation and hope; so came it to passe with these, whose hope though it were gréene and flourie in the prosecuting of their affaires, yet in the knitting vp of the matter and vnluckie successe thereof, it fell out in triall to be a flattering, a false, and a fruitlesse hope: and therefore that is a true and a wise sen|tence of the comiall poet well seruing the purpose:

Compare 1577 edition: 1 All this season was king Henrie in Scotland, and quéene Margaret (being in France) found such friendship at the French kings hands,1463 Anno Reg. 3. that she ob|teined a crue of fiue hundred Frenchmen, with the which she arriued in Scotland.The quéene returneth foorth of France. And after that she had reposed hir selfe a time, she sailed with hir gallant band of those ruffling Frenchmen toward Newca|stell, and landed at Tinmouth. But whether she were afraid of hir owne shadow, or that the Frenchmen cast too manie doubts; the truth is, that the whole ar|mie returned to their ships, and a tempest rose so sud|denlie, that if she had not taken a small carauell, and that with good spéed arriued at Berwike, she had beene taken at that present time by hir aduersaries.
