Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Touching the folks of the countrie, there came few or none to him. For by the incensing of such as had bin sent into those parts from the erle of Warwike, and other his aduersaries, the people were shrewdlie induced to stand against him. But yet, in respect of the good will that manie of them had borne to his fa|ther, they could haue béene content, that he should haue inioied his right to his due inheritance of the duchie of Yorke, but in no wise to the title of the crowne. And herevpon they suffered him to passe, not séeking to annoie him, till they might vnderstand more of his purposed meaning. The king, perceiuing how the people were bent, noised abroad that hée came to make none other chalenge but to his inhe|ritance of the duchie of Yorke: and withall ment to passe first into the citie of Yorke, and so forward to|wards London, to incounter with his aduersaries that were in the south parts.
Compare 1577 edition: 1 For although his néerest waie had béene through Lincolneshire: yet bicause in taking that waie hée must haue gone againe to the water, in passing ouer Humber; he doubted least it would haue bin thought that he had withdrawne himselfe to the sea for feare. And to auoid the rumors that might haue beene spred thereof, to the hinderance of his whole cause, he refu|sed that waie, and tooke this other, still bruting it (as before we said) that his comming was not to cha|lenge the crowne, but onelie to be restored vnto his fathers right and inheritance of the duchie of Yorke, which was descended to him from his father. And here it séemed that the colour of iustice hath euer such a force in it selfe amongst all men, that where before few or none of the commons could be found that would offer themselues to take his part: yet now that he did (as they thought) claime nothing but that which was his right, they began streight to haue a li|king of his cause.
Compare 1577 edition: 1 And where there were gathered to the number of six or seuen thousand men in diuerse places, vnder the leading chieflie of a priest and of a gentleman called Martine de la Mare, in purpose to haue stopped his passage:Martine de la Mare or Martine of the sea. now the same persons tooke occasion to as|sist him. And when he perceiued mens minds to bée well qualified with this feined deuise, he marched foorth till he came to Beuerleie, which stood in his di|rect waie as he passed toward Yorke.He passeth to|ward Yorke. He sent also to Kingston vpon Hull, distant from thence six miles, willing that he might be there receiued: but the in|habitants, who had bene laboured by his aduersaries, refused in anie wise to grant therevnto.
