Compare 1577 edition: 1 Now, although it came sometimes about sit for their purpose, yet it continued not long in that end; so as if therevpon they tooke the sea at anie time, they were forced to returne backe againe to land yer they could passe halfe the way ouer. And thus being diuerse times vnder saile, in hope to passe the seas hi|ther into England, they were still driuen backe a|gaine, till the thirtéenth of Aprill being Easter éeuen; on which day the wind comming fauorablie about, they tooke the seas, and sailed forward towards this land. The countesse of Warwike, hauing a ship of ad|uantage, arriued before the other at Portesmouth, and from thence she went to Southhampton; mea|ning to haue gone to Weimouth, where she vnder|stood that the quéene was landed: but here had shee knowledge of the losse of Barnet field, and that hir husband was there slaine.The countesse of Warwike taketh sanc|tuarie.
