Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 There were a seauen hundred of them that fled from Algate, and other places, flaine outright, be|side the prisoners. And yet there were fiers burning all at once at Algate, Bishops gate, & on the bridge, and manie houses consumed with the same fiers. But now the bastard, vnder whome that companie was directed that had set fire on the bridge, when he saw that he might not preuaile, and vnderstood the e|uill succes of those which he had set ouer the Thames, he withdrew also, and left the bridge. Here the har|die manhood of Rafe Iosselin alderman is not to be passed with silence;Rafe Iosse|lin. who (after he had valiantlie resi|sted the bastard & his band that assaulted the bridge) vpon their retire sallied foorth vpon them, and fol|lowing them in chase alongst the water side, till they came beyond Ratcliffe, slue and tooke verie manie of them.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 The bastard notwithstanding gathered his com|panies togither,The bastard incampeth on Blackeheath. and with such as were willing to re|maine with him incamped on Blackeheath, by the space of thrée daies next insuing, to wit, the sixteenth, seauentéenth, and eightéenth of Maie, vtterlie despai|ring of his wished preie, sith he had béene repelled from London, to his vtter confusion. And now to conclude, hearing that king Edward was comming with a right puissant armie, the said bastard and his people durst no longer abide; but brake vp and disper|sed themselues, some one waie, and some an other. They of Calis got them thither againe with all spéed, and such as were of other countries repaired likewise to their homes, and manie of the Kentish|men went also to their houses. The bastard with his mariners, and such riotous rebels, robbers, and wic|ked persons, as sought nothing but spoile, got them to shipboord, and with all their vessels drew downe to the coast.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 King Edward, hauing assembled an armie of thir|tie thousand men (as some write) and accompanied in maner with all the great lords of England, came to London the one and twentith of Maie, being tues|daie, where he was honourablie receiued by the ma|ior, aldermen, and other worshipfull citizens: where euen vpon their first meeting with him he dubbed di|uerse of them knights; as the maior, the recorder, & other aldermen, and worshipfull commoners of the citie, which had manfullie and valiantlie acquit them|selues against the bastard Fauconbridge & his wic|ked companie of rebels. Moreouer, here is to be re|membred, that poore king Henrie the sixt, a little be|fore depriued (as ye haue heard) of his realme and imperiall crowne, was now in the Tower spoiled of his life, Edw. Hall. king Henrie the sixt mur|thered in the Tower. by Richard duke of Glocester (as the con|stant fame ran) who (to the intent that his brother king Edward might reigne in more suertie) mur|thered the said king Henrie with a dagger.
