Compare 1577 edition: 1 Now while he was thus ordering his affaires, tidings came that the earle of Richmond was passed Seuerne, & come to Shrewesburie without anie de|triment or incumbrance. At which message he was sore mooued and broiled with melancholie and dolor, crieng out, & asking vengeance of them that (against their oth and promise) had so deceiued him. For which cause he began to haue diffidence in other, insomuch that he determined himselfe out of hand the same daie to méet with and resist his aduersaries: and in all haste sent out espials to view and espie what waie his enimies kept and passed. They diligentlie dooing their dutie, shortlie after returned,The earle [...] incamped at Lichfield. declaring to the king that the earle was incamped at the towne of Lichfield.

In the middle part of the armie, he appointed the traffike and cariage perteining to the armie. Then he (inuironed with his gard) with a frowning coun|tenance and cruell visage, mounted on a great white courser, and followed with his footmen, the wings of horssemen coasting and ranging on euerie side: and keeping this arraie, he with great pompe entered the towne of Leicester after the sunne set [full of in|dignation & malice, which vttered it selfe from the in|ward hart by the mouth, out of which flowed speaches of horrible heate, tempered with cruell threatnings, equall to his of whome it was thus said long ago:

Horrebant saeuis omnia verba minis.]

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The earle of Richmond raised his campe,The earle of Richmond re|moueth his power to Tamworth. and de|parted from Lichfield to the towne of Tamworth thereto néere adioining, and in the mid way passing, there saluted him sir Walter Hungerford, and sir Thomas Bourchier knights, and diuerse other which yeelded and submitted themselues to his pleasure. For they, being aduertised that king Richard had them in suspicion and gelousie, a little beyond stonie Stratford left and forsooke priuilie their capteine Ro|bert Brakenberie; and wandering by night, and in maner by vnknowne paths, and vncerteine waies searching, at the last came to earle Henrie. Diuerse other noble personages, which inwardlie hated king Richard woorse than a tode or a serpent, did likewise resort to him with all their power and strength, wi|shing and working his destruction, who otherwise would haue béene the instrument of their casting away.
