Compare 1577 edition: 1 The people were fled, but there was a little ca|stell rased, and cast downe, which was newlie built vp on the side of the said riuer. Upon the twentith daie of August, they burnt the foresaid towne of Aiske, and all the countrie about it,The towne of Aiske burned. and came at the last to a towne called Straulle, being verie strong, double diked and walled. Within it were thrée hun|dred & sixtie good men of war, beside the inhabitants. At the first, they shewed good countenance of defense but when they saw their enimies approach néere vnto them with rampiers and trenches, they yeelded by composition, so that the souldiers might depart with a little sticke in their hands. But the townesmen re|sted prisoners, at the will of the prince of Castile. And so on S. Bartholomews day the admerall of Flan|ders, and sir Edward Poinings entred the towne with great triumph.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 On the six and twentith daie, the armie came be|fore Uenlow, and sent an herald called Arthois, to summon the towne; but they within would not heare but shot guns at him. On the eight and twentith daie, the armie remooued vnto the north side of Uen|low, and part went ouer the water,Uenlow be|sieged by the English. and made tren|ches to the water, & so besieged the towne as streict|lie as their number would giue them leaue; but yet for all that they could doo without, they within kept one gate euer open. At length, the English capteins perceiuing that they laie there in vaine, considering the strength of the towne, and also how the armie was not of number sufficient to enuiron the same on each side, wrote to the king, who willed them with all speed to returne, and so they did. Sir Edward Poi|nings went to the court of Burgognie, where he was receiued right honorablie of the yoong prince of Castile and of his aunt the ladie Margaret.

After that sir Edward Poinings had béene highlie feasted and more praised of all men for his valiantnesse and good order of his people, he returned with his crue into England, and had lost by war and sicknesse not fullie an hundred persons. When the Englishmen were departed, the Gelders issued out of the gates of Uenlow, dailie skirmished EEBO page image 811 with the Burgognions, and asked for their archers, and héerewith winter began sharplie to approach, and the riuer of Maze by aboundance of raine rose so high, that it drowned vp the trenches: so that all things considered, the capteins without determined to raise their siege, and so they did, and after they had wasted all the countrie about Uenlow, they retur|ned euerie man to his home.
