Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Monsieur de Piennes ap|pointed by the French king to vittell Terwine.The charge of this conueie was committed vn|to Monsieur de Piennes, because he was lieutenant of those marches: notwithstanding there were a|mongst the number, other noble men of more high degrée in honor, and also of great prowesse, fame, and experience, furnished with sundrie bands of men at armes of long approoued valiancie, and vsed to go a|waie with victorie in manie a dangerous conflict and battell, wanting at this present nothing but their old accustomed good fortune. Whilest the Frenchmen were thus prepared to come with vittels to Ter|wine,The emperor Maximilian weareth a crosse of saint George as souldier to the king of Eng|land. the emperour Maximilian came from Aire to the kings campe before Terwine the twelfe of Au|gust, wearing a crosse of saint George as the kings souldier, & receiuing of him salarie for seruice; which Anglorum praelia noteth as noteworthie, saieng:

Compare 1577 edition: 1 The emperour was honourablie receiued, and lod|ged in a rich tent of cloth of gold prepared for him, according as was conuenient for his estate. He ta|ried vntill sundaie being the foureteenth of August, and then returned to Aire: and on the morrow after came againe being mondaie the fiftéenth of August, on which daie there chanced a great fraie betwixt the Almans of the kings campe,A Fraie be|weene the Almans of the kings campe, and the Englishmen [...] appeased [...] the discre| [...] of the [...]. and the Englishmen, insomuch that manie were slaine. The Almans ran to the kings ordinance and tooke it, and imbattelled themselues, and bent the ordinance against the king and his campe. The English prepared their bowes, and the Almans made redie their pikes: but the cap|teins tooke such paines in the matter, that the fraie was appeased.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Now as this trouble was in hand, the emperour came from Aire, and saw all the demeanour of both parts, and was glad to behold the discréet behauiour of the capteins.The king and the emperour consult which waies were best to besiege Terwine, to preuent the vittelling of it. After that the emperour was thus come to the kings field, the king called a councell, at the which the emperour was present, where it was de|bated, by what meanes they might best constreine them within to deliuer vp the towne, and especial|lie how to kéepe them from vittels & other succours, which the French armie (as it was knowne) meant verie shortlie to minister vnto them. Some were of this mind, and namelie the emperour; that bridges should be made ouer the riuer, to passe ouer a part of the armie to besiege the towne on that side; where o|therwise the French armie might vittell the towne at their pleasures.
