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.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Others were of a contrarie mind, doubting what might happen, if the armie should be so diuided, least the Frenchmen setting on the backe of the one part of the armie, and they within the towne to sallie out in their faces, some misfortune might happen yer the other part could passe the riuer to the succour of their fellowes. Yet at length the former purpose was al|lowed as most necessarie; and therefore commande|ment was giuen to the maister of the ordinance, that in all hast he should cause fiue bridges to be made ouer the water for the armie to passe.Fiue bridges made in one night for the armie to passe ouer the riuer at Terwine. The car|penters so applied their worke that night, that the bridges were made by the next morow, and all the horssemen first passed ouer, and then the king with his whole battell, and the great ordinance followed and passed ouer to the other side of the water. This was on the sixteenth daie of August being tuesdaie.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 On the same morning the Frenchmen were com|ming with their conueie of vittels to refresh the towne, hauing appointed one part of their troops to kéepe on that side the riuer where the English armie was first incamped, and where the earle of Shrewes|burie still kept his field; that in offering the skir|mish on that side, the residue of the horssemen might with more ease and safetie put the vittels and other necessarie things into the towne on the other side. Here might a man haue séene of what force in wars sudden chance is oftentimes. Polydor. The force of sudden chance in warre. For the king thus with his battell passing the riuer, meaning to besiege the towne on euerie side, and the Frenchmen at that same instant hauing also passed the riuer with other carriages laden with vittels, purposing to reléeue the towne on that side, caused no small doubt to be conceiued of ech others meaning, on both parts, least that the one, hauing knowlege of the others purpose, had béene prepared for to hinder the same.
