Compare 1577 edition: 1 This is the true copie (said the lord of Buclans) of the capitulation, made touching the deliuerance of the pope, and how he is deliuered, and depar|ted from castell saint Angelo, the tenth of De|cember last past: put it in your relation. The said king of armes answered; We will so doo: and so for that time they parted. ¶ Here, bicause mention is made of the popes deliuerance out of prison, it shall not be amisse to set downe the maner thereof as it is reported by Guicciardine. Guic. pag. 1085 The manner of the popes go|ing out of pri|son. All things hauing their orderlie expedition, & the resolution set downe, that the tenth of December the Spaniards should accompanie him into a place of suertie, he fearing some variation either for the ill mind which he knew don Hugo bare to him, or for anie other accident that might happen, the night before he stale secretlie out of the castell in the closing of the euening, disgui|sed in the attire of a merchant. Lewis de Gonsaguo who was in the paie of the emperour, taried for him in the medowes with a strong companie of harque|buziers, and with that gard did accompanie him to Montfalcon, where dismissing almost all his bands of footmen, he was led by the same Lewis euen to Orbietto, into which citie he entred by night with|out the companie of anie one cardinall. An exam|ple worthie of consideration, and perhaps neuer happened since the church was great, that a pope should in that sort fall from so great a puissance and reuerence, his eies to behold the losse and sacke of Rome, his person to be turned ouer into captiuitie, and his whole estate reduced to the disposing of an other, and within few moneths after, to be restored & established in his former greatnesse. So great to|wards princes christian is the authoritie of the pope, and the respect which mortall men doo beare to him.]

Compare 1577 edition: 1 The king of armes Guien asked if his maiestie ment this concerning the merchants? Whervnto the emperor answered: This is beside that which is con|teined in your writing, touching the merchants, to which point (said he) I will answer by writing. And herewith Guien making thrée obeisances, said; Sir I will gladlie doo it. Then said the emperor,This the em|peror infer|reth to iustifie his owne dea|lings by waie of comparison Tell the king your maister further, that I beléeue that he hath not béene aduertised of that which I told to his ambassador in Granado, which toucheth him néere. For I told him in such a [...]ase so noble a prince, that if he had vnderstood the same, he would haue made me an answer. He shall do well to know it of his ambas|sador. For by that he shall vnderstand, that I haue kept better faith to him in that I haue promised at Madrill than he to me, and I praie you so tell him, and faile not hereof. Guien answered, Without doubt sir I will doo it: and so making his obeisance he departed.
