Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Norreie then perceiuing such numbers of peo|ple following them, desired Ket to staie them: who returning backe to them, they were incontinentlie appeased, and so they all returned with him backe to their campe. When the earle of Warwike vn|derstood that they were thus altogither set on mis|chéefe, and neither with praier, proffer of pardon, threatening of punishment, nor other meanes they could be reduced to quietnesse, he determined to procéed against them by force.S. Stephans gate. And héerevpon bring|ing his armie vnto saint Stephans gate, which the rebels stopped vp, with the letting downe of the port|culice, he commanded those that had charge of the ar|tillerie, to plant the same against the gate, and with batterie to breake it open.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 As these things were in hand, he vnderstood by Augustine Steward the maiors deputie, that there was an other gate on the contrarie side of the citie, called the Brasen gate,The Brasen gate. which the rebels had rammed vp, but yet not so, but that it might be easilie broken open. Herewith were the pioners called, and com|manded to breake open that gate also: which being doone, the soldiers entered by the same into the citie, and slue diuerse of those rebels that stood readie to defend and resist their entrie. In the meane time had the gunners also broken in sunder with their shot the portculice, and néere hand the one halfe of the o|ther gate, by the which the marques of Northamp|ton, and capteine Drurie, aliàs Poignard (that being sent from London met my lord of Warwike by the waie) entered with their bands, and droue backe the rebels with slaughter, that were readie there to re|sist them.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 Moreouer, the maiors deputie caused West|wike gate to be set open: at the which the earle of Warwike himselfe entring with all his armie, and finding in manner no resistance, came to the market place. Here were taken a thréescore of the re|bels, the which according to the order of martiall law were incontinentlie executed, according to the qua|litie of their offense, confessing (no doubt) in consci|ence, that their punishment was proportioned to their trespasse, and that in dieng the death (were the same neuer so extreame & dredfull) they had but their desert; and therefore might well saie with the poet:

Supplicia & scelerum poenas expendimus omnes.
