He also banished from his pre|sence Peter de Riuales, Matth. Paris. Stephan Segraue, Robert Passelew, and diuerse others of his chiefe councel|lers, by whose means he had procured the euill will of his Nobilitie. Then receiued he againe his old ser|uants & officers, & finallie sent the archb. of Cantur|burie, the bishops of Chester & Rochester vnto the ba|rons in Wales, to offer them peace & pardon of all iniuries past, if they wold returne to his obedience. Thus in the end there was a truce taken betwixt the king and the rebels, Matth. Paris. to begin at Candlemasse, and to indure vntill Easter next insuing,The earle of Penbroke pas+seth ouer into Ireland. in which meane time, Richard the earle of Penbroke, hearing that Maurish Fitz Gerald, with Walter Lacie, Richard Burgh and others wasted his lands and possessions in Ireland (according to such commission as they had receiued of late from king Henrie and his councell) passed ouer thither, and there incountering with his enimies, was sore wounded and taken prisoner,He is taken prisoner. ha|uing entered the battell verie rashlie, and with a small companie of his people about him, onlie by the traitorous persuasion of Geffrey Maurish, who with other fled at the first brunt,Geffrey Maurish. and left him in maner alone, to stand to all the danger.

But after his death, and when the king had remooued those his councellers from him, he confessed he had put his seale to a wri|ting, but that he vnderstood what were the contents thereof he vtterlie denied.

His death suerlie was greatlie bewailed of king Henrie, openlie protesting that he had lost the worthiest capteine that then liued.
