For he had two and fiftie new sutes of apparell of cloth of gold or tissue, as was reported, all the which, togither with his hors|ses & geldings, amounting to the value of ten thou|sand marks, was lost at the sea. And besides this, there were lost at the same time fiue and twentie ships, with men, horsses, and other riches,There were drowned a|boue a thou|sand men in one place and other, as the additions to Ad.

Sir Hugh Caluerlie was neuer in his life in more danger of death, than at that time: for all that were in his ship (as Froissard writeth) were drowned, ex|cept EEBO page image 424 himselfe & s [...]auen mariners.
