Compare 1577 edition: 1 The Frenchmen perceiuing that the walles were taken, and their enimies entered into the towne, at the first were sore amazed: but after perceiuing the small number of the Englishmen, they assembled togither and fiercelie assailed them, so that they were constreined to retire to the walles and turrets which they had taken, and with much adoo defended the same; some leaping downe into the diches, and hi|ding them in the vines, till at length the earle of Huntington, Hall. with his companies came to their suc|cors, and entring by the gate which was open, easilie did beat backe the enimies, & got the market place. Which when the lord Lisle Adam capteine of the towne perceiued, he opened the gate towards Pa|ris, Hall. by the which he with all his retinue, and diuerse of the townesmen to the number of ten thousand in all, (as Enguerant de Monstr. recounteth) fled towards Paris, taking awaie with them their coine, iewels, and plate. Some of them fleeing towards Beauuois were met with, and stripped of that they had, by Ie|han de Guigni, and Iehan de Claw, two capteins that serued the Orlientiall faction.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 There were within the towne of Pontoise at that time when it was thus taken by the Englishmen, a thousand lances, and two thousand arc [...]balisters, as Thomas Walsingham affirmeth, and of Englishmen and Gascoignes that went first foorth of Mante with the captau de Buef, not past fiftéene hundred, as Hall reporteth; although Enguerant de Monstrellet saith, they were about thrée thousand. But how manie soeuer they were, they durst not at the first, by reason of their small number (as may be thought) once di|uide themselues, or deale with booties, till about the houre of prime, that the duke of Clarence came to their aid with fiue thousand men, who much praising the valiantnesse of the earle and his retinue that had thus woone the towne, gaue to them the chéefe spoile of the which there was great plentie.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Then went the duke foorth towards Paris,The duke o [...] Clarence s [...]|meth befo [...]e Paris [...] his armie. and comming thither, lodged before it two daies and two nights, without perceiuing anie proffer of issue to be made foorth against him by his enimies, and there|fore seeing they durst not once looke vpon him, he re|turned to Pontoise, for the taking of which towne the whole countrie of France, and speciallie the Pa|risians were sore dismaied: sith now there was no fortresse able to withstand the English puissance;The [...] spoile the [...] of France. for that the Irishmen ouerran all the Isle of France, did to the Frenchmen damages innumerable (as their writers affirme) brought dailie prcies to the English armie, burst vp houses, laid beds on the backes of the kine, rid vpon them, carried yoong children before them, and sold them to the English|men for slaues. These strange dooings so feared the Frenchmen within the territorie of Paris, and the countrie about, that the sorie people fled out of the villages with all their stuffe into the citie.
