[1] But we will remit this to the readers considerati|on, and note the issue of this mischéefe now broched. The yoong king reioising that he had his brethren thus on his side, readie to take his part, became more stout than before, and for answere vnto the messen|gers that came to him from his father, he declared that if his father would deliuer vp the whole gouern|ment into his hands, he would be content to breake vp his armie. As for such souldiers as would willing|lie take his part in this quarell, he caused them to sweare that they should faithfullie serue him against his aduersaries: and those that had rather serue on the other side, he licenced them fréelie to depart and go to his father.
