[1] [2] The duke of Yorke, whome king Richard had left as gouernour of the realme in his absence, hearing that his nephue the duke of Lancaster was thus ar|riued, and had gathered an armie, he also assembled a puissant power of men of armes and archers (as be|fore yée haue heard) but all was in vaine,The harts of the commo [...] wholie bent [...]o the duke of Lancaster. for there was not a man that willinglie would thrust out one arrow against the duke of Lancaster, or his parta|kers, or in anie wise offend him or his freends. The duke of Yorke therefore passing foorth towards Wales to méet the king, at his comming foorth of Ireland, was receiued into the castell of Berkelie, and there remained, till the comming thither of the duke of Lancaster (whom when he perceiued that he was not able to resist) on the sundaie, after the feast of saint Iames, which as that yeare came about, fell vpon the fridaie, he came foorth into the church that stood without the castell, and there communed with the duke of Lancaster. With the duke of Yorke were the bishops of Norwich, the lord Berkelie, the lord Seimour, and other: with the duke of Lancaster were these, Thomas Arundell archbishop of Can|turburie that had béene banished, the abbat of Leice|ster, the earles of Northumberland and Westmer|land, Thomas Arundell sonne to Richard late earle of Arundell, the baron of Greistoke, the lords Wil|loughbie and Ros, with diuerse other lords, knights, and other people, which dailie came to him from eue|rie part of the realme: those that came not, were spoiled of all they had, so as they were neuer able to recouer themselues againe, for their goods being then taken awaie, were neuer restored. And thus what for loue, and what for feare of losse, they came flocking vnto him from euerie part.
