[1] [2] [3] This matter was opened in the parlement house, and assented to: wherevpon the bishop gathered the monie, and assembled foure thousand men & aboue, not without great grudge of the people, which dailie were with tallages and aids wearied and sore burde|ned. As this bishop was come to Douer readie to passe the seas ouer into Flanders, the duke of Glo|cester hauing receiued letters from the duke of Bed|ford, conteining an earnest request to reléeue him with some spéedie aid of men of warre, was con|streined to write vnto the bishop of Winchester, willing him in time of such néed, when all stood vpon losse or gaine, to passe with all his armie toward the duke of Bedford, to assist him against his aduersa|ries; which thing doone, and to his honour atchiued, he might performe his iournie against the vngratious Bohemers. The cardinall (though not well conten|ted with this countermand) yet least he should run into the note of infamie, if he refused to aid the re|gent of France in so great a cause, passed ouer with his power, and brought the same vnto his coosine to the citie of Paris.
