[1] [2] [3] The earle la|menteth and reioiseth.When he had heard these newes thus reported, he first sorowed and lamented his first attempt and set|ting forward of his fréends, and in especiall of the no|bilitie, not to haue more fortunatelie succéeded. Se|condarilie, he reioised on the other part, that God had sent him so manie valiant and prudent capteins to be his companions in his martiall enterprises, trusting suerlie and nothing doubting in his owne o|pinion, but that all his businesse should be wiselie compassed, and brought to a good conclusion. Where|fore he determining with all diligence to set forward his new begun businesse, departed to Rheims, and sent certeine of his priuie seruitours to conduct and bring the marquesse and other noble men to his pre|sence. When they knew that he was safelie returned into Britaine, Lord how they reioised! for before that time they missed him, and knew not in what part of the world to make inquirie or search for him. For they doubted and no lesse feared least he had ta|ken land in England, & fallen into the hands of king Richard, in whose person they knew well was nei|ther mercie nor compassion.
