Compare 1587 edition: 1 2 Aruiragus and Planctius got them vnto London:Caratake re|turneth home to Caricto|nium. and Caratake commaunding his peo|ple home ech man into his Countrey, he himſelfe withdrewe firſt towardes Yorke, and after vnto the Citye of Carrike. Whither ſhortly after there came vnto him Ambaſſadors from Aulus Planctius,Ambaſſadors are ſent vnto Caratake from Aulus Plan|ctius. ſent to knowe vpon what occaſion hee did ayde the Brytiſhe rebelles agaynſt the Romaine Empyre, declaring that if he woulde not be conformable to make a worthie amendes for ſo preſumptuous an enterpriſe, he ſhoulde be ſure to haue the Romaines his enimies: and that in ſuche wiſe, as he ſhoulde perceyue, it were muche better for him to ſeeke their friendſhippe, than to abyde their enimitie. Herevnto Ca|ratake anſwered,Caratake his anſwere vnto the Ambaſ|ſadours. that he had iuſt cauſe to do that which he did. Conſidering the iniuries which his ſiſter Voada with hir ſon Guiderius had & were lyke to receyue by their counſel & meanes: & there|fore he was ſo little mynded to make any amen|des for that was done, that he thought it more reaſon that the Romaines ſhoulde clearly auoyd out of the whole poſſeſſion of Brytaine, eyther elſe they might aſſure themſelues to haue aſwell the Brytaynes, as alſo the Scottes and Pictes to be their perpetual enimies, and that onely for the chalenge of their auncient liberties & freedom.

Compare 1587 edition: 1 The Romaine Ambaſſadors being returned with this anſwere, Planctius tooke no ſmall in|dignation therat, ſore menacing to be reuenged of ſo high and cõtumelious wordes pronounced a|gaynſt the maieſtie of the Romaine Empyre.

Compare 1587 edition: 1 About the ſame tyme Aruiragus vpon truſt conceyued by ioyning his power with the other confederate Brytaynes to expulſe the Romaines quite out of the realme,Aruiragus reuolteth. and ſo to recouer the en|tyre eſtate reuolting from thẽ, fled vnto Shrewſ|burie, where the ſame time ſuch Brytiſh Lordes as were enimies to the Romaines, were aſſem|bled againe in coũſail, by whom Aruiragus was receyued with great gladneſſe (ye may be ſure) of thoſe Lordes, truſting by his meanes to haue their force in maner doubled.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Caratake, who (as ye haue heard) was generall of The Romans giue battell to the Britains. all the confederates, vnderstanding the enimies in|tent, was as readie to receiue battell as they were to offer it; wherevpon there insued right great and vnmercifull slaughter betwixt them on both parts, without sparing any at all, till such time as the night parted the sraie, with such losse on either side, that af|ter Night par|teth the fray. they were once got in sunder, neither part had a|nie hast afterwards to ioine againe: so that in the morning there appeared none in the field but onelie the dead bodies, those that were left aliue as well on the one part as the other being fled and scattered in|to the woods and mounteins. Aruiragus and Planc|tius got them vnto London: and Caratake com|manding his people home each man into his coun|trie, Caratake re|turneth home to Caricto|nium. he himselfe withdrew first towards Yorke, and after vnto the citie of Carrike; whither shortlie af|ter there came vnto him ambassadors from Aulus Ambassadors are sent vnto Caratake [...] Aulus [...]. Planctius, sent to know vpon what occasion he did aid the British rebels against the Romane empire, declaring that if he would not be conformable to make a woorthie amends for so presumptuous an en|terprise, he should be sure to haue the Romans his enimies; and that in such wise, as he should perceiue it were much better for him to séeke their friendship, than to abide their enimitie.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 Herevnto Caratake answered, that he had iust cause to doo that which he did, considering the iniu|ries which his sister Uoada with hir sonne Guide|rius Caratake his [...]er vnto [...] ambassa|dors. had and were like to receiue by their counsell and meanes: and therefore he was so little minded to make anie amends for that was doone, that hee thought it more reason that the Romans should clearelie auoid out of the whole possession of Bri|taine, either else they might assure themselues to haue aswell the Britains, as also the Scots & Picts to be their perpetuall enimies, and that onelie for the chalenge of their ancient liberties and fréedome. The Romane ambassadors being returned with this answer, Planctius tooke no small indignation there|at, sore menacing to be reuenged of so high and con|tumelious words pronounced against the maiestie of the Romane empire.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 3 About the same time Aruiragus, vpon trust con|ceiued by ioining his power with the other confede|rate Britains, to expell the Romans quite out of the realme, and so to recouer the intire estate, reuolting from them, fled into Shrewsburie, where, at the same Aruiragus reuolteth. time such British lords as were enimies to the Ro|mans, were assembled againe in councell, by whom Aruiragus was receiued with great gladnesse (ye maie be sure) of those lords, trusting by his meanes to haue their force in maner doubled. His wife Ge|nissa being at the same season great with child, tooke such thought for this reuolting of hir husband, that Genissa the wife of Arui|ragus d [...]th. trauelling before hir time, she immediatly died ther|with. But Aulus Planctius, perceiuing now tho|roughlie how little trust there was to be put in the Britans, dispatched a messenger in all hast with A messenger sent vnto Claudius the emperor from Planctius. letters vnto Claudius the emperour, who as then so|iourned at Rome, signifieng vnto him in what dan|ger the state of Britaine stood, if timelie prouision were not the sooner made.
