The
preface
of
Johan
Bourchier
knyght
lorde
Berners
/
translatour
of
this
present
cronycle
.
WHat
condygne
graces
and
thankes
ought
men
to
gyue
to
the
writers
of
historyes
?
Who
with
their
great
labours
/
haue
done
so
moche
profyte
to
the
humayne
lyfe
.
They
shewe
/
open
/
manifest
and
declare
to
the
reder
/
by
example
of
olde
antyquite
:
what
we
shulde
enquere
/
desyre
/
and
folowe
:
And
also
/
what
we
shulde
eschewe
/
auoyde
/
and
vtterly
flye
.
For
whan
we
(
beynge
vnexpert
of
chaunces
)
se
/
beholde
/
and
rede
the
auncyent
actes
/
gestes
/
and
dedes
:
Home
/
and
with
what
labours
/
daungers
/
and
paryls
they
were
gested
and
done
:
They
right
greatly
admonest
/
ensigne
/
and
teche
vs
:
howe
we
maye
lede
forthe
our
lyues
.
And
farther
/
he
that
hath
the
perfyte
knowledge
of
others
ioye
/
welthe
/
and
higher
prosperite
:
and
also
trouble
/
sorowe
and
great
aduersyte
:
hath
the
xpert
doctryne
of
all
parylles
.
And
albeit
/
that
mortall
folke
are
marueylously
separated
/
bothe
by
lande
&
water
/
and
right
wonderously
sytuate
:
yet
are
they
and
their
actes
(
done
peraduenture
by
the
space
of
a
thousande
yere
)
compact
togyder
/
by
thistographier
:
as
it
were
the
dedes
of
one selfe
cyte
/
and
in
one
mannes
lyfe
.
Wherfore
I
say
that
historie
may
well
be
called
a
diuyne
prouydence
:
For
as
the
celestyall
bodyes
aboue
/
complecte
all
and
at
euery
tyme
the
vniuersall
worlde
/
the
creatures
therin
conteyned
/
and
all
their
dedes
:
semblably
so
dothe
history
.
Is
it
nat
a
right
noble
thynge
for
vs
/
by
the
fautes
and
errours
of
other
/
to
amede
and
erect
our
lyfe
in
to
better
?
We
shuld
nat
seke
and
acquyre
that
other
dyd
/
but
what
thyng
was
most
best
/
most
laudable
/
and
worthely
done
/
we
shulde
putte
before
our
eyes
to
folowe
.
Be
nat
the
sage
counsayles
of
two
or
thre
olde
fathers
in
a
cyte
/
towne
/
or
countre
:
whom
long
age
hath
made
wyse
/
dyscrete
/
and
prudent
:
farre
more
praysed
/
lauded
/
and
derely
loued
:
than
of
the
yongemenne
?
Howe
moche
more
than
ought
stories
to
be
commended
/
praysed
/
and
loued
?
In
whom
is
encluded
so
many
sage
counsayls
/
great
reasons
/
&
hygh
wisedoms
:
of
so
innumerable
persons
/
of
sondry
nacyons
and
of
euery
age
:
and
that
in
so
long
space
/
as
four
or
fyue
hundred
yere
.
The
most
profytable
thyng
in
this
worlde
/
for
the
instytucion
of
the
humayne
lyfe
/
is
hystorie
.
Dues
the
contynuall
redyng
therof
/
maketh
yonge
men
equall
in
prudence
to
olde
men
:
and
to
olde
fathers
stryken
in
age
/
it
mynystreth
experyence
of
thynges
.
More
/
it
yeldeth
priuate
persons
worthy
of
dignyte
/
rule
and
gouernaunce
.
It
compelleth
th
emperours
/
hygh
rulers
and
gouernours
/
to
do
noble
dedis
:
to
th
ende
they
may
optayne
immortall
glory
.
It
exciteth
/
moueth
/
and
stereth
the
strong
hardy
warriours
/
for
the
great
laude
that
they
haue
after
they
ben
deed
/
promptly
to
go
in
hande
with
great
and
harde
parels
/
in
defence
of
their
countre
.
And
it
prohibyteth
reprouable
persons
to
do
mischeuous
dedes
/
for
feare
of
infamy
&
shame
.
So
thus
/
through
the
monumentes
of
writynge
/
whiche
is
the
testymony
vnto
vertue
/
many
men
haue
ben
moued
:
Some
to
byldecytes
/
some
to
deuyse
and
establisshe
lawes
tight
profitable
/
necessarie
/
and
behouefull
for
the
humayne
lyfe
:
Some
other
to
fynde
newe
artes
/
craftes
/
and
sciences
/
very
requisyte
to
the
vse
of
mankynde
.
But
aboue
all
thynges
/
wherby
mans
welthe
ryseth
/
speciall
laude
and
cause
ought
to
be
gyuen
to
historie
.
It
is
the
keper
of
suche
thinges
as
haue
ben
vertuously
done
/
and
the
wytnesse
of
yuell
dedes
.
And
by
the
benefite
of
hystorie
:
all
noble
/
highe
/
and
vertuous
actes
be
immortall
.
What
moued
the
strong
and
ferse
Hercules
to
enterprise
in
his
lyfe
/
so
many
great
incomperable
labours
and
pyls
?
Certaynly
noughtels
/
but
that
for
his
merytis
immortalyte
mought
be
gyuen
to
hym
of
all
folke
.
In
semblable
wyse
dyd
his
imytator
noble
duke
These
us
/
&
many
other
innumerable
worthy
prices
and
famouse
men
/
whose
vertues
ben
redemed
sro
oblyuion
&
shyne
by
historie
.
And
where
as
other
monumentes
in
processe
of
tyme
/
by
varyable
chaunces
/
are
confused
and
lost
.
The
vertue
of
history
/
dyffused
and
spredde
throughe
the
vuyuersall
worlde
/
hathe
to
her
custos
&
kepat
it
(
that
is
to
say
tyme
)
whiche
consumeth
the
other
writynges
.
And
albeit
that
those
menne
are
right
worthy
of
great
laude
and
prayse
/
who
by
their
writynges
shewe
and
lede
vs
the
waye
to
vertue
:
yet
neuerthelesse
/
the
poems
/
lawes
/
and
other
artes
that
they
founde
/
deuysed
and
writ
/
ben
mixed
with
some
domage
.
And
sometyme
for
the
trueth
/
they
ensigne
a
man
to
lye
.
But
onelye
hystorie
/
truely
with
wordes
/
representyng
the
actes
/
gestes
/
and
dedes
done
:
complecteth
all
profyte
.
It
moueth
/
stereth
/
and
compelleth
to
honestie
:
detesteth
/
erketh
/
&
aborteth
vices
.
It
extolleth
/
enhaunceth
/
and
lyfteth
vp
/
suche
as
ben
noble
and
vertuous
:
depresseth
/
poystereth
/
and
thrusteth
downe
/
such
as
ben
wicked
/
yuell
/
and
reprouable
.
What
knowlege
shulde
we
haue
of
auncyent
thynges
past
/
and
historie
were
nat
?
Whiche
is
the
testymony
therof
/
the
lyght
of
trouthe
/
the
maystres
of
the
lyfe
humayne
/
the
presydent
of
remembraunce
/
and
the
messanger
of
antiquyte
.
Why
moued
and
stered
Phaleryus
/
the
kynge
Ptholome
/
oft
and
dilygently
to
rede
bokes
?
Forsothe
for
none
other
cause
/
but
that
those
thynges
are
founde
writen
in
bokes
/
that
the
frendes
dare
nat
shewe
to
the
price
.
Moche
more
I
wolde
fayne
write
of
the
incomparable
profyte
of
hystorie
/
but
I
feare
me
/
that
I
shulde
to
sore
tourment
the
reder
of
this
my
preface
.
And
also
I
doute
nat
/
but
that
the
great
vtilyte
therof
is
better
knowen
/
than
I
coulde
declare
:
wherfore
I
shall
breuely
come
to
apoynt
.
Thus
/
whan
I
aduertysed
and
remembred
the
many
folde
comodyties
of
hystorie
/
howe
benefyciall
it
is
to
mortall
folke
/
and
eke
howe
laudable
and
merytoryous
a
dede
it
is
/
to
write
hystories
/
fixed
my
mynde
to
do
some
thyng
therin
.
And
euer
whan
this
ymaginacyon
came
to
me
/
I
volued
/
tourned
/
and
redde
many
volumes
and
bokes
/
conteyning
famouse
histories
.
And
amonge
all
other
/
I
redde
dilygently
the
four
volumes
or
bokes
of
sir
Johan
Froyssart
of
the
countrey
of
Heynaulte
/
written
in
the
Frenche
tonge
:
whiche
I
iudged
comodyous
/
necessarie
/
and
profytable
to
be
hadde
in
Englysshe
/
sithe
they
treat
of
the
fomous
actes
done
in
our
parties
.
That
is
to
say
:
in
Englande
/
Fraunce
/
Spaygne
/
Portyngale
/
Scotlande
/
Bretayne
/
Flaunders
/
and
other
places
adioyning
:
and
specially
/
they
redounde
to
the
honoure
of
Englysshemen
.
What
pleasure
shall
it
be
to
the
noble
gentylmen
of
Englande
/
to
se
/
beholde
/
&
rede
:
the
highe
enterprises
/
famous
actes
/
and
glorious
dedes
/
done
and
atchyued
by
their
valyant
aūceytours
?
Forsothe

this
hath

at

highe

of
my

redouted
souerayne

the

kyng
of

and

&c.
Under
his
gracyous
supportacyon
/
to
do
my
deuoyre
to
translate
out
of
frenche
in

our
maternall
englysshe

/
the

Whiche

The

Requyrynge

in

And
in
that
I
haue
nat
folowed
myne
authour
worde

:
yet
I
trust
I
haue
ensewed
the
true
reporte
of
the

And
as

Where
as
I

And
there
as
I
haue
named
the

of

where
as
they
be

for
in

they
be
lengar

in

In
Englande
a
leage
or
myle
is
well
knowen
/
in
Fraunce
a
leage
is
two
myles

and
in
some

thre

And
in
other

more

euery
nacion

And
if
any

I
remyt
the

therof

The

The

was
the

The

The

The

he
had
by

who
after
reygned

sheweth
the
hystory

that
this
Philyp

had
.iii.
sonnes
and
a
feyre
doughter
named

maried
into

these

theldest
named
Lewes
who
was
kyng

was
called
kyng
Lewys
Hotin

The
.ii.
had
to
name
Philyp
the
great

and
the

was
called
Charles

and
all

were
kyngis

discease
by
ryght
succession
eche
aff
other
without
hauyng
any

So
that
after

piers

all
the
barons
of

nat
gyue
the

the
suster
/
who
was
quene
of
Ingland
by
cause
they
sayd
&
maynteyned
&
yet
do
/
that
the
realme
of
Fraunce
is
so
noble
that
it
ought
nat
to
go
to
a
woman
/
and
so
consequently
to
Isabel
nor
to
the
kyng
of
Inglande
her
eldest
sonne
/
for
they
determyned
the
sonne
of
the
woman
to
haue
no
ryght
nor
succession
by
his
mother
/
syn
they
declared
the
mother
to
haue
no
ryght
/
so
that
by
these
reasons
/
the
.xii.
piers
and
barons
of
Fraunce
by
theyr
comon
acord
dyd
gyue
the
realme

who
was
as
the
next
heire
male
as
sonne
to
the
suster
of
Charles
last
kyng
of
Fraunce
.
Thus
went
the
realme
of
Fraunce
out
of
the
ryght
lynage

it
semed
to

by

thought

wherby

was
more
beloued
with

Thus

Thus

But

was
greatly
reproued

counsailed

bothe
of

bycause

Than
they
put

But
incontynent
after

there
began
a

bitwene
some
of

of

who

For

M.
shotte
faste
theyr
arowes
/
nat
sparyng

And
it
was
thought

supposed
that
this
sraye
was
begonne
/
by
some
of
the
frendis
of
the
Spencers

&
of

as
ye
haue
harde
before
/
as
than
parauenture
thought
to
be
som
what
reueged
/
and
to
set
discorde
in

.
And
so
the
Inglysshemen
/
that
were

to
these

shoot
fast

wyndowes
/
&

howbeit
some

syde
and
quickly
armed
them
/
but
they
durst
nat
issue
out
into
the
strete
for
feare
of
the
arowes
.
Than
the
straungers
brake
out
on
the
backe
side
and
brake
downe
pales
and
hedges
of
gardens
and
drewe
them
into
a

aboode

And
whan

they
hasted
them
to
go

succoure
theyr
compaignyons
/
who
defended
theyr

in

.
And
as
they
went
forth
they
passed
by

of

/
wher
as
there
were
great

behynd

ther
were

they
dyd
as

They
had

With

For
they

Fynally
the

were
discomfetted

put
to
chase
and
there
was
deed
in
the
place
well
to
the
nombre
of
.
CCC
.
And
it
was
said
they
were
all
of
the
busshopprike
of
Lyncoln
.
Itrowe
god
dyd
neuer
gyue
more
grace
and
fortune
to
any
people
.
than
he
dyd
as
than
/
to
this
gentle
knyght
/
syr
John
of
Heynaulte
and
to
his
companye
.
For
these
Inghsshe
archers
intended
to
none
other
thyng
/
but
to
murder
and
to
robbe
them
/
for
all
that
they
were
come
to
serue
the
kyng
in
his
besynesse
.
These
straungers
were
neuer
in
so
great
parell
/
all
the
season
that
they
lay
/
northey
were
euery
man
had
takyn
his
place
to
lodge
ther
al
nyght
.
Than
the
lordes
drewe
them
aparte
/
to
take
counsaile
howe
they
myght
fyght
with
the
scottis
.
consideryng
the
countrey
that
they
were
in
/
for
as
farre
as
they
coulde
vnderstande
.
the
scottis
went
euer
foreward
all
about
burnyng
/
and
wastyng
the
countrey
and
parceyued
well
howe
they
coulde
nat
in
any
wyse
/
feyght
with
them
among
these
mountaignes
without
great
parell
or
daunger
/
and
they
sawe
well
also
they
coulde
nat
ouertake
them
.
But
it
was
thought
that
the
scottis
must
n●dis
passe
agayne
the
riuer
of
Tyne
home
warde
.
Therfore
it
was
determined
by
great
aduyce
and
counsaile
/
that
all
the
oste
shulde
remoue
at
mydnyght
/
and
to
make
haste
in
the
mornyng
to
the
entent
to
stoppe
the
passage
of
the
ryuer
from
the
Scottis
/
wherby
they
shulde
be
aduysed
by
force
/
eyther
to
fyght
with
them
/
orels
to
abyde
styll
in
Inglande
to
theyr
great
daunger
and
losse
.
And
to
this
conclusion
/
all
the
oste
was
accorded
and
so
supped
and
lodged
as
well
as
they
myght
that
nyght
/
&
euery
man
was
warned
to
be
redy
at
the
fyrst
soundyng
of
the
trumpette
.
And
at
the
secunde
blaste
euery
man
to
arme
hym
without
delaye
/
and
at
the
.iii.
euery
man
quyckely
to
mounte
on
theyr
horses
/
and
to
drawe
vnder
their
owne
standard
&
baner
/
and
euery
man
to
take
with
hym
but
one
loste
of
breede
/
and
to
truste
it
behynde
hym
on
his
horse
.
It
was
also
determined
/
that
they
shulde
leaue
behynde
theym
all
theyr
loose
harneys
and
all
maner
of
cariagis
and
purueyaunces
/
for
they
thought
surely
to
feyght
with
the
scottis
the
next
daye
/
what
so
euer
daunger
they
were
in
thynkyng
to
ieo●de
eyther
to
wyn
or
to
leese
all
.
And
thus
it
was
ordeyned
and
so
it
was
accomplysshed
/
for
about
mydnyght
euery
man
was
redy
apparailed
/
fewe
had
slepte
but
lytle
/
and
yet
they
had
sore
traualed
the
daye
before
.
Is
great
haste
as
they
made
or
they
were
well
raunged
in
batell
/
the
day
began
to
appere
Than
they
auaunced
forward
in
al
hast
through
mountaignes
valeys
/
and
rokkes
/
and
through
many

And
on
the
hyest
of
these
hylles
/
and
on
the
playn
of
these
valeys
/
there
were
meruaylouse
great
marshes
and
daungerous
passages

that
it
was

〈◊〉
any
of
these
marshes
with
moche
peyne
could
gette
any
ayde
to
helpe
theym
out
agayne
.
So
that
in
dyuerse
places
there
were
many
lost
and
specially
horse
and
cariagꝭ
and
often
tymes
in
the
day
there
was
cryed
alarum
/
for
it
was
said
euer
that
the
formost
company
of
their
oste
wer
fyghtyng
with
their
ennemies
.
so
that
the
hynder
most
went
it
had
ben
true
/
wherfore
they
hasted
theym
ouer
rokkis
and
stones
and
mountaygnes
with
helme
and
sheld
redy
apparailed
to
fyght
/
with
spere
and
swerde
redy
in
hand
with
out
tariyng
for
father
/
brother
/
or
companyon
.
And
whan
they
had
thus
ron
forth
often
tymes
in
the
day
the
space
of
halfe
a
myle
to gyther
towarde
the
crye
wenyng
it
had
been
theyr
ennemyes
.
They
were
deceyued

for
the
crye
euer
arose
by
the
reysyng
of
hartis
hyndis
/
and
other
sauage
beastis
that
were
seen
by
them
in
the
forewarde
/
after
the
whiche
beastis
they
made
suche
showtyng
and
criyng
/
that
they
that
came
after
went
they
had
ben
a
fyghtyng
with
theyr
ennemies
.
Thus
rode
forth
all
that
daye
/
the
yonge
kyng
of
Inglande
by
mountaignes
and
destis
/
without
fyndyng
any
hygh
way
/
towne
/
or
village
.
And
whan
it
was
ageynst
nyght
they
came
to
the
ryuer
of
Tyne
/
to
the
same
place
/
Where
as
the
scottis
hadde
passed
ouer
in
to
Inglande
Wenyng
to
them
/
that
they
muste
nedis
repasse
agayne
the

Than
the
kyng
of
Inglande
/
and
his
oste
passed
ouer
the
same
riuer
with
suche
gydis
as
he
had
▪
with
moche
peyne
&
trauaile
/
for
the
passage
was
full
of
great
stones
And
whan
they
Were
ouer
/
they
lodged
theym
that
nyght
by
the
ryuer
syde
/
and
by
that
tyme
the
Son
was
goon
to
reste
/
and
there
was
but
fewe
among
them
that
had
other
axe
or
hoke
/
or
any
instrument
to
cutte
downe
any
woodde
to
make
their
lodgyng
is
withall
/
and
there
Were
many
that
had
loste
there
owne
company
/
and
wist
nat
where
they
were
.
Some
of
the
footemen
were
farre
behynde
/
&
wyst
nat
well
what
way
to
take
/
but
suche
as
knewe
best
the
countrey
sayd
playnly
they
hadde
rydden
the
same
daye
.xxiiii.
englysshe
myles
/
for
they
roode
as
faste
as
they
might
without
any
rest
/
but
at
suche
passages
/
as
they
coulde
nat
chese
/
all
this
nyght
they
laye
by
this
ryuer
syde
/
styll
in
theyr

holdynge
theyr
horses
by
theyr
raynes
in
theyr
handts
/
for
they
wyst
nat
wherunto
to
tye
them
.
Thus
theyr
horses
dyd
eate
no
meate
of
all
that
nyght
nor
day
before
.
They
had
nother
ootes
nor
forage
for
them
.
Nor
the
people
of
the
oste
had
no
sustenaunce
of
all
that
day
nor
nyght
but
euery
man
his
loffe
that
he
hadde
caryed
be
hynde

/
the
whiche
was
sore
wette
with
the
swette
of
the
horses
/
nor
they
dranke
none
other
drynke
but
the
water
of
the
ryuer
/
Withowte
it
were
some
of
the
lordis
/
that
had
caryed
botels
with
them
/
nor
they
had
no
fyer
nor
lyght
/
for
they
had
nothyng
to
make
lyght
withall
without
it
were
some
of
the
lordes
that
had
torches
brought
with
them
.
In
this
great
trouble
&
daunger
they
passed
all
that
nyght
/
their
armour
still
on
their
backis
/
their
horses
redy
sadled
.
And
whan
the
day
began
to
appere
▪
the
whiche
was
greatly
desired
of
all
the
hole
oste
/
they
trusted
than
to
synd
some
redresse
for
them selfe
/
and
for
their

orels
to
fyght
with
theyr
ennemies
/
the
whiche
they
greatly
desyred
/
to
thentene
to
be
deliuered
out
of
the
great
trauaile
and
peyne
that
they
had
endured
/
and
all
that
day
it
rayned
so
faste
that
the
ryuer
and
passage
was
waxen
great
/
and
rysen
so
high
y●
or
it
were
noone

myght
none

Wherfore
they
could
nat
sende

nor
where
to
haue
any
forage
or
lytter
for
theyr
horses
/
nor
brede
nor
drynke
for
their
owne
sustinaūcis
but
so
all
the
nyght
they
were
fayne
to
fast
/
nor
theyr
horses
had
nothyng
but
leues
of
trees
&
herbes●
they
cut
downe
bowes
of
trees
with
theyr
swerdis
to
tye
withall
their
horses

&
to
make
themselfe
lodges

And
about
noone
some
poore
folkis
of
the
countrey
were
founde

and
they
said
howe
they
were
as
than

and
that
there
was
no

wheri
they
might
fynde

And
whan
this
was
shewed
to
the
kyng
/
&
to
the
lordis
of
his
counsell
/
incontinent
were
sent
thither
horses

sompters
to

some
p●ueyāce
and
there
was
a
crye
in

made
in

/
that
who

incontinent
at

&
that
they
shulde

for
it

publisshed
openly

that
they
were

tyll
they

And
the
next

by

returned
agayne
to

wherby
great

and
thus
they

In

Wherby

Wherfore

And

The

/
&
she
was

.
Howe
be
it
she
kept

euyll
the

wedloke
Wherfore
she
was
kept
a
long
space
in

/
in

castell
Gaylarde
/
before
that
her

was
made

And
whan

he
was
crowned

of
the
.xii.
dowsepiers

bicause
they

they
aduysed

to
the
doughter
of
the
Emperour
Henry
of
Lucenbourg
suster
to
the
gentle

of
Bayhaigne
/
Wherby
the
first
mariage
of
the

was
fordoone
bytwene
hym
and
his
wyfe
that
was
in
prison
by
the
licence
and
declaracyon
of
the

/
and
by

who
was
ryght
humble

wyse
lady
.
the
kyng
had
a
sonne

who
dyed
in
his
yong
age
/
and
the
quene
also
/
at
Issodnii
in
Berrey
.
And
they
both
dyed
suspeciously
.
Wherfore
dyuers
parsones
were
put
to

after
priuely
.
And
after
this
the

kyng
Charles
was
maried
agayn
the
.iii.
tyme
to
the
doughter
of
his
vncle
/
the

Loyes

of
Dewreux
/
and
she
was
suster
to
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
/
and
was
named
quene
Johan
.
And
so
in
tyme
and
space
this
lady
was
with
childe
/
and
in
the
meane
tyme
/
the
kyng
Charles
her
husband
fell
sycke
/
and
lay
downe
on
his
dethe
bedde
.
And
whan
he
sawe
there
Was
no
waye
with
hym
but
deth
/
he
deuised
that
if
it
fortuned
the
quene
to
be
delyuered
of
a
sonne
.
Than
he
wolde
that
the
lorde
Phylyp
of
Ualoys
shulde
be
his
gouernour
/
and
regent
of
all
hys
realme
tyll
his

suche
age
as
he
myght
be
crowned
kyng
.
and
if
it
fortune
the
quene
to
haue
a
doughter
/
than
he
wold
that
all
the
.xii.
piers
of
Fraunce
shulde
take
aduyse
and
counsell
for
the
forther
ordering
of

/
and
that
they
shuld
gyue
the

and
regally
to

And

put

the

maynteyned
:
that

so
great

that
it
ought
nat
by

And

But
as

without

Thanne

And
there

And

But

ANd

these
two
execucyons
:
he
toke
newe
counselours
of
the
moost
noblest
&
sagest
persons
of
his

.
And
so
it
was
about
a
yere
after
:
that
Phylip
of
Ualoys
was
crowned
kyng
of
France
/
&
that
all
the
barones
and
nobles
of
the
realme
had
made
their
homage
and
fealty

/
except
the

who
had
nat
done
his

for
the

:
nor

Than
the

These

And
ther

&
than
they
rode

they
came

.
Where
as
the

And

The

/
and
ther
they
shulde

in

And
so
they

and
lay

It

Thanne

Than

And
a

the

came

kyng
Phylip
of

/
howe
the
kynge
of
Englande
was

Than

who

The

For

Ther

and
thus
these
kynges

other

taryed

of
.xv.
dayes
/
and
in
the
meane
tyme
there
were
many
wordes

ordynaunces
deuysed
/
but
as
farr
as
I
coude
knowe

kyng
Edwarde

made
his

nor

Nor
the
kynge
of
Englande
wolde
nat
procede
any
farther
in

any

/
concernyng

But
rather
he
was
detmyned
to

agayne
into

/
and
there
was
redde
openly
the
priuyleges
of
auncyent

the
which
was
declared
in

and
howe
and
in
what

he
shulde
do

Than

And
so
thus
the
kynge
of
Englande
tooke
his
leaue
and
departed
fro
the
kynge
of
Fraunce
ryght
amyably
.
And
of
all
other
princes
that
was
there
/
and
retourned
agayne
into

/
and
laboured
so
longe
that
he

Where
his

And
demaunded
tidynges

The

and
sayd
in

there
was
no
realme
coude
be

And

And

had
well
ouersene
the
maner
and
fourme
/
how
his
auncyent

There

.
Than
the
kyng
sent
agayn
other
ambassadours
to
the
kyng
of
scottis
his
brother
in
lawe
/
sufficiently
to
sommon
hym
/
and
if
he
wolde
nat
be
other
wyse
aduysed
/
than
the
kyng
gaue
them
full
auctorite
to
defie
hym
.
And
so
the
day
of
the
assembly
of
the
kyngis
oste
aproched
/
at
the
whiche
day
the
kyng
of
Inglande
and
all
his
ost
aryued
at
New
castell
vpon
Tyne
and
there
taried
.iii.
dayes
for
the
residue
of
his
oste
that
was
comyng
after
.
And
on
the
fourth
day
/
he
departed
with
al
his
oste
toward
Scotland
/
and
passed
through
the
landes
of
the
lord
Persy
/
and
of
the
lorde
Neuell
/
Who
were
two
great
lordes
in
Northumberland
.
and
marched
on
the
scottis
.
And
in
like
wyse
so
dyd
the
lorde
Rosse
/
and
the
lorde
Ligy
/
and
the
lorde
Mombray
.
Than
the
kynge
and
all
his
oste
drew
toward
the
cite
of
Berwyke
.
For
the
kyng
of
Scotland
made
no
other
answere
to
these
.ii.
messengers
/
but
as
he
dyd
to
the
fyrst
.
wherfore
he
was
openly
defied
/
and
somoned
.
And
so
the
kyng
of
Ingland
and
his
oste
entred
into
Scotland
/
for
he
was
counsailed
/
that
he
shuld
nat
tary
at
siege
at
Berwike
/
but
to
ryde
forth
/
and
to
burne
the
Countrey
as
his
graund
father
dyd
/
and
so
he
dyd
.
In
whiche
iourney
he
wasted
&
distroyed
all
the
playn
countrey
of
Scotland
/
and
exiled
diuerse
townes
that
were
closed
with
dykꝭ

with

lyn
/
and
ran
ouer
all
the
countrey
there
abowte
to
Scone
/
&
distroyed
the
good
towne
of
Douf
fremlyn
but
they
dyd
no
euyll
to
the
abbey
/
for
the
kyng
of
Ingland
commaunded
that
no
hurte
shuld
be
done
therto
/
and
so
the
kyng
conquered
all
the
countrey
to
Dondieu
and
to
●oubreten
a
strong
castell
standyng
on
the
marches
ayenst
the
wylde
scottis
/
where
as
the
kyng
of
Scottis
and
the
quene
his
wyfe
were
withdrawen
vnto
for
suretie
.
For
there
were
no
scottis
that
wolde
appere
afore
the
englisshe
men
for
they
were
all
drawen
into
the
forelf
of
Gedworth
/
the
whiche
wer
inhabitable
/
and
specially
for
them
that
knew
nat
the
countrey
/
wherin
all
the
scottis
wer
and
all
theyr
gooddis
.
And
so
they
set
but
a
lytle
by
all
the
rēuant
.
And
it
was
no
maruaile
thoughe
they
were
thus
dryuen
/
for
the
kyng
their
lorde
was
but
.xv.
yere
of
age
/
and
the
erle
of
Morrey
was
but
yong
/
and
the
nephew
of
Willyam
Duglas
that
was
slayne
in
Spayn
was
also
of
the
same
age
.
So
as
at
the
tyme
/
the
realme
of
Scotland
was
dispurueyed
of
good
capiteyns
.
And
whan
the
kyng
of
Ingland
had
ronouer
all
the
playne
countrey
of
Scotlande
/
and
taried
ther
the
space
of
.vi.
monethes
/
and
sawe
that
none
wold
come
agaynst
hym
.
Than
he
garnysshed
diuers
castels
that
he
had
wonne
/
and
thought
by
them
to
make
warre
to
all
the
other
.
Than
he
withdrew
fayre
and
easely
toward
Berwike
And
in
his
returnyng
he
wan
the
castell
of
Aluest
parteynyng
to
the
heritage
of
the
erle
Duglas
/
it
was
a
.v.
leagis
fro
Edēburge
/
and
ther in
the
kyng
set
good
capitayus
/
and
than
rode
small
iourneis
tyll
he
came
to
Berwike
the
whiche
is
at
the
entre
of
Scotlande
/
and
there
the
kyng
layd
rounde
about
his
siege
/
and
sayd
he
wolde
neuer
depart
thens
/
tyll
he
had
wonne
it
orels
the
kyng
of
Scottis
to
come
/
and
to
reyse
his
siege
parforee
.
And
within
the
towne
there
were
good
men
of
warre
set
there
by
the
kyng
of
Scottis
.
Before
this
cite
ther
were
many
assaultis
and
sore
skrymysshes
●ygh
euery
daye
/
for
they
of
the
cite
wolde
nat
yelde
them
vp
symply
/
for
alwaies
they
thought
to
be
reseued
/
how
be
it
there
was
no
succour
appered
.
The
scottis
on
mornyng
is
and
nyghtis
made
many
s●ryes
to
trouble
the
oste
/
but
lytle
hurte
they
dyd
/
for
the
englysshe
oste
was
so
well
kept
/
that
the
scottis
coulde
nat
entre
/
but
to
theyr
dammage
/
and
often
tymes
loste
of
theyr
men
.
¶
And
whan
they
of
Berwike
sawe
that
no
comfort
nor
ayde
came
to
them
fro
any
part
/
&
that
theyr
vitayles
began
to
fayle
/
&
howe
they
were
enclosed
both
by
water
and
by
lande
.
Than
they
began
to
fall
in
a
treate
with
the
kyng
of
Ingland
/
and
desired
a
truee
to
indure
a
moneth
.
and
if
within
the
moneth
/
kyng
Dauid
theyr
lorde
/
or
some
other
for
hym
come
nat
by
force
to
reyse
the
siege
/
than
they
to
rendre
vp
the
cite
/
their
lyues
and
gooddis
saued
/
and
that
the
soudiers
within
myght
safly
go
into
theyr
countrey
without
any
dammage
.
This
treaty
was
nat
lightly
graunted
for
the
kyng
of
Ingland
wolde
haue
had
them
yelded
symply
/
to
haue
had
his
pleasure
of
some
of
them
/
bicause
they
had
hold
so
long
ayenst
hym
.
But
finally
he
was
content
by
the
counsaile
of
his
lordis
.
And
also
ser
Robert
of
Artoys
dyd
put
therto
his
payne
who
had
ben
all
that
iourneye
with
the
kyng
/
&
had
shewed
hym
alwayes
/
home
he
was
uert
enheriter
to
the
crowne
of
Fraun●●
he
wolde
gladly
that
the
kyng
shuld
haue
made
warre
into
Fraunce
/
&
a
left
the
warres
of
Scotland
.
So
his
wordes
&
others
inclined
greatly
the
kyng
to
condiscend
to
the
treaty
of
Berwike
.
So
this
truee
and
treaty
〈…〉
s
graunted
.
Than
they
within
the
cite
sent
worde
to
their
kyng
/
in
what
case
they
stode
/
but
for
all
that
they
coulde
fynde
no
remedy
to
reyse
the
siege
.
So
the
cite
was
delyuered
vp
at
th
ende
of
the
moneth
/
and
also
the
castell
/
and
the
Marshals
of
the
os●
toke
possession
for
the
kyng
of
Ingland
/
and
the
burgesses
of
the
cite
came
and
dyd
theyr
feaute
and
homage
to
the
kyng
/
and
sware
to

of
hym
.
Than
after
the
kyng
entred
with
great
solempuite
/
and
taryed

.xii.
dayes
/
and
made
a

certayne
yong

and
squiers
to
helpe
to
kepe
the
landis
/
that
he
had
conquered
of
the
scottis
/
and
the
fronters
therof
.
Than
the
kyng
and
his
people
returned
to
London
/
and
euery
man
in
to
theyre
owne
countres
/
and
the

IN
this

there
was
great
dyscorde
bytwene

He
was

that
all

He

And

wherby
he
was
so

that
none

And

These

But
he

without

the

Than
they
said
they
wolde

:
&
so
thervpon
they
departed

Some

And
they

made

:
that
it
semed

made

And
the

And

a

and
was
reputed
for
a

&
had
alwayes
serued
truely

This
knyght
dyd
moche
honour
to
thenglysshemen
:
as
a

Of

Th

And

byfore

M.
men

Kyng

The

sawe
well
how
the

strong
and
well

/
and
that
it
shuld
be
long

tyll
they
had
wonne
the

.
Wherof
they
were
in
no

they
sawe
well
how

wynter
aproched
nere
&
as
yet

Than
they
counselled
the
kynge
to
set

wher
as
they
might
fynde

plentie
of

This

ordayned
to

trussed

and
pauylions
and
all

&
so

and
rode
towarde
mnūt

Thus
they
rode
in

/
euery
lorde
among

men
:
marshals
of
th
englysshe
hoost
were

Glocetter
and
th
erle
of
Suffolke
:
and
constable
of
Englande
was
th
erle
of
Warwyke
/
and
so
they
passed
ther
the
ryuer
of
Lescault
/
at
their
ease
.
And
whan
th
erle
of
Heynalt
had
acompanyed
the

out
of
th

/
and
that
he
shuld
passe
the
ryuer
and
entre
into
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
Than
he
toke
leaue
of
the
kyng
/
and
sayd
howe
he
wolde
ryde
no
farther
with

at
that
tyme
/
for

Philypp
his

&
he
wolde
nat

wold
go

serue
hym
in

/
as
he
had
serued

So
thus

and
their

rode
backe
to
Quesnoy
.
And
th

So

barded

in

fyftene
thousand

and
.xx.
M.
men
a

¶
Howe
these
two
kynges
departed
fro
Uironfosse
/
without
batayle
.
Cap.
xlii
.
IT
might
well
be
marueyledde
:
howe
so
goodly
a
sight
of
men
of
warr
so
nere
togyder
shulde
depart
without
batayle
.
But
the
french
men
were
nat
all
of
one
acorde
/
they
were
of
dyuers
opynyons
.
Some
sayed
it
were
a
great
shame
and
they
fought
nat
seyng
their
ennemys
so
nere
them
in
their
owne
countre
/
raynged
in
the
felde
.
and
also
had
promysed
to
fyght
with
them
:
and
some
other
sayd
it
shulde
be
a
great
folly
to
fyght
/
for
it
was
harde
to
knowe
euery
mannes
mynde
/
&
ieoperdy
of
treason
.
For
they
sayd
if
fortune
were
contrary
to
their
kyng
as
to
lese
the
selde
/
he
than
shuld
put
all
his
hole
realme
in
a
ieopardy
to
be
lost
.
And
though
he
dyd
dysconfet
his
ennemes
yet
for
all
that
he
shuld
be
neuer
the
nerer
of
the
realme
of
Englande
:
nor
of
such
landes
parteynyng
to
any
of
those
lordes
that
be
with
hym
alyed
.
Thus
in
striuyng
of
dyuers
opynions
/
the
day
past
tyll
it
was
past
noone
:
and
than
sodenly
ther
started
an
Hare
among
the
frenchmen
/
and
suche
as
sawe
her
cryed
and
made
gret
brunt
wherby
suche
as
were
behynde
thought
they
before
had
ben
fightynge
.
And
so
put
on
their
helmes
/
and
toke
their
speres
in
their
handes
/
and
so
ther
were
made
dyuers
newe
knyghtes
/
and
specially
th
erle
of
Heynalt
made
.xiiii.
who
wer
euer
after
called
knyghts
of
the
hare
.
Thus
that
batell
stode
styll
all
that
friday
/
and
besyde
this
stryfe
bytwene
the
counsellours
of
France
/
ther
was
brought
in
letters
to
the
hoost
of
recommendacion
to
the
frenche
kyng
and
to
his
counsell
.
Fro
kyng
Robert
of
Cicyle
/
the
which
kyng
as
it
was
sayd
was
a
great
astronomyer
:
and
full
of
great
science
.
He
had
often
tymes
sought
his
bokis
on
thestate
of
the
kyngs
of
England
and
of
france
:
&
he
founde
by
his
astrology
/
&
by
thēfluens
of
the
heuens
/
that
if
the
french
kyng
euer
fought
with
kyng
Edwarde
of
england
/
he
shuld
be
discomfited
.
wherfore
he
lyke
a
king
of
gret
wysdome
and
as
he
that
douted
the
peryll
of
the
frenche
kyng
his
cosyn
sent
often
tymes
letters
to
king
Philyppe
and
to
his
counsayle
:
that
in
no
wyse
he
shulde
make
any
batayle
agaynst
th
englyssmen
/
where
as
kyng
Edwarde
was
personally
present
.
So
that
what
for
dout
and
for
such
writyng
fro
the
kyng
of
Cecyle
dyuers
of
the
great
lordes
of
Fraunce
were
sore
a
basshed
:
and
also
kynge
Philyppe
was
enfourmed
therof
.
He
we
be
it
yet
he
had
great
wyll
to
gyue
batayle
:
but
he
was
so
counselled
to
the
contrary
/
that
the
day
passed
without
batell
and
euery
man
withdrue
to
their
lodgynges
.
And
whan
the
erle
of
Heynalt
same
that
they
shulde
nat
fight
he
departed
withall
his
hole
company
/
and
went
backe
the
same
nyght
to
Quesnoy
.
And
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
the
duke
of
Brabant
:
and
all
the
other
lordes
retourned
and
trussed
all
their
bagagis
/
and
went
the
same
nyght
to
Dauesnes
in
Heynalt
.
And
the
next
day
they
toke
leaue
eche
of
other
:
and
the
Almayns
/
and
brabances
departed
/
and
the
kynge
went
into
Brabant
with
the
duke
his
cosyn
.
The
same
friday
that
the
batell
shulde
haue
ben
the
french
kynge
whan
he
came
to
his
lodgyng
he
was
sore
dyspleased
/
bycause
he
departed
without
batayle
.
But
they
of
his
counsayle
:
sayd
howe
right
nobly
he
had
borne
hymselfe
/
for
he
had
halyantly
pursued
his
ennemies
/
and
had
done
somoche
that
he
had
put
them
out
of
his
realme
:
and
how
that
the
kyng
of
Englande
shuld
make
many
such
vyages
or
he
conquered
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
The
next
day
kyng
Philypp
gaue
lycence
to
all
maner
of
men
to
dept
/
and
he
thanked
right
courtesly
the
gret
lordes
of
their
ayde
&
socour
.
Thus
ended
this
great
iourney
and
euery
man
went
to
their
owne
The
frenche
kynge
went
to
saynt
Omers
/
and
sent

to
Tourney
/
to

/
and
to

:
and
to
the
other

marchyng

He
sent

and
made

of
that

And
he
sent

:
and
whan

The

dyd

So
thus

And
some

in
lyke

as
the
frenchmen
had

how
be

finally

debated
:
it
was
thought
that
th
erle
coude
do
no
otherwyse
but
to
make

And
it
was
ordayned
that
th

So

were
written

sealed
by

Th

who
made

Th

returned
to
th

to
his

/
&
shewed

And
than
th

prepared
for
men
of

and
in
Brabant

and
in

:
so
that

And
so
set

THey

And
so
they
sent

Therfore
ryde

and
so
began
to

And
assone
as

sawe
the

retourned

So
whan

they
a
lyghted

defended

¶
Howe
they
of
Doway
made
a
iournay
into
Ostrenan
/
and
howe
th
erle
of
Heynalt
was
in
England
.
Ca.
xlviii
.
AFter
the
dystruction
of
Escandure
:
the
duke
of
Normandy
went
to
Cambray
and
gaue
leaue
to
some
of
his
company
to
depart
/
and
some
he
sent
to
the
garysons
of
Doway
and
other
.
And
the
first
weke
that
they
came
to
Doway
they
yssued
out
and
they
of
Lyste
with
theym
:
so
that
they
were
a
thre
hundred
speares
/
and
their
capytaynes
were
:
sir
Loyes
of
Sauoy
/
th
erle
of
Geneue
/
th
erle
of
Uyllars
/
the
Galoys
of
the
Baulme
/
the
lorde
of
waurayne
/
the
lorde
of
Uasyers
:
and
so
they
went
and
brent
the
fayre
contrey
of
Ostrenan
in
Heynault
:
and
lest
nothynge
with
out
the
forteresses
/
wherwith
they
of
Bouhay●
were
sore
dysplesed
:
for
they
sawe
the
fyers
and
smokes
/
and
coude
nat
remedy
it
.
And
soo
they
sent
to
them
to
Ualencennes
/
that
if
they
wolde
yssue
out
a
sixe
hundred
speres
in
the
night
thei
shuld
do
moche
damage
to
the
frenchmen
/
who
were
spredde
abrode
in
the
playne
countrey
/
howe
be
it
they
of
Ualencennes
wolde
natte
go
out
of
the
towne
.
So
the
frenchmen
had
great
pray
/
and
brent
the
towne
of
Nyche
/
Descoux
/
Escaudan
/
Here
/
Monteny
/
Senayne
Uerlayne
/
Uargny
/
Ambretycourt
/
Lourg
/
Salr
/
Ruette
/
Newfuylle
/
Lyeu
saynt
Amande
:
and
all
the
vyllages
in
that
contrey
/
and
wan
great
pyllage
.
And
whan
they
of
Doway
were
gone
home
than
the
soudyers
of
Bohayne
yssued
out
and
brent
the
halfe
of
Descon
whiche
was
frenche
/
and
all
the
vyllages
parteyning
to
France
iuste
to
the
gates
of
Doway
:
and
the
towne
of
Desquerchyne
.
Thus
as
I
haue
deuysed
/
the
garysons
in
those
countreis
were
prouyded
for
and
dyuerse
skirmysshes
and
feates
of
warre
vsed
amonge
theym
:
the
same
tyme
there
was
certayne
soudyours
of
Almaygne
sette
by
the
bysshoppe
of
Cambray
in
the
fortresse
of
Male
Mayson
/
a
two
leages
fro
the
castell
Cambresien
:
and
marchynge
on
the
other
parte
nere
to
Landreches
/
wherof
the
lorde
of
Poytrell
was
captayne
/
for
th
erle
of
Bloys
though
he
wer
lorde
therof
/
yet
he
had
rendred
it
to
th
erle
of
Heynalt
bycause
he
was
as
than
frenche
.
So
on
a
day
the
Almayns
of
Male
Mayson
/
came
to
the
bayles
of
Landreches
/
and
draue
away
a
gret
pray
.
And
whan
they
of
Landreches
knewe
therof
/
the
lord
of
Poytrels
armed
him
&
all
his
company
/
and
yssued
out
to
rescue
the
pray
:
the
lorde
of
Poytrels
was
formast
hymselfe
/
and
layd
his
spere
in
the
rest
and
cryed
to
the
frenchmen
/
and
sayd
sirs
it
is
shame
to
flye
away
.
And
there
was
a
squyer
called
Albert
of
Colayne
/
he
turned
and
couched
the
spere
in
the
rest
/
and
came
rennyng
agaynst
the
lorde
of
Poytrell
/
and
gaue
hym
suche
a
stroke
on
the
targe
that
the
spere
flewe
all
to
peaces
:
yet
the
sayd
squyer
strake
hym
agayne
suche
a
stroke
that
the
spere
entred
through
his
harnes
/
&
into
his
body
iust
to
the
hert
:
so
that
he
fell
f●o
his
horse
deed
.
Than
his
companyons
h
〈…〉ous
/
as
the
lorde
of
Bansiers
/
Garard
de
Mastyne
and
John
of
Mastyn
/
and
other
pursued
the
frenchmen
/
in
suche
wyse
that
they
were
taken
and
s●ayne
the
moost
part
/
but
fewe
that
scaped
/
and
their
pray
rescued
and
suche
prisoners
as
they
had
of
Landreches
.
And
so
retourned
agayne
with
the
lorde
of
Poytrels
deed
:
after
whose
dethe
the
lorde
of
Floron
was
long
tyme
captayne
of
Landreches
/
and
of
the
castell
ther.
Thus
some
day
rode
forthe
the
frenchmen
/
and
some
day
the
heynous
/
and
dyuers
encountrynges
was
bytwene
them
.
Thus
the
countrey
of
Heynault
was
in
great
trybulacion
/
for
parte
therof
was
brent
:
and
the
duke
of
Normandy
was
styll
on
the
fronters
&
no
man
knewe
what
he
wolde
do
/
and
they
coulde
here
no
tidynges
of
th
erle
of
Heynalt
.
True
it
was
he
was
in
Englande
/
wher
as
the
kyng
and
the
lordes
made
hym
great
there
/
and
made
great
alyance
with
the
kyng
there
.
And
so
departed
out
of
Englande
/
and
went
to
th
emperour
Loys
of
Banyer
:
and
so
these
were
the
causes
why
the
he
taryed
so
long
out
of
his
owne
countrey
.
And
also
sir
Johanne
of
Heynalt
was
gone
into
Brabant
/
and
into
Flaunders
:
and
shewed
to
the
erle
of
Brabant
/
and
to
Jaques
Dartuell
the
desolacyon
of
the
countrey
of
Heynalt
:
prayeng
them
in
the
name
of
all
the
heynowes
/
that
they
wold
gyue
th●●
some
counsell
and
ayde
.
And
they
answered
/
that
they
were
sure
that
th
erle
wolde
shortly
returne
:
at
which
tyme
they
sayd
/
they
wolde
be
redy
to
go
with
hym
whyther
as
he
wolde
.
¶
Howe
the

.
Cap.

IN

The

In

And

WHan

ryuerr
a
thre

the

And
whan

they
thought
it

and
so
they
shewed

howe
that

Thus

¶
Of

wyllm̄
Baylleull
and
sir
Ualflart
de

made

the
bridge
of

.
Cap.

A
None
after
the
frenche
kyng
was
lodged
thus
at
the
bridge
of
Bouues
/
a
company
of
heynous
by
the
settyng
on

sir
Wyllm
Bayllule
and
the
lorde
Uauflart
de

who
sayd
howe
they
knewe
all

and
that
they
wolde
bring
them
into
such
a
place
on
the
frenche
hoost
/
that
they
shulde
haue
some
wynnynge
.
And
so
on
a
mornyng
they
departed
fro
t
hoost
about
sirscore
companyons
knyghtes
and
squyers
:
and
they
rode
towarde
Dont
de
Cressyn
/
and
made
the
lorde
Bayllule
to
be
as
chefe
/
and
that
to
his
baner
euery
man
shulde
drawe
.
Nowe
the
same
mornyng
rode
forthe
certayne
nombre
of
the
legoys
of
the
french
party
/
wherof
ser
Robert
de
Baylleull
brother
to
the
foresayd
sir
Wyllm
Baylleull
was
chefe
captayn
.
So
ther
were
two
bretherne
on
dyuers
parties
:
the
lyegois
had
passed
the
bride
of
Cressyn
/
and
were
a
foragyng
for
their
horses
/
&
to
se
if
they
coude
fynde
any
aduenture
profitable
for
them
.
The
heynowes
rode
all
that
mornyng
without
fyndyng
of
any
aduenture
/
and
they
also
passed
the
bridge
:
ther
was
such
a
myst
that
a
man
coude
nat
se
the
length
of
a
spere
before
hym
.
And
whan
the
heynous
were
all
ouer
:
than
they
ordayned
that
sir
Wyllm
Baylluell
with
his
baner
shuld
abyde
on
the
bridge
/
and
sir
Uauflart
/
sir
Raflet
de
Monceaur
/
and
sir
John
de
Uerchyne
shulde
aduenture
on
farther

And
so
they
went
so
farr
that
they
dasshed
in
to
t
hoost
of
the
kynge
of
Behayne
and
the
bysshopp
of
Liege
/
for
they
were
lodged

and
the
lorde
of
Rademache
had
made
watche
the
same
nyght
/
and
it
was
at
the
poynt
of
his
departyng

So
bytwene
them
ther
was
a
sore
conflict
/
how
be
it
fynally
the
heynous
drue
backe
towarde
the

was
counselled
to
repasse
agayne

bridge
with
his
baner
/
for
thei
had
dyuers
of
their
company
to
repasse
.
So
the
heynous
repassed
agayne
aswell
as
they
might
and
in
their
passynge
ther
were
many
dedes
of
armes
done
/
in
takynge
and
rescuyng
agayne
.
So
it
fortuned
▪
that
sir
Uauflart
coude
nat
repasse
the

&
so
was
fayne
to
saue

The

Howbeit

And

howbeit

To
that

came
the

Beauieu
hymselfe

for
he
feared
none
of

other
sydes
/
he
had
in

a

sharpe
and
well
●●elyd
and
aboue

ther
was

the

And

he
was
araynged
alonge

syde
of

and
deuysed
howe
they
might
get

riuer
the

byforce
or
by

/
for
than
they

They
ordayned

a

eche
one

raysed
on
their

a
great
engyn
and
dyd
cast

stones
so
that
it

Thus
the
first
day
passed
and
the
night
in
assayling
and
deuysing
howe
they
might
greue
them
in
the
fortresse
/
the
nexte

they
went
to
assaut
on

and
the

And
than
dyd

but
ther
were
so
many

suche

and
the

On

/
he
raysed
an

the
which
was

he
trymmed
it
to

And
he
cast

Than
the

And

A

▪
and

&
had

So

But
long

for

more
suretie
/
and
thyder

And

And

the
whiche
day
they
came
togyther
agayne
in
the

and
so
fell
agayne
into
their

.
And
so
fell

The

finally
acorded
on

for
a
yere
bytwene
all

and
all

.
And
also
bytwene
them
that

And
this

next

and
within
that
space
euery
partie
to

without

engyn
/
and
if
suche
companyes
woll
nat
kepe
the
peace
let
them
be
at
their

.
But
as
for
France
/
Pycardy
/
Burgoyne
/
Bretayne
/
and
Normandy
to
be
bounde
to
this
peace
without
any
excepcyon
:
and
this
peace
to
begyn
incontynent
bytwene
the
hostes
of
the
two
kynges
.
Also
it
was
determyned
/
that
bothe
parties
in
eche
of
their
names
shulde
sende
foure
or
fyue
personages
/
as
their
embassodours
and
to

/
&
the
pope

and
ther

Also
by
this
truse
euery
partie
to
enioy
and
possede
all
and
euery
thyng
/
that
they
were
as
than
in
possessyon
of
.
This
truse
incontynent
was
cryed
in
bothe
hoostes
/
wherof
the
brabances
were
right
gladde
/
for
they
were
sore
wery
with
so
long
lyeng
at
the
siege
.
So
that
the
nexte
day
assone
as
it
was
day
lyght
:
ye
shulde
haue
sene
tentes
taken
downe
/
charyotes
charged
/
&
people
remoue
so
thycke
/
that
a
man
wold
haue
thought
to
haue
sene
a
newe
worlde
.
Thus
the
good
towne
of
Tourney
was
safe
without
any
great
damage
:
Howe beit
they
within
endured
gret
payne
/
their
vytaylsbegan
to
fayle
(
for
as
it
was
sayd
)
they
had
as
than
scant
to
serue
them
a
thre
or
foure
dayes
at
the
moost
.
The
brabances
departed
quickely
/
for
they
had
grete
desyre
therto
:
the
kyng
of
Englande
departed
sore
agaynst
his
mynde
/
if
he
might
haue
done
other
wyse
/
but
in
manerhe
was
fayne
to
folowe
the
wylles
of
the
other
lordes
/
and
to
byleue
their
counsayls
.
And
the
frenche
kynge
coude
abyde
no
lengar
there
as
he
lay
for
the
yuell
ayre
/
and
the
wether
hote
.
So
the
frenchmen
had
the
honour
of
that
iourney
/
bycause
they
had
rescued
Tourney
/
and
caused
their
ennemies
to
departe
.
The
kyng
of
Englande
and
the
lordes
on
his
ꝑtie
sayd
how
they
had
the
honour
/
by
reason
that
they
had
taryed
so
long
within
the
realme
/
and
besieged
one
of
the
good
townes
therof
/
and
also
had
wasted
and
burnt
in
the
frenche
contrey
/
and
that
the
frenche
kynge
had
nat
rescued
it
in
tyme
and
hour
as
he
ought
to
haue
done
by
gyuyng
of
batayle
/
and
finally
agreed
to
a
truse
/
their
ennemies
beyng
styll
at
the
siege
and
brennyng
his
contrey
.
Thus
these

departed
fro
the

of

/
and
euery

The
kynge

¶
Howe
the
duchy
of
Bretayne
was
iuged
to
sir
Charles
of
Bloyes
.
Can.
lxx
.
IT
is
to
be
thought
that
the
frenche
kynge
was
sore
dyspleased
:
whan
he
knewe
that
the
erle
of
Mountforte
was
so
departed
.
How beit
he
taryed
tyll
the
.xv.
day
that
the
lordes
shulde
gyue
their
iudgement
on
the
duchy
of
Bretayne
/
whan
the
day
came
they
iudged
it
clerely
to
ser
Charles
of
Bloys
wyfe
:
who
was
doughter
to
the
brother
germayne
of
the
duke
last
deed
by
the
father
syde
whom
they
iudged
to
haue
more
right
than
the
erle
Mountforte
who
came
by
another
father
/
who
was
neuer
duke
of
Bretayne
.
In
other
reason
the●
was
:
they
sayde
though
that
th
erle
of
Mountfort
had
any
right
/
he
had
forfeted
it
two
wayes
.
The
one
bycause
he
had
relyued
the
duchy
of
a nother
lorde
than
of
the
frenche
kynge
/
of
whom
he
ought
to
holde
it
.
The
other
reason
was
bycause
he
had
broken
the
kynges
commaundement
:
and
disobeyed
his
a
rest
and
prison
/
as
in
goyng
away
without
leaue
.
Whan
this
iudgement
was
gyuen
in
playne
audyence
by
all
the
lordes
:
thanne
the
kyng
called
to
hym
the
lorde
Charles
of
Bloys
his
nephue
/
and
sayde
fayre
nephue
ye
haue
iudged
to
you
a
fayre
herytage
and
a
great
.
Therfore
hast
you
and
go
and
conquere
it
agaynst
hym
that
kepyth
it
wrongfully
/
and
desyre
all
your
frendes
to
ayde
you
:
and
I
shall
nat
fayle
you
for
my
part
/
I
shall
lende
you
golde
and
syluer
ynough
:
and
shall
commaunde
my
sonne
the
duke
of
Normandy
to
go
with
you
.
Than
ser
Charles
of
Bloys
inclyned
hym
to
his
vncle
/
thankyng
hym
right
humbly
:
than
he
desyred
the
duke
of
Normandy
his
cosyn
/
the

the

And
all
they
sayde
howe
they
wolde
gladly
go
with
hym
/
&
with
their
lorde
the
duke
of
Normandy
.
Than
these

departed
to
make

and
to

agaynst

¶
The

conquere
the

were
redy
.
They
departed
some
fro
Pares
and
some
fro
other
places
/
and
they
assembled
togyder
at
the
cytie
of
Angers
:
and
fro
thens
they
went
to
Ancennys
/
the
which
is
th
ende
of
the
realme
on
that
syde
/
and
ther
taryed
a
thre
dayes
:
than
they
went
forthe
into
the
countrey
of
Bretayne
/
and
whan
they
were
in
the
feldes
/
they
nombred
their
company
to
a
fyue
thousande
men
of
armes
besyde
the
ge
no

/
the
which
were
a
thre
thousande

and
thre

oyd
lede

The

called

and
besyde
that
they
had
many
erosbowes

of
whome
sir
Galoys
be

Baulme
was

.
Than
all
these
went
to
a
strong
castell
standynge
on
a
hyghe
mountayne
called
Chastōceaulx
ther
was
th

it
was
furnysshed

warr
:
&
captayns
ther
were
two
knyghtes
of
Lorayne
called
syr
Gyles
/
and
sir
Ualeryan
.
The
lordes
of
France
toke
counsell
to
besiege
this
castell
:
for
they
thought
if
they
shulde
leaue
such
a
fortres
behynde
them
/
it
shuld
do
them
great
damage
.
So
they
beseged
it
rounde
about

and
made
many
assautes
/
specially
the
genowayes
dydde
what
they
might
to
attayne
prayse
at
the
begynning
:
but
they
lost
often
tymes
of
their
company
/
for
they
within
defended
themselfe
so
sagely
that
it
was
longe
or
they
toke
any
damage
.
But
finally
the
assaylantꝭ
brought
thyder
somoch
tymbre

wod
and
fagottes
/
that
they
fylled
therwith
the
dykes
:
so
that
they
might
go
●ust
to
the

/
they
within
cast
out
stones

chalke

and
brennynge
fyre

howbeit
they
without

of

&
had
instrumetes
wherby
they
myght

Than
they
with

saued

thafie
the

of
Normanvy
who
was

ther
/
delyuered
the

as

who
incontynent
set
ther
a
good
garyson
to

:
and
to

.
Than
they
went
towarde

:
wher
as
they
harde
how
th

their

the
marshals

they
feersly

and
in

So

The

drue
towarde

layed
siege
rounde

Than
the
men
of
warre
within
the
towne
and
the
burgesses
armed
them
/
and
went
to
their
defences
as
they
were

some

On

They

some
fled
away

scaped

shewed

Than
some
went
to

and
ouer
toke

/
ther
began
a

Than

also
of

Than
at
last
sir
Henry
the
captayne
sawe
that
it
was

for
by
his

he
sawe

AS

douted
that
wors
shulde
come

than
they
aduysed
and
spake
togyder
secretly
/
so
that
finally
they
concluded
to
treat
with
the
lordes
of
France
.
So
that
they
myght
come
to
haue
peace
&
to
haue
their
chyldren

frendes
clerely
delyuerd
out

They
made
this
treatie
so
secretly
:
that
at

The

The

and
to
exyle

Than
they
toke
counsell
what
they
shulde

they
thought
themselfe

And

The

there
were

The

Than

the

for
they
kept

And

So
that
all
the
strength

And

with

/
&
bycause
it
was
darke
to

intent
to
make

they
made
great
fiers
:
so
that
the

Wherby
they
within

/
many
were
a

so
rose
sodenly
and
ran
towardes

without

or

Thus

th

So
thus

they

The

was
to

Th

In

sayde
if
your
wordes
be
trewe
I
shall
kepe
couenaunt
and
more
.
¶
Nowe
ye
shall
here
the
maner
howe
the
lorde
Gaultiers
father
was
slayne
:
it
was
trewe
that
somtyme
ther
was
a
bysshoppe
in
Cambresis
/
a
Goscoyne
borne
/
of
the
house
of
Myrpoyse
.
And
so
it
fortuned
that
in
his
dayes
/
ther
was
at
a
tyme
a
great
tournayeng
before
Cambrey
:
wher
as
there
were
.v.
C.
knyghtis
on
both
parties
:
and
ther
was
a
knyght
gascoyne
●ourneyed
with
the
lorde
of
Manny
father
to
sir
Gaultier
/
&
this
knyght
of
Gascoyne
was
so
sore
hurt
and
beaten
that
he
had
neuer
helth
after
but
dyed
:
this
knyght
was
of
kynne
to
the
sayde
by
stho●●e
.
Wherfore
the
lorde
of
Manny
was
in
his
〈◊〉
and
of
all
his
lynage
/
a
two
or
thre
yere
after
certayne
good
men
laboured
to
make
peace
bytwene
them
/
and
so
they
dyd
.
And
for
a
mendes
the
lorde
of
Manny
was
bounde
to
go
a
pylgrimage
to
saynt
James
and
so
he
went
thyder
warde
:
and
as
he
came
foreby
the
towne
of
Ryoll
/
the
same
season
th
erle
Charles
of
Ualoyes
brother
to
kynge
Philyppe
/
lay
at
siege
before
the
Ryoll
/
the
whiche
as
than
was
englysshe
:
and
dyuers
other
townes
and
cyties
than
pertayning
to
the
kynge
of
Englande
father
to
the
kynge
that
layed
siege
to
Tourney
.
So
that
the
lorde
of
Manny
after
the
retournyng
of
his
pylgrimage
:
he
came
to
se
th
erle
of
Ua●oys
who
was
ther
as
kyng
and
as
the
lorde
of
Many
went
at
night
to
his
lodgyng
/
he
was
watched
by
the
way
by
certayne
of
them
of
the
lynage
of
hym
that
the
lorde
of
Many
had
made
his
pylgrimage
for
.
And
so
without
th
erles
lodgyng
he
was
slayne
and
murdred
and
no
man
knewe
who
dyd
it
/
howe
be
it
they
of
that
lynage
were
helde
suspect
in
the
mater
but
they
were
so
stronge
and
made
suche
excuses
that
the
mater
past
/
for
ther
was
none
that
wold
pursue
the
lorde
of
Mannes
quarell
.
Than
th
erle
of
Ualoyes
caused
hym
to
be
buryed
in
a
lytell
chapell
in
the
felde
/
the
which
as
than
was
without
the
towne
of
Ryoll
:
and
whan
th
erle
of
Ualoyes
had
wonne
the
towne
/
than
the
walles
were
made
more
larger
/
so
that
the
chapell
was
within
the
towne
.
Thus
was
sir
Gaulter
of
Mannes
fader
slayne
and
this
olde
man
remembred
all
this
mater
/
for
he
was
present
whan
he
was
buryed
.
Thanne
sir
Gaultier
of
Manny
went
with
this
gode
aged
man
to
the
place
wher
as
his
father
was
buryed
and
ther
they
founde
a
lytell
tombe
of
marble
ouer

/
the
which
his

after

Thanne
the
olde
man
sayd
:
sir

father
than
the
lorde
of
Manny
redde

/
and
ther
he
founde
that
the
olde
man
had

and

And
within
two

after
he

And

THe
siege
before
Calais
enduredde
longe
/
and
many
thynges
fell
in
the
meane
season
/
the
whiche
I
canne
nat
write
the
fourthe
parte
.
The
frenche
kynge
had
sette
men
of
warre
in
euery
fortresse
in
those
marchesse
in
the
countie
of
Guynes
/
of
At
thoyes
/
of
Boloyne
/
and
aboute
Calays
/
and
had
a
great
nombre
of
genowayes
/
normayns
/
and
other
on
the
see
:
so
that
whan
any
of
th
〈…〉
glysshmen
wolde
goo
a
forragynge
other
a
〈◊〉
or
horsebacke
/
they
founde
many
tymes
harde
aduentures
/
and
often
there
was
skirmysshing
about
the
gates
and
dykes
of
the
towne
/
and
often
tymes
some
slayne
and
hurte
on
bothe
parties
/
some
day
y●
one
part
lost
and
some
day
the
other
.
The
kynge
of
Englande
caused
engyns
to
be
made
to
oppresse
theym
within
the
towne
/
but
they
within
made
other
agayne
to
resist
the
so
that
they
toke
lytell
hurt
by
them
/
but
nothynge
coude
come
into
the
towne
but
by
stelth
/
and
that
was
by
the
meanes
of
two
maryners
/
one
called
Maraunt
/
and
the
other
Mestryell
/
and
they
dwelt
in
Abuyle
/
by
theym
two
they
of
Calays
were
often
tymes
reconforted
and
fresshed
by
stelth
and
often
tymes
they
were
in
great
●yll
/
chased
and
nere
taken
:
but
alwayes
they
scaped
and
made
many
englysshemen
to
be
drowned
.
All
that
wynter
the
kyng
lay
●●yll
at
the
siege
/
and
thought
and
ymagined
euer
to
kepe
the
commentie
of
Flaunders
in
frendshyppe
/
for
he
thought
by
their
meanes
the
soner
to
c●e
to
his
entent
/
he
sende
often
tymes
to
them
with
fayre
promyses
:
sayeng
that
if
he
myght
gette
Calys
he
wolde
helpe
them
to
recouer
〈◊〉
/
and
Doway
with
all
their
appurtenaunces
.
So
by
occasyon
of
sache
promyses
/
whyle
the
kyng
was
in
Normandy
towardes
Cressey
and
Calays
/
they
went

and
ther

They
helde
a
great

before
that

/
and
●ore
constrayned
them
by

/
but
within
were
●our
knyghtes
captayns
set
there
by
the
frenche
kyng
to
kepe
the

of

sir
Ewstace
of

/
sir

they
defended
the

in

that
the

wa●
nothyng

so
departed
and
retourned

but
whyle
the
kynge

he
sent

messangers

and
made

by

Whan
the

had
the
kyngis
gode
wyll
:
than
he
sent
certayne
messangers
into
Flanders
to
the
burgesses
of
the
good
townes
/
and
shewed
them
so
fayre
reasons
/
that
the
counsayles
of
the

sent

The

and
went
into
Flaunders
:
wher
he
was
receyued
with
great
●oye
/
and
gyuen

Ass
one
as
the

Northampton
/

they

somoche
with

that

had
rather
that

th
erle
shulde
take

kyng
of
Englandes
doughter

than

Brab●t
/
And
so
to
do
they
affectuously
desyred
their
lorde
&
shewed
hym
many
fayre
reasons
/
to
drawe
hym
to
that
way
:
so
that
the
burgesses
that
wer
on
the
duke
of
Brabantes
partie
durste
nat
say
the
contrary
/
but
than
the
erle
in
nowyse
wolde
concent
therto
/
but
euer
he
sayde
he
wolde
natte
wedde
her
whose
father
had
slayne
his
/
though
he
myght
haue
halfe
of
the
hole
realme
of
Englande
.
Whanne
the
flemmynges
sawe
that
:
they
sayd
howe
their
lorde
was
to
moche
french
and
yuell
counsayled
/
and
also
sayd
howe
they
wolde
do
no
good
to
hym
/
syth
he
wolde
nat
belyue
their
counsayls
:
than
they
toke
and
putte
hym
in
Cortoyse
prison
and
sayd
howe
he
shulde
neuer
depart
without
he
wolde
folowe
and
byleue
their
counsayls
.
Also
they
sayd
that
the
erle
his
father
belyued
and
loued
to
moche
the
frenchemen
/
for
if
he

he
shuld

lorde
in
all
christendome
/
and
recouered
agayne
Lysle
/
Doway
/
and
Bethwyn
/
&
yet
alyue
.
Thus
the
mater
abode
a
certayne
space
:
the
kynge
of
Englande
lay
styll
at
the
siege
before
Calays
/
and
kept
a
great
court
that
Christmas
.
And
about
the
begynnynge
of
lent
after
:
came
thyder
out
of
Gascoyne
the
erle

Derby
/
the
erle
of
Penbroke
/
the

of
Canforte
/
and
dyuers
other
knyghtes
and
squyers
/
that
had
passed
the
see
with
the
erle
.
Thus
the
erle
of
Flaunders
was
long
in
danger
amonge
the
stemynges
in
Cortoyse
prison
/
and
it
greatly
anoyed
hym
.
Than
at
last
he
sayde
he
wolde
byleue
their
counsayle
:
for
he
knewe
well
he
sayd
that
he
shulde
haue
more
profet
there
/
than
in
any
other
contrey
.
These
wordes
reioysed
greatly
the
flemynges
:
than
they
toke
hym
out
of
prison
/
&
suffred
hym
to
go
a
haukyng
to
the
ryuer
the
which
sport
the
erle
loued
well
▪
but
euer
ther
was
good
watche
layde
on
hym
/
that
he
shulde
nat
steale
away
fro
theym
:
and
they
were
charged
on
their
lyues
to
take
good
hede
to
hym
.
And
also
they
were
suche
as
were
fauourable
to
the
kyng
of
England
:
they
watched
hym
so
nere
that
he
coude
nat
pysse
without
their
knowledge
This
endured
so
longe
that
at
last
the
erle
sayd
that
he
wolde
gladly
haue
to
his
wyfe
the
kyng
of
Englandes
doughter
than
the
flemmynges
sende
worde
therof
to
the
kynge
and
to
the
quene
and
poynted
a
day
that
they
shuld
come
to
Bergus
in
the

/
and
to
bringe
their
doughter
with

/
and
they
wolde
bring
thyder
their
lorde
the
erle
of
Flanders
:
and
there
to
conclude
vp
the
maryage
.
The
kyng
and
the
quene
were
gladde
therof
:
and
sayde
that
the
flemmynges
were
good
men
/
so
to
Bergus
bytwene
Newport
and
Grauelynge
/
came
the
moost
saddest
men
of
the
gode
townes
in
Flaunders
/
and
brought
with
them
the
erle
their
lorde
in
great
estate
.
The
kyng
of
Englande
and
the
quene
were
ther
redy
:
the
erle
curtesly
inclyned
to
the
kyng
and
to
the
quene
/
the
kyng
toke
the
erle
by
the
ryght
hande
right
swetely
and
ledde

:
sayeng
as

/
as

helpe

:
the
day
of
the
batayle
of
Cressey
nor
the
nexte
day
after
I
neuer
herde
worde
of
hym
that
heshulde
be
there
/
the
yong
erle
by
semblant
made
as
thoughe
he
had
ben
content
with
the
kynges
excuse
/
than
they
fyll
in
communycacyon
of
the
maryage
/
there
were
certayne
artycles
agreed
vnto
by
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
and
the
erle
Loyes
of
Flaunders
:
and
great
amyties
ther
was
swor●e
bytwene
them
to
be
holden
.
And
there
the
erle
fyaunced
Isabell
the
kyng
of
Englandes
doughter
:
and
promysed
to
wedde
her
▪
so
that
iourney
brake
of
and
a
newe
day
to
be
apoynted
at
more
leaser
/
the
flemmynges
retourned
into
Flaunders
with
their
lorde
/
and
the
kynge
of
Englande
with
the
quene
went
agayne
to
the
siege
of
Calays
.
Thus
the
mater
stode
a
certayne
tyme
:
and
the
kynge
and
the
quene
prepayred
greatly
agayne
the
maryage
for
iewelles
and
other
thynges
to
gyue
away
/
acordyng
to
their
behauyours
.
The
erle
of
Flanders
dayly
past
the
tyme
at
the
ryuer
and
made
semblant
that
this
maryage
pleased
him
greatly
:
so
the
flemmynges
thought
that
they
were
than
sure
ynough
of
hym
/
so
that
there
was
nat
so
great
watch
made
on
hym
as
was
before
/
but
they
knewe
nat
well
the
condycion
of
their
lorde
/
for
what
soeuer
countenan e
he
made
out
warde
/
his
inwarde
courage
was
all
frenche
.
So
on
a
day
he
went
forthe
with
his
hawkes
/
the
same
weke
that
the
maryage
shulde
haue
ben
finysshed
/
his
fauconer
cast
of
a
faukon
to
an
hearon
/
and
th
erle
cast
of
a nother
:
so
these
two
faukons
chased
the
hearon
/
and
the
erle
rode
after
as
to
folowe
his
faucon
.
And
whan
he
was
a
gode
way
of
and
had
the
aduantage
of
the
feldes
:
he
dasshed
his
spurres
to
his
horse
/
and
galoped
forth
in
suche
wyse
that
his
kepars
lost
hym
/
styll
he
galoped
forthright
/
tyll
he
came
into
Arthoyes
and
ther
he
was
in
suretie
.
And
so
than
he
rode
into
Fraunce
to
kyng
Philyp
and
shewed
hym
all
his
aduenture
:
the
kynge
and
the
frenchmen
sayd
howe
he
had
dalt
wysely
/
the
englysshmen
on
the
othersyde
said
howe
he
had
betrayed
and
disceyued
them
▪
but
for
all
that
the
kyng
left
nat
to
kepe
the
flemmynges
in
amyte
:
for
he
knewe
well
the
erle
had
done
this
dede
nat
by
their
counsell
/
for
they
wer
sore
dyspleased
therwith
.
And
the
excuse
that
they
made
:
the
kyng
soone
byleued
it
in

The

the

and
all

to

themselfe
simply
howe
be

The

And

In

:
in

to

/
to

and
to

:
so
it
fortuned
that
the
lorde
John
Candos
rode
the

day
coostyng
the
french
host
/
and
in
like
maner
the

one

had
ryden

auiewed

and
as
these
two

retourned
towardes
their

they
mette

eche

enbraudred

Than
the
lorde
Cleremont
sayd
:

I

I

So
they
departed
with
out
any
more
doyng
and
eche
of
them
returned
to
their
hoost
:
the
cardynall
of
Pyergort
coude
in
no

sonday
make
any
agrement
bytwene
the

/
and
whan
it
was
nere
nyght
he
returned

Poicters
.
That
night
the
frenchmen
toke
their
ease
they
had
prouision
ynough
/
and
the
englysshmen
had
great
defaut
:
they
coude
get
no
forage
nor
they
coude
nat
depart
these
without
danger
of
their
ennemyes
.
That
sonday
th
englysshmen
made
great
dykes
and
hedges
about
their
archers
to
be
the
more
stronger
/
and
on
the
monday
in
the
mornynge
the
prince
and
his
company
were
redy
apayrelled
as
they
were
before
:
and
about
the
sonne
rysing
in

maner
were
the
frenchmen

The
same
morning
be
tymes
the
cardynall
came
agayne
to
the
frenche
hoost
/
and
thought
by
his
preachyng
to

/
but
than
the
frenchmen
sayd
to
hym
retourne
whyderye
woll
/
bringe

wordes
of

(
and
ye

)
Whan
the
cardynall
sawe
that
he
traueyled
in
vayne
:
he
toke
leaue
of
the
kyng
and
than
he
went
to
the
prince
(
and
sayd
)
sir

but

Than
the
prince
sayd
:
the

(
god

so

In

sir

god
gyue

day
that
grace
to
be
the
best
knyght
of

and
so
toke

by

hande
.
Than
the
knyght
departed
fro
the
prince
and
went
to
the
formast
front
of
all
the
batayles
all
onely
acompanyed
with
foure
squyers
/
who
promysed
nat
to
fayle
hym
:
this
lorde
James
was
a
right
sage
and
a
valyant
knight
/
and
by
hym
was
moche
of
the
hoost
ordayned
and
gouerned
the
day
before
.
Thus
sir
James
was
in
the
front
of
the
batayle
/
redy
to
fight
with
the
batayle
of
the
marshalles
of
Fraunce
:
In
lykewyse
the
lorde
Eustace
Dambreticourt
dyd
his
payne
to
be
one
of
the
formast
to
sette
on
.
Whan
sir
James
Audeley
began
t
〈…〉
tte
forwarde
to
his
ennemyes
:
it
fortuned
to
sir
Eustace
Dambretycourt
as
ye
shall
here
after
.
ye
haue
herde
before
howe
the
almayns
in
the
french
host
were
apoynted
to
be
styll
a
horsebacke
:
sir
Eustace
beyng
a
horsebacke
layed
his
spear
in
the
rest
and
ran
into
the
frenche
batayle
/
and
than
a
knyght
of
almaygne
called
the
lorde
Loyes
of
Coucoabras
/
who
bare
a
shelde
syluer
/
fyue
rosses
goules
:
and
sir
Eustace
bare
ermyns
two
hamedes
of
goules
.
Whan
this
almaygne
sawe
the
lorde
Eustace
come
fro
his
company
he
rode
agaynst
hym
:
and
they
mette
so
rudely
that
bothe
knightes
fell
to
the
yerth
/
the
almayne
was
hurt
in
the
shulder
/
therfore
he
rose
nat
so
quickely
as
dyde
sir
Eustace
/
who
whan
he
was
vp
and
had
taken
his
breth
/
he
came
to
the
other
knyght
as
he
lay
on
the
grounde
/
but
thanne
fyue
other
knyghtes
of
almayne
came
on
hym
all
at
ones
&
bare
hym
to
the
yerth
.
And
so
perforce
there
he
was
taken
prisoner
and
brought
to
the
erle
of
Nosco
/
who
as
than
toke
no
hede
of
hym
/
and
I
can
nat
say
whyther
they
sware
him
prisoner
or
no
but
they
tyed
hym
to
a
chare
and
there
lette
hym
stande
.
Than
the
batayle
began
on
all
partes
and
the
batayls
of
the
marshals
of
Fraunce
aproched
/
and
they
set
forthe
that
were
apoynted
to
breke
the
ray
of
the
archers
:
they
entred
a
horsebacke
into
the
way
/
where
the
great
hedges
were
on
bothe
sydes
sette
full
of
archers
/
assone
as
the
men
of
armes
entred
the
archers
began
to
shote
on
bothe
sydes
and
dyd
slee
and
hurt
horses
and
knyghtes
.
So
that
the
horses
whan
they
felt
the
sharpe
arowes
they
wolde
in
no
wyse
go
forward
but
brewe
a
backe
and
stang
and
toke
on
so
feersly
/
that
many
of
them
fell
on
their
maisters
:
so
that
for
p●●ace
they
coude
nat
ryse
agayne
.
In
so
moche
that
the
marshals
batayle
coude
neuer
come
at
the
prince
:
certayne
knyghtes
&
squyers
that
were
well
horsed
passed
through
tharchers
/
and
thought
to
a
●●he
to
the
prince
but
they
coude
nat
The
lorde
James
Judeley
with
his
four
squyers
was
in
the
front
of
that
batell
and
there
dyd
maruels
marmes
/
and
by
great
prowes
he
came
and
fought
with
sir
Arnolde
Dandrehen
vnder
his
owne
baner
/
and
ther
they
fought
longe
togyder
/
and
sir
Arnolde
was
there
sore
handled
.
The
batayle
of
the
marshals
began
to
dysorder

on

&
raunsomed

for
they
sayd
ther
wolde
sette
no

so

/
but
that
he
myght

The

whan
they

taken

and
that
euery

was
trussed

than
they
toke

The

Whan

syluer

,
that
in

retournynge
they
assauted
no

They
thought
it
a
gret
dede
if
they
might
bringe
the
frenche

and
ryches
that

As

Than

They

And

A

gretly
it
displeased
hym
the

of
Nauerre
/
and
also
it
was
right
dysplesant
to
some
of
the
burgesses
of
Eureur
/
but
they
coude
nat
amende
it
:
bycause
the

.
This

and
often
tymes
he

to
a

well
the

Whan

And

that

&
with

Well

Wyllyam
Ishall

without

by
asubtyltie
that
I

This
burgesse
dyde
somoche
in
a
briefe
tyme
:
that
he
dyd
gette
a
hundred
burgesses
of
his
opinyon
:
This
lorde
of
Granuyll
came
in
and
out
into
the

at
his
pleasure
without

/
for
he
was
neuer
in

with
sir
Philyp
of
Nauerre
in
no
iourney
that

bycause

So

ANone

ther

for
certayne
people
of
the
common
vyllages
without
any
heed
or

/
assembled
togyder
in
Beauuosyn
.
In
the
beginnyng
they
past
nat

they
sayd
howe
the

and
that

all

and
eche

sayd
it
was
true

said
all

one
voyce
/
shame
haue
he
that
dothe
nat
his
power
to
distroy
all
the
gentylmen
of
the
realme
.
Thus
they
gathered
togyder
without
any
other
counsayle
&
without
any
armure●
sauyng
with
staues
and
knyues
/
and
so
went
to
the
house
of
a
knyght
dwellyng
therby
/
&
brake
vp
his
house
and
slewe
the
knyght
and
the
lady
and
all
his
chyldren
great
and
small
/
and
brent

.
And
than
they
went
to
another
castel
and
toke
the
knight
therof
and
bounde
hym
fall
to
a
stake
:
and
than
vyolated
his
wyfe
and
his

and

〈…〉
dy

And

so

they
were

and
euer
as
they
went
forwarde
they
encreased
/
for
suche
lyke

So
that
euery
gentylman
fledde
fro

tooke
their

chyldren
with
them
/
and
fledde
.x.
or

leages
of

/
and
left
their

These
myscheuous
peple
thus
assembled
without

or
armoure
:
robbed

brent

slewe
all
gentylmen

And
he
that
dyd

was
most
preased
with

greattest
maister
:
I
dare
nat
write
the

Amonge
other
they
slewe
a

after
dyd

and
rosted
hym
at
the
fyre
:
in

syght

/
and
after

had
ben
enforced

rauisshed
with

They
made
among

one

Cleremont
in
Beauuosyn
:
they
chose
hym
that
was
moost
vngracyoust
of
all

and
they
called
hym
kyng
Jaques
Goodman
:
&
so

They

In

maner
these

So

they
ran
skirmysshing
to

of

And
som
tyme
the
duke
lay
at
Charenton
/
and
another
season
at

More
/
so
that
nothyng
came
to
Parys
:
on
that
syde
nother
by
lande
nor
by

/
for
the
duke
caused

the

of
Sayne

to
be
surely
kept
:
and
brende
all
the
villages
about
Parys
suche
as
were
nat
closed
the
better
therby
to
chastyce
theym
of
Parys
.
And
if
Parys
had
nat
than
ben
fortifyed
with
walles
and
dykes
:
it
had
bene
distroyed
/
none
durst
go
into
Parys
nor
go
out
for
feare
of
the
dukes
men
/
who
rode
on
bothe
sybe●●
the
ryuer
of
Sayne
at
his
pleasure
/
ther
were
none
to
resyst
them
.
The
prouost
kept
styll
in
loue
the
kyng
of
Nauerr
and
toke
of
hym
counsayle
:
and
the
commons
day
and
nyght
dyd
worke
on
the
defence
of
the
cytie
/
and
kept
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
warre
/
naueroyse
and
englysshe
archers
:
and
other
companyons

There
was
in
the
cytie
certayne
well
dysposed
persons
:
as
John
Mayllart
/
and
Symonde
his

/
and
dyuerse
of
their
lynage
that
were
sore
dyspleased
of
the
duke
of
Normandyes
yuell
wyll
:
but
the
prouost
had
so
drawen
to
his
opynion
all
maner
of
men
that
none
durst
say
contrary
to
hym
/
without
he
were
slayne
without

.
The
kyng
of
Nauer
seyng
the
varyaunce
bytwene
them
of
Parys
/
and
the
duke
of
Normandy
:
thought
and
supposed
that
the
maner
coude
nat
long
endure
in
that
state
.
And
he
had
no
great
trust
to
the
commontie
of
Parys
:
and
so
he
departed
thense
as
curtesly
as
he
myght
and
went
to
saynt
Denyce
and
there
he
kepte
with
hym
a
good
nombre
of
soudyers
/
at
the
wages
of
them
of
Parys
.
The
duke
thus
lay
a
sixe
wekes
at
Charenton
/
and
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
at
saynt
Denyce
/
they
pylled
and
eate
vp
the
countre
on
euery
syde
:
bytwene
these
parties
entreated
for
a
peace
/
the
archbysshoppe
of

the
bysshoppe
of
Ausser

the
bysshoppe
of

/
the
lorde
of
Momorency
/
the
lorde
of
Fyenes
/
and
the
lorde
of
saynt
Uenant
.
And
so
often
they
went
bytwene
the
ꝑties
/
and
so
sagely
demeaned
their
busynesse
:
that
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
with
his
owne
good
wyll
without
constreynt
/
went
to
Charenton
to
the
duke
of
Normandy
and
excused
hymselfe
of
that
he
was
had
in
suspecte
.
First
of
the
dethe
of
the
two
knightes
/
and
of
maister
Symonde
Bucy
and
of
the
dispyte
that
the
prouost
had
●one
to
hym
in
the
paleys
of
Parys
.
And
they
he
sware
that
it
was
vnknowen
to
him
:
and
there
promysed
the
duke
to
stycke
with
hym
in
good
&
yuell
/
and
there
peace
was
made
bytwene
them
.
And
the
kynge
of
Nauersayde
howe
he
wolde
cause
them
of
Parys
/
to
make
amendes
for
that
they
had
done
.
The
duke
was
content
that
the
commons
of
Parys
shulde
haue
peace
/
soo
that
he
myght
haue
the
prouost
and
.xii.
other
burgesses
/
suche
as
he
wolde
chose
within
Parys
/
to
correct
theym
at
his
pleasure
.
All
these
thynges
agreed
:
the
kynge
of
Nauer
retourned
to
saynt
Denyce
/
and
the
duke
went
to
Meaulx
in
Bry
/
and
gaue
leaue
to
all
his

Certayne

sayeng
howe
they
shulde

The
duke
answered
(
and
sayd
)
he
wolde
kepe
the
peace
made
and
that
he
had
sworne
vnto
/
without
any
brekyng
of
his
part
:
but
to
entre
into
Parys
surely
(
he
sayd
)
he
wolde
neuer
/
tyll
he
had
satysfacryon
of
theym
that
had
dyspleased
hym
.
The
prouost
of
the
marchantes
and
his
sect
:
often
tymes
visyted
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
at
saynt
Denyce
/
and
shewed
hym
howe
they
were
in
the
in
dygnacion
of
the
duke
of
Normandy
for
his
sake
bycause
they
delyuered
hym
out
of
prison
/
and
brought
hym
to
Parys
.
Therfore
they
sayd
to
hym
:
●ir
for
goddessake

no
great
truste
in
the
duke
nor
in
his
counsayle
.
The
kynge
sayd
certaynly
frendes
ye
shall
haue
none
yuell
:
but
my

shal
be

I
wolde
counsayle

so
that

And
hardely
sende
it

So
thus
after
this
the
prouost
two

sende
euer

Than

The
prouost
agreed
therto
(
and
sayd
)
howe

so
on

he
caused

so
yssued

&
than
they
herde
howe
the

Than
they
departed

shulde
nat
scape
them

and
poynted
to
mete
togyder

besyde

So
they
went
by
two
wayes
the
one
partie
went
all
day
about
Mount
Marter
/
and
coude
nat
fynde
their

The

taryed

feldes
tyll
it
was
to
wardes

Thanne
they
retourned
homewarde
without

for
they
thought
than
to
haue
no
trouble
/
and
so
they
went
weryly
by
heapes
/
some
bare
his
salette
in
his
hande
/
some
on
his
backe
/
some
drewe

and
some
in

shethes
.
They
toke
their
way
to
entre
into
Parys
by
the
gate
saynt
Honoure
/
and
sodenly
as
they
went
/
they
founde
th
englysshmen
in
a
lowe
way
/
they
were
a
foure
hundred
well
apoynted

Whan
they
saw
the
frenchmen
they
sette

and
at
the
first
metyng
they
beate
downe
mo

fledde

were
beate
downe

Ther
were
slayne
in
that
chase
mo
than
sixe
hundred
/
and
they
were
pursued
to
the
barryers
of
Parys
:
of
this
aduenture
the
prouost
was
greatly
blamed
of
the
commons

they
sayd
howe

The

Thus
in

trouble
were
they
of

they
wyst
nat
of

to
beware

they
were
night

of
them
/
bycause
of
the
peace
that
he
had
sworne
to
the
duke

And
also
for
the
outrage
that
they
of
Paris
had
done
to
th
englysshe
soudyers
/
wherfore
he
well
consented
that
they
shulde
be
chastysed
:
also
the
duke

dyd
suffre
it
/
bycause
the
ꝓ
uost
of

The

spake
shamefully

Who
sawe

It

They

Anone

Than
they

but
the

and
whan
they
sawe
that
they

as

The
naueroyse
folowed
fast
after
cryeng
saint
George
Nauer
:
they
were
better
horsed

so

Whan

whan

And
amonge

They

The

And
assoone
as
they
might
they
came
by
Flaunders
to
Calays

and
ther
abode
for
the
kynges
commyng
:
so
it
was

the

came
nat
so
soone
to
Calays
as
it
was
sayde
he
shulde

wherfore
moche
people
resorted
thyder
/
so
that

Also
bredde

wyne
/
hay
/
and
otes
:
and
other
ꝓuisyons
were
very
dere
and
scant

so

golde
nor
syluer
:
and
euer
it
was
said
the
kyng
commeth

.
Thus
taryed
there
the
lordes
of
Almaygne
/
of
Behayne
/
of
Brabant
/
of
Flanders
/
and
of
Heynault
:
fro
the

so
that
ther

many
that
wer
fayne
to

And
if
the
kyng
had
been
there
than
/
lodgyng
wolde
haue
ben
strayter
:
the

was
so

And
also
it
was
dout

The

sende
nat

/
many
of

were
come
of
their

good
wylles
/
trustynge
to
haue
some
aduauntage
:
and
some
thought
to

sende
ouer
before
the

with
foure
hundred
speares
/
and
two
thousand

And
whanne
the

:
these
lordes
straungers
made
great
ioye
of

and
demaunded
tidynges
of

The

excused
the

These

The

Than
these

departed
fro

and
rode
towarde

:
and
they
had
nat
ryden
halfe
a

but
they
met
a

multytude
of

.
And
after

the
prince
of

richely
besene
and
all

/
wherof
ther
was
suche

he
rode

redy
raynged

as

Thus

and
all

caryages
bytwene
both
hoostes

the

order
these

lyked
maruelusly

¶
Whan
these
strangers
had
well
regarded
this
company
:
and
had
reuerently
saluted
the
prince
and
such
lordes
as
were
with

and
the

louyngly
receyued

So
they
rode
on
tyll
they
came
to
Calays
/
and
the
seconde
day
after
the
kyng
sent
them
their
answere
by
thre
sufficient
knyghtes

and
they
shewed
theym
playnly
that
the

had
nat
brought
with

treasur
sufficient

pay
all
that
they
desyred
/
and
to

that

but
if

This

Howbeit

but
that
the

delyuerd
them

Howe beit
some
of
those

went
agayne
to
the
kyng
to
serue
hym
at
aduenture
:
they
thought
it
shame
to
retourne

doyng
.
I
shall
deuyse
to
you
somwhat
the
order
that

:
for
ther
neuer
departed
out

nor
so

¶
Or
the

departed
out

be
put

pla●es
and
stronge
castelles
in

to
be
the
more
surer

them
and
the
frenche
kyng
was
set

the
towre
of
London
and
his
yonge
sonne
with
hym
/
and
moche
of
his
pleasure
and
sport
restrayned
:
for
he
was
than
straytlyer
kept
than
he
was
before
.
Than
euery
man
was
commaunded
to
go
to
Douer
/
where
as

/
so
euery
man
drewe
thyder
none
abode
at

bytwene

So

went

except
suche

the

/
castels

&
hauyns

whan

Than
the

And
therfore

to
returne
agayn
backe
euery

And
so

They

.
And
also
the

had
ben
long
poore
and
sore
wasted
:
and
it
was
a
dere
season
in
the

had
dyed

And

of

out

:
except
otes
and
strawe
/
wherfore
they
made
as
good

Also

dyd

great
trouble
and
their

also
:
for
moost
part
day
and
night
it
reyned
without
cease
/
so
that
wyne
that
yere
was
lytell
worth
.
THe
kyng
of
England
rode
by
small
iourneys
tyll
he
aproched
Balpausmes
/
and
I
shall
shewe
you
of

all
the
townes
/
cyties
/
castelles
/
and

/
which
way
the
kyng
went
were
surely
kept
:
for
euery
towne
in
Picardy
tooke
in
soudyours
at
their
wages
for
their
suretie
.
The
erle
of
saynt
Poule
with
two
hundred
speares
was
in

/
the

of

/
sir
Baudwyn
Dannekyns
maister
of
the
crosbowes
at

Nuyntines
.
And
thus
in
euery
towne
and
cytie
:
for
they
knewe
playnly
that
the
kyng
of
Englande
wolde
come
and
ley
siege
to
Reynes
/
so
it
was
that
they
of
Peron
in
Uermandoys
/
the
whiche
was
in
the
kyng
of
Englandes
way
/
had
no

nor

of
their

:
and
the
englysshmen
aproched
dayly
/
wherfore
they
were
nat
well
at

.
This
towne
standeth
on
the
ryuer
of
Some
and
th
englysshmen
lightly
euer
folowed
the
ryuers
:
at

they
of

remembred
them
of
sir
Galahaut
of

/
who
was
nat
receyued
as

Than
they
sende
courtesse
letters
to

:
desyryng
that
he
wolde
helpe
to

of
Perone
with

as
he
coude
gette
/
and
promysed
to

him
for
his
owne
person
euery
day
twentie
frankes
/
and
for

&
for

with
thre
horses
one
franke
a
day
.
Sir
Galahaut
who
desyred
to
exercyse
the
feat
of
armes
/
and
sawe
howe
he
was
desyred
of
them
of
Peron
his
neyghburs
/
he
lightly
agreed
to
them
.
And
sende
them
worde
howe
he
wolde
be
with
them
the
seconde
day
after
:
he
prepared
hym
and
gette
suche
company
as
he
coude
/
and
so
departed
fro
Tourney
with
a
thyrtie
with
hym
/
and
alwayes
his
nombre
encreased
.
And
he
sende
to
sir
Roger
of
Coloyne
to
mete
with
hym
at
a
certayne
place
apoynted
:
and
this
sir
Roger
came
thyder
with
a
twentie
with
hym
.
So
that
at
last
this
ser
Galahaut
had
a
fyftie
speares
/
and
lodged
one
night
a
ꝓchynge
to

warde
within
two

of
thenglysshe
hoost
/
in
a
lytell
vyllage
in
the
feldes
the
whiche
was
all
boyde
:
for
all
the
people
of
the
countrey
were
fledde
into
the
forteresses
.
The
next
mornyng
they
defmyned
to
entre
into
Peron
/
for
they
were
nat
farre
thens
:
and
whan

was
after

about
the

of
mydnight
/
and
that
they
had
sette
their
watche
and
iangeled

of

maters
/
than
ser
Galahault
sayde
we

/
but
yet
or
we
entre
I
shall
counsell

may
fortune

To
this
agreed

and
kept
it

and
at
the
brekyng
of
the
day
they
were
redy
&
their

sadled

and
so
rode
forthe
in
good

went
out
of
the
way
to

/
and
coosted
the
wodes
to

And

the
reason

it

aunse
theyr

They
ymagined
well
the
courage
of
the
kyng
of
Englande

and
howe
that
he
and
his

the
realme
of
France
into
great
pouerte
:
and
sawe
well
howe
the
realme
coulde
nat
longe
endure
in
that
case
/
for
the
rentes
of
the
lordes
and
of
the
churches
were
nygh
lost
in
euery
parte
.
As
than
there
was
a
sage
and
a
discrete
persone
Chauncellour
of
Fraunce
/
called
syr
William
of
Montague
bysshop
of
Tyrwin
by
whose
counsaile
moche
of
France
was
ruled
/
&
good
cause
why
:
For●euer
his
counsayle
was
good
and
true
/
and
with
hym
there
were
.ii.
other
clerkes
of
great
prudence
/
the
Abbotte
of
Clugny
/
and
the
maister
of
the
friers
prechers
/
called
syr
Symon
of
Langres
a
maister
in
diuinite
.
These
two
clerkes
at
the
desyre
of
the
duke
of
Normandy
/
and
of
the
hole
counsaile
of
Fraunce
departed
from
Paris
with
certayn
articles
of
peace
/
and
syr
Hewe
of
Geneue
lorde
of
Autun
in
their
company
.
And
they
went
to
the
kynge
of
Englande
/
Who
rode
in
Beausse
towarde
Galardon
.
These
two
clerkes
and
.ii.
knyghtes
spake
with
the
kyng
/
and
began
to
fall
in
treatye
for
a
peace
to
be
had
of
hym
and
hys
alies
.
To
the
whiche
treatye
the
prince
of
Wales
/
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
and
the
erle
of
Marche
were
called
.
This
treatie
was
nat
as
than
concluded
/
for
it
was
longe
a
dryuynge
/
and
allwayes
the
kyng
went
forward
.
These
embassadours
wold
nat
so
leaue
the
kyng
:
but
stylsued
and
folowed
on
theyr
pourpose
:
For
they
sawe
howe
the
frenche
kynge
was
in
so
poure
estate
/
that
the
realme
was
lykely
to
be
in
a
great
ieopardye
if
the
warre
contynued
a
somer
longer
And
on
the
other
syde
the
kynge
of
Englande
requyred
so
great
thynges
and
so
preiudiciall
to
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
that
the
lordes
wolde
nat
agree
therto
for
theyr
honours
/
So
that
al
theyr
treatie
(
the
whiche
endured
a
.xvii.
dayes
styll
folowynge
the
kynge
)
they
sent
euer
theyr
proces
dayely
to
the
duke
of
Normandy
to
the
citie
of
Parys
/
euer
desyrynge
to
haue
agayne
answere
what
they
shulde
do
farther
/
the
whyche
ꝓcesse
were
secretly
and
sufficiently
examyned
in
the
regentes
chambre
at
Parys
/
and
answere
was
sent
agayne
by
wryttynge
to
them
/
what
they
shulde
do
/
and
what
they
shulde
offre
.
And
so
these
ambassadours
were
often
tymes
with
the
kynge
/
as
he
went
forewarde
towarde

cite
of
Charters
/
as

placess
.
and
great
offers
they
made
to
come
to
a
conclusion
of
the
warre
/
and
to
haue
a
peace
/
To
the
whiche
offers
the
kynge
of
England
was
hard
harted
to
agree
vnto
:
for
his
entension
was
to
be
kynge
of
Fraunce
/
and
to
dye
in
that
estate
.
For
if
the
duke
of
Lancastre
his
cosyn
had
nat
counsayled
hym
to
haue
peace
/
he
wolde
nat
agreed
thervnto
:
but
he
sayd
to
the
kynge
:
Syr

in
tyme
to
come
the
men
of
warr
the
were
on
theyr
parte
/
and
shulde
auoyde
out
of
suche
fortressess
and
garisons
as
they
hewe
at
the
tyme
&
had
helde
in
the
realme
of
France
muste
depart
into
some
other
place
:
therfore
the
kyng
of
England
and
his
counsaile
thaught
it
more
erpedient
&
profitable
/
that
these
men
of
warre
that
thus
had
lyued
by
pillage
/
shuld
drawe
into
the
duchie
of
Britayn
the
whiche
was
a
good
plentifull
countrey
/
rather
than
they
shulde
retourne
agayne
into
Englande
/
and
robbe
and
pille
there
.
So
this
imaginacion
made
shortly
the
englysshemen
to
breke
of
fro
the
communicacion
of
the
article
of
Britayne
/
the
whiche
was
euill
done
and
a
great
synne
/
that
they
dyd
nomore
in
that
mater
than
they
dyd
.
For
if
both
kynges
had
ben
well
wyllyng
therto
by
the
aduice
of
both
their
counsailles
peace
might
haue
ben
made
bitwene
the
parties
/
and
eche
of
them
to
haue
ben
content
with
that
hadde
ben
gyuen
them
by
reason
of
that
treatye
/
and
therby
the
lord
Charles
of
Bloys
myght
haue
had
agayn
his
children
/
who
lay
as
prisoners
in
England
And
also
(
perauenture
)
had
lyued
longer
than
he
dyd
.
And
bycause
the
nothyng
was
done
than
in
that
mater
/
the
warres
were
neuer
so
great
in
the
duchie
of
Normandy
before
the
peace
made
bitwene
both
kyngis
/
as
it
was
after
:
as
ye
shall
here
recorded
in
this
historye
/
by
suche
barous
and
knyghtes
of
the
countrey
of
Britayne
/
who
vphelde
and
susteyned
/
some
the
our
parte
/
and
some
the
other
.
And
than
duke
Henry
of
Lancastre
/
who
was
a
right
valiant
&
a
sage
ymagined
knyght
/
&
greatly
loued
the
erle
of
Moū●ford
and
his
aduauncement
/
sayd
to
kyng
John
of
France
/
in
the
presens
of
the
kyng
of
England
and
before
the
moost
parte
of
both
theyr
counsailes
:
Syr
as
yet
the
truce
that
was
taken
before
Raines
/
bitwene
the
lord
Charles
of
Bloys
and
the
Erle
Mountforde
is
nat
expired
/
But
hath
day
to
endure
vnto
the
first
day
of
Maye
next
comyng
/
by
the
whiche
season
the
kyng
of
England
here
present
(
by
the
aduice
of
his
counsaile
/
and
consent
of
the
prince
his
sonne
)
shall
sende
the
yonge
duke
the
lorde
John
of
Mountforde
/
with
other
certayne
of
his
counsayle
into
Fraunce
to
you
:
and
they
shall
haue
full
aurtorite
and
power
to
comyn
/
and
to
determyne
all
suche
ryght
/
as
the
sayde
lorde
John
ought
to
haue
by
the
succession
of
his
father
/
in
the
duchie
of
Britayne
.
So
thus
by
you
and
your
counsaile
&
by
ours
to
guether
some
good
way
shal
be
taken
bytwene
them
:

for

〈◊〉
I
thynke
it
were
good
/
that
the
trew●e
were
relonged
vnto
the

of

John

nere
folowynge
.
And
as
the
duke
of
Lancastre
had
deuysed
/
so
was
it
done
and
concludedde
.
And
than
the
lordes
spake
of
other
maters
.
Rynge
John
of
France
(
who
had
great
desyre
to
retourne
into
Fraunce
/
as
it
was
reason
)
shewed
to
the
kynge
of
Englande
with
good
corage
all
the
signes
of
loue
that
he
might
do
.
and
also
to
his
nephewe
the
prince
of
wales
And
in
lyke
wyse
so
dyd
the
kynge
of
England
to
hym
/
for
the
confirmacion
of
more
loue
.
These
two
kynges
/
who
by
the
ordinaunce
of

called

:
that
is
to

And
also
bicause
that
the
lande
of
saynt
Sauiour
the
Uicount
in

/
the
profite
of
the
whiche
came
yerely
into
Englande
by
the
gyft
and
sale
of
the
lorde
Godfrey
of
Harcourt
made
to
the
kynge
of
Englande
:
as
it
hath
ben
shewed
here
before
.
The
whiche
lande
was
nat
comprised
in
the
ordinaunce
of
the
sayd
treatye
and
peace
:
Therfore
who
so
euer
shulde
holde
that
lande
/
shulde
become
subiecte
and
do
homage
therfore
to
the
frenche
kyng
.
Therfore
the
kyng
of
Englande
gaue
that
lande
to
syr
John
Chandos
:
who
had
done
often
tymes
acceptable
seruyce
to
hym
and
to
his
children
:
and
at
the
request
of
the
kyng
of

/
the
frenche
kyng
by
good
delyberacion
with
good
courage
and

confyrmed

sealed
to
the

John

/
he
to

to

the

as
his

for

the
whiche
was
a
fayre
lande
and
a
profytable
/
for

a
yere
it
was
well
worthe
.xvi.
hundred
frankes
.
And
besyde
all
this
yet
were
there
diuerse
other
letters
of
alyaunces
made
/
of
the
whiche
I
cannat
make
mencion
of
all
:
for
the
space
of
fyftene
dayes
orthere
aboute
/
whyle
these
two
kynges
theyr
sonnes
/
and
counsailours
were
at
Calais
there
was
dayly
commonynge
/
and
newe
ordinaunces
deuysed
and
confermed
to
ratifye
the
peace
nat
hyndrynge
nor
brekynge
the
fyrst
letters
/
for
they
were
euer
made
berynge
one
date
to
be
of
the
more
surete
/
of
the
whiche
I
haue
sente
the
copy
of
the
regestres
in
the
Chaunceryes
of
both
kynges
.
¶
And
whan
these
thynges
were
so
well
made
deuised
and
ordeyned
/
that
they
coude
nat
be
amended
nor
corrected
/
so
that
it
was
thought
by
reason
of
the
great
alyaunces
and
boundes
wherin
the
said
kynges
and
theyr
children
were
bode
/
and
had
so
sworne
to
kepe
the
peace
/
that
it
was
nat
likely
to
haue
ben
broken
:
howe
be
it
the
peace
helde
nat
longe
/
as
ye
shall
here
after
in
this
boke
.
So
that
whan
the
hostages
for
the
redemption
of
the
frenche
kynge
/
were
comen
to
Calys
/
and
that
the
kynge
of
Englande
had
●worn̄
to
kepe
them
peasably
in
his
realme
and
that
the
.vi.
M.
frankes
were
payd
to
the
kyng
of
Englandes
deputies
.
Than
the
kyng
of
Englande
made
a
supper
to
the
frenche
kynge
in
the
castell
of
Calais
right
wel
ordered
and
the
kynges
children
and
the
duke
of
Lancastre
in
the
moost
greattest
lordes
and
barons
of
Englande
serued
the
kynges
bare
heeded
/
and
after
supper
fynally
these
two
kynges
toke
leaue
eche
of
other
ryght
gracyously
and
amyably
/
&
●o
the
frenche
kynge
returned
to
his
lodgyng
And
the
next
mornyng
/
the
whiche
was
in
the
vigill
of
saynt
Symonde
and
Jude
the
Frenche
kynge
departed
out
of
Calais
and
all
suche
as
thulde
departe
with
hym
.
And
the
kynge
went
〈◊〉
fote
a
pilgrimage
to
our
lady
of
Boloyn
/
and
the
prince
of
Walys
/
and
his
two
bretherne
in
his
company
/
the
lorde
Lyonelle
and
the
lorde
Aymon
.
And
so
they
went
a
fote
to
dyner
to
Boloyn
/
where
they
were
resceyued
with
great
ioy
And
there
was
the
duke
of
Normandy
redy
taryenge
for
them
/
and
so
all
these
lordes
went
on
fote
into
the
churche
of
our
lady
/
and
dyd
their
offerynges
right
deuoutly

and
than
returned
into

abbay
there
/
the
whiche
was
apparelled
for
the
kynge
/
and
to
receyue
the
lordes
of
Englande
.
And
so
there
they
were
all
that
day
and
the
nexte
nyght
after
retourned
agayne
to
Calats
to
the
kynge
theyr

and
so
fynally
they
all
to

passed

With

The

And

And

In

quod
the

we
wyll
go

and
there
he
ordered

set

and
he

and

the

of

/
the
lorde
of

〈…〉
er
&
the
lorde
Groslee
of

/
and
there
were
also
the

〈◊〉
〈◊〉
●ewes
of

/
syr
Hewe
of

/
the

〈◊〉
/
and
dyuerse
other
good
knyghtes
and
squiers
/
all
desyrynge
to
auaunce
their
honours
and
to
ouerthrowe
these
companyons
that
thus
pylled
the
countrey
without
any
title
of
reason
/
and
there
it
was
ordeyned
that
the
archeprest
/
and
sir
Reynolde
of
Carnoll
shuld
gouerne
the
first
bataile
/
for
he
was
a
good
and
an
expert
knyght
and
he
had
in
that
bataile
.xvi.
hundred
fyghtynge
men
.
These
routes
of
companyons
that
were
on
the
mountayne
saw
right
well
the
orderynge
of
the
frenche
men
/
but
they
coude
nat
so
well
se
them
nor
theyr
gydyng
/
nor
aproche
well
to
them
/
but
to
theyr
great
daunger
or
damage
/
for
these
companyons
hadde
in
this
mountayne
a
thousande
cart
lode
of
great
stones
/
whiche
was
greatly
to
their
aduauntage
and
profitte
/
these
frenche
men
that
so
sore
desired
to
fyght
with
their
ennemies
/
howe
so
euer
they
dyd
they
coude
nat
come
to
them
the
nexte
waye
/
therfore
they
were
dreuen
of
necessite
to
cost
aboute
the
mountayne
/
where
there
ennemies
were
.
And
whan
they
came
on
that
syde
/
than
they
who
had
great
prouision
of
stones
began
to
caste
so
sore
downe
the
hyll
on
them
that
dyd
aproche
that
they
bette
downe
/
hurte
and
maymed
a
great
nombre
in
suche
wyse
that
they
myght
nor
durste
nat
passe
nor
aproche
any
nerer
to
theym
.
And
so
that
fyrst
bataylle
was
so
sore
beaten
and
defoyled
/
that
of
all
daye
after
they
dyd
but
litell
ayde
.
Than
to
theyr
succour
approched
the
other
bataylles
/
with
sir
James
of
Bourbon
his
sonne
/
and
his
nephewes
with
theyr
baners
/
&
a
great
nombre
of
good
men
of
warre
/
and
all
went
to
be
loste
/
the
whiche
was
great
damage
&
pite
/
that
they
hadnat
wrought
by
better
aduice
and
counsayle
than
they
dyd
.
The
archepreste
and
dyuerse
other
knyghtes
/
that
were
there
had
sayde
before
/
that
it
hadde
been
best
to
haue
suffered
theyr
ennemyes
to
haue
dislodged
oute
of
the
holde
that
they
were
in
and
than
to
haue
fought
with
them
at
more
case
/
but
they
coulde
nat
be
herde
.
¶
Thus
as
the
lorde
James
of
Bourbon
/
and
the
other
lordes
with
theyr
Baners
and
Penons
before
them
approched
and
costedde
the
sayde
mountayne
.
The
worste
armed
of
the
companyous
caste
styll
contynewally
stones
at
theym
/
In
suche
wyse
that
the
hardyest
of
them
was
dryuen
abacke
.
And
thus
as
they
helde
them
in
that
estate
a
great
space
/
The
great
fresshe
bataylle
of
these
companyons
founde
awaye
/
and
came
aboute
the
mountayne
well
raynged
and
hadde
cutre
theyr
speares
of
syxe
foote
of
lengthe
and
so
came
●ryenge
with
one
voyce
/
and
brake
in
amonge
the
frenche
men
.
So
at
the
firste
metyng
they
ouerthrewe
many
to
the
erthe
/
there
were
sore
strokes
on
bothe
partess
:
and
these
companyons
fought
so
ardently
that
it
was
marueyle
/
and
caused
the
frenchemen
to
recule
backe
.
And
there
the
archpreest
lyke
a
good
knight
fought
valyantly
/
but
he
was
taken
prisoner
by
force
of
armes
and
sore
hurte
/
and
dyuers
other
knightes
and
●●uyers
of
his
company
.
Wherto
shulde
I
make
lengar
rehersall
of
this
mater
:
in
effecte
the
frenchmen
had
the
worse
.
And
the
lorde
James
of
Bourbone
was
soore
hurte
and
sir
Peter
his
sonne
/
and
ther
was
slayne
the
yong
erle
of
Forestes
/
and
taken
sir
Reynolde
of
Forestes
his
vncle
/
th
erle
Duzes
/
sir
Robert
of
Beauieu
/
ser
Loys
of
Chalon
/
and
mo
than
a
hundred
knyghtess
:
and
with
moche
payne
the
lorde
of
Bourbone
and
his
sonne
Peter
/
were
borne
in
to
the
cytie
of
Lyons
.
This
batayle
was
about
the
yere
of
our
lorde
god
:
a
thousande
/
thre
hundred
threscore
and
one
/
the
friday
after
Easter
day
.
¶
Greatly
were
they
of
the
countre
aba●●hed
/
whan
they
herde
that
their
people
were
dysconfyted
/
and
ther
was
none
so
hardy
nor
so
stronge
a
castell
but
trymbled
for
feare
.
For
the
wise
and
discrete
men
supposed
and
ymagined
that
great
myschefe
shulde
multiply
therby
/
without
god
put
to
som
remedy
.
and
they
of
Lyons
were
gretly
abasshed
/
whan
they
knewe
that
the
companyons
had
the
vyctorie
/
Howe beit
they
receyued
swetely
all
them
that
retourned
&
scaped
fro
the
batayle
/
and
were
sore
dysplesed
for
the
hurtes
of
the
lorde
of
Bourbon
/
and
of
sir
Peter
his
sonne
.
And
they
of
the
towne
ladyes
and
damoselles
right
goodly
dyde
visyte
hym
/
but
this
lorde
James
of
Bourbon
dyed
a
thre
dayes
after
the
felde
/
and
sir
Peter
his
sonne
lyued
nat
longe
after
:
and
they
were
sore
be
way
led
of
euery
creature
.
And
for
the
dethe
of
thiss
lorde
of
Bourbon
the
frenche
kyng
was
ryght
sore
displeased
but
he
coude
nat
amende
it
/
so
it
behoued
hym
to
passe
ouer
his
sorowe
as
well
as
he
might
.
NOw
lette
vs
speke
of
these
companyons
who
parseuered
styll
in
their
yuell
deds
/
as
people
reioysed
and
conforted
of
their
dedes
as
well
for
wynnynge
of
that
iourney
/
as
for
the
raunsomyng
of
many
good
prisoners
.
So
thus
these
companyons
ledde
their
tyme
at
the●●
pleasure
in
that
countrey
/
for
there
were
none
that
came
agaynst
theym
/
for
incontynent
after
the
discomfyture
of
Brunay
/
they
entred
and
spredde
abrode
in
the
countie
of
Forestes
/
and
pylled
and
wasted
all
the
countre●
except
the
foressess
.
and
bycause
they
were
so
great
a
company
almoost
nothynge
helde
agaynst
theym
.
And
so
they
deuyded
them
into
two
partes
/
and
sir
Seguyn
of
Batefoyle
had
the
lesse
parte●
howe
be
it
he
had
in
his
company
a
thre
thousande
fightyng
men
/
and
he
went
and
lay
at
〈◊〉
a
myle
fro
Lyons
/
and
fortefyed
the
place
maruelously
.
and
so
his
company
were
ther
about
in
the
marchesse
/
the
whiche
was
one
of
the
plentyfull
countrees
of
the
worlde
the
whiche
they
ouer
ranne
/
and
raunsomed
the
people
at
their
pleasure
:
that
is
to
say
all
the
countres
on
this
syde
/
and
beyond
the
ryuer
of
Some
/
the
countie
of
Mascon
/
the
archebysshoprike
of
Lyons
and
the
lande
of
the
lorde
of
Beauieu
/
&
all
the
countrey
to
Marcylly
to
Nonnes
/
and
to
the
countie
of
Neuers
.
The
other
parte
of
the
same
company
:
as
Nandos
of
Beaugeraunt
/
Espyot
Carnell
/
Robert
Briquet
/
Ortyngo
/
Bernarde
of
the
Salle
/
Lamyt
/
the
Bourge
Camas
/
the
Bourge
of
Bretuell
/
the
Bourge
of
Lespare
/
and
dyuers
other
of
one
sorte
and
affinyte
:
drewe
them
towarde
Auygnone
and
sayd
howe
they
wolde
se
the
pope
and
cardynalles
and
to
haue
some
of
their
money
/
orels
to
hare
and
to
pyll
the
countre
.
And
so
they
taryed
here
and
there
abydynge
for
the
raunsome
of
suche
prisoners
as
they
had
taken
/
and
also
to
se
if
the
truce
helde
bytwene
Fraunce
and
Englande
.
And
as
they
went
towarde
Auygnon
/
they
toke
by
the
way
townes
and
fortresses
/
so
that
none
helde
agaynst
them
/
for
all
the
countre
was
afrayed
.
And
also
in
that
countre
they
had
vsed
no
warre
:
so
that
suche
as
were
in
these
small
holdes
wyst
nat
howe
to
defende
themselve
fro
suche
men
of
warr
.
and
these
companyons
herde
howe
there
was
at
the
bridge
saynt
Esperyte
a
seuyn
leages
fro
Auygnon
great
treasure
and
richesse
of
the
countre
assembled
ther
togyder
/
on
trust
of
the
stronge
fortresse
:
and
so
the
companyons
aduysed
among
them
that
if
they
might
wynne
that
holde
it
shuld
be
gretly
to
their
aduauntage
and
profyte
/
for
thanne
they
thought
to
be
maysters
of
Roane
/
and
of
theym
in
Auygnon
.
And
on
this
purpose
they
stubyed
tyll
at
last
they
had
caste
their
aduyce
as
I
haue
herd
reported
in
this
maner
.
G●yot
d●
Pyn
/
and
the
lytell
Methyn
rode
with
their
company
in
one
nyght
a
fyftene
leages
/
and
in
the
mornynge
at
the
brekynge
of
the
day
/
they
came
to
the
towne
of
the
bridge
saynt
Spyryt
and
sodenly
toke
it
and
all
that
were
within
/
the
whiche
was
great
pyte
:
for
ther
they
slewe
many
an
honest
person
/
and
defoyled
many
a
da
〈…〉
and
wan
suche
tychesse
that
it
coude
〈…〉
/
and
great
puruyaunces
to
lyue
〈…〉
And
so
by
that
meanes
they
might
r●nne
at
their
●ase
without
daunger
/
one
●●●son
in
to
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
and
another
tyme
into
the
empyre
.
So
there
assembled
togyder
all
the
companyons
and
euery
day
ran
to
the
●a●es
of
Auygnon
wher
of
the
pope
and
〈…〉
were
in
great
affray
and
drede
.
&
to
these
companyons
made
there
a
soueraygne
〈◊〉
amonge
them
who
was
euer
moost
●omonly
enemy
to
god
and
to
the
worlde
.
BEsyde
these
there
were
in
Fraunce
great
nombre
of
pyliers
and
robbers
/
what
of
englysshmen
gascoyns
and
almaygnes
/
who
sayd
they
must
nedes
lyue
.
And
they
helde
styll
certayne
garysons
and
fortresses
/
for
all
that
the
kyng
of
Englandes
deputies
had
commaunded
them
to
auoyde
and
to
departe
.
How
be
it
they
wolde
nat
all
obey
wherwith
the
frenche
kynge
was
sore
displeased
and
all
his
counsell
but
whan
these
companyons
in
dyuers
places
herde
howe
these
other
companyons
had
ouer
throwen
the
lorde
of
Bourbon
and
a
two
thousande
knyghtes
and
squyers
and
taken
many
a
good
prisoner
.
And
also
had
taken
in
the
towne
saynt
E●pyrite
so
great
rychesse
that
it
was
a
thyuge
mcomparable
:
and
thynkynge
howe
they
were
lykely
to
wynne
Auygnon
/
or
els
to
putte
to
mercy
the
pope
and
cardynalles
and
all
the
coutre
of
Prouynce
.
Than
they
thought
all
to
departe
and
to
go
thyder
/
for
couetyse
to
〈◊〉
more
/
and
to
do
more
yuell
dedes
.
So
that
was
the
cause
that
dyuers
of
them
left
vp
their
fortresses
and
wente
to
their
companyous
/
in
hope
to
gette
more
●yllage
.
And
whan
that
p●pe
〈…〉
and
the
colledge
of
Ro
〈…〉
were
●ered
by
these
cursed
p●opl●
the●
were
greatly
abasshed
.
And
than
〈…〉
agaynst
these
〈◊〉
christen
people
who
dyde
their
payne
to
distroy
chr●s●●ndom●
as
other
bandes
had
done
before
without
tytell
of
any
reason
/
for
they
was●ed
all
the
countrey
without
any
cause
/
and
robbed
without
spa●yng
all
that
euer
they
coude
gette
and
〈◊〉
and
de●oyled
women
olde
and
yong
without
pytie
and
slewe
men
women
&
chyldren
without
mercy
doyng
to
them
no
trespace
.
And
suche
as
dyde
moost
shamefullyst
dedis
were
reputed
with
them
moost
valyaunt
.
So
than
the
pope
and
the
cardynalles
preached
openly
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
and
assoyled
(
a
pena
●t
cul
〈◊〉
all
those
that
wolde
take
on
them
this
croy
〈◊〉
.
And
that
wolde
abandon
their
bodyes
wil
lyngly
to
distroy
these
yuell
peple
and
their
companyons
/
and
ther
was
chosen
among
the
cardynals
sir
Peter
of
Monstier
cardynall
of
Arras
called
Dste
to
be
chefe
capitayne
of
the
croysey
.
And
mcontynent
he
departed
out
of
Auygnon
and
wente
and
taryed
at
Carpentrase
a
s●uyn
myle
fro
Auygnon
and
ther
he
retayned
all
maner
of
soudyers
suche
as
wold
saue
their
soules
matteynyng
to
these
sayd
perdous
/
but
they
shulde
haue
none
other
wages
/
wherfore
that
tourney
brake
for
euery
man
departed
▪
some
into
Lombardy
/
some
to
their
owne
countrees
/
and
some
went
to
the
sayd
yuell
company
:
so
that
dayly
they
encreased
.
So
thus
they
haryed
the
pope
/
the
cardynals
/
&
the
marchauntes
about
Auygnon
and
dyd
moche
yuell
tyll
it
was
ferr
into
the
somer
season
.
In

Wherwith

taken

but
he
shulde
fynde

Of
these
wordes
the
kynge
of
Ciper
was
well
content
/
and
than
departed
:
but
sir
John
Chandos
helde
hym
company
/
tyll
he
was
out
of
the
principalite
/
and
as
I
vnderstode
he
retourned
agayne
into
Fraunce
to
Parys
/
Wenynge
to
haue
founde
there
the
kynge
/
but
he
dyd
nat

for
the

was
nat
retourned
oute
of

for
he
lay
sore
sicke

euery
daye
he
enpayred
worse

the
whiche
greatly
displeased
the
kynge
of

and
the
quene
for
all
his
phisi●iens
sayde
he
was
in
great
pa●ell
.
And
all
this
knewe
right
well
the
duke
of
Normandy
/
Who
was
at
Parys

and
had
the
gouernynge
of

Was
come
oute
of

and
hadde
enfourmed
the
Duke
howe
it
stode
with
the
kynge
hys
father
.
The
kynge
of
Nauarre
also
knewe
the
certaynte
therof
/
and
was
no
thynge
sorye
:
For
he
hoped
(
that
if
the
frenche
●yng
dyed
)
that
the
Warre
/
the
Whiche
he
made
shulde
be
the
better
for

.
And
he
wrote
to
the

Who
Was

he
desyred
certayne

howbeir
that
was

So

Than
they

who
were

for
they

the

they
escryed

they
shuld

some
wold
go

sayng
it
shulde
be
gret
blame

Some
that
were
sadde

argued

the
which
was
to

Than
by

Let

So

lette

for
they
sawe
his

and
company
to
th
ende
of
the
batayle
/
wherfore
they
beleued
surely
that
he
had
ben
there
personally
.
Nowe
shall
I
shewe
you
of
the
bataile
&
howe
it
was
ended
AT
the
begynnyng
of
the
batayle
whan
sir
Johan
Jonell
was
come
downe
the
hyll
and
his
company
with
hym
/
and
the
Captall
also
and
his
company
trusting
to
haue
had
the
vyctorie
.
Howe beit
the
case
tourned
otherwyse
/
and
sawe
that
the
frenchmen
torned
them
in
good
array
and
ordre
/
than
they
perceyued
well
howe
they
had
ben
to
hasty
to
come
fro
their
aduauntage
.
Howbeit
lyke
valyant
knyghtes
they
basshed
nothynge
/
but
thought
to
wynne
the
victory
with
their
handes
in
playne
felde
.
And
so
a
lytell
they
reculed
backe
and
assembled
togyder
all
their
people
/
&
than
they
made
way
for
their
archers
to
come
forthe
on
before
who
as
than
were
behynde
them
.
And
whan
the
archers
were
forwarde
than
they
shotte
fiersly
togyder
/
but
the
frenchmen
were
so
well
armed
&
so
strongely
pauyssed
/
that
they
toke
but
lytell
hurt
/
nor
letted
nat
for
all
that
to
fyght
.
And
so
entred
in
among
th
englysshmen
&
naueroyse
/
and
they
in
lykewise
among
them
:
so
that
ther
was
bytwene
them
a
cruell
batayle
/
they
toke
by
strentgh
of
armes
&
wrestlyng
:
speres
/
ares
and
other
wepyns
eche
fro
other
/
&
toke
prisoners
on
bothe
partes
.
Thus
they
fought
hand
to
hand
so
valiantly
that
it
was
marueyle
to
be
holde
●o
ye
may
well
beleue
that
in
this
great
preas
and
parell
there
were
many
ouerthrowen
and
stay●e
for
ther
were
none
the
spared
other
I
say
to
you
playnly
the
frenchmen
had
no
nede
as
than
to
slepe
for
they
had
in
hande
people
hardy
&
full
of
corage
.
Wherfore
it
behoued
euery
man
to
aquyte
themselve
valyantly
/
&
to
defende
their
bodyes
&
kepe
their
countre
&
to
take
their
aduantage
whan
it
came
at
the
poynt
/
or
els
they
had
ben
all
disconfyted
.
Surely
the
bretons
&
gascons
dyd
acquyte
themselve
right
well
the
day
&
dyd
many
a
noble
feate
of
armes
.
Now
shall
I
shew
you
of

were
apoynted
to
set
on
the

who
were
right
well
horsed

toke
hede
to
nothyng
els
but
to
the
executyng
of
the●●
enterprice
that
they
had

so

fyghtyng
with
a
great

in

therwith
so
great
strokes

none
durst

of
their

brake
the

&
came

he
sayd
/

Than
he
caused
his
baners
to
be
auaunced
in
the
name
of

.
ANd
so
a
lytell
before
the
hour
of
prime
/
the
batayls
aproched
nere
togyder
/
the
whiche
was
a
goodly
sight
to
beholde
/
as
I
haue
herde
recorded
of
them
that
were
there
:
and
had
sene
it
.
the
frenchmen
were
so
close
togyder
that
a
man
coude
nat
cast
an
appell
among
them
but
it
shuld
a
fallen
on
a
bassenet

a
helme
euery
man
of
armes
bare
his
spere
right
befor
hym
cut
of
fyue
fote
of
length
/
and
a
shorte
axe
hangyng
by
his
syde
.
And
so
they
came
on
fayre
and
easely
euery
man
in
good
array
his
baner
before
him
and
right
well
aduysed
of
that
they
had
to
do
:
and
also
the
englisshmen
were
right
properly
apoynted
/
and
so
assembled
and
met
togyder
.
First
the
bretons
and
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
encountred
with
the
batayle
of

Robert
Canolle

Hewet
and
so
the

Bretayne
on
bothe
sydes
sette
the
baners
of
their
lordes
that
claymed
to
be
duke
eche
agaynst
other
.
And
so
at
the
first
encountre
there
was
a
sore
batayle
:
and
truely
the
archers
shot
at
the
beginnyng
right
fiersly
.
howbeit
their
shotte
dyde
lytell
hurt
to
the
frenchemen
/
they
were
so
well
armed
and
pauysshed
.
Than
tharchers
who
were
bygge
men
&
lyght
cast
away
their
bowes
and
entred
in
amonge
the
frenchmen
that
bare
the
axes
/
and
at
the
first
metyng
they
pulled
out
of
some
of
the
frenchemennes
handes
their
axes
/
wherwith
they
fought
after
ryght
hardely
.
There
was
done
many
a
●eat
of
armes
/
many
a
one
taken
and
rescued
a
gayne
:
&
he
that
was
ones
downe
it
was
herde
for
hym
to
releue
agayne
without
great
helpe
.
The
batayle
wherin
the

dressed
theym selfe

So

at
the
beginnynge
was
sore
oppressed
.
but

he
was
sore
encountred
/
so
that
with
a
stroke
of
an
are
he
was
stryken
on
the
vyser
of
his
bassenet
so
that
the
poynt
of
the
axe
entred
into
his
eyes
wherby
h●
lost
euer
after
the
syght
with
that
eye
/
but
for
all
that
stroke
yet
he
delt
styll
lyke
a
noble
knyght
.
There
was
recouerynge
of
batayles
and
baners
that
somtyme
were
downe
:
by
well
fightynge
were
releued
agayne
on
bothe
partes
.
Amonge
all
other
knyghtes
sir
Johan
Chandos
was
a
good
knyght
/
and
valyantly
fought
with
an
are
that
he
helde
in
his
handes
so
that
he
gaue
suche
strokes
that
none
durst
aproche
to
hym
:
for
he
was
a
great
and
a
myghty
knight
/
and
well
formed
of
all
his
membres
.
So
he
came
&
fought
agaynst
the
batayle
of
the
erle
of
Aucers
and
of
the
frenchmen
/
and
there
was
done
many
a
noble
dede
/
and
by
force
of
well
fightyng
the
batayle
was
broken
&
brought
to
suche
myschefe
that
brefely
after
it
was
discomfyted
:
and
all
the
baners
and
penons
of
that
batayle
ouerthrowen
to
the
erthe
/
&
the
lordes
put
to
flight
in
great
danger
and
mischefe
/
for
they
were
nat
ayded
nor
conforted
fro
no
part
:
for
euery
man
had
ynough
to
do
to
defende
hymselfe
.
To
say
the
trouthe
whan
a
disconsyture
falleth
/
they
that
ar
ouercome

discomfyted
for
a
lytell
/
for

and
if

C.
Thus
it
fortuned
in
this
batayle
of
Alroy
:
the
lordes
cryed
their
cryes
wherby
some
that
herde
it
were
recomforted
by
their
men
that
drue
to
them
/
and
some
were
nat
herde
/
they
were
so
in
the
prease
and
so
ferr
fro
their
men
.
Ho
wheit
finally
the
erle
of
Aucer
by
force
of
armes
was
sore
wounded
/
and
taken
vnder
the
standerd
of
sir
John
Chandos
and
yelden
prisoner
/
and
the
erle
of
Joigny
also
/
and
the
lorde
of
Prier
a
great
baneret
of
Normandy
.
¶
yet
all
this
season
that
other
batels
fought
styll
valyantly
/
and
the
bretons
helde
a
longe
space
in
good
ordre
.
howbeit
to
speke
truly
in
armes
they
kept
nat
their
ordre
so
well
as
thenglysshemen
&
bretons
that
were
with
th
erle
Mountfort
dyde
/
and
gretly
aueyled
to
them
that
day
the
batayle
on
the
wyng
that
sir
Hewe
Caurell
ledde
And
so
whan
th
englysshmen
sawe
the
frenchmen
begyn
to
breke
and
opyn
their
batell
they
were
greatly
reconforted
:
and
than
some
of
the
frenchmen
suche
as
had
their
horses
redy
aperelled
mounted
on
them
&
stedd
away
as
fast
as
they
myght
.
Than
sir
John
Chandos
and
a
company
with
hym
/
dressed
themselve
agaynst
the
batell
of
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
/
the
whiche
batayle
had
done
marueyls
in
armes
:
but
than
it
was
opyned
and
many
good
knightes
and
squters
brought
to
great
myschefe
.
There
was
gyuen
many
a
great
stroke
with
their
heuy
ares
/
and
many
a
bassenet
clouen
asondre
/
&
many
a
man
wounded
to
dethe
:
and
to
say
the
trouth
ser
Bertram
of
Clesquy
nor
his
company
coude
no
lenger
endure
their
enemyes
.
So
ther
was
taken
sir
Bertam
of
Clesquy
by
a
squyer
of
Englande
/
vnder
the
standerd
of
sir
John
Chandos
:
and
the
same
season
sir
Johan
Chandos
toke
prisoner
a
lorde
of
Bretayne
called
the
lorde
of
Raix
a
right
hardy
knyght
.
And
whan
this
batayle
of
bretons
began
thus
to
breke
/
all
the
other
batayls
were
clene
discomfyted
and
lost
their
aray
:
&
euery
man
fledde
away
as
fast
as
they
might
to
saue
them selfe
.
Except
a
certayne
good
knyghtes
and
squyers
of
Bretayne
/
who
wold
nat
leaue
their
lorde
Charles
of
Bloys
/
but
had
rather
dye
than
to
departe
with
reproche
.
And
so
they
drue
about
hym
and
fought
right
valtan●ly
/
and
ther
was
done
many
a
noble
dede
of
armes
.
And
so
the
lorde
Charles
of
Blois
and
s●che
as
were
about
him
helde
themselfe
togyder
a
certayne
space
/
defendyng
themselfe
right
valyantly
/
howe
be
it
finally
they
coude
nat
defende
them selfe
so
/
but
that
they
were
disconfyted
and
brought
out
of
ordre
by
force
of
armes
/
for
the
moost
parte
of
the
englysshmen
drewe
to
the
parte
.
There
was
the
baner
of
the
lorde
Charles
of
Bloyes
disconfyted
and
cast
to
the
erthe
and
he
slayne
that
bare
it
:
and
the
lorde
Charles
was
there
slayne
his
face
towarde
his
enemyes
/
and
a
bastarde
sonne
of
his
called
sir
Johan
of
Bloys
/
and
dyuers
other
knightes
and
squyers
of
Bretayne
.
And
as
I
vnderstode
/
it
was
so
ordayned
in
the
englysshe
hoost
/
that
if
they
had
the
better
in
the
bataile
/
and
that
if
sir
Charles
of
Bloyes
were
founde
in
the
place
that
none
shulde
take
hym
to
raunsome
/
but
to
slee
hym
.
And
in
semblable
wyse
the
frenchmen
had
ordayned
for
sir
John
Mountfort
/
if
they
had
atteyned
the
vyctorie
:
for
as
that
day
they
were
determyned
to
haue
an

So
whan

And

So

and
of

were
all

ayders
of
sir
Charles
of
Bloyes
right
sorowfull
and
sore
dyspleased

the
whiche
was
good

And
specially
the
frenche
kyng
for
this
disconfyture
touched
hym
gretly
/
bycause
that
dyuers
knightis
of
his

Than

sent
Loyes

And

that
it
was
pyte
to
beholde
her
/
the
whiche
the
duke
of
Aniou
was
bounde
to
do
:
for
he
had
maried
her

.
So
he
promysed
with
faythfull
entent
/
to

vnto
all
the
good

in
Bretayne
/

confort

and
ayde
in
all
cases
.
Wherby
the
good
lady
whome
he
called

and
all
the

had
a

gret
trust

Also

by
the
same
haraulde
and
dyuers
other
.
And
the
cause
why
the
kynge
of
Englande
was
as
than
at
Douer
/
I
shal
shewe
you
here
after
.
IT
was
of
trouthe
that
ther
was
a
treaty
thre
yere
before
/
bytwene
the
lord
Edmonde
erle
of
Cambrige
one
of
the
kynges
sonnes
/
and
the
doughter
of
th
erle
Loys
of
Flaunders
:
to
the
which
maryage
th
erle
of
Flaunders
was
as
than
newly
agreed
vnto
/
so
that
pope
Urban
the
fyft
wolde
dispence
with
them
/
for
they
were
nere
of
lynage
.
And
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
lorde
Edmonde
his
brother
/
with
many
knightes
and
squyers
had
ben
in
Flaunders
with
the
erle
:
and
were
receyued
right
honorably
in
signe
of
great
peace
and
loue
.
And
so
the
erle
of
Flaunders
was
come
to
Calais
and
passed
the
see
and
came
to
Douer
/
where
the
kyng
and
parte
of
his
counsell
were
redy
to
receyue
hym
/
and
so
they
were
ther.
Whan
the
forsayd
purseuant
came
to
the
kyng
and
brought
hym
tidynges
of
the
batayle
of
Alroy
/
of
the
whiche
the
kyng
and
all
that
were
ther
were
right
ioyouse
:
and
in
lykewise
so
was
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
for
the
loue
and
honour
and
auauncement
of
his
cosyn
germayne
/
the
erle
of
Mountfort
.
Thus
the
kyng
of
England
and
th
erle
of
flaunders
were
at
Douer
the
space
of
thre
dayes
in
feestes
and
great
sportes
/
and
whan
they
had
well
sported
them
and
done
that
they
assembled
for
.
Than
the
erle
of
Flaunders
toke
leaue
of
the
kyng
and
departed
/
and
as
I
vnderstande
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
lorde
Edmonde
passed
the
see
agayne
with
hym
and
helde
him
company
tyll
he
came
to
Bruges
.
¶
Nowe
let
vs
speke

th
erle
Mountfort
how
he
dyd

And

wherfore
they
were

And

Than

And

Than

Cap.

IN
the

seasone
that

lay
at
siege
before
Campecorentyne
/
and
that
it
was
sore
beten
and
oppressed
by
his

and

.
His

ran
ouer
the
countre
and
left
nothyng
vntaken
:
without
it
were
to
hote
/
to
colde
/
or
to

Of
these
aduentures
the
frenche
kynge
was
well
enformed
/
and
had
theron
dyuers
counsayls

purposes
/

:
howe

Wherin

in
no

/
for
by
great
delyberacion
of

it
was

.
Sir

And

And

Wherfore
ye

Therfore
sir
we
thynke
all

consydred
and
ymagined
/
that
it
were
good
for

to

to

bytwene

and
th

to
knowe
howe

and
agree
to
any

bytwene

and
the

/
&
the
lady
who
calleth
herselfe
duchesse
.
And
sir
as
your
messangers
feleth
hym
dysposed
in
this
mater
/
than
acordyng
therto
ye
may
take
further
aduyse
:
at
the
vttermost
it
were
better
that

so
that
he
wyll
holde

and
do
to

all
rightꝭ
that

ought
to

/
rather
than
the

be
in
great
parell
of
lesyng
of
all
:
to
the
whiche
wordes
the
kynge
gladly
enclyned
vnto
.
Than
it
was
ordayned
that
the
lorde
Johan
of
Craon
archbysshop
/
the
lorde
of
Craon
his
cosyn
/
and

to
treat
with
the
erle
Mountfort
&
with
his
counsell
/
on
the
state
of
peace
as
ye

herde
.
So
thus
these
thre
lordes
departed
well
instructed
of
that
they
shulde
do
/
and
so
longe
they
rode
tyll
they
came
to
the
sege
of
the
englysshmen
and
bretons
before
Campacorentyne
/
and
so
they
named
them
to
be
messangers
fro
the
frenche
kyng
.
Th
erle
of
Mountfort
/
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
and
they
of
his

receyued
them
right
ioyously
.
than
these
lordes
of
Fraunce
shewed
right
sagely
the
occasyon
of

and

And
at

answered
howe
he
wolde
take
counsell
and
aduyce
in
the
mater
/
and
gaue

.
And
in
the
meane
season
these
thre
lordis
went
and
lay

of
Reyns
.
Than
the
erle
Mountforte
sent

the

of
England

counsell
in
that
behalfe
.
And
the
kyng
of
Englande
whan
he
was
enfourmed
of

sayd
howe

yerely

out
of
some

myght

Than
the

and
so
after

And

He

and

And

and
to

This

than
they
toke

the

gyuen
full
power
and
auctoryte
to
conclude
this
treaty
/
or

And
whan
the
duke
of
Aniousaw
the
effect
of
this
mater
he
toke
counsell
a
longe
space
/
but
finally
he
was
counsayled
to

treaty
.
and
the
two
knightes
that
were
sent
to
him
retorued
agayne
with
his
answere
writen
and
sealed
.
And
than
these
lordes
of
Fraunce
departed
fro
Reyns
and
went
to
the
siege
before
Campacorentyne
:
and
ther
finally
the
peace
was
made
/
agreed
/
and
sealed
by
th
erle
Mountfort
/
and
he
abode
as
duke
of
Bretayne
condycionally
that
if
he
had
no
chyldren
of
his

laufully

and
the

shulde
be
countesse
of
Poynteure
/
the
whiche
lande
was
of
yerely
rent
about
.xx.
M.
frankes
.
And
also
the
lorde
Mountfort
shulde
come
in
to
Fraunce
whan
soeuer
the
kyng
sent
for
hym
to
do
his
homage
/
and
to
holde
the
duchy
of

of

And
for
the
confyrmacion
herof
:
there
were
charters

Thus
th
erle
of
Mountfort
entred
into
the

and
abode
as

therof
a
certayne
space
of

tyll
other

the

the

thus
the

so
with
the
frenche
kynge
that
he
dyde
what
he
wolde
/
and
without

So
thus
the
countte

was
right
ioyous
whan
they
sawe

rytie
of
Nauntes
right
nobly
.
Also
it
fortuned
the
same
wynter
that
queue
Jane
aunt
to
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
&
quene
Blanche
her
sustre
,
dyd
somoch
that
a
peace
was
made
bytwene
the
french
kyng
&
the
king
of
Nauer
by
the
ayde
&
wysoome
of
the
lorde
captall
of
Beufz
who
dyde
all
that
he
might
to
conclude
the
peace
and
therby
he
was
aquyted
out
of
prison
.
And
the
frenche
kyng
shewed
hym
in
dede
great
sygne
of
loue
/
and
gaue
hym
the
fayre
castell
of
De
nemoux
with
all
the
appurtenaunces
/
the
whiche
was
well
worthe
of
yerely
reuenewes
thre
thousande
frankes
/
and
so
the
Captall
became
liegeman
to
the
frenche
kyng
/
of
whose
homage
the
kyng
was
right
toyouse
.
for
he
loued
well
the
seruyce
of
suche
a
knyght
as
the
captall
was
in
his
tyme
.
But
the
seruyce
endured
no
longe
season
/
for
whan
he
came
into
the
principalyte
to
the
prince
/
who
was
enformed
of
the
case
as
it
stode
.
Greatly
he
blamed
hym
and
sayd
how
that
he
coude
nat
acquyte
hym selfe
trewely
to
serue
two
lordes
/
and
that
he
was
to
couetous
to
take
lande
in
Fraunce
/
wher
he
was
nother
be
loued
nor
honoured
.
And
whan
the
Captall
sawe
hymselfe
in
that
case
/
and
home
he
was
taken
and
reputed
by
the
prince
his
naturall
lorde
he
was
sore
a
shamed
and
excused
hymselfe
/
sayeng
sir
I
am
nat
so
sore
bounde
to
the
frenche
kyng
/
but
that
I
may
soone
for
do
agayne
all
that
I
haue
done
or
ꝓmysed
.
And
so
he
sent
a
seruaunt
of
his
to
the
kyng
and
renounced
al
that
the
kynge
had
gyuen
hym
and
he
taryed
styll
hym selfe
with
the
prince
/
for
he
was
aquyted
of
his
prison
by
the
composycion
of
the
peace
taken
bytwene
the
frenche
kyng
and
the
kyng
of
Nauer
.
And
the
frenche
kyng
had
by
composicyon
the
townes
of
Maunt
/
and
Meulecke
:
&
the
kyng
rendred
hym
therfore
other
castels
in
Normandy
.
In
this
season
departed
out
of
fraunce
the
lorde
Loys
of
Nauer
and
went
into
Lombar
dy
to
mary
the
quene
of
Naples
/
but
at
his
departyng
he
had
of
the
frenche
kynge
for
certayne
castels
that
he
delyuered
vp
in
Normandy
/
the
somme
of
threscore
thousande
frankes
.
And
the
same
lorde
Loys
after
he
had
wedded
the
quene
of
Naples
lyued
no
longe
tyme
/
god
forgyue
hym
all
his
fautes
/
for
he
was
a
right
good
knight
and
a
courtesse
.
IN
this
season
yet
was
ther
styll
in
Fraunce
great
nombre
of
the
companyons
/
the
whiche
as
than
wyst
nat
what
to

/
seyng
the

of
Bretayne
were
ended
.
These
companyons
pursued
euer
after
dedes
of
armes
and
takynge
of
pyllages
at
their
aduauntages
/
fro
the
whiche
they
coude
nat
nor
wolde
absteyne
/
and
all
their
chefe
recours
was
in
Fraunce
/
for
they
called
the
realme
of
Fraunce
their
chambre
.
They
durst
do
no
hurte
in
Acquitayne
for
the
lande
wold
nat
suffre
them
:
and
also
to
say
trouthe
moost
parte
of
the
capitayns
were
gascons
and
englysshmen
/
vnder
the
obeysaunce
of
the
kyng
of
Englande
and
of
the
prince
.
some
ther
were
of
Bretayne
but
nat
many
/
wherfore
dyuers
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
murmured
agaynst
the
kynge
of
Englande
and
the
prince
/
and
sayd
couertly
/
howe
that
they
aquyted
nat
themselfe
well
agaynst
the
frenche
kyng
.
seyng
they
do
nat
their
good
wylles
to
put
out
of
the
realme
those
yuell
disposed
people
.
So
the
wyse
and
sage
men
of
Fraunce
consydred
/
that
without
they
dyde
put
some
remedy
to
driue
theym
out
of
the
realme
/
eyther
by
batayle
or
by
meanes
of
some
money
.
Els
at
length
they
were
lykely
to
distroy
the
noble
realme
of
Fraunce
and
holy
christendome
.
¶
The
same
season
there
was
in
Hongry
a
kyng
that
wolde
gladly
haue
had
them
with
hym
/
for
he
had
great
warre
agaynst
the
turke
/
who
dyde
hym
great
domage
.
Than
he
wrote
to
pope
Urbane
the
.v.
who
was
as
than
at
Auignon
/
certifyeng
hym
how
he
wolde
gladly
that
the
realme
of
Fraunce
were
delyuered
of
the
nombre
of
companyons
and
that
they
were
all
with
hym
in
his
warres
agaynst
the
turke
.
And
in
lyke
wise
he
wrote
letters
to
the
frenche
kynge
and
to
the
prince
of
Wales
.
and
so
they
entreated
the
sayd
companyons
and
offred
them
golde
/
and
syluer
/
and
passage
:
but
they
answered
that
they
wolde
nat
that
waye
/
sayeng
they
wold
nat
go
so
ferr
to
make
warr
for
it
was
shewed
among
themselfe
by
some
of
their
owne
company
that
had
ben
before
in
Hongry
/
howe
that
ther
were
suche
straytes
that
yf
they
were
fought
with
there
they
coulde
neuer
escape
but
to
dye
shamefully
/
the
whiche
so
affrayed
them
that
they
had
no
lust
to
go
thyder
.
And
whan
the
pope
and
the
frenche
kyng
sawe
that
they
wolde
nat
agre
acordyng
to
their
desyers
/
and
also
that
they
wolde
nat
auoyde
out
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
but
dayly
multiplyed
.
Than
they
be
thought
theym
of
another
waye
and
meanes
to
cause
them
to
auoyde
.
THe
same
season
ther
was
a
kyng
in
Castell
called
Dame
Peter
/
who
was
full
of
marueylous
opinyons
/
and
he
was
rude
and
rebell
agaynst
the
commaundementis
of
holy
churche
.
And
in
mynde
to
subdue
all
his
cristen
neyghbours
kinges
and
princes
/
and
specially
the
king
of
Aragon
called
Peter
/
who
was
a
gode
true
cristen
prince
/
&
had
as
than
taken
fro
him
parte
of
his
realme
/
thynking
to
haue
all
the
remenant
.
Also
this
kynge
Dampeter
of
Castell
had
thre
basterd
bretherne
/
the
whiche
kyng
Allphons
his
fader
had
by
a
lady
called
the
Ryche
Drue
.
Theldest
was
called
Henry
/
the
seconde
Dancylle
/
and
the
thyrde
Sauses
.
This
king
Dampeter
hated
them
so
that
he
wolde
nat
suffre
them
to
come
in
his
syght
/
and
often
tymes
if
he
might
haue
gotten
them
he
wolde
haue
stryken
of
their
heedes
.
Ho
wbeit
they
were
welbeloued
with
the
kynge
their
father
/
&
in
his
lyfe
he
gaue
to
Henry
theldest
the
countie
Desconges
.
But
this
kyng
Dampeter
his
brother
had
taken
it
fro
hym
/
and
therfore
they
kepte
dayly
warre
toguyder
.
This
bastarde
Henry
was
a
right
hardy
and
a
valyant
knight
/
and
had
ben
long
in
Fraunce
and
pursued
the
warre
there
/
and
serued
the
frenche
kynge
who
loued
hym
right
entierly
.
Kyng
Dampeter
as
the
comon
brute
ranne
/
had
put
to
dethe
the
mother
of
the
chyldren
:
wherwith
they
were
right
sore
displesed
and
good
cause
why
.
Also
besyde
that
he
had
put
to
dethe
and
exyled
dyuers
great
lordes
of
the
realme
of
Castell
/
he
was
so
cruell
&
so
without
shame
/
that
all
his
menfeared
/
douted
/
and
hated
hym
as
ferr
as
they
durst
▪
also
he
caused
to
dye
a
right
good
and
a
holy
lady
/
the
which
he
had
to
wyfe
called
the
lady
Blanche
/
doughter
to
duke
Peter
of
Burbone
/
suster
germayn
to
the
frenche
quene
and
to
the
countesse
of
Sauoy
/
whose
dethe
was
ryght
displesaunt
to
all
her
lynage
/
the
whiche
was
one
of
the
noblest
lynages
of
the
worlde
.
And
besyde
all
this
ther
ran
a
brute
of
hym
among
his
owne
men
howe
that
he
was
amyably
alyed
with
the
kynge
of
Granade
/
and
with
the
kyng
of
Tresbell
Maryne
/
and
the
kyng
of
Tresmesaries
/
who
wer
all
goddes
ennemyes
and
infydeles
.
Wherefore
some
of
his
owne
men
feared
that
he
wolde
do
some
hurt
to
his
owne
countre
as
in
violatyng
of
goddes
churches
/
for
he
began
all
redy
to
take
fro
theym
their
rentes
and
reuenewes
/
and
helde
some
of
the
prelates
in
prison
and
constreyned
them
by
tyranny
wherof
great
complayntes
came
dayly
to
our
holy
father
the
pope
/
requyring
him
to
fynde
some
remedy
.
To
whose
complayntes
the
pope
condyscended
and
sende
incontynent
messangers
into
Castell
to
the
kynge
Dampeter
/
commaundyng
hym
that
incontynent
without
any
delay
personally
to
come
to
the
court
of
Rome
:
to
wass
he
/
clens
/
&
purge
hym
of
suche
vyllayne
dedes
as
he
was
gyltye
in
.
Ho
wbeit
this
kyng
Dampeter
full
of
pride
and
presumtuousnesse
wolde
nat
obey
nor
come
ther
but
delt
shamefully
with
the
popes
messangers
/
wherby
he
ran
greatly
in
the
indignacyon
of
the
churche
/
and
specially
of
the
heed
of
the
church
as
of
our
holy
father
the
pope
.
Thus
this
yuell
kyng
Dampeter
perseuered
styll
in
his
obstynatesynne
.
Than
aduyse
and
counsell
was
taken
by
the
pope
and
by
the
coledge
what
waye
they
might
correct
hym
:
and
ther
it
was
determyned
that
he
was
nat
worthy
to
bere
the
name
of
a
kynge
/
nor
to
holde
any
realme
.
And
therein
playne
consistory
in
Auygnon
/
in
the
chambre
of
excommunycacion
he
was
openly
declared
to
be
reputed
as
in
infidell
.
Than
it
was
thought
that
he
shulde
be
constrayned
and
corrected
by
helpe
of
the
companyons
/
that
were
as
than
in
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
Than
the
kyng
of
Aragon
who
hated
the
king
of
Castell
was
sent
for
and
also
Henry
the
bastarde
of
Spayne
/
to
come
to
Auygnon
to
the
pope
.
And
whan
they
were
come
/
the
pope
made
Henry
the
bastarde
legytyue
and
laufull
to
obtayne
the
realme
of
Castell
/
and
Dampeter
cursed
and
condemned
by
sentence
of
the
pope
.
And
ther
the
kyng
of
Aragon
sayd
howe
he
wolde
open
the
passage
thorough
his
countre
/
and
prouyde
vitayls
&
purueyaunces
for
all
maner
of
people
and
men
of
warre
/
that
wolde
pursue
to
go
into
Castell
to
confounde
kyng
Dampeter
/
and
to
put
him
out
of
his
realme
.
Of
this
ordynaunce
was
the
frenche
kynge
right
ioyous
/
and
dyde
his
payne
to
helpe
to
get
out
of
prison
sir
Bettram
of
Clesquy
/
who
was
prisoner
with
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
and
payed
for
his
raunsome
a
hundred
.
M.
frankes
:
parte
therof
payed
the
frenche
kynge
and
the
pope
/
and
Henry
the
bastard
payed
the
resydu
.
And
after
his
delyueraunce
they
fell
in
treaty
with
the
companyons
/
and
promysed
them
great
profyte
yf
they
wolde
go
into
the
realme
o●
Castell
.
Wherto
they
lightly
agreed
for
a
certayne
somme
of
money
that
they
had
to
depart
among
them
.
And
so
this
iourney
was
shewed
to
the
prince
of
Wales
and
to
the
knightes
and
squyers
about
hym
:
and
specially

Chandos
/
who
was
desyredde
to

.
Howbeit
he
excused

&
sayd

And

And

they
coulde
.
So
they
all
passed
through
the
realme
of
Aragon
where
they
founde
the
passages
redy
open
for
them
and
vitayle
/
and
euery
thyng
redy

and
at
a

For
the

by

to
conquers
agayne
fro
the
kyng
of
Castell
all

landes
/
that
kyng
Dampeter
had

him
byforce
.
And
than
these
men
of
warr
passed
the
gret
ryuer
that
departeth
Castell
and
Aragon
and
so
they
entred
into
the
realme
of

.
And
whan
they
had
conquered
townes

and

streytes
/

/
and

/
the
whiche
the
kynge
Dampeter
had
taken

Than
sir

his

delyuered
them
to
the
kyng
of

on
the
condycion
that
alwayes
fro
thens

he
shulde
ayde

conforte
Henry
the

agaynst
Dampeter
.
Tidynges
came
to
the

how
that
the

And
howe
they
had
wonne

all
on
that
syde
the

the
whiche
cost
〈◊〉
moche
payne
and
trouble
or
he
wan
it
first
Than
he
was
right
sore
dysplesed
&
sayd
/
well
all
shall
nat
go
so
as
they
wene
it
shall
:
than
he
made
a
specyall
commaundement
throughout
all
his
realme
/
in
gyueng
knowledge
to
them
that
his
letters
and
messangers
were
sent
vnto
/
that
they
shulde
without
delay
come
to
hym
/
to
the
entent
to
fight
with
the
men
of

that
were
entred
into
his
realm
of
Castell
/
ther
were
but
a
fewe
that
obeyed
his
commaundement
.
And
whan
he
had
thought
to
haue
had
a
great
assemble
of
men
of
warr
he
was
disceyued
/
for
fewe
or
none
came
to

:
for
his
lordes
&
knightes
of
Spayne
forsoke
and
refused

and
tourned

Wherfore
he
was
fayne
to

or

taken
he
was
so
sore
behated
with
his

so
that

excepte
one
true

called
Ferrant
of

,
he
wolde
neuer
forsake

And
so
than
Dampeter
went
to
Syuyle
the
best

of

/
and
whanne
he
was
come
thyder
he
was
in

wherfore
he
trussed

put

.
And
so
departed

and
he
arryued
lyke

And
of

¶

Cap.
C

THus
as
I
haue
shewed
before
/
this
kynge
Dampeter
was
soore
behated
with
his
owne
men
/
throughout
all
the
realme
of
Castell
:
bycause
of
the
marueylous
cruell
iustyce
that
he
had
done
/
&
by
the
occasyon
of
the
distruccyon
of
the
noblemen
of
his
realme
/
the
whiche
he
had
put
to
deth
and
slayne
with
his
handes
.
Wherfore
assoone
as
they
sawe
his
bastard
brother
entre
into
the
realme
with
so
great
puyssaunce
/
than
they
drue
all
to
hym
and
receyued
him
to
their
lorde
:
and
so
rode
forthe
with
him
.
and
they
caused
cyte●s
townes
/
borowes
/
and
castels
to
be
opyned
to
hym
/
and
euery
man
to
do
hym
homage
.
And
so
the
spanyardis
all
with
one
voyce
cryed
/
lyue
Henry
/
and
dye
Dampeter
:
who
hath
been
to
vs
so
cruell
and
so
yuell
.
This
the
lordes
ledde
forthe
Henry
throughout
all
the
realme
of
Castell
/
as
the
lorde
Gommegaulx
/
the
great
mayster
of
Gallestrane
/
and
the
maister
of
saynt
James
.
So
thus
all
maner
of
peple
obeyd
to
him
and
crowned
hym
kyng
in
the
cytie
of
Estyrages
/
and
all

/
&
knightes
made

and
sware
alwayes
to
maynteyne
him
as
their
kynge
/
or
els
if
nede
requyred
to

So
thus
this
kyng
rode
fro
cytie
to
cytie
/
and
fro
towne
to
towne
:
and
alwayes
and
in
euery
place
he
had
reuerence
done
to
hym
lyke
a

.
And
thanne
he
gaue

the
knightes
straungers
/
suche
as
came
with
hym
into
the
realme
of
Castell
great
gyftes
and
riche
iewels
/
so
largely
that
euery
man
reputed
him
for

.
And
comonly
the

all
lyberalite
/
and
howe
he
was
well
worthy

/
and
to

ouer
a
great
realme
:
and
so
he
dyde
a
season
right
puyssantly
and
in
great
prosperyte
.
Thus
the

of
Spayne
came
to
the

/
&
he
made

two
bretherne
Dancyle
/
and
Sances
/
eche

an

with
great

and

.
Thus
this
Henry
was
kyng
of
Castell
/
of
Galyce
/
of
Cyuyll
/
of
Tollette
/
and
of
Lyssebone

WHan

and

/
and
sawe
nothynge
lykely
to

Than

And

And

So

of

that

and
that
all

He

for

but
the
wynde
was

The

right
pyteous

and
a

This

pleased
right

than
he
desyred
to
go
to
Colongne
in
that
viage
to
bring

First

/
sir
Neez
Lornyche

/
and
in

army
ther
shulde
be

shyppes
furnisshed

So
these
knightis
made
their

to
go
into
Galice
/
and
than
the
messangers
depted
fro
Burdeux
and

/
and
ther
taried
a
thre
or
four
dayes
abyding

.
and
the
.v.
day
as
they
were
de●tynge
/
the
kyng
Dampeter
of
castell
aryued
at
Bayon
himselfe
/
for
he
was
departed
fro
Colongue
in
great
hast
&
dout
/
for
he
durst
nat
abyde
ther
any
le●ger
/
and
brought
but
a
fewe
of
his
men
With
him
/
and
suche

So
the
tidynges
of
his

was
great
ioye
to
thëglysshmen
than
sir
Thomas
Phelton
and
his
company
came

and
receyued

/
&
shewed

to

&
to

.
Of
the
whiche
tidyngis
the
kyng
Dampeter
was
ryght
ioyouse
/
&
thanked
gretly
the
prince
and
the
knightes
that
were

.
¶
The
comyng
of
the
king
Dampeter
thus
to
Bayon
/
sir
Thomas
Phelton
and
the
other
knightes
certifyed
the
price
therof
/
of
the
which
he
was
right
ioyouse
.
&
within
a
short
space
after
/
these
knightes
brought
the
kyng
Dampeter
to
the
cyte
of
Burdeux
.
And
the
prince
who
gretly
desyred
to
se
his
cosyn
the
kynge
Dampeter
/
and
to
do
hym
the
more
honoure
&
feest
/
yssued
out
of
Burdeux
acompanyed
with
dyuers
knightis
and
squiers
/
and
went
&
mette
the
kyng
and
dyd
to
hym
great
reuerence
bothe
in
worde
&
dede
/
the
whiche
he
coude
do
right
well
/
for
ther
was
no
prince
in
his
tyme
the
coulde
shewe
more
honour
than
he
.
And
whan
the
prince
had
well
feasted
him
/
than
they
rode
to
Burdeux
/
&
the
prince
toke
the
kyng
aboue
him
/
in
no
wyse
he
wolde
do
otherwise
.
And
as
they
rode
togyder
the
kyng
Dampeter
shewed
to
the
prince
how
his
bastard
brother
had
chased
him
out
of
his
realme
of
castell
/
and
also
he
pituously
complayned
hym
of
the
vntrouthe
of
his
men
/
shewyng
howe
they
had
all
forsaken
him
/
except
one
knyght
the
whiche
was
ther
with
hym
called
Damferrant
of
Castres
.
The
price
right
curtesly
&
sagely
recomforted
him
/
desyring
him
nat
to
be
abasshed
nor
disconforted
/
for
though
he
had
as
than
lost
all
/
he
trusted
it
shulde
be
in
the
puyssance
of
god
to
restore
hym
agayne
all
his
losse
/
and
moreouer
to
take
vengeaunce
of
all
his
eneymes
.
Thus
as
they
talked
togyder
/
they
rode
so
longe
the
they
came
to
Burdeux
/
and
a lyghted
at
they
abbey
of
saynt
Andrues
/
wher
as

kept
their

/
&
than
the

to
a

chambre
redy
aparelled
for

.
and
whan
he
was
changed
he
went
to
the
princesse
&
to
the
ladyes
/
who
receyued
him
right
curtesly
as
they
coude
right
well
do
.
I
might
ouer
longe
make
reporte
to

of
this
mater
/
what
of
their

And
shall
shewe

how
kyng
Dāpetersped

condyscended
to
his
desyers
:
howbeit
ther
were
some

sayd
vnto
hym
/
as

¶
Or

and
had
euer
truly
serued
hym
&
gyuen

counsayle
/
and
so
thought
euer

do
.
They
sayd
to
the
prince
:
Sir

Ther

that
dare
displease

and

by

to
be
content
with
that
ye
haue
/
and
seke

.
Sir
we
say
nat
this
for
non
yuell
we
knowell
the
kynge
Dampeter
of
Castell
who
is
now
driuen
out
of
his
realme
/
is
a
man
of
hye
mynde
/
right
cruell
&
full
of
yuell
condycions
:
for
by
hym
hath
ben
done
many
yuell
dedes
in
the
realme
of
Castell
/
and
hath
caused
many
a
valyant
man
to
lose
his
heed
:
and
brought
cruelly
to
an
ende
without
any
maner
of
reason
.
&
so
by
his
vilayne
dedes
and
consent
he
is
now
disceyued
&
put
out
of
his
realm
/
and
also
besyde
all
this
he
is
enemy
to
the
churche
/
&
cursed
by
our
holy
father
the
pope
:
he
is
reputed
and
hath
ben
a
great
season
like
a
tyrant
/
and
without
tytell
of
reason
hath
alwayes
greued
and
made
warr
with
his
neybours
/
the
kyng
of
Aragon
and
the
king
of
Nauer
/
and
wolde
haue
dishetyted
them
by
puissance
.
And
also
as
the
brute
ronneth
throughout
his
realme
/
&
by
his
owne
men
howe
he
caused
to
dye
his
wyfe
your
cosyn
doughter
to
the
duke
of
Burbone
.
Wherfore
sir
ye
ought
to
thynke
and
consydre
that
all
this
that
he
nowe
suffereth
/
ar
roddes
&
strokes
of
god
sent
to
chastyce
him
:
and
to
gyue
ensample
to
all
other
christen
kingis
and
princes
to
beware
that
they
do
nat
as
he
hath
done
.
With
suche
wordis
or
semblable
the
prince
was
counselled
or
kyng
dampeter
arryued
at
Bayon
:
but
to
these
wordis
the
prince
answered
thus
.
Sayeng
lordis
I
thynke
and
byleue
certenly
that
ye
counsell
me
truely
to
the
best
of
your
powers
I
knowe
well
and
am
well
enfourmed
of
the
lyfe
&
state
of
this
kyng
Dampeter
/
and
knowe
well
that
without
nombre
he
hath
done
many
yuell
dedes
:
wherby
nowe
he
is
disceyued
.
But
the
cause
present
that
moueth
&
gyueth
vs
corage
to
be
willyng
to
ayde
him
is
as
I
shall
shewe
you
.
It
is
nat
couenable
that
a
bastard
shulde
hold
a
realme
in
herytage
and
put
out
of
his
owne
realme
his
brother
ryghtfull
enheryter
to
the
lande
/
the
whiche
thyng
all
kynges
&
kingis
sonnes
shulde
in
no
wyse
suffre
nor
consent
to
/
for
it
is
a
great
preiudice
agaynst
the
state
royall
.
&
also
besyde
that
the
kyng
my
father
and
this
kyng
Dampeter
hath
a
gret
season
ben
alyed
togyder
by
great
confederacions
/
wherfore
we
are
bounde
to
ayde
him
/
in
cause
that
he
requyre
&
desyre
vs
so
to
do
.
Thus
the
prince
was
moued
in
his
corage
to
ayde
&
confort
this
kyng
Dampeter
in
his
trouble
&
besynes
.
Thus
he
answered
to
his
counsell
and
they
coude
nat
remoue
him
cut
of
that
purpose
/
for
his
mynde
was
euer
more
&
more
fermely
set
on
that
mater
.
And
whan
king
Dampeter
of
Castell
was
come
to
the
prince
to
the
cyte
of
Burdeux
/
he
humyled
hym selfe
right
swetely
to
the
prince
&
offred
to
him
great
giftes
and
profyte
/
in
sayeng
that
he
wolde
make
Edwarde
his
eldest
sonne
kynge
of
Galyce
/
and
that
he
wolde
departe
to
hym
&
to
his
men
great
good
&
richesse
/
the
which
he
had
left
behynde
hym
in
the
realme
of
Castell
/
bycause
he
durst
nat
bring
it
with
hym
:
but
this
ryches
was
in
so
sure
kepynge
that
none
knewe
where
it
was
but
himselfe
to
the
which
wordes
the
knightes
gaue
good
entent
/
for
englysshmen
&
gascons
naturally
are
couetouse
.
Than
the
prince
was
counselled
to
assemble
all
the
barons
of
the
duchy
of
acquitayne
&
his
specyall
counsell
/
and
so
ther
was
at
Burdeux
a
great
counsayle
.
And
there
the
kyng
Dampeter
shewed
openly
how
he
wold
meyntayne
hym selfe
/
&
howe
he
wolde
satisfy
euery
man
/
yf
the
prince
wolde
take
on
hym
to
bring
hym
agayne
into
his
countre
.
Than
ther
were
letters
writen
&
messangers
sent
forthe
/
&
lordes
and
knyghtis
sent
for
all
about
/
as

/

/
the

/

the
lorde
of
Pyncornet
/
and
all
the
other

and

of

/
and
of
Uerne
.
And
also
th
erle
of
Foix
was
desyred
to
come
thyder
/
but
he
wolde
nat
:
but
excused
hym selfe
by
cause
he
had
a
dysease
in
his
legge
and
might
nat
ryde
/
but
he
sent
thyder

.
TO
this
parlyament
thus
holden
in
the
cyte
of
Burdeux
came
all
the
erles
/
vycountes
/
barons
/

/

/

And
whan
they

/
they
went

for

of

who
was
alwayes

in
the
counsayle
with
the
prince
his
cosyn
/
reasonyng
alwayes
to
fortify
his
quarell
&
besynesse
.
Finally
the
prince
was
counselled
that
he
shulde
send
suffycient
messangers
to
the
kyng
his
father
into
England
to
knowe
his

shulde

.
And
his

and
answere
ones
knowen

than
all

lordis
sayd
they
wolde
take

togyder
/
&
so
make

that

Than
ther
were
chosen
and
named

of
the

that
shulde
go

Englande
to
the
kyng
/
that

And

Than

Sir
qd
the
kyng
Dampeter
ye
do
me
great
curtesy
and
grace
/
and
in
this
counsayle
there
were
dyuers
sage
men
:
as
th
erle
of
Armynake
/
the
lorde
of
Pomyers
/
sir
John
Chandos
/
the
Captall
of
Beufz
and
dyuers
other
/
who
consydred
that
the
prince
coudenat
well
make
this
vyage
without
the
acorde
&
consent
of
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
for
they
coude
nat
entre
into

but
through

&
thorowe
the
straytꝭ
of
Rayncenalt
/
the

passage
they
were

in
surety
to
haue
/
bycause
the
king
of
Nauer
&
Henry
the
bastard
had
newly
made
alyaunce
togyder
.
So
thus
ther
was
moche
comunynge
howe
they
might
do
to
achyue
their
purpose
:
than
was
it
determyned
that

embassadours
to
the
kynge
of
Nauer
/
desyring
hym
to
be

that
counsayle
in
Bayon
.
And
so
on
this
determynacion
euery
man
departed
fully
concluded
to
be
at
Bayon
the
day
lymyted
and
prefixed
.
In
the
meane
season
the

sent
sir
Johan
Chandos
and
sir
Thomas
Phelton
to
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
/
who

.
These
two
sage
and
well

knightes
dyde
so
moche
that
they
came

Nauer
/
who

/
and
theron
the

THe

And

the
prince
and
kyng
Dampeter
dyde
hym
great
honour
/
bycause
they
thought
the
better
to
spede

hym
.
So
thus
in
the
cytie
of
Bayon
ther
was
a
great
counsell
/
the
whiche
endured
.v.
dayes
and
the
prince
and
his
counsayle
had
moche
to
do
/
or
they
coude
bringe
the
kynge
of
Nauerr
to
their
desyre
/
for
he
was
a
man
nat
easy
to

woune
if
he
sawe
that

How
be

the

:
that
finally
he
sware
/
promysed
/
and
sealed

kyng
Dampeter
:
peace
/
loue
and
ferme
alyaunce
and
confederacion
.
And
in
lyke
maner
kyng
Dampeter
dyde
to
hym
/
vpon
certayne
cōposicyons
that
were

ordeyned
Of

Of
the
whiche
some

.
And
whan

confermed
/
than
they
desyred

And
the
price
who
had
great
affection
to

/
became
dettour
to
them
for
their

.
and
the
king
Dampeter
became
dettour
to
the
prince
.
And
whan
all
these
thynges
were
ordayned
and
fully
confermed
/
and
that
euery
man
knewe
what
he
ought

do
and
what
he
shulde

and
that
they
had
soiourned
ther
the

of

.
Than
the
kynge

departed
home
into

¶
Howe
that
kyng
Henry
alyed
him
to
the
kyng
of
Aragon
/
and
of
the
men
that
the

sent
for
/
and
howe
the
prince
was
counsayled

Cap.
CC
.xxxii.
Whan
the
tydyngis
was
spred
abrode
in
Spayne
/
in
Aragon
/
&
in
Fraunce
that
the
prince
of
Wales
wolde
bring
agayne
kyng
dan
peter
in
to
the
realme
of
Castell
.
Ther
were
many
had
therof
great
marueyle
/
and
moche
comunyng
was
therof
.
Some
said
that
the
prince
toke
on
hym
the
enterprice
for
pride
and
presumpcyon
/
and
was
in
a
maner
angry
of
the
honour
the
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
had
gotten
him
/
in
conqueryng
of
the
realme
of
Castell
/
in
the
name
of
kyng
Henry
who
was
by
him
made
kyng
.
Some
other
sayd
the
pyte
and
reason
moued
the
prince
to
be
in
wyll
to
ayde
the
king
Dampeter
.
and
to
bring
hym
agayne
into
his
herytage
:
for
it
is
nat
a
thyng
due
nor
resonable
for
a
bastarde
to
kepe
a
realme
/
nor
to
haue
the
name
of
a
king
.
Thus
in
dyuers
placis
ther
were
dyuers
knightes
and
squyers
of
sondrie
opynions
/
howbeit
incontynent
kynge
Henry
wrote
letters
to
the
kyng
of
Aragon
and
sende
to
hym
great
messangers
/
desyringe
hym
that
he
shulde
in
no
wyse
acorde
nor
make
no
composicion
with
the
price
/
nor
with
none
of
his
alyes
:
promysing
him
euer
to
be
his
good
neighbour
and
frende
.
Than
the
kyng
of
Aragon
who
loued
hym
entierly
/
and
also
often
tymes
he
had
founde
kynge
Dampeter
ryght
fell
and
cruell
/
said
and
made
a
full
assuraunce
that
for
to
lese
a
great
parte
of
his
realme
/
he
wolde
make
no
maner
of
agrement
with
the
prince
/
nor
accorde
with
kyng
Dampeter
.
Promysinge
also
to
open
his
countrey
/
and
to
suffre
to
passe
through
all
maner
of
men
of
warr
suche
as
wolde
go
in
to
Spayne
/
or
into
any
other
place
to
his
confort
and
ayde
/
and
to
lette
theym
to
his
power
that
wolde
greue
or
trouble
hym
.
This
kyng
of
Aragon
kept
well
&
truely
his
ꝓmyse
that
he
made
to
this
kyng
Henry
/
for
assone
as
he
knewe
the
trouthe
that
kyng
Dampeter
was
ayded
by
the
prince
/
and
that
the
companyons
were
drawyng
to
that
partie
.
Incontynent
he
closed
all
the
passages
in
Aragon
and
straitly
kept
them
/
he
set
men
of
warre
on
the
mountayns
to
watche
the
passages
and
straytes
of
Catholon
/
so
that
none
coude
passe
but
in
great
parell
.
Howbeit
the
companyons
founde
another
way
/
but
they
suffred
moche
yuell
and
great
traueyle
or
they
coulde
passe
and
escape
the
dangers
of
Aragon
/
howbeit
they
came
to
the
marchesse
of
the
countie
of
Foyz
/
and
founde
the
countre
closed
agaynst
them
:
for
th
erle
wolde
in
no
wyse
that
suche
peple
shulde
entre
into
his
countre
.
These
tidynges
came
to
the
prince
to
Burdeux
who
thoght
and
ymagined
nyght
and
day
howe
with
his
honour
he
might
furnysshe
that
vyage
/
and
to
fynde
the
meanes
howe
the
sayd
companyons
might
come
into
Acquitayne
/
for
he
herde
how
the
passages
of
Aragon
were
closed
/
and
howe
they
were
at
the
entre
of
the
countie
of
Foyz
/
in
great
payne
and
dysease
.
So
the
prince
dowted
that
this
kyng
Henry
and
the
kyng
of
Aragon
wolde
so
deale
with
these
companyons
/
who
were
in
nombre
a
.xii.
thousande
/
that
other
for
feare
or
for
gyftes
cause
than
to
take
their
part
a
gaynst
hym
.
Thasie
the
prince
determyned
to
sende
to
them
sir
John
Chandos
to
treat
with
them
and
to
retayne
them
and
do
hym
seruyce
/
and
also
to
the
erle
of
Foyz
/
desyringe
hym
for
loue

The

before
Montaubon
/
so
that
these

Than

Sayeng
howe

shulde

who

And
whan
the
companyons
sawe
surely
howe
it
behoued
theym
to
fight
/
or
els
to
dye

with
shame
.
Than
they
alyghted
of
their
horses
and
raunged
them selfe
afore
to
abyde
for
their
enemyes
/
who
were
fyersly
comynge
towarde
them
:
and
in
lykewise
they
a
lyghted
and
came

fote
.
Ther
they
began
to
shote
&
to
chase
eche
other
/
and
to
gyue
great
strokes
/
so
that
there
were
many
beaten
downe

parties
.
Ther
was
a
sore

batayle
/
well

many
a

layed
a
long
on
the
erthe
/
how beit
the
frenchemen
were

Wherfore
at
the
beginnynge
they
dyde
driue
the
companyons
backe
into
the
barrers
of
the
towne
:
at
whiche
entryng
ther
was
many
a

And
the
companyons
had
ben
in
a

case
&
the

for

straytly
that
euery
man
to
his
power
shulde
ayde
and
helpe
the
companyons
/
who
were
retayned
with

.
Than
they
of
the
towne
armed
them
and
put
them
in
array
/
and
entred
into
the
skirmysshe
:
the
women
of
the
towne
entred
into
the
houses
/
and
went
vp
into
the
batylmentes
and
solers
/
and
cast
downe
on

stones
and
hote
chalke

so
thycke
that
they
had
nioche

And
dyuers
of
them
were
so
sore
hurte
that
they
were
fayne
to
recule
backe
/
wherby
the
companyons
toke
courage
/
who
were
afore
in
great
parell
.
Than
they
inuaded
the
frenchmen
fresshly
agayne
/
at
wiche
tyme
ther
were
suche
feates
of

done
/
prisoners
taken
and
rescued
agayn
/
that
lyke
case
had
nat
bensene
longe

The
companyons
were
but
a
fewe
in
regarde
to
the
frenchmen
/
howbeit
euery
man
dyde
his
payne
to
do
the
best
he
coude
:
and
so
biforce
of

they
droue
out

And
it
fortuned
that
in
the

whyle
this

was
thus
foughten
/
that
another

of
the

C.
they
entred
on
the
backesyde
into
the
towne
of
Montaubon
.
They
had
ryden
all
night
in
gret
hast
to
come
to
that
batayle
/
for
they
had
knowlege
howe
the
frenchmen
had
besieged
their
companyons
of
Montaubon
.
Than
they
entred
into
the
fray
/
so
that
the
frenchmen
were
sore
assayled
/
by
reason
of
the
comyng
of
those
newe
fressh
people
.
This
batayle
endured
fro

of

tyll
it
was
past
hye

/
but
finally
the
frenchmen
were

AFter
the
dysconfyture
and
takyng
of
the
sayd
prisoners
/
the
said
Perducas
balbreth
/
sir
Robert
Cem
/
ser
Rohan
Comes
/
the
Bourge
of
Bertuell
/
Nandon
of
Bergerant
and
their
company
parted
their
boty
and
all
their
wynning
/
wher
of
they
had
great
plenty
.
And
all
suche
as
had
any
prisoners
kept
them
styll
to
their
owne
profyte
other
to
raunsome
or
to
quyt
them
at
their
pleasure
.
And
they
raunsomed
their
prisoners
right
curtesly
euery
man
after
his
degre
.
The
more
courtesly
bycause
this
aduenture
came
to
themso
fortunatly
by
valyantnesse
of
dedes
of
armes
.
and
sucheas
were
let
go
on
their
faythe
and
promyse
had
dayes
lymitted
to
them
to
bringe
their
raunsoms
to
Burdeur
/
or
to
other
places
where
as
they
were
apoynted
.
So
the
prisoners
departed
and
went
home
in
to
their
owne
countrees
/
and
these
companyons
went
to
the
prince
/
who
receyued
them
right
ioyously
/
and
sent
them
to
loge
and
to
abyde
in
the
marchesse
of
Basell
among
the
mountayns
.
¶
I
shall
shewe
you
what
befell
of
this
mater
/
and
of
the
erle
of
Narbon
/
the
seneshall
of
Tholous
and
other
/
who
were
put
to
raunsome
/
and
had
promysed
on
their
faythes
to
pay
it
.
In
the
same
season
ther
/
was
at
Rome
pope
Urban
the
fyfte
/
who
entierly
hated
these
maner
of
people
of
companyous
and
had
long
tyme
before
cursed
them
/
bycause
of
the
vilayne
dedes
that
they
had
done
:
so
that
whanne
he
was
enfourmed
of
this
sayd
iourney
.
And
howe
that
th
erle
of
Narbone
and
other
were
ouerthrowen
he
was
sore
displeased
therwith
/
and
suffred
tyll
he
herde
howe
they
were
put
to
their
raunsome
/
and
come
home
into
their
owne
countrees
/
&
out
of
their
enemyes
handes
.
Than
he
sent
to
eche
of
them
and
by
expresse
wordes
defended
theym
in
any
wyse
to
pay
any
raunsome
/
and
assoyled
them
of
their
promyse
.
Thus
these
lordes
and
knightes
were
quyted
of
their
raunsome
/
suche
as
had
ben
taken
at
Mountaubon
/
for
they
durst
nat
trepase
the
popes
commaundement
/
the
which
happed
well
for
these
lordes
/
knightes
/
&
squyers
:
but
it
fortuned
yuell
for
the
companyons
/
who
abode
and
loked
euer
for
their
money
/
trusting
to
haue
had
it
to
arayed
and
aparelled
them
lyke
men
of
warr
.
And
so
they
made
great
prepara●yon
on
trust
therof
/
wherof
they
were
disceyued
.
So
this
ordynaunce
of
the
pope
was
right
coutagyous
to
them
and
they
complayned
often
tymes
therof
to
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
who
was
constable
of
Acquitayne
:
and
had
the
ouer
sight
by
right
of
armes
in
suche
maters
.
Howbeit
he
dissymuled
with
them
aswell
as
he
might
bycause
he
knewe
well
the
pope
had
cursed
them
/
and
howe
that
all
their
dedes
tourned
to
pyllyng
and
robbery
.
And
as
farr
as
euer
I
coude
here
they
had
neuer
other
remedy
in
that
mater
.
NOwe
let
vs
speke
of
the
prince
of
Wales
and
aproche
to
his
viage
/
&
shewe
howe
be
perseuered
.
First
as
it
hath
benshewed
here
before
/
he
dyde
so
moche
that
he
had
all
the
companyons
of
his
acorde
/
who
were
to
the
nombre
of
.
●ii
.
thousande
fightyng
men
:
and
greatly
it
was
to
his
cost
to
retayne
theym
.
And
after
he
had
them
/
he
susteyned
and
bare
their
charges
or
they
departed
out
of
the
principalyte
/
fro
the
be
〈…〉nyng
of
August
to
the
beginyng
of
February
and
besyde
that
the
prince
receyued
&
retayned
all
maner
of
men
of
warr
where
soeuer
he
coude
get
them
.
And
also
the
forsayd
kyng
Henry
retayned
men
of
warr
in
euery
parte
out
of
the
●ealme
of
Fraunce
and
other
places
/
and
they
came
to
serue
hym
/
bycause
of
the
alyaunces
that
were
bytwene
the
frenche
kyng
and
hym
.
And
also
he
had
with
him
retayned
some
of
the
companyons
bretons
/
suche
as
were
fauourable
to
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
:
as
sir
Bertramme
of
Budes
/
Alayne
of
saynt
Poule
/
Wyllyam
of
Bruex
/
and
Alayne
of
Connet
:
all
these
were
capitayns
of
those
companyons
.
And
the
prince
might
haue
had
also
with
hym
many
strāgersmen
of
warr
/
as
flemynges
/
almayns
/
and
brabances
:
of
he
had
lyst
.
But
he
sent
home
agayn
many
of
them
/
for
he
had
rather
haue
had
of
his
owne
subgettes
of
the
principalyte
than
strangers
.
Also
there
came
to
hym
a
great
ayde
out
of
Englande
/
for
whan
the
kyng
of
Englande
his
father
knewe
that
this
viage
went
forward
than
he
gaue
lycens
to
one
of
his
sonnes
/
duke
Johan
of
Lancastre
to
go
to
the
prince
of
Wales
his
brother
/
with
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
warr
:
as
four
hundred
men
of
armes
/
and
four
hundred
archers
.
And
whan
the
prince
knewe
of
his
brothers
comynge
/
he
was
therof
ryght
ioyouse
.
In
the
same
season
came
to
the
prince
to
Burdeaur
James
kyng
of
Mallorques
/
so
he
called
hymselfe
/
but
he
had
in
possessyon
nothynge
of
the
realme
.
For
the
kyng
of
Aragon
kept
it
fro
hym
byforce
/
and
had
stayne
in
prisone
the
kynge
of
Mallorques
in
a
cytie
called
Barselone
.
Therfore
this
yonge
kyng
James
to
reuenge
the
dethe
of
his
father
/
and
to
recouer
his
herytage
was
fledde
out
of
his
owne
realme
to
the
prince
:
and
he
had
maryed
the
quene
of
Naples
.
The
prince
made
hym
great
there
and
greatly
conforted
him
/
and
whan
the
kyng
had
shewed
the
prince
all
the
reasons
and
occasyons
of
his
comyng
/
and
parceyued
the
wronge
that
the
kynge
of
Aragon
had
done
to
hym
/
as
in
kepyng
fro
hym
his
enherytaunce
:
and
also
slayne
his
father
.
Than
the
prince
sayd
ser
king
I
promyse
you
faithfully
/
that
after
my
return
out
of
Spaygne
I
shall
entende
to
sette
you
agayne
into
your
herytage
/
outher
by
treaty
or
by
force
.
This
promyse
pleased
greatly
the
king
and
so
he
taryed
styll
with
the
prince
in
Burdeaux
/
abydinge
his
departynge
as
other
dyde
.
And
the
prince
to
do
hym
more
honour
/
caused
to
be
delyuered
to
hym
all
that
was
for
hym
necessary
/
bycause
he
was
a
stranger
and
of
a
farr
countre
:
and
had
nat
ther
of
his
owne
after
his
appetyte
.
And
dayly
ther
came
great
complayntes
to
the
prince
of
the
companyons
/
howe
they
dyde
moche
hurt
to
men
and
women
of
the
countre
wher
they
lay
/
so
that
the
people
of
that
marchesse
wolde
gladly
that
the
prince
shuld
auaunce
forthe
in
his
viage
/
to
the
whiche
the
prince
was
right
desyrous
.
Howe
be
it
he
was
counsayled
that
he
shulde
sustre
the
feest
of
Christmas
first
to
passe
/
to
th
entent
that
they
might
haue
wynter

.
To
the
whiche
counsayle
the
prince
inclyned
/
and
son
what
bycause
the
princes
his
wyfe
was
great
with
chylde
/
who
toke
moche
thought
for
his
departyng
.
wherfore
the
prince
wolde
gladly
seher
delyuered
or
he
departed
and
she
on
her
part
was
gladder
to
haue
him
a
byde
.
All
this
meane
season
ther
was
gret
prouysion
made
for
this
viage
/
bycause
they
shuld
entre
into
a

and
whyle

The

This

Thanne

I

Than
he
sent

he
wrote
a

thus
.
TO

It

agaynst

We
haue
therof
great
marueyle
for
we
neuer
forfeyted
to
you
/
nor
wolde
nat
do
.
Wherfore
than
ar
ye
come
with
suche
a
great
army
thus
on

/
to
take
fro

soo
lytell
an
herytage
as

hath
gyuen

.
ye
haue
the
grace
and
fortune
in

more
than
any

nowe
lyueng
/
wherfore
we
thynke

.
And
bycause
we
knewe
the
certaynte
that

/
we
wyll
that
ye

that
wher

Written
.
&c.
And
whan
this
letter
was
sealed
he
called
to
hym
an
haraulde
/
and
sayd
.
Go
thy
way
as
fast
as
thou
mayst

/
and
bere

.
So
the
haraude
departed
and
toke

tyll
he
founde
the

he
kneled
downe

The

reed

full

/
and
sheweth
great
hardynesse

Thus
the

were
longe
togyder
/
howbeit
finally
they
agreed
nat
to

agayne
by

Thus
the

THe

The

These

There

In

And
some

Therfore

was
right
perylous
to

for
it
was
narowe
and
an
yu●li

Ther
were
many
sore
troubled
for
lacke
of

for
they
founde

lytell
in

SAueter

This

and
to
take

and
to
robbe
and
pyll

.
Wher
vnto
they
had
great
o●syre

by
cause
of
the
great
riches
that
they
knew

for

Therfore
they

them selfe
to
kynge
Dampeter
and
cryed

and
presented
to

And

with

of

entred
in

:
and
th

of
Armynake
and
all

¶
Nowe
lette
vs
leaue
the
prince
there
/
and
somwhat
speke
of
his
men
that
were
at
the
towne
of
Nauaret
.
THe
forsayd
knightes
that
were
ther
greatly
desyred
to
auaunce
their
bodyes
/
for
they
were
a
fyue
dayes
●ourney
fro
their
owne
hoost
/
wher
as
they
departed
fro
them
first
.
And
often
tymes
they
yssued
out
of
Nauaret
&
rode
to
the
marchesse
of
their
enemyes
/
to
lerne
what
their

And
this
kyng
Henry
was
lodged
in
the
felde
and
all
his

/
desyryng
greatly
to
here
●idynges
of
the

/
marueylyng
gretly
that
his

retourned

And
often
tymes
his
men
rodenere
to
Nauaret
/
to
lerne
and
to
here
some
tidynges
of
th
englysshmen
/
and
the
erle
●ancell
brother
to
the
kyng
Dame
Henry
was
certaynly
enfourmed
that
ther
were
men
of
warr
in
garryson
in
the
towne
of
Nauaret
/
wherfore
he
thought
to
go
and
se
them
more
nerer
.
But
first
on
a
day
the
knightes
of
Englande
rode
out
of
Nauaretet
in
an
e●en●ynge
/
so
farforthe
that
they
came
to
kyng
Henryes
lodgynge
and
made
ther
a
great
〈…〉
mysshe
and
marueylous●y
awoke
the
host
/
and
slewe
and
tooke
dyuers
:
and
specially
the
knight
that
kept
the
wache
was
taken
without
recouery
/
and
so
retourned
agayne
to
Nauar●et
without
any
domage
.
And
the
nexte
day
they
sent
to
the
prince
a●
haraude
who
was
as
than
at
Saueter
/
signifyeng
hym
what
they
hadde
done
and
sene
/
and
what
puyssaunce
his
ennemyes
were
of
/
and
wher
they
were
lodged
.
For
they
knewe
all
this
well
by
the
informacyon
of
suche
prisoners
as
they
had
taken
.
Of
these
tidynges
the
prince
was
right
ioyouse
/
in
that
his
knightes
had
so
well
borne
them selfe
on
the
fronter
of
his
enemyes
.
●yng
H●ty
who
was
right
sore
displeased
/
that
th
englysshmen

lay
at
Nauaret
had
thus
escryed
his
hoost
/
sayd
howehe
wolde
aproche
nerer
to
his

:
&
so
auaunced
forwarde
.
And
whan
sir
Thomas
Phelto●
and
his

at
Naueret
knewe
that
kynge
Henry
was
passed

water
/
and
drewe
for
warde
to

.
Than
they
determyned
to
departe

and
to
take

/
to

more
certayntie
of

and
so
they
dyde

and
sente
worde

howe
that
kynge
Henry
aproched
fast
/
and
be
semyng
desyring
greatly
to
fynde

and
his

.
And
the
prince
who
was
as
than
at
Saueter
/
wher
he
vnderstode
that
kyng
Henry
was
passed
the
water
/
and
tooke
his

to
come
to
fight
with
him
he
was
right
ioyouse
/
and
sayd
a
highe
that
euery
man
herde
hym
.
By
my
●aythe
this
bastarde
Henry
is
a
valyant
knight
and
a
●ardy
/
for
it
is
signe
of
great
prome●
that
he

thus
for

and
sythe
he
dothe
so
/
and
we
〈◊〉
lykewise
him
by
all

we
ought
to

fight
togyder

Therfore
it
were
good
that
we
departed
fro
hens
and
go
forwarde

and
to
get
Uyctoria
or

〈◊〉
so
the

S●●●ter

First

and
all
his

and
he
dyde
so
moche
that
he
came
before
〈…〉
/
&
ther
he
founde
sir
Thomas
Phelton
and
that
for
sayd
knyghtes
to
whome
he
made
great
chere
/
and
demaunded
them
of
dyuers
thynges
.
And
as
they
were
deuysing
togyder
/
their
currours
came
and
reported
that
they
had
s●ue
the
currors
of
their

wherfore
they
knewe
for

that

Whan
the

vnderstode
these
ti●ynges

he
causes
his

and
cryed
alarum
through
out
all

And
whan
euery

herde
that

than
they
drewe
to

What

it
was
great

to

:
the

so
well

Wherof

ran
in
among
the
spanyardis
:
and
strake
a
knight
so
rudely
with
his
speare
that
the
spere
ran
clene
through
his
body
/
&
the
knyght
fell
downe
deed
.
Than
this
sir
Wyllm
was
enclosed
rounde
about
with
his
enemyes
/
&
there
he
fought
as
valiantly
as
any
knight
might
do
and
dyd
his
enemyes
great
domage
or
he
was
striken
to
the
erthe
:
his
brother
sir
Thomas
Felton
&
the
other
knyghtis
that
were
with
hym
on
the
mountayne
sawe
how
he
fought
&
dyde
marueyls
in
armes
/
and
sawe
well
what
parell
he
was
in
/
but
they
coude
nat
confort
hym
without
lesyng
of
themselfe
.
So
they
stode
styll
in
their
array
on
the
mountayne
.
And
the
sayd
knyght
fought
styll
as
long
as
he
coude
endure
/
but
finally
ther
was
slayne
.
Than
the
spanyardis
and
frenchmen
ymagined
howe
they
might
inuade
th
englysshmen
on
the
mountayne
.
So
that
day
ther
were
dyuers
feates
of
armes
done
&
a
chyued
/
for
sometyme
parte
of
them
wolde
discende
downe
the
mountayne
and
fyght
with
their
enemyes
&
recule
wisely
backe
agayne
to
it
.
Thus
in
this
estate
they
were
tyll
it
was
hye
noon
/
the
prince
wolde
gladly
haue
conforted
them
if
he
had
knowen
therof
and
delyuered
them
out
of
the
parell
but
he
was
nat
ware
therof
/
therfore
it
behoued
them
to
abyde
their
aduentur
.
Whan
they
had
thus
endured
scrymiss
hyng
a
gret
season
:
than
th
erle
of
Anxell
/
who
was
sore
displeased
that
they
endured
so
long
/
sayd
a
hye
to
his
company
.
Lordes
for
shame
what
do
we
here
thus
all
day
we
ought
or
this
tyme
to
haue
deuoured
them
.
Auaunce
forwarde
and
let
vs
fyght
with
them
with
a
fierse
wyll
/
ther
is
nothyng
wyll
be
gote
without
it
be
derely
bought
:
with
tho
wordes
the
frenchmen
and
spanyardes
auaunced
them
forthe
with
a
hardy
courage
/
and
came
to
them
so
close
togyder
that
they
coulde
nat
be
broken
.
So
than
on
the
mountayne
was
done
many
a
feat
of
armes
.
And
th
englysshmen
and
gascons
defended
themselfe
to
their
powers
right
valyantly
/
but
after
the
spanyardes
were
entred
in
among
them
they
coude
nat
endure
/
finally
they
were
all
taken
and
conquered
byforce
of
armes
.
So
that
non
escaped
but
a
certayne
varlettes
and
pages
that
saued
themselfe
by
their
horses
and
at
night
they
came
to
the

/
who
that
day
was

AFter

and
at

came
to

And
there
they
made
a

And

and
howe
that
in

Kynge
Henry
who
hard

with

ioy
and
glory
answered
th
erle
his

and
sayd
.
Fayre

Than

sayd

/
ye

fynde
the

suche

requyreth
/
for

Ther
shall
ye
fynde
sage

coragious
fightyng
men
/
for
to
dye
in

place
they
wyll
nat

Sir
it
is
necessary
that
ye

counsell
in

.
But
sir
and
ye
wyll
do
by
my
counsayle
ye
shall
disconfyte
them
without
any
stroke
strikyng
.
As
thus
/
if
ye
wyll
kepe
the
straites
and
passages
/
so
that
no
prouisyon
may
come
at
them
/
ye
shall
famysshe
them
and
so
discomfit
them
.
For
than
they
shal
be
fayne
to
retourne
in
to
their
owne
countre
warde
/
without
good
order
or
array
/
and
than
may
you
haue
yor

acomplysshed
.
Than
this
kyng
Henry
answered
and
sayd
:
marshall
by
the
soule
of
my
dere
father
I
desyre
so
moche
to

and
to

that
I
wyll
neuer

.
For
I
thanke
god
we
haue
men
ynowe
.
First
we
haue
seuyn
thousande
men
of

well
horsed
and
barded

so
that
they
feare
no

.
And

with

And
they
all
haue
sworne

/
wherfore
sir

I

/
but
let

of

.
And
so
with
this
talkyng
ther
were
knightes
that
brought

So
the

Than

No

agaynst
you
:
for
I
shall
nat
flye
one
fote
as
longe
as
I
may
se
you
do
your
deuoyre
.
By
these
wordes
and
suche
other
full
of
confort
:
kyng
Henry
brought
his
men
togyder
agayne
thre
tymes
the
same
day
/
and
with
his
owne
handes
he
fought
valiantly
:
so
that
he
ought
greatly
to
be
honoured
and
renowmed
.
This
was
a
marueylous
dangerous
batayle
/
and
many
a
man
slayne
and
sore
hurte
:
the
comons
of
Spayne
acordyng
to
the
vsage
of
their
countre
with
their
slynges
they
dyd
cast
stones
with
great
vyolence
and
dyde
moche
hurt
/
the
whiche
at
the
beginnynge
troubled
greatly
the
englysshmen
.
But
whan
their
cast
was
past
:
&
that
they
felt
the
sharpe
arrowes
lyght
amonge
them
/
they
coude
no
lengar
kepe
their
aray
.
with
kynge
Henry
in
his
batayle
/
were
many
noble
men
of
armes
:
as
well
of
Spayne
as
of
Lysbone
of
Aragon
/
and
of
Portyngale
:
who
acquyted
them
right
nobly
.
And
gaue
it
nat
vp
so
lyghtly
for
valiantly
they
fought
/
with
speares
/
iauelyns
/
archegayes
/
and
swerdes
.
And
on
the
wyng
of
kynge
Henries
batayle
ther
were
certayne
well
mounted
/
who
always
kept
the
batell
in
good
order
/
for
if
the
bataile
opened
or
brake
array
in
any
syde
/
than
they
were
euer
redy
to
helpe
to
bringe
them
agayne
in
to
good
order
.
So
these
englisshmen
and
gascons
or
they
had
the
aduauntage
they
bought
it
derely
/
&
wan
it
by
noble
chiualry
/
and
great
prowes
of
armes
.
And
for
to
say
trouthe
the
prince
hym selfe
was
the
chefe
flour
of
chiualry
of
all
the
worlde
and
had
with
him
as
than
right
noble
and
valyant
k●●ghtes
and
squyers
.
And
a
lytell
besyde
the
princes
batayle
was
the
kynge
of
Mallorques
and
his
company
/
fightynge
and
acquitynge
them selfe
right
valiantly
.
And
also
there
was
the
lorde
Martyn
de
la
karr
representyng
the
kynge
of
Nauer
/
who
dyde
right
well
his
de●oyre
/
I
can
nat
speke
of
all
them
that
dyd
that
day
right
nobly
.
But
aboute
the
prince
in
his
●●tayle
there
were
dyuers
good
knyghtes
/
as
well
of
Englande
as
of
Gascoyne
:
as
sir
Rycharde
Pount
Chardon
sir
Thomas
Spenser
/
sir
Thomas
Hollande
sir
Nowell
Lornyche
/
sir
Hugh
and
sir
Philyppe
Courtnay
/
sir
Johan
Comette
/
sir
Nycholas
Bonde
/
sir
Thomas
Comette
and
dyuers
other
:
as
the
se●●shall
of
●ayntonge
/
sir
Baudwyn
of
Fran●yil
/
the
seneshall
of
Burdeaux
/
of
Rochell
/
of
Poictou
/
of
Angoleme
/
of
Rouerne
/
of
Lym●●y●
/
and
of
Pyergourt
:
and
sir
Loyes
Marnell
sir
Raymon
Danduell
/
and
dyuers
other
.
Ther
was
none
that
fayned
to
fight
valiantly
and
also
they
hadde
good
cause
why
:
for
there
were
of
spaygniardes
and
of
Castyle
mo
than
a
hundred
thousande
men
in
harnesse
/
so
that
by
reason
of
their
great
nombre
/
it
was
longe
or
they
coude
be
ouercom
.
Kyng
Dampeter
was
greatly
chafed
and
moche
desyred
to
mete
with
the
bastarde
his
brother
/
and
sayd
:
where
is
that
horeson
that
calleth
hymselfe
kynge
of
Castell
.
And
the
same
kynge
Henry
fought
ryght
valyantly
where
as
he
was
/
&
helde
his
people
togyder
right
marueylously
/
and
sayde
.
Aye
good
people
ye
haue
crowned
me
kyng
/
therfore
helpe
and
ayde
me
/
to
kepe
the
herytage
that
you
haue
gyue
me
.
So
that
by
these
wordes
&
suche
other
as
he
spake
that
day
/
he
caused
many
to
be
right
hardy
and
valyaunt
/
wherby
they
abode
on
the
felde
:
so
that
bycause
of
their
herewith
they
wolde
nat
flye
fro
the
place
.
¶
Howe
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
was
disconfyted
:
he
taken
/
and
kyng
Henry
saued
hym selfe
/
and
of
the
spanyardes
that
fledde
/
and
of
the

.
And
of
the
cyties
that
yelded
them
vp
to
kyng
Dampeter
:
and
of
the
aunswere
that
he
made
to
the

.
Cap.

THe
batayle
that
was
best
fought
and
lengest
helde
togyder
was
the
company
of
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
/
for
there
were
many
noble
men
of
armes
who
fought
and
helde
toguyder
to
their
powers
:
and
ther
was
done
many
a
noble
feat
of
armes
.
And
on
the
englysshe
parte
specially
there
was
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
who
that
day
dyde
lyke
a
noble
knight
/
and
gouerned
&
counsayled
that
day
the

in

maner
as
he
dyde
before
the
prince
at
the
batell
of
Poycters
/
wherin
he
was
greatly
renomed
and
praysed
/
the
whiche
was
good
reason
:
for
a
valyant
man
and
a
good
knyght
acquitynge
hym selfe
nobly
among
lordes
&
princes
ought
greatly
to
be
recommended
/
for
that
day
he
toke
no
hede
for
takyng
of
any
prisoner
with
his
owne
handes
/
but
alwayes
fought
and
went
forwarde
:
but
there
was
taken

his
company
vnder

dyuers
good

and

And

of
Clesquy
/
sir
Arnolde
Dandrehen
/
sir
Begue
of
Uillaynes
/
and
mo

.
So
thus
finally
the

of

was
disconfyted
/
and
all

were
therin
taken
and

/
of

Chandos
/
and

and

And

and

Than

and

The

shewed
hymselfe
lyke
a

knight
/
and
fought
valyantly
with
his

.
On
the
othersyde
kyng
Henry
acquited
hymselfe
right
valiantly
/
and
recouered
and
tourned
agayn
his

that

for

that
the

and
a

thousande
horsmen
with

were
departed
fro

:
the
other
began
than
greatly
to
be
discomfyted
/
and
were
euer
redy
to
flye
after
their
company
/
but
than
euer
kynge
Henry
was
before
theym
/
and
sayde
.
Fayre
lordes
what
do
you●
wherfore
wyll
ye
thus
forsake
and
betraye
me
/
sythe
ye
haue
made
me
kynge
and
set
the
crowne
on
my
heed
:
and
putte
the
herytage
of
Castell
into
my
handes
.
Retourne
&
helpe
to
kepe
and
defende
me
/
and
abyde
with
me
:
for
by
the
grace
of
god
or
it
be
night
all
shal
be
ours
.
So
that
these
wordes
or
suche
lyke
/
encoraged
his
people
in
suche
wyse
/
that
it
made
theym
to
abyde
lengar
in
the
felde
/
for
they
durst
nat
flye
for
shame
:
whan
they
sawe
their
kynge
&
their
lorde
so
valiantly
fight
/
and
speke
so
amyably
.
So
that
there
dyed
mo
than
a
thousande
and
fyue
hundred
persons
/
that
might
well
haue
saued
themselfe
/
and
haue
taken
the
tyme
to
their
aduantage
:
and
the
loue
that
they
had
to
their
lorde
and
kynge
hadde
nat
been
.
WHan
the
batayle
of
the
marshalles
were
passed
throughe
their
ennemyes
/
and
had
disconfyted
the
grettest
nombre
of
them
:
so
that
the
spanyardes
coude
nat
susteyn
nor
defende
them
any
lengar
/
but
began
to
flye
away
in
great
feare
/
without
any
good
array
or
order
toward
the
cyte
of
Nauaret
/
and
so
passe●
by
the
great
ryuer
.
So
that
for
any
wordes
that
kyng
Henry
coude
say
they
wolde
nat
retorne
/
and
whan
the
kyng
sawe
the
myschefe
and
disconfyture
of
his
people
/
and
that
he
sawe
no
recouery
.
Than
he
called
for
his
horse
and
mounted
theron
/
and
put
hymselfe
among
them
that
fledde
:
but
he
toke
nat
the
way
to
Nauaret
for
feare
of
enclosynge
/
but
than
toke
another
way
●schewyng
all
paryls
:
for
he
knewe
well
that
if
he
were
taken
he
shulde
dye
without
mercy
.
Than
the
englysshmen
and
gascons
lept
a
horsebake
and
began
to
chase
the
spanyardes
/
who
sledde
away
sore
disconfyted
to
the
great
ryuer
.
And
at
the
entre
of
the
bridge
of
Nauaret
/
ther
was
a
hydeous
shedynge
of
blode
and
many
a
man
slayne
and
drowned
:
for
dyuers
lepte
into
the
water
the
whiche
was
depe
and
hydeous
:
they
thought
they
had
as
lyue
to
be
drowned
as
slayne
.
And
in
this
chase
amonge
other
/
ther
were
two
valyant
knightes
of
Spayne
/
beryng
on
them
the
abyte
of
relygion
.
The
one
called
the
great
priour
of
saynt
James
/
and
the
other
the
great
maister
of
Calatrane
.
They
and
their
company
to
saue
themselfe
entred
in
to
Nauaret
/
and
they
were
so
nere
chased
at
their
backe
/
by
englysshmen
and
gascoyns
/
that
they
wan
the
bridge
/
so
that
ther
was
a
great
slaughter
.
And
th
englysshmen
entred
into
the
cytie
after
their
enemyes
/
who
were
entred
into
a
strong
house
of
stone
.
Howbeit
incontynent
it
was
won
byforce
:
and
the
knightis
taken
and
many
of
their
men
slayne
/
and
all
the
cyte
ouerron
and
pylled
the
whiche
was
greatly
to
th
englysshmens
profyte
.
Also
they
wanne
kyng
Henries
lodgynge
wherin
they
founde
gret
richesse
of

and
iowelles
of

and
syluer

for

so
that
whan

/
they
had
no
layser
for
to
retourne
thyder
agayne
/
to
saue
that
they
had

So
this
was
a
hydeous
and
a
terryble
discomfyture
/
and
specially
on
the
ryuer
syde
ther
was
many
a

And

And
than

and

KInge
Henry
as
it
is
sayd
here
after
/
saued
hym selfe
as
well
as
he
myght
/
and
withdrewe
fro
his
ennemyes
.
And
ledde
his
wyfe
and
his
chyldren
as
soone
as
he
might
in
to
the
cytie
of
Ualence
in
Aragon
/
where
as
the
kyng
of
Aragon
was
/
who
was
his
godfather
and
frende
:
and
to
hym
recounted
all
his
aduenture
.
And
anone
after
the
sayd
kyng
Henry
was
counsayled
to
passe
further
/
and
to
god
to
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
who
as
than
was
at
Montpellyer
/
and
to
shewe
vnto
hym
all
his
aduenture
.
This
aduyce
was
pleasaunt
to
the
kynge
of
Arragon
/
and
consented
well
that
he
shulde
go
thyder
/
bycause
he
was
ennemy
to
the
prince
/
who
was
his
nere
neighbour
.
So
thus
kinge
Henry
departed
fro
the
kynge
of
Arragon
/
and
lefte
in
the
cytie
of
Ualence
his
wyfe
&
his

/
and
rode
so
longe
that
he
paste

whiche
was

cytie
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
on
that
syde
/
and
after
that
Beseers
and
all
that
countrey
.
And
so
came
to
Mountpellyer
/
and
there
founde
the
duke
of
Aniowe
who
loued
hym
entierly
/
and
greatly
hated
the
englysshmen
:
though
he
made
them
as
than
no
warre
.
And
the
duke
whan
he
was
well
enfourmed
of
kynge
Henryes
busynesse
receyued
hym
ryght
ioyously
/
and
recounforted
hym
as
well
as
he
might
:
and
so
the
kynge
taryed
there
with
hym
a
certayne
space
.
And
than
went
to
Auygnone
to
se
pope
Urbayne
/
who
was
as
than
departynge
to
go
to
Rome
.
And
thanne
kynge
Henry
retourned
agayne
to
Mountpellyer
to
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
and
had
longe
treaty
toguyder
.
And
it
was
shewed
me
by
them
that
thought
them selfe
to
knowe
many
thynges
/
&
after
it
was
right
well
sene
apparent
Howe
that
this
kynge
Henry
dyde
gette
of
the
duke
of
Aniowe
a
castell
nere
to
Tholous
/
on
the
marchesse
of
the
principalyte
/
called
Rockemor
.
And
there
he
assembled
toguyder
companyons
and
men
of
warr
/
as
bretons
:
and
such
other
as
were
nat
passed
ouer
into
Spaygne
with
the
prince
:
so
that
in
the
begynnyng
there
was
a
thre
hundred
men
of
warre
.
These
tidynges
were
anone
brought
to
my
lady
princesse
/
who
as
than
was
at
Burdeux
.
Howe
that
kynge
Henry
purchased
hym
ayde
and
socoure
on
all
sydes
/
to
th
entent
to
make
warr
to
the
principalyte
and
to
the
duchy
of
Guyen
/
wher
with
she
was
greatly
abasshed
.
And
bycause
that
he
helde
hymselfe
in
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
She
wrote
letters
and
sent
messangers
to
the
frenche
kynge
/
desyringe
hym
nat
to
consente
that
the
bastarde
of
Spaygne
shulde
make
her
any
maner
of
warre
:
seyng
that
her
resorte
was
to
the
court
of
Fraunce
.
Certifyeng
him
that
moche
yuell
might
ensue
/
and
many
inconuenyentes
fall
therby
.
Than
the
kynge
condyscended
lightly
to
the
princesse
request
/
and
hastely
sent
messangers
to
the
bastard
Henry
/
who
was
in
the
castell
of
Rockemore
on
the
fronters
of
Mountaubon
/
and
was
begynnynge
to
make
warre
to
the
countre
of
Acquitayne
/
and
to
the
princes
lande
.
Commaundynge
hym
incontynent
to
auoyde
oute
of
his
realme
/
and
to
make
no
warre
in
the
lande
of
his
dere
nephue
the
prince
of
Wales
and
of
Acquitayne
.
And
bycause
to
gyue
ensample
to
his
subgettis
/
that
they
shulde
nat
be
so
hardy
to
take
any
part
with
the
bastarde
Henry
/
he
caused
the
yonge
erle
of
Auser
to
be
putte
in
prison
/
in
the
castell
of
Loure
in
Parys
:
bycause
he
was
soo
great
and
conuersaunt
with
this
kynge
Henry
the
bastarde
.
And
as
it
was
sayd
/
he
hadde
promysed
him
to
ayde
him
with
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
armes
but
thus
the
frenche
kynge
caused
him
to
breke
his
voyage
and
purpose
.
So
thus
at
the
commaundement
of
the
frenche
kynge
/
kyng
Henry
obeyed
/
the

and
called

to

Than

to

These

as
they
hadde
in
charge
by
their
lorde
the
prince
.
Than
the
kynge
answered
them
in
excusyng
of
himselfe
and
sayd
.
Sirs

certaynly
it
greatly
displeaseth

But
our

the
how
they
canne
make
no
some

money
/
as

Therfore

as

and

hym
.
This
was
all
the
aunswere
that
these
knyghtes
coulde
haue
of
hym
at
that
tyme
.
And
so
they
departed
and
wente

to

:
and
than
recounted
to

and
to

/
with
the
whiche
answere
the

was
moche
more

.
For
he
sawe
well
how
that
kynge
Dampeter
fayled
of
his
promyse
/
and
varyed
fro
reason
.
The
same
season
that
the
prince
thus
abode
in
the
vale
of
Olyffes
/
where
as
he
hadde
bene
more
than

The

Than

Bygour
/
and
had
takenne

/
and
made
great

.
Therfore
sir
Bertram
of

was
nat
delyuered
at
that
tyme
.
WHan
that
the
prince
of
Wales
herde

of

than

more

of

and

of

.
And
also
the
prince
hymselfe
was
nat
verry
well
at

/
and
therfore
his

counsayled
hym
to
retourne
agayne
.
Sayeng
howe
kynge
Damepeter
hath
greatly
faylled
hym
to
his

.
Than
it
was
shewed

.
And
whan
the
prince
shulde
remoue
/
he
sent

/
sir

Cortnay
and

desiryng

/
for
the

wolde

Than
the
kyng

said
/
sirs

but

present
tyme
I

Than
the

whan

Nay

qd
the

nede
/
for
I
knowe

.
And
so
they
departed
and
retourned
to
the
prince
/
she
wyng
him
what
they
had
done
.
Well
sayd
the
prince
/
as
it
please
god
and
hym
so
be
it
.
Than
the
price
departed
and
all
his
company
/
and
went
to
a
cytie
called
Madigray
/
and
ther
he
rested
in
the
vale
called
Foyrie
/
bytwene
Aragon
&
Spayne
.
And
ther
he
taryed
a
moneth
:
for
ther
were
certayne
passages
closed
agaynst
him
in
the
marchesse
of
Aragon
.
And
it
was
sayd
in
the
hoost
that
the
kynge
of
Nauarr
/
who
was
newly
retourned
out
of
prison
/
was
agreed
with
the
bastarde
of
Spayne
/
and
with
the
kynge
of
Aragon
to
let
the
princes
passage
:
but
yet
he
dyde
nothyng
as
it
apered
after
.
Howe
be
it
the
prince
was
in
doute
of
hym
/
bycause
he
was
in
his
owne
countrey
/
and
came
nat
to
hym
.
In
this
meane
season
ther
were
sent
to
a
certayn
place
/
bytwene
Aragon
and
Spayne
/
certayne
persons
of
bothe
parties
/
and
so
had
great
comunyng
togyder
dyuers
dayes
.
Finally
they
so
agreed
that
the
kyng
of
Aragon
shuld
opyn
his
countre
/
and
suffre
the
princes
people
to
returne
and
passe
peasably
without
any
lette
of
any
of
the
countre
/
payeng
courtesly
for
that
they
toke
.
THan
came
to
the
prince
the
kyng
of
Nauer
and
sir
Martyn
de
la
Kar
whan
they
saw
the
mater
go

they
coude
deuyse
/
and
offred
passage
for
hym
and
for

the

of
Lancastre
/
and
for
dyuers
other
knyghtes
of
Englande
and
of

/
but
in
any
wyse
he
wolde
that
the
companyons
shulde
take
their
way
by
some
other
passage
/
and
nat
through
Naurr
.
Than
the
prince
and
his
lordes
/
whan
they
sawe
that
the
way
through
Nauarr
was
more
mete
and
necessary
for

than
through
Aragon
/
thought
nat
to
refuse
the
kynge
of
Nauars
offre

but
so
thanked

greatly
.
Thus
the
prince
passed
through
the

and
the
kynge
and
sir
Martyn
de
la
Karr
conueyed

tyll
they
came
to
the

of
Bayone
/
wher

And
there
the

/
and
than

Where
he
was

:
and

the
princesse
mette
hym

her
yonge
sonne
Edward
/
who
as

was
of

Than
departed
the
lordes
and
men
of

one
from

/
and
the
lordes
of
Gascoyne
went
home
to
their
owne

/
and
the
companyons
came
also
into
the
pricipalyte
:
abyding
for

.
The

/
as

And

¶
Nowe

AFter

some
nor
fynaunce
/
the
whiche
was
sore
displesaunt
to
kyng

/
if

And
so
it
fortuned
after

I

enformed
/
that
on
a

the

called
to

sir
Bertram

and
demaunded

and
sayd
.
Sir

It

reason
that

With

The

vnto
the
tyme
that
kyng
Dampeter
had
payed
hym
all
suche
sommes
/
as
he
was
bounde
to

Than
he
said
to
sir
Bertram
/
sir
than
ye
thinke
that
we
kepe
you
for
feare
of

chiualry
.
Nay

/
therfore

/
a

thousande

Sir

who

.
Sir
in

so
be
it
I
wyll
pay
no
lasse
.
And
whan
the
prince
herde
him
say
so
/
he
wolde
than
gladly
haue
repented

selfe
:
and
also
some

came
to
him
and
sayd
.
Sir
ye
haue
nat
done
well
so
lightly
to

.
And
so
they
wolde
gladly
haue
caused
the
prince
to
haue
reuoked
that
couenaunt
/
but
the
prince
who
was
a
true
and
a
noble
knight
sayd
.
Sythe
that
we
haue
agreed
therto
/
we
wyll
nat
breke

It

/
seyng

And

YE
haue
well
herde
here
before
recounted
/
the
maner
of
the
vyage
that
the
prince
of
Wales
had
made
into
Spayne
/
and
howe
he
departed
thens
nat
well
content
with
the
kyng
Dampeter
/
and
howe
he
returned
into
Acquitayne
.
So
that
whan
he
was
thus
returned
all
maner
of
men
of
warr
folowed
him
bycause
they
thought
nat
to
abyde
behynde
in
Spayne
/
bycause
kyng
Dampeter
payed
nat
them
their
wages
as
he
had
promysed
.
And
thus
whan
they
were
all
returned
/
the
price
had
nat
payment
for
them
/
so
redy
as
he
wolde
haue
had
for
his
vyage
into
Spayne
had
so
sore
mynisshed
and
wasted
his
richesse
/
that
it
was
marueyle
to
thynke
theron
.
And
so
soiourned
these
companyons
vpon
the
countre
of
Acquitayne
who
coude
nat
absteyn
themselve
fro
robbyng
of
the
countre
/
for
they
were
well
.vi.
M.
fightyng
men
.
And
at
the
last
the
prince
desyred
them
to
departe
his
realme
/
for
the
countre
was
nat
able
to
susteyn
them
no
lenger
.
The
capitayns
of
these
companyons
were
all
englysshmen
and
gascons
.
As
sir
Robert
Briquet
/
Johan
Treuell
/
Robert
Ceny
/
sir
Gaylarde
Uyger
/
the
Bourge
of
Bertuell
/

/
the
Bourge
of

/
Nandon
of
Bergerant
/
Bernard
de
la
Sale
:
and
many
other
whiche
wolde
nat
displease
the
prince
.
But
yssued
out
of
the
principalyte
as
shortely
as
they
might
/
and
entred
into
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
the
whiche
they
called
their
chambre
and
passed
the
ryuer
of
Loyre
/
and
so
came
in
to
Champayne
and
in
to
the
bysshopriche
of
Raynes
:
and
alwayes
their
nombre
encreased
.
And
to
aduenture
them selfe
/
they
serched
all
aboute
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
and
dyde
many
yuell
trybulacions
and
vilayne
dedes
:
wherof
the
complayntes
came
dayly
to
the
frenche
kynge
and
to
his
counsayle
.
Howe beit
they
coude
fynde
no
remedy
/
for
they
durst
nat
fight
with
them
:
and
the
people
all
about
marueyled
greatly
that
the
prince
of
Wales
wolde
sende
theym
thyder
to
make
warre
.
Than
the
frenche
kynge
sente
for
the
lorde
Clysson
/
and
made
him
great
capitayne
agaynst
those
yuell
companyons
/
bycause
he
was
a
good
knyght
and
a
hardy
:
and
the
kynge
had
hym
in
great
loue
and
fauoure
.
And
in
the
same
season
there
was
a
maryage
made
bytwene
the
lorde
Dalbret
/
and
the
lady
Isabell
of
Bourbone
/
of
the
whiche
the
prince
was
nothynge
gladde
:
for
he
had
rather
that
the
lorde
Dalbret
had
ben
maryed
in
some
other
place
.
For
the
whiche
cause
the
price
spake
great
wordes
agaynst
hym
/
but
the
greattest
of
his
counsayle
/
aswell
knightes
as
squyers
/
excused
hym
all
that
they
might
.
Sayeng
to
the
prince
howe
that
euery
man
wyll
be
gladde
to
auaunce
himselfe
as
nere
as
he
can
.
and
that
a
gode
knight
ought
nat
to
be
blamed
though
he
purchase
his
owne
honour
and
profyte
/
so
that
he
leaue
nat
therby
to
serue
his
price
or
maister
/
in
that
he
is
bounde
to
do
.
So
by
these
wordes
or
suche
semblable
/
the
price
was
somwhat
apeased
:
howe
be
it
what
so
euer
semblant
he
made
he
was
nat
very
well
content
/
for
he
thought
verily
that
the
same
maryage
shulde
be
cause
of
with
drawynge
of
loue
fro
hym
/
and
fro
theym
that
toke
his

the
whiche
was

IN

Sayeng
howe

THus

So

Sir

who

was
contrary
to
this
opinyon

whan

He

And

who
was
all
this
season
in
the
realme
of
Arragon
/
and
lette
vs
shewe
howe
he
perseuered
after
.
THe
moost
parte
of
the
state
of
the
prince
&
of
his
besynesse
/
was
well
knowen
with
the
kynges
there
about
.
As
with
kyng
Peter
of
Aragon
/
&
with
kyng
Henry
:
for
they
layed
great
/
wayte
to
knowe
it
.
They
vnderstode
well
howe
the
barownes
of
Gascon
were
gone
to
Parys
to
the
frenche
kynge
/
and
in
a
maner
began
to
rebell
agaynst
the
prince
/
with
the
whiche
they
were
nothyng
displeased
.
And
specially
kynge
Henry
:
for
than
he
thought
to
attayne
agayne
to
conquere
the
realme
of
Castell
/
the
whiche
he
hadde
lost
by
the
meanes
of
the

.
And
so
than
kyng
Henry
toke
leaue
of
the
kynge
of
Arragon
/
and
departed
fro
the
towne
of
Ualence
the

and
out
of
Arragon
with
hym
ther
went
the
Uycount
of
Roquebertyn
/
and
the
Uycount
of
Roodes
/
and
they
were

thousande
horsemen
/
and
sixe
thousande
a

/
with
a
certayne
genowayes
that
the

.
And
so
they
rode
towarde
Spaygne
tyll
they
came
to
the
Cytie
of
Burgus
/
the
whiche
incontynent
was
opyned
and
rendered
vp
to
kynge
Henry
.
And
they
receyued
him
as
their
lorde
/
and
fro
thens
he
went
to
the
Uale
Olyfe
:
for
kynge
Henry
vnderstode
that
the
kyng
of
Mallorques
was
styll
ther
And
whan
they
of
the
towne
of
Uale
Olyfe
vnderstoode
that
they
of
Burgus
had
yelded
vp
their
towne
to
kyng
Henry
/
than
they
thought
natte
to
kepe
their
towne
agaynst
hym
/
and
so
yelded
them
to
him
/
and
receyued
him
as
their
lorde
.
Assone
as
the
kyng
was
entred
into
the
towne
/
he
demaunded
where
the
kyng
of
Mallorques
was
/
the
whiche
was
shewed

.
Than
the
kynge
entred
into
the
chambre
wher
he
lay
nat
fully
hole
of
his
dysease
:
thanne
the
kynge
went
to
hym
/
and
sayde
.
Sir
kyng
of
Mallorques
ye
haue
ben
our
enemy
/
and
with
a
great
army
ye
haue
enuaded
this
our
realme
of
Castell
.
Wherfore
we
set
our
handes
on
you
/
therfore
yelde
your selfe
as
our
prisoner
or
els
ye
ar
but
deed
.
And
whan
the
kynge
of
Mallorques
sawe
hym selfe
in
that
case
/
and
that
no
defence
wolde
helpe
hym
/
he
sayde
.
Sir
kynge
truely
I
am
but
deed
yf
that
it
please
you
/
and
sir
gladly
I
yelde
me
vnto
you
but
to
none
other
.
Therfore
sir
if
your
mynde
be
to
put
me
into
any
other
mannes
handes
shewe
it
me
/
for
I
had
rather
dye
than
to
be
put
in
to
the
handes
of
my
v●ter
enemy
the
kyng
of
Aragon
.
Sir
said
the
kyng
feare

I
wyll
do
you
but
right
:
yf
I
dyde
otherwyse
I
were

.
ye
shall
be
my
prisoner
:
outher
to
acquyte
you
/
or
to
raun
some

at
my
pleasure
.
Thus
was
the
kyng
o●
Mallorques
taken
by
ky●g
Henry
and
caused
hym
to
be
well
kept
ther
and
than
he
rode

for
what
so
euer

they
had
made
to
hym
before

/
yet
they

Bycause
of

and
they
were
euer
in

that
he
wolde

And
kyng
Henry

The

Sanxes
and

by
whome
the

And

Ther

the

Howbeit

Of

So
thus
king
Dampeter
was
brought
to
the
Begues
lodgyng
/
into
the
proper
loging
of
sir
yone
of
Kaonet
.
And
he
had
nat
ben
ther
the
space
of
an
hour
/
whan
that
kynge
Henry
&
th
erle
of
Roquebertyn
and
a
certayne
with
them
came
to
the
same
logyng
.
And
assoone
as
king
Henry
was
entred
in
to
the
chambre
/
he
sayde
.
wher
is
that
horeson
and
iewe
/
that

kyng
of
Castell
.
Than
kynge
Dampeter
who
was
alryght
hardy
and
a
cruell
knyght
auaunced
himselfe
/
and
sayd
.
Nay
thou
art
a
hores
sonne
/
and
I
am
sonne
to
kyng
Alphons
/
&
ther
with
he
toke
kyng
Henry
his
brother
in
his
armes
/
and
wrestled
so
with
hym
/
that
he
ouer
thrue
hym
on
a
benche
/
and
set
his
hand
on
his
knyfe
/
&
had
slayne
hym
without
remedy
/
and
the
vycount
of
Roquebertyn
had
nat
bene
.
He
toke
kyng
Dampeter
by
the
legge
and
turned
hym
vp
sedowne
/
so
that
kyng
Henry
was
than
aboue
/
who
drue
out
a
longe
knyfe
/
and
strake
kyng
Dampeter
into
the
body
.
Ther
with
his
men
came
in
to
helpe
hym
.
and
ther
was
slayn
also
by
him
a
knight
of
England
called
ser
Rafe
Helme
/
who
was
somtyme
called
the
grene
squier
/
and
an
other
squyer
called
James
Roulant
bycause
they
made
defence
.
But
as
for
Domfe
rant
of
Casters
and
the
other
had
none
yuell
/
but
remayned
prisoners
to
the
Begue
of
Uyllayns
/
and
to
sir
Lyon
of
Kaonet
.
THus
ended
kyng
Dampeter
of
Castell
who
somtyme
reigned
in
great
prosperyte
.
And
after
he
was
slayne
he
was
lefte
thre
dayes
aboue
the
erthe
/
the
which
me
thynke
was
great
pyte
.
Than
the
next
day
the
lorde
of
Nantueyle
yelded
hym
to
kynge
Henry
/
and
he
toke
hym
to
mercy
/
and
all
tho
that
wolde
tourne
to
him
.
Than
tidynges
ran
ouer
all
Castell
how
kyng
Dampeter
was
slayne
/
wherof
his
frendes
were
sory
/
and
his
enemyes
ioyfull
.
But
whan
the
kynge
of
Portyngale
herde
howe
his
cosyn
kyng
Dampeter
was
deed
/
he
was
right
sorowfull
:
and
sware
&
sayde
that
his
dethe
shulde
be
reuenged
.
And
so
he
sentincōtynent
his
defyance
to
kyng
Henry
&
made
hym
warr
/
and
kept
the
marchesse
of
Ciuyll
agaynst
him
a
certayn
season
/
but
for
all
that
kyng
Henry
left
nat
his
purpose
in
pursuyng
of
his
enterprise
/
but
returned
to
Tollet
/
the
which
yelded
vp
streight
to
hym
/
and
all
the
countre
ther
about
.
And
at
last
the
kyng
of
Portingale
thought
nat
to
kepe
any
lengar
warr
agaynst
kyng
Henry
:
so
ther
was
a
peace
made
bytwene
them
/
by
the
meanes
of
the
prelates
&
lordes
of
Spayne
.
Thus
kinge
Henry
abode
in
peace
kyng
of
Castell
and
with
hym
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
/
sir
Olyuer
of
Many
/
and
other
knightes
&
squyers
of
france
and
of
Bretayne
.
And
kyng
Henry
dyd
moche
for
them
as
he
was
bounde
to
do
for
without
their
helpe
he
had
nat
obtayned
his
purpose
/
&
so
he
made
sir
Bertram
constable
of
Spayne
/
and
gaue
hym
the
lande
of
Soyrie
/
the
whiche
was
yerely

and
also

Than
the
kynge
went

.
Of

and
good

About

¶

bycause

they
wer

more

And

Sayeng

Of

displeased
&
argued

and

:
they
ought
to

affirmynge
howe

Wherin
it
maketh

so
that

To

Thus

with

consydering

Therfore

before

of

And

Also

In

This

Among

that
had
ben
graunted

aswell
at
Bertigny
besyde
Charters
as
at
Calays
:
whan
kynge
Johan
was
ther.
This
sayd
charter
was
one
of
them
/
and
was
well
reed
and
examyned
by
kyng
Charles
/
in
the
presence
of
the
chefe
of
his
counsell
.
Than
the
prelates
and
barons
of
France
sayd
to
the
kyng
.
Sir
the
kynge
of
England
&
the
prince
his
son
/
haue
nat
fulfylled
the
sayd
peace
/
but
haue
taken
townes
&
castels
and
do
kepe
them
:
to
the
great
domage
of
this
your
realme
/
and
raunsometh
&
pylleth
the
people
so
that
the
payment
of
the
redemcion
is
yet
in
ꝑtie
vnpayed
.
Therfore
sir
/
you
&
your
subgettes
haue
good
ryght
&
iust
cause
to
brek
the
peace
/
&
to
make
warr
agaynst
th englyshmen
/
&
to
take
fro
them
Bretayn
/
the
which
they
haue
on
this
syde
the
water
.
Also
some
of
his
counsayle
shewed
him
secretly
by
great
delyberacion
sayeng
sir
:
hardely
take
on
you
this
warre
/
forye
haue
cause
so
to
do
.
For
sir
assone
as
ye
ones
begyn
the
warr
/
ye
shall
se
&
fynde
that
they
of
the
duchy
of
Acqquitayn
shall
turne
to
you
:
aswell
prelates
/
barons
/
erles
/
knightis
&
squiers
:
as
the
burgesses
of
good
townes
.
ye
may
se
sir
/
howe
the
prince
wolde
ꝓcede
in
reysing
of
this
fowage
/
but
he
can
nat
bring
it
to
his
purpose
:
&
so
ther
by
he
is
in
hatred
withall
persons
/
for
they
of
Poictou
/
Xaynton
/
Querry
/
Lymosyn
/
Rouerne
/
and
of
Rochell
/
are
of
suche
nature
/
that
they
can
in
no
wyse
loue
th englyshmen
/
nor
th englyshmen
them
/
they
are
so
proude
&
presūtuous
:
nor
neuer
dyd
.
And
also
besyde
that
/
the
officers
of
the
price
dothe
suche
extorcions
on
the
people
of
Xainton
Poitou
/
&
Rochell
:
for
they
take
all
in
abandon
/
and
reyseth
somoch
of
them
in
the
tytell
of
the
price
so
that
ther
is
none
that
is
sure
to
haue
any
thing
of
his
owne
.
And
also
the
gentylmen
of
the
countre
can
attayne
to
no
offyce
nor
preferment
/
for
the
englyshmen
and
seruantis
to
the
prince
hath
all
.
Thus
the
french
kyng
was
moued
&
counsayled
to
moue
warr
/
and
namely
by
the
duke
of
Aniou
who
lay
at
Tholous
/
desyred
gretly
the
warr
/
as
he
that
leued
nothing
th englishmen
/
bycause
of
suche
displeasures
as
they
had
done
hym
in
tyme
past
.
And
also
the
gascons
sayd
often
tymes
to
the
kyng
.
Dere
sir
we
are
bounde
to
haue
our
resorte
to
your
court
/
therfore
we
humbly
requyre
you
/
that
ye
wyll
do
right
&
lawe
.
And
as
ye
are
the
most
rightfull
price
of
the
worlde
/
do
vs
right
:
on
the
great
grefes
&
extorcions
that
the
price
of
Wales
&
his
people
doth
/
&
wolde
do
to
vs
.
&
sir
if
ye
refuce
to
do
vs
ryght
/
we
shall
than
purchace
for
our selfe
some
remedy
/
in
some
other
place
:
and
shall
yelde
&
put
our selfe
vnder
the

as
shall
cause

to
haue
reason
:
and
so
therby
than
shall

lese

And
the
french
kynge
who
was
●othe
to
lese
them
▪
thinkyng
it
might
be
a
great
hurt
and
preiudice
to
him
&

/
answered
them
right
curtesly
&
sayd
.
Sirs
for

▪
ye

.
Howbeit
in
all
suche
besynesse
/
it
behoueth
to
worke
and
folowe

&
aduyce

Thus
the
kyng
draue
them
of
/
nigh
the
space
of
a
yere
/
and
kept
them
styll
with
hym
at
Parys
/
and
payed
for
all
their
e●pences
/
and
gaue
them
great
gyftes
and
iowelles
.
And
alwayes
raused
to
besecretly
enquered
amonge
them
/
if
the
peace
were
broken
bytwene
hym
&
Englande
/
whyder
they
wolde
maynteyne
his
quarell
or
nat
/
and
they
answered
that
if
the
warr
were
ones
open
/
the
frenche
kyng
shulde
nat
nede
to
care
for
that
part
for
they
sayd
they
were
stronge
ynough
to
kepe
warr
with
the
price
and
all
his
puyssance
.
Also
the
kynge
sent
to
them
of
Abuyle
/
to
knowe
yf
they
wolde
tourne
&
take
his
parte
and
become
frenche

And
they
answered
that
they
desyred
nothynge
in
all
the
worlde
so
moche
/
as
to
be
french
:
they
hated
so
deedly

Thus
the
french
kyng
gate
hym
●r●des
on
all
ꝑtes

els
he
durst
nat
haue
done
that

THe
frenche
kyng
all
this
season
secretly
and
subtelly
had
get
to
hym
dyuers
capitayns
of
the
companyons
and
other
/
and
he
sent
than
into
the
marches
of
Berry
&
Auergne
.
The
kyng
consented
that
they
shulde
lyue
there
vpon
that
countre
/
commaundyng
them
to
make
no
warr
tyll
they
were
otherwyse
commaunded
/
for
the
frenche
kynge
wolde
nat
be
knowen
of
the
warr
/
for
therby
he
thought
he
shulde
lese
the
enterprice
that
he
trusted
to
haue
in
th
erldome
of
Poictou
.
For
if
the
kyng
of
Englande
had
perfetly
knowen
/
that
the
french
kyng
wolde
haue
made
hym
warr
/
he
wolde
right
well
haue
withstande
the
domage
that
he
had
after
in
Poitou
for
he
wolde
so
well
a
prouyded
for
the
good
towne
of
Abuyle
with
englysshmen
:
and
so
well
haue
furnysshed
all
other
garysons
in
the
said
countre
/
that
he
wolde
haue
ben
styll
souerayne
ouer
them
.
And
the
seneshall
of
the
same
countie
was
an
englysshman
/
called
sir
Nycolas
Louayng
/
who
was
in
good
fauour
with
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
as
he
was
worthy
.
For
he
was
so
true
:
that
to
be
drawen
with
wylde
horses
/
he
wolde
neuer
consent
to
any
shame
/
cowardnesse
/
or
villany
.
In
the
same
season
was
sent
into
Englande
/
th
erle
of
Salebruee
/
and
sir
Wyllm
of
Dorman
fro
the
frenche
kyng
/
to
speke
with
the
kyng
of
England
&
his
counsayle
/
she
wyng
to
them
howe
on
their
partie
the
peace
dayly
was
but
yuell
kept
/
aswell
by
reason
of
the
warr
that
the
companyons
had
made
all
this
sixe
yere
contynually
in
the
realm
of
France
/
as
by
dyuers
other
accydentes
/
wherof
the
frenche
kyng
was
enformed
:
and
nat
well
content
therwith
.
The
kyng
of
Englande
caused
these
ambassadours
to
tary
styll
in
England
the
space
of
two
monethes
/
and
in
the
same
space
they
declared
dyuers
artycles
often
tymes
to
the
kyng
/
wherof
the
kyng
was
sore
displeased
/
howbeit
they
set
lytell
ther
by
/
for
they
were
charged
by
the
french
kyng
&
his
counsayle
to
shewe
it
.
And
whan
the
french
kyng
had
secrete
and
certayne
knowlege
howe
they
within
Abuyle
wolde
become
french
/
and
that
the
warres
were
opyn
in
Gascone
/
&
howe
all
his
people
were
redy
aparelled
/
and
in
gode
wyll
to
make
warr
agaynst
the
prince
/
&
to
entre
in
to
the
principalyte
.
Howbeit
he
thought
as
than
to
haue
no
reproche
/
nor
in
tyme
to
come
to
be
sayd
of
hym
/
that
he
shuld
send
his
people
into
the
kyng
of
Englande
or
princes
lande
/
or
to
take
townes
/
cyties
/
castels
/
or
fortresses
without
defyance
:
wherfore
he
was
counselled
to
send
to
defy
the
kyng
of
England
.
And
so
he
dyd
by
his
letters
closed
/
and
a
breton
varlet
bare
them
.
And
whan
he
came
to
Douer
/
ther
he
founde
the
erle
of
Salebruce
/
&
sir
Wyllm
of
Dorman
/
returnyng
into
France
/
and
had
acomplysshed
their
message
/
to
whome
this
varlet
declared
parte
of
his
message
/
&
so
he
was
commaunded
to
do
.
And
whan
they
herde
that
/
they
departed
out
of
Englande
as
fast
as
they
might
&
passed
the
see
/
&
were
right
ioyfull
whan
they
were
aryued
at
Bolen
In
the
same
season
the
prince
had
sent
to
Rome
to
pope
Urbane
/
sir
Guysshard
Dangle
for
dyuers
maters
touchyng
Aquitayne
.
And
he
founde
the
pope
right
fauorable
in
all
his
sutes
/
&
so
returned
agayne
:
and
by
the
way
he
herde
howe
the
gascoyns
&
frenchmen
made
warr
agaynst
the
prince
/
&
howe
they
ouerran
the
pricipalyte
wherof
he
was
sore
abasshed
&
in
feare
how
he
might
returne
without
danger
.
Howbeit
he
came
to
the
gentyll
erle
of
Sauoy
whom
he
founde
in
Pyemont
in
the
towne
of
Pyneroll
/
for
he
made
warr
agaynst
the
marques
of
Saluces
.
The
erle
of
Sauoy
receyued
him
ioyously
&
all
his
company
/
&
kept
him
two
dayes
&
gaue
to
them
great
gyftes
/
&
specially
to
sir
Guysshard
Dangle
/
for
th
erle
greatly
honoured
him
bycause
of
his
noble
chinalry
.
And
so
whan
he
was
departed
&
aproched
nerer
to
the
bondes
of
Fraunce
&
of
Bolone
/
he
herde
euer
tidyngis
worse
&
worse
to
his
purpose
.
So
that
he
saw
well
in
that
case
that
he
was
in
/
he
coude
nat
returne
into
Guyen
/
he
was
to
well
knowen
.
Therfore
he
gaue
the
gouernance
of
his
company
to
a
knight
called
ser
iohn
I
sore
/
who
had
wedded
his
dought
/
he
was
a
good
frenchman
:
borne
in
the
marches
of
breten
.
So
he
toke
on
him
the
charge
to
conduct
home
his
father
in
lawes
company
/
and
he
went
into
the
lande
of
the
lorde
of
Beauieu
/
&
ther
he
passed
the
ryuer
of
Some
.
And
there
he
acquyted
hym selfe
so
with
the
lorde
of
Beauieu
/
that
he
brought
hym
and
all
his
company
to
Ryon
in
Auuerne
to
the
duke
of
Berry
/
and
ther
he
offerd
to
be
good
frenche
as
it
was
sayd
/
so
that
he
myght
be
brought
peasably
to
his
owne
house
into
Bretayne
.
And
his
father
in
lawe
ser
Guys
shard
Dangle
/
disgysed
hym selfe
lyke
a
poore
preest
/
yuell
horsed
and
arrayed
:
and
so
passed
by
Fraunce
/
the
marchesse
of
Burgoyne
and
of
Auuerne
.
And
dyde
somoche
with
great
payne
that
he
entred
into
the
pricipalyte
/
and
came
to
Angoleme
to
the
price
/
wher
he
was
right
welcome
:
and
another
knight
that
went
with
him
to
Rome
/
called
sir
Wyllm
of

/
for
feare
.
As
he
came
homwarde
he
came
to
the
abbey
of

/
and
ther
taryed
more
than
fyue

after
/
and
durst
neuer
go

of
the
house
.
And
yet
at
last
he
yelded
hymsefe
french
.
Nowe
let
vs
retourne
to
the
breton
that
brought
the
frenche
kyngis
defyance
to
the
kyng
of
England
.
¶
How
the
defyance
was
delyuered
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
and
howe
the
erle
of
saynt
Poule
and
the
lorde
of
Chastellon
/
conquered
th
erldome
of
Poictou
.
Cap.
CC
.xlvii.
THis
foresayd
varlet
dyde
so
moche
that
he
came
to
London
/
and
vnderstode
how
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
was
at
Westm
/
holdynge
there
a
great
counsayle
for
the
princes
warres
/
bytwene
hym
&
the
barons
and
knightes
of
Gascone
/
to
se
how
it
shulde
be
maynteyned
:
and
what
men
shulde
be
sent
out
of
England
to
ayde
hym
.
And
than
ther
came
to
them
other
newe
tidynges
/
the
whiche
made
than
to
haue
other
busynesse
than
they
had
before
.
For
this
frenche
varlet
dyd
somoch
that
he
entred
into
the
chambre
wher
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
was
/
and
sayd
howe
he
was
a
varlet
sent
by
the
french
kyng
/
&
had
brought
letters
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
.
And
so
kneled
downe
to
the
kyng
/
and
offred
hym
the
letters
.
And
the
kynge
who
greatly
desyred
to
knowe
what
they
ment
:
caused
them
to
be
receyued
opyned
/
and
reed
.
¶
Than
the
kyng
and
all
his
consayle
had
great
maruell
therof
/
whan
they
vnderstode
the
defyance
/
and
behelde
well
the
seale
and
sigue
:
and
sawe
clerely
howe
it
was
of
authorite
.
Than
they
caused
the
varlet
to
departe
/
sayeng
to
hym
howe
he
hadde
right
well
done
his
message
.
Wherfore
he
might
departe
whan
he
wolde
/
he
shulde
haue
no
let
/
and
so
he
returned
assone
as
he
might
.
The
same
season
ther
were
styll
in
England
hostagers
/
the
erle
Dolphyn
of
Auuergne
/
th
erle
of
Porseen
/
the
lorde
of
Mallurer
and
dyuers
other
who
wer
in
great
heuynes
of
hert
whan
they
herde
those
tidynges
/
for
they
knewe
nat
what
the
kyng
wolde
do
with
them
.
The
kyng
and
his
counsayle
had
great
dispyte
that
a
varlet
shulde
thus
bringe
his
defyance
/
and
sayd
howe
it
was
nothyng
aꝑtenant
that
the
warr
bytwene
two
such
gret
princes
/
as
the
kyng
of
Englande
and
the
frenche
king
/
shulde
be
publysshed
by
a
varlet
.
they
thought
it
had
ben
more
metely
that
it
shulde
haue
ben
done
by
a
prelat
/
or
by
some
valyant
man
baron
or
knyght
:
how beit
they
sawe
there
was
no
remedy
.
Than
they
counsayled
the
kyng
that
incontynent
he
shulde
sende
a
great
army
in
to
Poyctou
/
to
kepe
the
fronters
ther
/
and
specially
to
the
towne
of
Abuyle
/
the
whiche
was
in
great
danger
of
lesyng
.
The
kyng
was
content
so
to
do
/
and
so
ther
was
apoynted
to
go
thyder
/
the
lorde
Percy
/
the
lorde
Neuyll
/
the
lorde
of
Carbeston
/
and
sir
Wyllm
of
Wynsore
with
.
CCC
men
/
and.
M.
archers
.
And
in
the
mean
season
whyle
these
lordes
made
them
redy
/
and
were
come
to
Douer
to
passe
the
see
/
ther
came
other
tidynges
out
of
Poictou
/
the
which
were
nothyng
ioyfull
.
For
assone
as
th
erle
Guy
of
s
.
Poule
/
and
sir
Guy
of
Chastellon
/
who
were
as
than
maisters
of
the
crosbowes
of
France
/
thought
by
all
likelyhod
/
that
the
kyng
of
Englande
was
defyed
.
Than
they
drue
toward
Poictou
/
and
had
sent
secretly
their
commaundement
to
the
knightes
&
squiers
of
Artoyse
/
Heynalt
/
Cambresis
/
Uermādose
/
Uyen
/
and
Picardy
that
they
shuldꝭ
incontynent
come
to
them
/
and
so
they
dyde
/
to
the
nombre
of
sixscore
speares
:
&
came
to
Abuyle
.
And
they
set
vpon
the
gates
/
for
it
was
so
determyned
before
/
and
so
the
men
of
warre
entred
without
doyng
of
any
hurt
/
to
any
of
them
of
the
towne
.
Than
sir
Hewe
of
Chastelon
/
who
was
chefe
leder
of
these
men
of
warr
/
went
streyght
wher
as
he
thought
to
fynde
the
seneshall
of
Poictou
ser
Nicolas
Louayng
/
&
dyd
somoche
that
he
founde
him
/
&
toke
him
prisoner
.
Also
they
toke
a
riche
clerke
&
a
valyant
man
tresourer
of
Poitou
.
So
that
day
the
frenchmen
toke
many
a
riche
prisoner
/
&
th
englisshmen
lost
all
that
they
had
in
the
towne
of
Abuyle
.
And
the
same
day
the
frenchemen
ran
to
saynt
Ualery
/
and
entred
therin
and
toke
it
and
Crotay
:
and
also
the
towne
of
Derne
on
the
see
syde
.
And
anone
after
came
the
erle
of
saynt
Poule
to
the
bridge
of
saynt
Remey
/
on
the
ryuer
of
Somme
/
whervnto
ther
were
certayne
englysshmen
withdrawen
.
The
erle
assayled
them
/
and
there
was
a
great
scrymysshe
/
and
many
noble
dedes
of
armes
done
and
atcheued
.
And
th
erle
made
knight
ther
Galetan
his
eldest
sonne
/
who
dyde
that
day
right
nobly
/
but
th
englysshmen
were
ther
so
sore
assayled
/
that
finally
they
were
discomfyted
/
slayne
and
takefie
:
and
the
bridge
and
forteresse
also
.
And
brefely
to
speke
/
all
the
countre
and
countie
of
Poictou
was
clene
delyuered
fro
th
englysshmen
/
so
that
none
abode
ther
to
do
any
hurte
to
the
countre
.
The
tidynges
came
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
to
London
howe
they
of
Poyctou
had
forsaken
hym
/
and
were
become
frenche
:
Wherwith
he
was
ryght
sore
displeased
/
&
had
many
a
harde
ymaginacyon
agaynst
the
hostagers
of
France
/
that
were
styll
with
him
at
London
.
Howe beit
he
thought
it
shulde
be
a
great
crueltie
/
if
he
shulde
bewreke
his
displeasur
on
them
.
yet
he
sent
the
burgesses
of
cyties
&
good
townes
of
Fraunce
/
whome
he
had
in
hostage
:
into
dyuers
townes
and
fortresses
in
Englande
/
and
kept
them
more
strayter
and
harder
than
they
were
kepte
before
.
And
th
erle
dolphyne
of
Auuergne
/
was
raunsomed
at
.xxx.
thousande
frankes
/
and
th
erle
Porseen
at
.x.
thousand
frankes
/
and
the
lorde
of
Roy
was
kept
styll
in
prison
in
great
daunger
/
for
he
was
nat
well
beloued
with
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
nor
with
none
of
his
courte
.
Wherfore
it
behoued
hym
to
endure
moche
sorowe
&
trouble
/
vntyll
suche
season
as
he
was
delyuered
by
great
fortune
&
aduenture
:
as
ye
shall
here
after
in
this
hystorie
.
¶
Howe
the
kyng
of
Englande
sent

And

And

and
dyd
fayth
and
homage
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
who
was
ryght
gladde
of
his

.
Thus
the
knyghtes
and
squiers
turned
theyr
copies
on
both
partes
.
And
the
duke
of
Anion
had
so
procured

and
had
taken

and
distroyed
all

Thus
the

turned
some
to
the
one
parte

some
to

so
that
they
were

/
to
treate
with
the
kyng
for
acquitaunce
/
and
the
messangers
dyd
so
well
their
deuour
/
that
the
kynge
of
Englande
(
who
thought
none
euyl
)
quited
the
erle
of
Flaunders
of
all
his
couenauntes
/
as
touchynge
the
mariage
of
his
doughter
.
and
so
these
messangers
returned
to
Bruges
/
and
shewed
the
erle
their
lorde
howe
they
had
spedde
/
Wher
of
he
was
ryght
ioyfull
.
And
it
was
nat
longe
after
but
that
the
mariage
of
the
duke
of
Bourgoyn
&
their
erles
doughter
was
driuen
through
and
agreed
.
And
it
was
shewed
me
that
for
this
mariage
the
erle
of
Flaunders
had
more
than
fyfty
thousande
frankes
/
and
the
towne
of
Doway
and
Lisle
delyuered
in
gage
for
money
/
that
the
frenche
kynge
gaue
with
thys
maryage
to
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
Who
toke
possessyon
of
them
/
and
therin
dyd
putte
his
people
.
And
so
these
two
townes
were
attributed
to
Flaunders
by
reason
of
gage
/
as
it
was
shewed
me
/
I
can
say
no
further
.
And
anone
after
this
composicion
they
proceded
to
the
mariage
/
the
whiche
was
done
and
confirmed
in
the
towne
of
Gaunt
and
there
was
great
feaste
and
solempnyte
the
day
of
the
maryage
and
after
.
Ther
were
many
lordes
/
barones
/
and
knyghtes
/
and
specially
the
gentyl
lorde
of
Coucy
/
who
was
sent
thither
by
the
frenche
kynge
/
euery
man
was
greatly
feasted
with
great
iustes
and
tryumphes
.
And
after
euery
man
wense
Whom
to
his
owne
.
And
whan
the
kynge
of
Englande
sawe
that
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
bycause
of
this
sayde
maryage
was
alyed
into
Fraunce
/
he
wyste
●at
What
to
suppose
/
Whether
that
the
Erle
of
Flaunders
wolde
take
parte
agaynst
hym
with
the
duke
of
Bourgoyne
his
sonne
in
lawe
/
who
by
succession
shulde
be
his
heyre
after
his
disceace
ornat
.
Nor
also
he
myste
nat
what
rou●nauntes
were
〈◊〉
b●twene
the
frenche
kynge
and
the
erle
of
Flaunders
.
Wherfore
the
kynge
of
Englande
was
more
harder
to
the
Flemmynges
than
he
was
before
/
bothe
by
lande
and
by
see
/
as
they
came
in
marchandise
.
Wherof
the
frenche
kynge
was
nothynge
displeased
.
for
he
wolde
gladly
that
the
Warre
hadde
ben
open
bitwene
the
englisshemen
and
flemmynges
.
Howe
be
it
the
wise
men
of
Flaunders
and
bourgesses
of
good
tow
●es
had
no
wyl
to
the
warre
:
for
the
comynalte
of
Flaunders
/
susteyned
rather
the
opinion
and
quarell
of
the
kynge
of
Englande
to
be
better
/
than
the
frenche
kynges
.
The
kynge
of
Englande
/
who
sought
for
frendes
in
all
parties
/
as
●ede
was
for
hym
so
to
do
/
seynge
the
great
warres
and
rebellions
that
dayly
rose
agaynst
hym
.
than
he
vnderstode
well
that
kyng
Charles
of
Nauarr
his
cosyn
/
who
was
in
base
Nor
mandy
/
wolde
soone
agree
to
his
accord
/
for
he
was
behated
with
the
frenche
kynge
/
bicause
of
certayn
landes
that
he
kept
/
and
claymed
them
as
his
enheritance
/
the
whiche
the
frenche
kyng
d●n●ed
:
for
the
whiche
theyr
counsayles
had
ben
often
tymes
to
guether
:
But
they
coulde
neuer
make

bitwene
them
/
and
so
the
mat●er
hanged
styll
/
eche
of
them
takyng
good
hede
of
other
.
And
the
kynge
of
Nauarre
fortifyed
greatly
his
townes
and
castels
in
Constantine
and
in
the
countie
of
Deureur
/
and
in
the
good
townes
of
Normandye
/
and
helde
hymselfe
at
Ch●erburge
and
had
men
of
warr
in
euery
garison
.
And
with
hym
there
was
ser
Eustace
Dā●●er●court
who
was
gouernour

for
it
was
parcell
of
his

called
the
towne

And
this
syr
●ustace
was
chief
of
the
kynges
counsaile
and
the
kynge
of
Englande
sent
vnto
hym
(
for
he
was
also
hisman
and
knyght
)
to
the
entent
that
he
shulde
knowe
the
kynge
of
Nauarres
mv●de
.
And
this
knyght
dyd
so
moche
that
the
kynge
of
Nauarre
with
a
pr●uy
company
entred
into
a
shyppe
called
Ly●
/
and
came
to
the
kynge

England
/
who
made
hym
great

and
feast

and
so
they
were
longe

and
fynally
concluded

that

And
whan

So
the

they
wolde

whiche

ANone
after

was
departed
on
his

fro

ser
John
Chandos
and
ser
Roberte

syr
Thomas
Phelton
/
the
Captall
of
Beufz
ser
James
Audeley
/
and
the
other
knyghtes
and
squiers
went
to
counsayle
and
concluded
to
breke
vp
their
siege
/
for
they
perceyued
well
howe
they
coude
geat
nothyng
there
/
and
determined
to
go
further
into
the
countrey
/
and
to
wynne
townes
and
garisons
suche
as
were
newly
turned
frenche
/
by
the
exhortyng
of
the
duke
of
Berrey
.
So
thus
these
knyghtes
dislodged
/
and
departed
fro
Domme
/
&
went
to
Gauaches
/
the
whiche
incontinent
yelded
vp
to
them
/
and
became
englisshe
/
and
there
they
rested
them
a
.iii.
dayes
/
and
toke
counsayle
/
what
they
shuld
do
further
.
And
whan
they
departed
they
went
to
a
fortresse
/
the
whiche
the
frenche
companyons
had
newely
taken
/
called
Foins
/
but
as
soone
as
they
within
the
fortresse
sawe
the
englisshemen
come
to
them
with
suche
a
puisaunce
/
and
that
Gauaches
was
gyuen
vp
to
them
/
they
also
yelded
vp
theyr
fortresse
/
and
became
englisshe
/
and
so
sware
alwayes
to
continue
:
but
yet
they
wer
forsworne
/
as
ye
shal
here
after
.
Than
the
englisshemen
passed
forth
/
and
came
before
Rochmador
.
the
garison
was
but
easely
fortified
/
and
yet
they
with
i
thought
nat
to
yeld
vp
the
fortresse
.
So
whan
the
englisshemen
came
to
the
towne
/
and
wel
aduised
the
maner
of
them
within
/
than
they
set
forth
theyr
artyllarie
/
and
gaue
assaute
in
good
ordre
/
&
many
wer
hurt
with
shotte
/
both
within
and
without
/
the
whiche
assaute
endured
a
hole
day
/
and
at
nyght
the
englisshemen
withdrewe
to
theyr
lodgynges
/
and
were
in
mynde
to
assayle
it
agayne
the
next
day
:
but
the
same
night
they
within
toke
counsaile
together
/
and
perceyued
wel
howe
they
were
sorely
assauted
/
and
the
mooste
wysest
of
them
sayd
/
howe
at
length
they
coude
nat
endure
/
and
if
they
were
taken
by
force
they
shulde
all
dye
/
and
the
towne
brent
and
spoyled
without
mercy
.
So
all
thynges
considered
the
good
and
the
euyll
:
they
fell
in
treatie
to
yelde
them
vp
to
the
englisshemen
.
So
they
agreed
that
fro
that
daye
forth
they
shulde
become
englisshe
/
and
that
to
fulfyll
they
made
solempne
othes

beside
that
at

they
to

at
a
certayn

set
amonge
them
.
And
thus
Rochmador
abode
styll
in
rest
.
And
than
the
englisshemen
passed
forth
towarde
Uille
Franche
in
Tholosain
/
wastynge
and
distroyenge
the
countrey
/
puttyng
the
pore
people
into

miserie
/
conquerynge
townes
and
castels
/
that
were
newely
turned
frenche
/
some
by
force
and
some
by
treatye
/
and
at
last
they
came
to
Uille
Franche
/
the
whiche
was
well
purueyed
of
all
maner
of
vitayle
&
artyllarie
/
for
al
the
playne
countrey
was
drawen
thither
.
and
there
they
besieged
the
towne
So
that
within
foure
dayes
they
gaue
many
a
great
assaute

werby
dyuers
were
hurte
bothe
within

All

coude
nat

nor
they
knewe
of
no

So
than
by
composicion
they
became
englisshe

so
that
they
shuld

So
thus
Uile
franche
became
englisshe

wherof
the
duke
of

who
lay

was
sore

he
coude

Sir

Nowe

toke
by

IN
the
meane
season
while
that
the
barones
and
knightes
of
Englande
made
their
iourneys
aswell
in
Rouergue
&
Quercy
/
as
in
Agenoyse
.
the
siege
al
that
season
endured
styll
before
the
garyson
of
Bourdeill
/
the
whiche
was
the
space
of
a
.xi.
wekes
.
In
the
whiche
season
there
were
many
●autes
/
skrymysshes
/
and
feates
of
armes
done
and
acheued
nygh
euery
day
.
For
most
comonly
daily
they
within
wold
come
with
al
theyr
power
to
the
barriers
of
theyr
towne
without
the
gate
and
valiauntly
skrymysshe
there
with
all
commers
.
And
bare
them selfe
so
proprely
that
they
were
praysed
of
all
the
ooste
without
.
Thus
in
this
estate
they
endured
a
great
season
/
and
by
likelyhod
longer
had
done
if
pryde
and
presumpcion
hadde
nat
been
.
For
they
were
men
●●owe
/
and
ryght
hardy
and
well
fournysshed
with
vitailes
and
artillary
:
and
they
of
the
oste
without
beganne
to
ware
werie
/
and
sawe
wel
howe
they
laye
there
at
theyr
great
cooste
and
charge
/
and
wanne
but
lytell
.
And
so
on
a
day
they
toke
theyr
counsayle
howe
to
maynteyne
theyr
siege
/
and
to
aproche
the
towne
.
And
ther
they
concluded
/
that
the
next
day
in
the
mornyng
they
shulde
be
all
armed
/
and
so
kepe
them selfe
in
their
lodgynges
secretly
/
and
to
sende
a
certayne
nombre
to
skrymysshe
with
them
within
for
they
thought
welle
/
that
they
within
wolde
issue
out
on
them
as
they
Were
accustomed
to
do
.
And
so
whan
they
had
fought
a
while
than
to
returne
agayne
/
and
to
make
semblaunt
as
though
they
fledde
/
to
the
entent
to
drawe
their
ennemyes
out
of
the
fortresse
.
And
than
they
ordeyned
to
haue
a
nombre
of
horsemen
redye
to
come
in
bitwene
them
and
the
towne
to
stop
them
whan
they
wolde
returne
.
And
so
on
this
appoyntment
they
concluded
/
sayenge
/
that
yf
they
had
it
nat
by
that
meanes
/
they
shulde
nat
geat
the
towne
easely
none
other
wayes
.
And
so
in
the
nexte
mornynge
yerly
/
they
caused
all
theyr
people
to
be
armed
/
and
sente
a.
CC.
to
the
towne
to
skrymysshe
.
And
whan
the
capitaynes
within
/
as
Erualdon
and
Bernardya
/
sawe
them
come
/
they
were
ryght
ioyous
/
and
armed
them
and
al
theyr
company
.
They
were
a
.vii.
score
yonge
and
lusty
companyons
/
and
so
opened
theyr
gate
and
came
to
their
barriers
and
there
encountred
theyr
ennemies
right
fyersly
.
And
so
at
laste
the
englysshemen
reculed
back
for
the
nones
.
And
whan
they
within
saw
that
/
they
issued
out
with
theyr
standardꝭ
/
and
said
.
Let
vs
auaunce
after
them
/
for
surely
they
are
all
oures
.
And
so
they
folowed
after
so
fiersly
/
and
the
fleers
fledde
so
fayntely
/
that
some
were
ouerthrowen
and
taken
prisoners
.
and
bicause
they
wolde
haue
all
/
they
had
but
lytel
.
for
it
is
an
olde
sayenge
/
He
that
all
coueteth
/
al
leseth
.
So
these
companyons
folowed
so
farre
fro
theyr
fortresse
/
that
whan
they
Wolde
haue
returned
/
they
coude
nat
.
For
than
ser
John
Montague
(
who
kept
the
busshment
with
a

hundred
fyghtyng
men
/
and
was
made
knight
the
same
tyme
by
the
erle
of
Cambridge
)
Ther
he
encountred
his
enemies
.
And
whan
they
of
Bour
deill
sawe
that
:
than
they
knewe
well
that
they
had
foolysshely
aduentured
them selfe
.
How
be
it
they
drewe
to gether
lyke
valiaunt
men
/
and
fought
/
and
dyd
ther
feates
of
armes
meruaile
to
record

and
so
helde
them selfe
vndiscomfitted
the
space
of

houres
styll
fyghtynge
with
theyr
enemies
/
doynge
suche
dedes
of

that
the
englysshemen
toke
great
pleasaunce
at
theyr
valiant
dedes
.
And
syr
John
Montague
was
that
day
a
good
knyght
and
a
valiant
.
Finally
they
of
Bourdeill
were
all
discomfited
slayn
or
taken
/
so
that
none
skaped
/
and
the
englisshe
prisoners
reskewed
agayn
/
and
Erualdon
and
Bernardyn
of
Batefoll
Capitaynes
were
taken

And
in

meane
season
while
this
skrymysshe
was

the
erle

and
th
erle
of
Penbroke
were
auaunced
to
the
barriers
and
conquered
them
/
and
the
gate
also
.
And
so
the
erle
of
Cambridge
baner
entred
into
the
forttes
.
Thus
the
englissemen
had
the
garison
of
Bourdeill
/
&
caused
all
the
men
of
the
towne
to
swere
fayth
and
trouth
to
kepe

And
ther
they
made

And

concluded
to

Thus

These

alone
/
without

THe

Wherof

And
the

.
And
euery
weke

he
wolde

se
his

:
he
had
so
great

.
And
besyde
that
his

was
so

in

that
it

And
dayly

pruisyon
came

Howebeit

.
Sayeng
/
howe
they
were
nat
so
well
accustomed
to
make
warr
/
as

And
alleged
therto
dyuers
reasons

breke

but
that

The
king
of
England
and
his

the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
and
dyuers
of
his
counsell
were
well
enformed
of
this
army
and
viage
/
how
the
frenchmen
wolde
come

in

wherof
they

And

the
portes
and
passages
on
the
see
agaynst
Poictou
&
Normandy
/
to
receyue
them
if

And
all
the
realme
of
Englande
was
fully
determyned
to
fight
with
them
/
if
they
wolde
come
into
the

Than
the

England
was
counsayled
to
send

And

they

&
arryued

of

and

And
sir

who
had
ben
alwayes

answered
&
said
:
that
he

So

And
so
they

They

all

of

:
ser

and
whan
they
were
all

togyder
/
they
were
mo
than
thre
thousand
speares
.
And
they
departed
/
and
rode
so
long
that
they
came
to
the
castell
of

the
whiche

strong
and
well
kept
and
well
prouyded
for

with

purueyance

And
the
capitayne
ther
set

/
was
called
sir
Johan
Blōdeau
:
who
had
vnder
him
many
good
companions
/
at
the
cost
and
charge
of
the

.
Than
the

about
the
castell
in

/
and
they
made
to
be

besyde

that
they

And
they

ynough
/
for
ther
came
plentie

them
fro
Poyctou
/
and
fro
the
marchesse
adioynynge
.
And
whan
sir
Johan
Bloudeau
sawe
howe
he
was
besiged
/
with
so
many
good
men
of
warr
for
ther
were
nighe
all
the
barons
and
knyghtes
of
Acquitayne
.
And
perceyued
well
howe
there
was
no
conforte
nor
ayde
comyng
towarde
hym
fro
no
parte
:
he
began
than
to
be
afrayed
/
for
he
sawe
well
the
lordes
that
were
ther
wold
nat
departe
/
tyll
they
had
won
the
castell
/
other
byforce
or
otherwyse
.
And
in
the
erle
of
Cambridge
company
/
and
in
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
there
were
byuers
knyghtes
that
were
well
acquaynted
with
the
capitayne
/
&
had
ben
in
his
company
in
tyme
passed
.
And
they
came
to
the
barryers
/
and
dyde
so
moche
on
their
promyse
and
assurance
/
that
they
spake
with
hym
:
and
handeled
him
in
suche
wyse
(
for
he
was
nat
subtell
/
howbeit
he
was
a
good
knight
)
that
he
rendred
vp
the
castell
:
if
he
were
nat
rescued
with
in
the
space
of
a
moneth
/
and
than
he
to
haue
.vi.
thousande
frankes
/
for
the
purueyaunces
with
in
the
castell
.
And
so
by
this
treaty
they
without
to
abyde
styll
in
suertie
/
without
makyng
of
any
warr
of
bothe
parties
/
duryng
the
terme
of
the
sayd
composicyon
:
&
if
they
were
nat
rescued
within
the
same
terme
as
aforesayd
/
than
they
to
rendre
vp
the
castell
.
This
treaty
thus
concluded
/
the
capitayne
within
signifyed
the
mater
to
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
and
to
the
french
kynge
/
to
the
duke
of
Berry
/
and
to
all
other
lordes
by
whome
he
thought
to
be
ayded
/
to
th
entent
that
he
might
the
better
be
excused
fro
blame
:
if
any
reproch
after
were
layd
to
his
charge
/
But
for
all
his
sendyng
/
&
that
the
castell
was
fayre
and
stronge
/
and
right
necessary
to
be
frenche
/
for
the
countrey
of
Aniou
/
and
Tourayne
.
yet
for
all
that
:
they
had
nother
rescue
nor
confort
.
So
that
assone
as
the
moneth
was
passed
and
expyred
/
the
englysshe
lordes
desyred
the
capytayne
to
kepe
his
promyse
:
and
also
he
had
delyuered
good
pledges
so
to
do
.
Than
the
sayd
capitayne
sayd
to
his
company
.
Sirssyth
the
frenche
kyng
and
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
woll
wylfully
lese
this
fortresse
/
we
can
nat
kepe
it
alone
without
we
be
ayded
.
And
so
ther
he
yelded
vp
the
castell
:
and
th
englysshmen
toke
possessyon
therof
/
and
were
right
gladde
therof
/
and
they
delyuered
to
the
capitayne
.vi.
thousande
frankes
/
for
suche
prouisyons
as
were
within
the
castell
.
And
he
and
all
his
company
were
surely
conneyed
to
the
towne
of
Angyers
.
And
assone
as
he
was
come
thyder
/
he
was
arested
by
the
gouernour
of
the
towne
/
and
put
in
to
the
castell
in
prison
.
And
as
I
herd
say
/
in
a
night
he
was
put
into
a
sacke
/
and
cast
into
the
ryuer
&
drowned
:
by
the
strayte
commaundement
of
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
bycause
he
toke
golde
and
syluer
/
for
the
delyerance
of
the
castell
/
the
whiche
was
able
of
it selfe
/
to
haue
be
kept
the
space
of
a
yere
/
if
nede
had
so
reqred
.
Thus
th
englysshmen
had
in
possessyon
/
the
castell
of
Roche
sur
yone
in
Aniou
/
and
ther
they
set
a
great
garison
/
and
repeyred
the
castell
sufficiently
.
And
than
they
returned
agayne
to
Angoleme
to
the
prince
/
and
some
of
them
toke
leaue
&
departed
to
their
owne
houses
/
and
sir
James
Audeley
that
valyant
knight
/
&
seneshall
as
than
of
Poictou
/
went
&
lay
at
Font
neythe
countie
.
And
there
he
fell
sicke
of
a
sore
malady
/
so
that
therby
at
length
he
dyed
/
wherof
the
prince
&
princesse
were
right
soroufull
/
and
in
lykewise
all
the
barons
and
knightes
of
Poictou
.
And
his
obsequy
was
solemply
done
in
the
cytie
of
Poicters
/
the
prince
beyng
ther
personally
.
And
anone
after
at
the
request
of
the
barons
and
knightes
of
Poicton
sir
John
Chandos
/
who
was
as
than
constable
of
Aquitayne
was
made
seneshall
of
Poictou
.
And
so
he
went
and
say
in
the
cyte
of
Poiters
/
and
he
made
of
/
ten
yssues
and
iourneys
agaynst
the
frenchmen
and
helde
them
so
shorte
that
they
durst
nat
ryde
but
in
great
routes
and
companies
.
In
the
same
season
was
delyuered
out
of
prison
/
the
vycont
of
Rochchoart
/
whome
the
prince
had
kepte
in
prisone
/
bycause
he
was
had
in
suspect
to

WHan
the
duke
of
Lancastre
was
come
to
Calays
/
as
ye
haue
herde
before
:
and
had
well
refresshed
him
&
his
people
ther.
Than
he
thought
nat
to
lye
ther
in
ydelnesse
/
but
rather
to
do
some
dedes
of
armes
in
France
.
And
for
that
intent
he
departed
fro
Calays
on
a
day
with
thre
hundred
speares
/
and
as
many
archers
:
&
so
passed
besyde
Guynes
/
and
rode
so
long
tyll
he
passed
the
ryuer
of
Ostre
/
&
ther
spred
abrode
in
the
countre
/
and
toke
their
way
towarde
the
abbey
of
Lynques
and
ther
toke
a
great
pray
and
ledde
it
to
Calys
.
And
another
day
they
toke
another
way
and
went
towardes
Boloyne
/
&
dyde
great
domage
to
the
playne
countre
.
and
the
same
tyme
th
erle
Guy
of
saynt
Poule
and
sir
Galeran
his
sofie
/
with
a
certayne
nombre
of
men
of
warr
lay
in
the
cytie
of
Turwyn
/
but
they
yssued
nat
out
for
all
they
herde
that
th englisshmen
rode
abrode
in
the
countre
/
for
they
thought
them selfe
nat
able
to
fight
with
them
/
nor
to
kepe
the
felde
agaynst
them
.
A
none
tidynges
came
to
the
frenche
kyng
where
as
he
lay
at
Roane
/
and
had
made
a
great
assemble
/
as
ye
haue
herde
before
.
Howe
the
duke
of
Lancastre
was
come
to
Calais
/
and
howe
dayly
/
he
and
his
men
made
rodes
and
yssues
in
to
France
.
Whan
the
frenche
kyng
herde
that
/
bothe
he
and
his
counsayle
had
newe
ymaginacions
/
and
the
same
weke
it
was
determyned
that
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
shulde
haue
taken
the
see
to
haue
gone
into
England
.
Than
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
debated
/
what
was
best
to
do
in
that
case
:
other
to
go
and
fight
with
th
englysshmen
that
were
on
that
syde
the
see
/
or
els
to
kepe
forthe
their
iorney
into
England
.
And
so
ther
it
was
fermely
concluded
:
that
euery
man
shulde
dysloge
and
to
make
them
redy
to
go
towarde
Calays
with
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
.
And
so
their
first
purpose
was
broken
/
for
they
were
determyned
to
go
and
fight
with
thenglysshemen
on
that
syde
the
see
/
wherof
euery
man
was
glad
and
aparelled
themselve
.
And
the
duke
of
Burgone
departed
and
all
his
company
/
and
toke
his
way
to
passe
the
ryuer
of
Some
at
Abuyle
:
&
dyde
so
moche
by
his
iourneys
that
he
came
to
Muttrell
/
at
Hedyn
/
and
at
saynt
Poule
/
&
ther
about
the
french
men
abode
eche
other
.
Than
it
was
shewed
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
how
the
frenchmen
aproched
nere
to
him
to
fight
/
wherof
he
was
glad
&
was
yssued
out
of
Calais
for
that
intent
/
&
toke
his
felde
in
the
valey
of
Tornehen
.
And
he
had
nat
ben
ther
long
/
but
that
the
gentyll
knight
ser
Robert
of
Namur
came
thyder
to
serue
him
with
a
hundred
speares
well
furnysshed
/
of
whose
comyng
the
duke
of
Lancastre
was
right
ioyfull
and
sayd
to
him
.
A
my
fayre
and
dere
vncle
:
ye
be
right
hartely
welcome
.
Sir
it
is
shewed
vs
howe
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
aprocheth
sore
to
fight
with
vs
.
Sir
qd
he
in
goddes
name
so
be
it
we
wolde
gladly
se
him
.
Thus
thēglysshmen
were
loged
in
the
vale
of
Tornehen
/
and
fortefyed
their
campe
with
strong
hedges
/
and
dayly
ther
came
prouisyon
to
them
from
Calais
/
and
their
currors
ran
ouer
the
countie
of
Guyens
for
forage
and
other
vitayls
/
but
lytell
they
gat
there
:
for
all
the
playne
countre
was
distroyed
and
lost
before
/
and
euery
thynge
had
in
to
fortresses
.
Than
came
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
and
his
company
/
and
lodged
on
the
hyll
of
Tornehen
/
agaynst
the
englysshmen
.
The
frenchmen
lodged
them
in
good
order
&
toke
a
great
space
of
grounde
/
for
as
I
herde
say
:
the
duke
of
burgoyne
had
ther
with
him

mo
than
foure
thousande
knightes
.
Consydre
than
/
if

nat
a

Thus
they
were
ech
agaynst
other
a
long
space
without
any
thyng
doynge
/
for
though
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
had
that
great
nombre

sawe
that
ther
was
with
hym
of
good
men
of

seuyn
agaynst
one
of
the
englisshmen
:
yet
for
all
that
he
wolde
nat
fight
without
leaue
of
the
kyng
his
brother
/
who
was
nat
in
mynde
that
he
shuld
fight
.
And
yet
of
trouthe
/
yf
the
frenchmen
had
set
forwarde
to
haue
fought
/
the
englysshmen
wolde
nat
haue
refused
them
:
for
they
were
redy
euery
daye
to
receyue
them
in
good
order
.
Euery
man
fully
determyned
what
they
shulde
do
/
if
they
dyd
yssue
out
:
but
bycause
they
were
so
fewe
in
nombre
/
and
that
they
were
in
so
strong
a
place
/
they
thought
nat
to
departe
nysely
oute
of
their
aduantage
.
And
sundrie
tymes
dyuers
on
bothe
parties
wolde
yssue
and
scrimysshe
/
and
somtyme
wanne
and
somtyme

as
chaunce
often
falleth
in

In

was
greatly
inclyned
to
the
honoure

who
lay

newly
buylded

And
often
harde
tidynges
from
the

from

by

comynge

alwayes

For

He

Of

company
was
sir
Bauden
of
Fanuyll
seneshall
of
Xaynton
/
sir
Thomas
Percy
/
sir
Thomas
Spenser
/
sir
Dangoses
/
sir
Johan
Ornych
/
sir
John
Herpedan
/
sir
James

/
sir
Johan

sir

Albyn

sir
Robert
Twyforde
/
sir
Symon
Ausagre
/
sir
John
of
Mortayne
/
sir
John
Couchet
/
and
dyuers
other
.
Thus
these
englysshmen
and
poyctenyns
rode
forthe
with
out
dismay
/
and
herde
no
maner
of
tidynges
of
any
men
of
warr
/
and
so
with
great
pyllage
&
praye
entred
agayne
in
to
Poyctou
.
And
on
a
day
they
came
about
hye
noone
to
a
village
called
Puiernon
/
&
toke
their
lodgynge
/
wenyng
to
them
to
be
in
surety
:
and
there
varlettis
we●●
settyng
vp
of
their
horses
and
dressing
of
their
supper
.
Than
sodenly
the
frenchmen
who
were
well
aduysed
of
that
they
shulde
do
/
came
in
to
the
towne
their
speares
in
the
reest
/
and
cryed
their
cryes
/
our
lady
of
Sanxere
for
the
marshall
of
Fraunce
.
And
so
they
beate
downe
on
euery
syde
the
englysshmen
in
the
st●etes
/
and
in
the
houses
/
and
so
the
noyse
was
so
gret
that
it
reysed
men
vp
in
great
affray
/
for
they
were
sodenly
taken
.
The
noyse
came
to
th
erle
of
Pembroke
/
to
sir
Thomas
Percy
/
sir
Thomas
Frāuyll
/
and
to
the
other
knightes
:
howe
the
frenchmen
wer
come
and
assayled
them
.
Than
these
lordes
went
out
of
their
lodgynges
and
assembled
their
companyes
togyder
/
but
they
coulde
nat
drawe
all
togyder
/
for
the
frenchmen
were
so
stronge
/
that
the
englysshmen
coulde
nat
endure
them
.
So
at
the
first
brunt
/
ther
were
taken
and
slayne
mo
than
sixscore
:
so
that
the
erle
hadde
no
remedy
but
to
withdrawe
him
assone
as
he
might
/
in
to
a
place
of
the
templers
closed
with
stone
walles
.
And
so
there
the
erle
and
suche
as
were
with
him
entred
into
the
place
/
and
the
resydue
were
taken
and
slayne
/
and
moost
parte
of
their
harnesse
and
horses
were
loste
.
And
ther
the
erle
of
Penbroke
lost
all
his
baggage
and
richesse
.
And
whanne
the
frenchemen
knewe
that
they
were
in
that
place
/
they
were
therof
right
ioyouse
.
Sayeng
amonge
theym selfe
▪
they
can
nat
scape
vs
/
they
are
all
oures
.
They
shall
nowe
derely
abye
the
domagis
/
that
they
haue
done
in
Aniou
and
Towrayne
.
So
the
frenchmen
drewe
to
the
place
in
good
order
redy
to
assayle
it
/
for
they
sawe
well
that
the
place
was
p̄ignable
.
Than
they
assayled
the
place
right
fiersly
/
and
there
was
shewed
many
〈◊〉
noble
feate
of
armes
.
The
frenchmen
were
good
men
of
warr
/
and
assayled
the
place
rounde
about
right
valyantly
.
The
erle
and
th
englysshmen
payned
themself
as
moche
as
they
might
to
defende
theymselfe
/
as
it
stode
them
well
in
hande
.
The
frenchmen
hadde
certayne
scalynge
ladders
/
and
some
of
theym
aduentured
themselve
to
mount
vpon
the
walles
/
with
pauesses
before
theym
/
for
feare
of
shotte
and
castyng
of
stones
/
but
whan
they
were
vp
they
were
fierse
lye
receyued
/
with
knightes
and
squyers
/
with
speares
and
swerdes
in
their
handes
.
And
soo
fought
with
the
frenchmen
hand
to
hande
/
and
caused
them
to
discende
downe
faster
than
they
came
vp
:
&
suche
archers
as
were
within
shotte
so
fiersly
/
that
the
frenchmen
drue
abacke
.
So
this
assaut
endured
tyll
it
was
night
/
than
the
frenchmen
right
wery
and
sore
traueyled
〈◊〉
retrayt
and
reculed
backe
/
sayeng
that
〈…〉
●hat

tyll
the
nexte
mornyng
that
they
purposed
to
come
agayn
to
th

But
all
thynges
consydred
/
the
frenchmen
sayde
surely
they
be
all
ours
/
they
can
nat
long
endure
ayenst
vs
/
we
shall
rather
famyshe
them
.
And
so
they
lodged
them
that
night
/
and
kept
good
watch
before
the
place
.
ye
may
knowe
for
trouhe
/
th
erle
of
Penbroke
and
his
company
were
natte
well
at
their
ease
/
for
they
sawe
well
they
were
in

ieopardy
.
For
they
parceyned
well
howe
the
〈…〉

Also

〈…〉
and

〈…〉
the

〈…〉
they
made

and
a

And
whan
it
was
〈…〉
night
/
than
they
de●●red
a
squyer
on
who
〈…〉
ey
had
great
trust
/
to
depart
out
at
a
backe
p●●terne
and
so
to
ryde
to
Poicters

and
to
speke
with
sir
John
Chandos

and
to
shewe
him
what

She
wynge
him
also
/
howe
that
yf

lyst
/
he
might
come

ynough
to
rescue
them
:
for
they
trusted
to
defende
the
place
/
tyll
the
nexte
day
past
noone
.
The
squyer
who
sawe
the
great
danger
that
they
were
in
/
said
he
wolde
gladly
do
their
message
.
And
also
he
sayde
/
he
knewe
well
〈◊〉
way
thider
.
And
so
about
mydnight
〈…〉
by
a
backe
posterne
&
toke
the
way
to
〈◊〉
whiche
as
he
thought
shulde

ben
the
●●xt
way
.
Howbeit
for
all
his
knowledge
/
he
went
all
night
out
of
the
way
/
so
that
it
was
faire
day
or
he
coude
get
in
to
the
right
waye
.
And
in
the
mornynge
the
frenchmen
armed
them
and
sowned
to
th
assaut
/
sayeng
how
they
wolde
assaut
the
place
in
the
cole
of
the
mornyng
/
rather
than
in

And
the

for
all
the

he
&
his

were

stones
&
other
thynges
/
for
they
sawe
well
howe
the
frenchemen
ordeyned

So
within
a

the

&
in
good
ordre
made
assaute
&
had
skalyng
ladders

some
mounted
vp

they

Thus
the
good
quene
of
Englande
dyed
:
in
the
yere
of
our
lorde
.
M.
CCC
.lxix.
in
the
vigyll
of
our
lady
in
the
myddes
of
August
/
Of
whose
dethe
tidynges
came
to
Tornehen
/
into
the
englysshe
hoost
:
wherof
euery
creature
was
sore
displeased
/
and
ryght
so
roufull
:
and
specially
her
son
the
duke
of
Lancastre
.
Howbeit
ther
is
no
sorowe
/
but
it
behoueth
at
length
to
be
borne
and
forgoten
.
Therfore
th
englysshmen
left
nat
their
order
/
but
remayned
a
long
space
before
the
frenchmen
.
So
it
was
/
that
certayne
knightes
and
squyers
of
France
that
were
ther
/
and
dayly
sawe
their
enemyes
before
them
.
Concluded
toguyder
/
the
nexte
mornynge
to
go
and
serimysshe
with
the
englysshmen
.
And
of
the
same
acorde
were
mo
than
thre
hundred
knightes
and
squyers
of
Uer
mandois
/
Artois
/
and
Corbois
:
so
eche
of
them
gaue
warnyng
to
other
/
without
knowledge
of
any
of
their
marshals
.
And
so
the
next
mornyng
by
that
it
was
day
lyght
/
they
were
on
horsbacke
redy
armed
/
and
toguyder
assembled
.
And
so
they
rode
forthe
without
any
noyse
makyng
/
&
rode
about
the
hyll
of
Tornchen
to
take
their
aduantage
/
to
come
in
at
one
of
the
corners
of
th
englysshe
hoost
.
It
whiche
corner
was
loged
sir
Robert
of
Namure
and
his
company
/
&
the
same
nyght
he
had
kepte
the
watche
/
and
in
the
mornynge
he
was
drawen
to
his
tent
/
and
was
set
at
the
table
to
eate
some
meate
/
armed
saue
his
bassenet
:
and
the
lorde
of
Poicten
with
him
.
And
therwith
came
the
frenchmen
on
the
same
syde
/
but
as
happe
was
:
suche
as
had
kepte
the
watche
were
nat
vnarmed
/
the
which
fortuned
well
for
them
.
For
anone
they
were
redy
to
defende
their
ennemyes
/
and
so
encountred
with
them
and
brake
their
way
.
Anone
tidynges
came
to
sir
Robert
of
Namure
/
howe
his
men
were
fightyng
with
the
frenchmen
:
therwith
he
put
the
table
fro
hym
/
and
sayd
:
let
vs
go
and
helpe
our
men
.
And
incontynent
he
put
his
bassenet
on
his
heed
/
and
caused
one
to
take
his
baner
/
and
displayed
it
.
Than
one
sayd
to
him
.
Sir
:
me
thynke
it
were
best
that
ye
sent
to
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
and
fight
nat
without
hym
.
He
answered
shortly
and
sayd
.
Send
who
so
wyll
I
wyll
go
the
nexte
way
that
I
can
to
my
men
/
and
they
that
loue
me
/
lette
them
folowe
after
.
Therwith
he
went
forth
his
glayue
in
his
hande
/
aprochyng
his
ennemyes
:
and
the
lorde
of
Poicten
and
sir
Henry
of
Sanxels
with
hym
/
and
dyuers
other
knightes
.
And
so
founde
his
men
fightyng
with
the
frenchmen
/
who
were
a
great
nombre
:
and
lykely
to
haue
done
a
great
enterprice
.
But
assoone
as
they
sawe
sir
Robert
of
Namures
baner
come
/
they
drewe
abacke
to
gyder
:
for
they
feared
that
all
the
hoost
had
be
styrred
/
and
so
in
dyuers
places
it
was
.
Under
sir
Robertes
baner
/
there
was
slayne
a
knyght
of
Uermandoise
/
called
sir
Robert
of
Coloyne
/
the
which
was
great
domage
:
for
he
was
right
swete
and
courtesse
/
and
a
ryght
good
knight
.
The
frenchmen
retourned
agayne
without
any
more
doyng
/
for
they
feared
rather
to
lese
than
wyn
.
And
sir
Robert
thought
nat
to
folowe
after
folisshely
/
but
assembled
his
men
togyder
/
and
so
went
to
his
lodgyng
/
whan
he
sawe
that
the
frenchmen
were
gone
.
¶
Howe
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
depted
fro
the
duke
of
Lancastre
without
batayle
/
and
howe
the
duke
of
Lancastre
went
to
Calays
.
Ca.
CC
.lxviii.
AFter
thys
aduenture
:
ther
was
nothing
done
that
ought
to
be
remembred
.
It
displeased
mochsom
of
both
parties
/
that
they
were
so
long
so
nere
togyder
and
fought
nat
/
for
it
was
sayde
euery
day
among
them
/
we
shall
fight
to
more
we
/
the
whiche
day
came
neuer
.
For
as
it
is
sayd
before
:
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
wolde
nat
breke
the
ordynaunce
of
the
kynge
his
brother
/
who
hadde
straytely
commaunded
him
/
that
he
shulde
gyue

and
euery

there
was
messangers
bytwene

comyng

goynge
.
The
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
as
I
was
thanne
enfourmed
/
ymagyned
and
consydered
/
howe
that
he
lay
there
at
great
cost
and
charge
/
and
howe
he
coude
lye
no
lengar
there
to
his
honour
.
For
he
hadde
there
a
four
thousande
knyghtes
or
mo
/
and
sawe
well
that
his
enemyes
were
but
a
handfull
of
men
/
as
to
the
nombre
of
his
/
and
had
nother
fought

Wherfore
hesent
of
his

to
the

his

/
shewyng
him

that
other
he
wolde
haue

/
or
els
〈…〉

.
The
kyng
knewe
well
the
duke
desyred
but
reason
/
commaundyng
him
that
on
the
sight
of
his
letters
he
shulde
dillodge
and
gyue
leaue
to
all
his
men
of
warr
to
departe
/
and
to
come
hymselfe
to
Parys
.
Sayenge
/
howe
he
wolde
go
himselfe
in
his
owne
propre
persone
to
fight
with
the
englysshmen
.
Whan
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
herde
those
tidynges
/
he
gaue
knoledge
therof
secretly
to
the
greattest
of
his
host
/
sayeng
to
them
.
Sirs
we
must
disloge
/
the
kyng
heth
commaunded
it
/
and
so
by
the
hour
of
mydnight
all
thyng
was
trussed
/
&
euery
man
mounted
on
their
horses
/
and
set
fyre
on
their
logynges
.
At
whiche
tyme
sir
Henry
of
Sāxels
kept
the
watche
/
with
ser
Robert
of
Namures
company
(
who
spyed
a
fyre
)
and
than
two
or
thre
and
so
mo
.
Than
he
sayd
to
hymselfe
:
a
/
I
fere
me
the
frenchmen

night
/
it
semeth
so
by
their
dealyng
&
said
to
them
that

.
Let
vs
go
and
awake
the
lorde
Robert
Namure
/
to
the
entent
that
the
frenchmen
fynde
vs
nat
a
slepe
.
Than
this
sir
Henry
came
to
the
lodgynge
of
the
lorde
Namur
/
and
called
his
chamberlayns
and
sayd
.
Sirs
/
it

And
they
went
to
his

syde
and
awoke

&
shewed

(
who
answered
)
Well

.
Call

your
folkes
/
and
let
euery
man
be
quickely
armed
:
And
so
they
dyde
/
and
also
he
was
shortly
armed
.
And
whan
his
men
were
assembled
togyder
/
he
caused
one
to
take
his
baner
&
went
streight
to
the
duke
of
Lancastres
tent
/
who
as
than
was
nere
armed
/
for
he
had
warnynge
before

.
And
so
he
was
anon
redy
and
his

lytell
and
lytell
drewe
anone
aboute
him
/
and
euer
as
they
came
they
raynged
in
batayle
fayre
&
softely
/
without
any
noyse
or
light
And
caused
all
the
archers
to
be
redy
raynged
before
theym
/
in
suche
a
place
:
where
as
they
thought
the
frenchmen
shulde
come
/
if
they
were
in
purpose
to
come
and
fight
with
theym
.
And
whan
they
had
stand
thus
the
space
of
two
houses
/
and
sawe
that
none
came
to
them
/
they
had
great
marueyle
.
Than
the
duke
demaunded
of
the
lordes
about
him
/
what
was
best
for
hym
to
do
?
Some
sayd
one
thyng
/
some

another
euery

Than

I

But

and

For
sir
/
anon
it
wyll
be
day
lyght
:
than

The
duke
agreed
to
this
counsayle
/
howe
be
it
some
other
counsayled
to
the
contrary
:
for
in
no
wyse
they
wolde
haue
the

to

.
So
in
this
strife
they
were

/
at

For

Than

This
was
early
in

mornyng
/
&
it
was
a

myst
.
And
the

tyme
/
Sir
Nicholas
Louuaing
/
who
in

aboute
/
for
he
had
well
vsed
them
the
space
of

or
.iii.
yeres
to gether

And
so
thought
to
putte

in
a
busshement
bitwene
Abbeuille
and
the

Rouuray
/
&
so

thought
to

that
kepte

to
knowe
yf
they
had
harde

And
whanne

he
coude
nat
haue
ben

Than
he
set

cowched

and
came
towarde
sir

Syr

for
he

&
whan

/
he
sayd

to

I
yelde

Sir

to

Than
syr

Sirs

and

Sir
Johan
Chandos
/
who
was
a
right
hardy
and
a
coragyous
knight
/
with
his

&
his

sarcenet
/
with
two
pylies

so
that

/
&
as
one
of
the
formast
with
his

in
his

/
marched
to
his
ennemyes
.
The
same
mornyng
ther
had
fallen
a
great
dewe
/
so
that
the
grounde
was
som
what
moyst
/
and
so
in
his
goyng
forwarde
he
stode
and
fell
downe
at

.
and
as
he

/
gyuen
by
a
squier
called
Jakes
of

/
the
whiche
stroke
entred

bytwene

and
the
forheed
.
Sir
John
Chandos
sawe
nat
the
stroke
commyng
on
that
syde
/
for
he
was
blynde
on
the
one
eye
.
He
lost
the
sight
therof
a
fyue
yere
before
as
he
hunted
after
an
hart
/
in
the
laundes
of
Burdeaur
.
And
also
he
had
on
no
vyser
/
the
stroke
was
rude
and
entred
into
his
brayne
/
the
whiche
stroke
greued
him
so
sore
/
that
he
ouerthrue
to
the
erthe
/
and
tourned
for
payne
two
tymes
vp
so
downe
/
as
he
that
was
wounded
to
dethe
.
for
after
the
stroke
he
neuer
spake
worde
.
And
whan
his
men
saw
that
mysfortune
/
they
were
right
dolorouse
.
Than
his
vncle
Edward
Clifforde
stepte
and
bestrode
him
/
for
the
frenchmen
wolde
fayne
haue
had
him
:
and
defended
him
so
valyantly
/
and
gaue
rounde
about
him
such
stokes
that
none
durst
aproche
nere
to
him
.
Also
〈◊〉
John
Chambo
/
and
sir
Bertram
of
Case
semed
lyke
men
out
of
their
myndis
/
whan
they
saw
their
maister
lye
on
the
erth
.
The
bretons
&
frenchmen
were
gretly
conforted
whan
they
sawe
the
capitayne
of
their
enemyes
on
the
erthe
/
thynking
verily
that
he
had
his
dethes
wounde
.
Than
they
auaunced
them selfe
/
and
sayd
:
ye
englyshmen
yelde
you
/
for
ye
are
all
ours
.
ye
canne
nat
scape
vs
.
Ther
the
englyshmen
dyd
marueyls
in
armers
/
aswell
to
defende
themselfe
/
as
to
reueng
their
maister
sir
John
Chandos
/
whome
they
sawe
lye
in
a
harde
case
:
and
a
squyer
of
ser
John
Chandos
spyed
Jaques
of
saynt
Martyn
/
who
hadde
gyuen
his
maister
his
mortall
stroke
/
and
ran
to
hym
fiersly
and
stroke
hym
with
suche
voylence
/
that
his
glayue
pearsed
through
bothe
his
thyes
/
howe
be
it
for
all
that
stroke
he
lefte
nat
styll
to
fight
.
If
sir
Thomas
Percy
and
his
company
had
knowen
of
this
aduenture
/
who
were
on
the
othersyde
of
the
brige
/
they
shulde
well
haue
socoured
hi
:
but
bycause
they
knewe
nothyng
therof
/
nor
herde
no
more
of
the
frenchmen
/
wenyng
to
them
they
had
ben
gone
backe
.
Therfore
he
and
his
company
departed
and
toke
the
waye
to
Poycters
/
as
they
that
knewe
nothynge
of
that
busynesse
.
Thus
the
englysshmen
fought
styll
before
the
bridge
of
Lusac
/
and
there
was
done
many
a
feat
of
armes
:
breuely
the
englysshmen
coude
endure
no
lenger
agaynst
the
frenchmen
/
so
that
the
moost
parte
of
them
were
disconfyted
and
taken
/
but
alwayes
Edwarde
Clyfforde
wolde
nat
depte
fro
his
nephue
there
as
he
lay
.
So
thus
yf
the
frenchmen
hadde
ben
so
happy
/
as
to
haue
had
their
horses
ther
redy
as
they
had
nat
/
for
their
pages
were
ronne
away
fro
them
before
/
orels
they
might
haue
departed
with
moche
honour
and
profite
with
many
a
gode
prisoner
/
and
for
lacke
of
them
they
lost
all
/
wherfore
they
were
sore
displeased
/
and
sayd
among
them selfe
.
A
/
this
is
an
yuell
order
for
the
iourney
is
ours
/
&
yet
through
faute
of
our
pages
we
can
nat
departe
.
Seyng
we
be
heuy
armed
and
sore
traueyled
/
so
that
we
cannat
go
a
fote
through
this
countre
/
the
whiche
is
full
of
our
enemyes

and
contrary
to

And
we
are
a
sixe
leages
fro
the
next
forteresse
that
we
haue

and
also
dyuers
of
our
company
be
sore
hurt
/
and
we
may
nat
leaue
theym
behynde
vs
.
Thus
as
they
were
in
this
case
and
wyst
nat
what
to
do
/
and
had
sent
two
bretons
vnarmed
in
to
the
feldes
/
to
se
yf
they
might
fynde
any

their

with

Ther
came

/
who
rode
about
to
seke
for
the
frenchmen
/
for
it
was
shewed
them
howe
they
were
abrode
.
And
so
they
fell
in
the
trake
of
the
horses
/
and
came
in
great
hast
with
baners
and
penons
wauyng
in
the
wynde
.
And
assoone
as
the
bretons
and
frenchmen
sawe
them
comyng
they
knewe
well
they
were
their
enemies
.
Than
they
sayd
to
the
englysshmen
/
whome
they
had
taken
as
prisoners
before
.
Sirs
/
beholde
yonder
cometh
a
bande
of

and
we

well
that

We
wyll
quyte
you
/
so
that
ye
wyll
kepe

wyll
become

/
for
we
had

than
to

and
they
aunswered
as

〈…〉
e

Thus
the
englysshmen
were
losed
out
of
their
prisons
.
Than
the
poictenyns
/
gascoyns
/
&
englysshmen
came
on

their

cryeng
their

Than
the
frenchmen

and
sayde

them
.
sirs
leaue
do
vs
no

/
we
be
all

redy
.
The
englysshmen
affirmed
the
same
/
and
said
:
they
be
our
prisoners
.
Carlonet
was
prisoner
with
sir
Bertram
of
Case
/
&
sir
Loyes
of
saynt
Julyan
with
sir
Johan
Cambo
/
so
that
there
was
none
but
that
he
had
a
maister
.
UHe
barowns
and
knightes
of
Poicto●●
were
sore
disconforted
/
whan
they
sawe
their
seneschall
sir
Johan
Chandos
lye
on
the
erthe
/
and
coude
nat
speke
:
than
they
lamentably
complayned
/
and
sayd
.
A
/
sir
Johan
Chandos
:
the
floure
of
all
chiualry
/
vnhappely
was
that
glayue
forged
that
thus
hath
wounded
you
and
brought
you
in
parell
of
dethe
.
They
wept
piteously
that
were
about
hym
/
&
he
herde
and
vnderstode
theym
well
/
but
he
coulde
speke
no
worde
.
They
wronge
their
handes
&
tare
their
heeres
/
and
made
many
a
pytefull
complaynt
/
and
specially
suche
as
were
of
his
owne
house
.
Than
his
seruauntes
vnarmed
him
and
layde
him
on
pauesses
/
&
so
bare
him
softely
to
Mortymer
the
next
forteresse
to
them
.
And
the
other
barons
and
knyghtes
retourned
to
Poycters
/
and
ledde
with
them
their
prisoners
.
And
as
I
vnderstode
/
the
same
Jaques
Martyn
that
thus
hurte
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
was
so
lytell
taken
hede
to
of
his
hurtes
/
that
he
dyed
at
Poiters
.
And
this
noble
knight
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
lyued
nat
after
his
hurte
/
past
a
day
and
a
nyght
/
but
so
dyed
:
god
haue
mercy
on
his
soule
/
for
in
a
hundred
yere
after
/
ther
was
nat
a
more
curtesse
nor
more
fuller
of
noble
vertues
/
&
good
condycions
amonge
the
englysshmen
/
than
he
was
.
And
whan
the
prince
and
pricesse
/
the
erle
of
Cambridge
/
the
erle
of
Pembroke
/
and
other
barowns
and
knightes
of
Englande
/
suche
as
were
in
Guyen
herd
of
his
dethe
/
they
were
all
〈…〉
orted
/
and
sayd
:
they
had
lost
all
on
that
syde
of
the
see
.
For
his
dethe
his
frendes
/
and
also
some
of
his
enemyes
/
were
right
soroufull
The
englysshmen
loued
him
/
bycause
all
noblenesse
was
founde
in
hym
.
The
frenchmen
hated
him
/
bycause
they
douted
hym
.
yet
I
herde
his
dethe
greatly
complayned
among
right
noble
and
valyant
knightes
of
France
.
Sayeng
that
it
was
a
great
dommage
of
his
dethe
/
for
they
sayd
better
it
had
ben
/
that
he
had
ben
taken
a
lyue
.
For
if
he
had
ben
taken
a
lyue
/
they
sayd
he
was
so
sage
and
so
ymaginatyue
/
that
he
wolde
haue
founde
some
maner
of
good
meanes
/
wherby
the
peace
might
haue
ensued
/
bytwene
the
realmes
of
Englande
and
Fraunce
/
for
he
was
so
welbeloued
with
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
that
the
kyng
wolde
beleue
him
/
rather
than
any
other
in
the
worlde
.
Thus
bothefrenche
and
englysshe
spake
of
his
dethe
/
and
specially
the
englysshmen
:
for
by
hym
Guyen
was

AFter
the
dethe
of
sir
Johan
Chandos
/
sir
Thomas
Percy
was
made
seneschall
of
Poictou
.
and
so
it
fell
that
the
lande
of
saynt
Sauiour
the
vycount
/
fell
in
the
kynge
of
Englandes
●andes
to
gyue
wher
it
shuld
please
him
.
Than
he
g●●e
it
to
a
knyght
of
his
/
called
sir
Alayne
Bourchier
/
an
experte
man
of
armes
.
Of
all
that
sit
Johan
Chandos
had
/
whiche
was
in
yerely
to
uenewes
/
to
the
somme
of
four
hundred
thousande
frankes
.
The
prince
was
his
successessour
and
heyre
/
for
he
was
neuer
maryed
nor
had
none
heyres
.
And
within
a
certayne
space
after
suche
as
hadde
ben
taken
at
the
bridge
of
Lusac
were
put
to
their
fynance
and
raunsome
/
and
payed
it
:
by
the
ayde
and
helpe
of
the
frenche
kynge
.
And
so
retourned
agayne
into
their
garysons
/
sir
Loyes
of
saynt
Julyan
/
Carlonet
the
breton
/
and
sir
Wyllyam
of
Bourdes
.
The
same
season
ther
were
some
knyghtes
of
France
/
that
were
sore
troubled
in
their
mynd
/
bycause
they
sawe
thus
nightly
and
dayly
/
the
warre
multiply
bytwene
these
two
kynges
/
of
France
and
Englande
.
And
specially
the
lorde
of
Concy
/
for
it
touched
him
gretly
:
for
he
had
fayre
enherytance
in
Englande
/
aswell
by
hym selfe
as
by
his
wyfe
/
who
was
doughter
to
the
kynge
of
Englande
.
Whiche
lande
he
must
renounce
/
if
he
wolde
serue
the
frenche
kynge
(
of
whose
blode
he
was
)
and
of
the
same
nacyon
.
So
he
determyned
him selfe
to
dissemble
with
bothe
kyngis
/
&
so
to
forget
the
tyme
/
he
thought
to
departe
out
of
the
realme
of
France
for
a
season
and
go
and
sporte
him
in
some
otherplace
.
And
so
ordered
his
departure
sagely
/
and
toke
leaue
of
the
frenche
kyng
/
and
with
a
small
company
departed
and
rode
in
to
Sauoy
/
where
he
was
honorably
receyued
/
of
the
erle
/
barons
and
knightes
of
the
countre
.
And
whan
he
had
〈◊〉
ther
as
long
as
it
pleased
hym
/
than
he
departed
and
passed
forthe
in
to
Lombardy
/
and
came
to
the
lordes
of
Myllayne
:
the
lorde
Galeas
and
the
lorde
Barnabo
/
where
he
was
at
the
begynning
to
them
right
welcome
.
In
lyke
maner
departed
out
of
the
duchy
of
Acàtayne
/
sir
Aymon
of
Pomyers
/
a
knight
of
the
prices
:
sayeng
howe
that
as
long
as
the
warr
dyde
endure
he
wolde
nat
beare
armes
/
nother
on
the
one
parte
nor
on
the
other
.
And
so
this
knyght
went
in
to
Cypre
/
and
to
the
holy
sepulcre
and
dyuers
other
pylgrimages
.
And
also
the
same
season
/
there
was
newly
come
to
Parys
sir
Johan
of
Burbone
/
who
helde
parte
of
his
lande
of
the
prince
.
The
frenche
kynge
wolde
gladly
haue
had
hym
to
renounce
his
homage
to
the
prince
/
and
to
become
frenche
:
but
the
erle
in
no
wyse
wolde
so
do
.
In
lyke
maner
no
more
wolde
the
lorde
of
Pyerbuffier
/
another
baneret
of
Lymosyn
/
who
also
was
at
Parys

But
there
were
other
two
great
barons
of
Lymosyn
/
sir
Loyes
of
Maleuall
/
and
sir
Raymon
of

his
nephue

who
also
the
same
season
were
at
Parys
they
forsoke
the
prince
and
became
frenche
.
And
after
by
their
garysons
made
gret
warre
to
the
prince
/
wherof
the
kynge
of
Englande
and
his
counsayle
were
sore
displeased
And
also
in
that
dyuers
barones
of
Guyen
became
frenche
without
any
constraynt
/
but
by
their
owne
wylles
.
Than
the
kyng
of
Englande
was
counsayled
/
that
he
shulde
write
couert
letters
sealed
with
his
seale
/
and
to

in

and
ther
to

In

The

publysshed
all
about
.
And
the
copyes
sent
secretly
into
Parys
/
to
the
vycont
of
Rochchoart
/
the
lorde
Maleuall
the
lorde
of
Marneyle
/
&
to
other
suche

turned
frenche

Nowbeit
for
all
that
these
letters
were
thus
sent
and
publysshed
/
in
all
the
countrey
of
Acqtayne
/
I
herde
nat
that
any
for
all
that
left
to
do
as
they
lyst
.
So
that
nat
with
standyng
/
dayly
they
turned
to
the
frenche
parte
.
And
so
it
was
/
that
assone
as
sir
Loys
of
saynt
Julyan
was
retourned
in
to
the
Roche
of
Poy
say
and
sir
Wyllm
of
Bordes
in
to
the
garison
of
the
Hay
in
Tourayn
/
and
Carlon
et
to
saynt
Saluyn
.
Than
secretly
they
made
forthe
a
iorney
of
men
of
armes
and
hardy
companyons
well
mounted
/
and
in
a
mornyng
they
came
to
Chasteleraut
&
scaled
the
towne
/
and
had
nerehand
taken
sir
Loys
of
Harcourt
/
who
lay
in
his
bed
a
slepe
in
his
logyng
in
the
towne
.
And
so
with
the
s●ry
/
he
was
fayne
to
flye
in
his
sherte
barefote
and
barelegged
/
fro
house
to
house
/
fro
garden
to
garden
/
in
great
dout
&
feare
of
takyng
by
the
frenchmen
/
who
had
scaled
and
won
the
fortresse
.
And
so
ferr
he
sledde
/
that
he
came
and
put
him selfe
vnder
the
bridge
of
Chasteleraut
the
whiche
his
men
had
fortifyed
before
.
and
so
ther
he
saued
him selfe
/
and
kept
him selfe
there
a
long
space
.
But
thus
the
bretons
and
frenchmen
were
maisters
of
the
towne
/
and
ther
made
a
good
garison
/
and
made
Carlonet
capitayn
.
And
dayly
the
bretons
and
frenchmen
went
to
the
bridge
/
and
fought
and
scrimysshed
with
them
that
kepte
it
.
DUke
Loyes
of
Burbon
/
who
sawe
well
that
the
englysshmen
and
companyons
were
in
his
countre
of
Burbonoise
.
And
howe
that
Drtygo
/
Bernard
de
Wyst
/
and
Bernard
de
la
Sale
/
helde
his
castell
at
Bell
perche
/
and
the
good
lady
his
mother
within
:
wherof
he
had
great
displeasur
.
Than
he
aduysed
hi
to
make
a
iourney
and
to
go
and
lay
siege
to
Bell
percly
and
nat
to
departe
thens
/
tyll
he
had
wonne
it
.
Of
the
whiche
enterprice
/
he
desyred
the
frenche
kynge
to
gyue
him
leaue
/
whiche
the
kynge
lightly
agreed
vnto
:
sayeng
howe
he
wolde
helpe
him
to
maynteyne
his
siege
.
Thus
he
departed
fro
Parys
/
and
made
his
assemble
at
Molyns
in
Auuerne
/
and
at
saynt
Porcyns
:
so
that
he
had
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
warre
.
The
lorde
of
Beauieu
came
to
serue
hym
with
thre
hundred
speares
/
and
the
lorde
Uyllers
&
Rosellon
with
a

/
and

other

of

/
wher

he
was
lorde
by
right
of
his
wyfe
/
doughter
to
the
gentyll
lorde
Berault
erle

.
So
thus
the
duke
went
&
layd
siege
to
Bell
perche
/
and
made
before
it
a
great
bastyd
/
for
his
m●n
dayly
to
drawe
in
to
vnder
couert
:
and
so
dayly
scrimysshed
with
them
that
were

Also
the
duke
had
ther
four
great
engins
/
the
which
cast
night
and
day
great

so
that
the
toopes
of
the

&
houses
were
beaten
downe
and
a
great
parte
of
the

.
Wherof
the
dukes
mother
who
was

within
had
gret
feare
.
And
sent
out
messangers
to
the
duke
her

for

But
the

/
who
knewe
well
that
her
request
and
desyre
was
done
/
by
the
meanes
of
his

.
Aunswered
/
that
in
no
wyse
he
wolde
cease
nor
forbere
what
soeuer
fell
.
And
whan
they
within
sawe
/
howe
they
were
so
sore
oppressed
/
and
howe
that
the
strength
of
the
frenchemen
daylye
multiplyed
.
For
to
theym
was
newly
come
sir
Loyes
of

/
with
great
plenty
of

Than

howe

Thus

/
and
secretly
by
night
they
sent
a
varlet
out
of
the
forteresse
to
sir
John

/
and
whan

/
he
remembred
well

And

And

the

wastyng

Lynde
a

/
standyng

the
Ryuer
of
Dordone
/
a
leage
fro
Bergerath
.
And
capitayne
therof
was
sir
Thomas
of
Batefoyle
a
knight
of
Gascoyne
/
who
was
within
the
towne
/
set

And
so
the

.
Sayeng
howe
they
wolde
neuer
depart
thens
/
tyll
they
had
the
forteresse
at
their
commaundement
.
The
towne
was
good
&
strong
and
well
furnysshed
with
artillary
/
for
the
captall
of
Beufz
and
sir
Thomas
Phelton
had
ben
ther
nat
past
a
.xv.
dayes
before
/
and
had
so
refresshed
the

/
that
they
thought
well
that
they
within
might
kepe
well
the

Consydering
the
ayde
and
helpe
that
they
might
haue
shortely
fro
Bergerath
/
if

requyred
.
Howbeit
the
people
of
the
towne
were
sore
enclyned
to
become
frenche
/
and
had
great
desyre
to
harken
on
the
promysses
that
the
duke
of
Aniou
made
vnto
them
.
So
that
finally
the

/
was
fayne
to
agre
to

.
And
also
by
a

and
great
ꝓfyte
yerely
of
the
duke
of
Aniowe
/
and
ther vpon
to
become
good
frenche
/
and
so
it
was
ordayned
that
in
a
mornynge
he
shulde
let
the
frenchmen
entre
into
the
towne
.
This
treaty
and
couenant
was
nat
so
close
kepte
/
but
that
it
was
knowen
in
Bergerath
/
the
nyght
before
that
the
towne
shulde
be
delyuered
in
the
mornynge
.
And
the
same
tyme
in
to
the
towne
of
Bergerath
there
was
come
/
the
erle
of
Cambridge
with
two
hundred
speares

and
he
was
present
whan

The

hadde
great
marueyle
therof
/
and
sayd
:
how
he
wolde
be
at
the
delyuere
of
the
towne
.
And
so
after
mydnight
they
departed
fro
Bergerath
/
and
rode
towarde
Lynde
/
and
at
the
brekyng
of
the
day
they
came
thyder
/
and
caused
the
gate
to
be
opned
&
so
rode
through
the
towne
/
tyll
they
came
to
the
other
gate
/
where
as
the
frenchmen
shulde
entre
.
At
whiche
tyme
they
were
a
entrynge
/
&
sir
Thomas
Batefole
redy
to
make
them
way
to
entre
.
Than
the
Captall
of
Befz
stept
forthe
his
swerde
in
his
hande
and
lighted
a
fote
nere
to
the
gate
/
and

A
/
sir

Batefole
false
traytour
:
thou
shalt

thou
shalte
neuer

and
therwith
stroke
at
hym
with
his
swerde
in
suche
wyse

that
he
fell

to
the
erthe
.
Whan
the
frenchmen
parceyued
the
Captall
and
his
baner
/
and
sir
Thomas
Phelton
/
they
knewe
well
they
fayled
of
their
entent
/
wherfore
they
reculed
togyder
and
turned
their
backes
and
fledde
away
.
So
the
towne
abode
styll
englysshe
/
&
was
in
gret
parell
to
haue
ben
robbed
and
brent
by
the

bycause
they
consented

Howe

they
excused

sayd
:
howe
they
dyde

/
nor
consented
to
do
nothynge
but
for
very
feare
/
and
principally
for
feare
of
their
capitayne
.
So
this
passed
ouer
/
and
these
two
lordes
abode
styll
ther
a
long
season

tyll
the
duke
of
Aniou

BEfore

/
whiche

was
so
wysely
handled
by

wherby

Whan

And

the
space
of
seayn
dayes
/
and
taken

counsayle
/
to

And
so
in
a

they
departed
and
toke

/
and
were
to
the
nombre
of
.xv.
hundred

.
And
he

&

.
and
so
the
first
day
they
went
nere
to
Fiennes
.
Sir
Moreau
of
Fiennes
/
who
was
constable
of
France
was
the
same
tyme
in
his
owne
castell
of
Fiennes
/
with
a
great
nombre
of
knightis
and
squyers
/
well
purueyed
and
aduysed
to

.
And
in
the
mornyng
the
englysshmen
came
thyder
/
thynkyng
to
assayle
the
castell
/
but
anone
they
sawe
howe
they
coude
take
none
aduauntage

.
And
so

forthe
through
the
countie
of
guyens
/
and
entred
into
the
countie
of
Faucōbrige
and
brent
all
before
them
/
and
so
came
to
the
cite
of
Turwyn
.
But
they
dyde
nat
assayle
it
/
for
it
was
so
well
prouyded
for
/
that
they
thought
they
shulde
but
lose
their
payne
.
And
so
thanne
they
toke
their
way
throught
the
countre
of
Terrenoyse
/
to
entre
into

/
&
dayly

fote
/
and
toke

euer
about

and
lay
about

.
And
so
at
last
they
came
to
the
cytie
of
Arras
/
&
they
lodged
in
the
towne
of
Mount
saynt
Eloy
〈◊〉
to
Arras
.
And
so
they
brente
and
wasted
all
the
countre
as
ferr
as
they
durst
stretche
abrode
.
The
frenche
kyng
had
the
same
season
set
gret
garysons
in
all
cyties
/
townes
/
castels
/
fortresses
/
bridges
/
and
passages
:
to
defende
them
agaynst
all

.
And
whan
sir
Robert
Canoll
and
his
company
had
refresshed
them
two
dayes
in
the
mount
saynt
Eloy
/
than
they
departed
and
went
and
passed
by
the
cytie
of
Arras
.
Sir
wyllm̄
Mesuell
and
sir
Geffray
Dursell
marshals
of
the
englysshe
hoost
/
thought
to
go
and
se
them
of
Arras
more
nerer
/
and
toke
with
them
a
two
hundred
speares
/
and
a
foure
hundred
archers
and
departed
out
of
the
great
batayle
/
and
auaunsed
them selfe
to
the
subbarbes
of
the
towne
and
so
came
to
the
barryers
/
the
whiche
they
founde
well
furnisshed
with
cros
bowes
and
men
of
armes
.
And
within
the
towne
was
sir
Charles
of
Poicters
with
the
lady
of
Artoise
/
but
he
made
no
semblant
to
yssue
out
nor
to
fight
with
th
englysshmen
.
And
whan
the
englisshmen
had
taryed
before
the
barryers
a
certayne
space
/
and
sawe
that
non
yssued
agaynst
them
.
Than
they
drue
agayne
to
their
batayle
but
at
their
departyng
they
thought
to
make
a
knowledge
that
they
had
ben
there
/
for
they
set
the
subbarbes
a
fyre
/
to
th
entent
to
haue
drawen
out
of
the
towne
the
men
of
war
/
but
they
were
in
no
mynde
so
to
do
.
And
so
the
fyre
dyd
moch
hurt
&
domage
/
for
ther
they
brent
a
great
monastery
of
freers
prechers
/
cloyster
and
all
.
and
so
th
englysshmen
passed
forthe
and
toke
the
way
to
Bapalmes
/
brennyng
and
wastyng
the
countre
.
And
so
at
last
they
came
into
Uermandoise
and
came
to
Roy
and
brent
the
towne
/
and
than
passed
forthe
and
went
to
Hem
in
Uermandois
wherinto
all
the
people
were
withdrawen
/
and
all
their
goodes
:
and
so
they
dyde
in
lyke
wise
at
saynt
Quintyns
and
at
Peron
.
so
that
th
englisshmen
founde
nothyng
abrode
/
saue
the
granges
full
of
corne
:
for
it
was
after
August
.
So
they
rode
forth
fayre
&
easely
a
two
or
thre
leagis
a
day
.
And
whan
they
came
wher
as
any
plentie
of
vitayle
was
than
they
taryed
ther
a
two
or
thre
dayes
/
to
refresshe
them
and
their
horses
.
And
so
on
a
day
they
came
before
a
towne
/
the
whiche
was
chefe
of
all
that
countre
ther
about
and
the
marshals
spake
with
the
capitayne
by
assurance
/
&
sayd
to
him
.
Howe

what
wyll
ye
gyue
and
we
shall
respyte
this
countre
/
and
saue
it
fro
brennyng
and
robbyng
.
so
they
fell
at
a
composicyon
that
they
of
the
playne
countre
shulde
gyue
and
pay
to
them
a
certayne
some
of

:
and
so
the
countre
was
saued
.
This

/
aboue

/
wherof
afterwarde
he
was

for

that
he
had
nat
well
done
his

in

THe

of

for

/
the
value
of
a

/
yf
they
sayd
they

lorde
of

.
And
so
at
last
the
englysshmen
came
before
the
cyte
of
Noyon
/
the
whiche
was
well
furnyshed
with
men
of

.
Ther
the

they
might
/
and
aduysed
to
se
if
any
maner
of
assaut
might
preuayle
them
or
nat
/
and
there
they
sawe
that
the
towne
was
well
aparelled
for
defence
.
And
sir
Robert
Canoll
was
loged
in
the
abbey
of
Dolkans
/
and
his
people
about
him
.
And
on
a

he

Ther

This

Howbeit
in

WHan
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
barons
&
knyghtes
were
come
to
the
castell
of
Mountpaon
/
they
layed
siege
therto
/
&
made
as
gret
proyisyon
for
their
lodgynges
and
other
necessaryes
/
as
thoughe
they
shulde
haue
taryed
there
the
space
of
seuyn
yere
.
And
they
lay
nat
ydell
/
for
incontyuent
they
apꝑelled
themselfe
to
assayle
the
castell
/
and
caused
the
villayns
of
the
countre
to
cutte
downe
great
quantyte
of
wode
and
tymbre
to
cast
into
the
dykes
.
And
thus
fyftene
vayes
togyder
they
dyd
nothyng
/
but
alwayes
cast
stuffe
in
to
the
dykes
/
and
on
the
wode
and
tymbre
they
layed
ouer
strawe
and
erthe
.
And
so
within
that
space
they
had
fylled
a
great
parte
of
the
dykes
/
so
that
they
might
well
come
to
the
walles
/
to
scrimy
she
with
them
within
/
as
they
vyde
nigh
euery
day
/
fyue
or
sixe
assautis
/
wher
as
there
was
many
noble
dedes
done
.
For
the
foure
breton
knyghtes
that
were
within
/
were
right
valyaut
men
of
armes
/
and
defended
them selfe
right
nobly
/
wherfore
they
ought
greatly
to
be
commended
.
For
though
the
englisshmen
and
gascoyns
came
so
nere
them
/
yet
they
were
nat
afrayed
/
nor
lost
no
great
thyng
.
And
nere
to
this
garyson
ther
were
other
bretons
in
an
other
garyson
/
called
saynt
Maquayre
/
of
whom
Johan
of
Malestroyt
and
Syluester
Budes
were
capitayns
/
who
euery
day
herde
spekyng
of
the
feates
of
armes
/
that
were
done
before
Mountpaon
.
And
they
had
great
desyre
to
be
there
/
and
sayd
often
tymes
one
to
another
.
We
knowe
well
our
companyons
are
here
by
/
who
are
right
valyaunt
/
as
we
may
here
dayly
by
their
dedis
/
and
euery
day
they
haue
fyue
or
.
vivatayls
/
and
yet
we
lye
here
styll
&
do
nothyng
▪
Certayuly
we
acquyte
vs
nat
well
.
So
thus
they
were
in
great
desyre
to
go
and
rescue
them
if
they
might
.
And
whan
they
had
all
spoken
/
&
consydred
the
peryll
to
leaue
their
owne
forteresse
/
voyde
/
they
wyst
nat
well
what
to
do
.
than
on
a
tyme
/
Syluester
Budes
/
sayde
to
his
felow
.
John
/
ye
shall
other
go
or
els
wyll
I
/
chose
you
whyder
.
Than
Johan
answered
and
sayd
Syluester
/
ye
shall
abyde
here
and
I
wyll
go
.
And
ther
they
were
at
a
longe
stryfe
/
whiche
of
them
shulde
go
.
And
so
at
last
they
acorded
and
sware
/
and
made
promyse
before
all
the
company
/
that
they
shulde
drawe
cuttes
:
and
he
that
shulde
haue
the
longest
strawe
shuld
go
forthe
and
the
other
abyde
.
So
than
they
drewe
/
and
the
longest
cutte
fell
to
Syluester
Budes
/
than
there
was
great
laughyng
among
all
the
company
.
This
Syluester
toke
it
for
no
fable
/
but
apparelled
him selfe
and
mounted
on
his
horse
and
departed
with
.xii.
men
of
armes
with
him
and
rode
so
long
/
that
at
the
euenyng
he
entred
in
to
the

of

/
wher
of

For

the
tyme
that

of

was
ouerthrowen
/
they
were
neuer

The

in

of

more

Than

And

Than

The

ANone

Of

So

he
assembled

And

So
long
they
rode
that
they
came
to
the

there
they
lodged

The

and
secretly

The

And

they

Howe

And
than
the

who
were
well
prouyded
with
a

of

of

and

Anone

.
Whome
they
but
lytell
feaced

and
so
came

So
thus
at

ther
was
great
cry
and
noyse
of

And

ANd

For
there
were
neuer

dyde
more
valyantly

〈◊〉

a

people
in
regarde
to
the
〈…〉
des
and
also
farr
lasse
nombre
of

:
and
lesse
of
quantyte

Therfore
it
myght
well
be
marueyled
howe
they
endured
so
long
/
but
the
noble
knightode
that
was
in
them
/
reconforted
them
/
and
helde
them

For
if

the

hadde
taken
but
lytell
aduauntage
of
them
.
They
helde

none
durst
abyde

withoute
they
were
well

hurte

And
hurt

The

Thus
in

And

Thus

and
also

To

And

where

But

ALl

And

¶
And
as
it
was
shewed

/
th

shyp
wherin
was
all
the
treysure
and
richesse
/
wher
with
sir

wages
in

/
was
perysshed
and
drowned
:
and
all

was
therin
/
so
that
nothyng

came
to
profyte
.
All
that
day
the
whiche
was
the
vigyll
of
saynt
Johan
the
Baptyst
and
that
night
/
and
the
next
daye
tyll
it
was
noone
/
the
spanyerdes
lay
styll
at
ancre
before
Rochell
/
makyng
great
ioye
.
And
it
for
tuned
well
to
a
knight
of
Poictou
/
called
ser
Jaques
of
Surgeres
:
for
he
spake
so
swetely
&
so
fayre
to
his
mayster
/
that
he
was
quyt
:
with
the
payeng
of
thre

C.
frankes
.
And
so
he
came
on
salt
Iohnns
day
to
dyner
in
to
the
towne
of
Rochell
by
him
ther
it
was
knowen

&
dyuers
burgesses
of
the

/
shewed
by
semblant
howe
they
were
sorie

displeased
.
Howbeit
they
were
in
dede
right
ioyouse
/
for
they
neuer
naturally
loued
the
englysshemen
.
And
so
whan●oone
was
past
on
saynt
Johans
day
/
&
that
the
tyde
came
on
.
Thespanyerdes
wayed
vp

spred
their

and
so
departed
makyng

And
they

long
stremers
wauynge
in

of

with

so
that

Thus
in

they
departed
and
toke
ther

towardes

the

Of

THis
yuan
of
Wales
/
was
son
to
a
prince
of
Wales
/
whom
kynge
Edwarde
had
put
to
dethe
:
I
can
nat
say
for
what
cause
.
And
so
gaue
the
principalyte
to
his
sonne
/
&
made
hym
prince

Wales
.
So
this
yuan
came
into
Fraunce
&
complayned
to
kyng
Charles
of

/
of
the
iniuryes
that
the

So
the

aduaunsed
him
greatly

made
him
gouernour
of
certayn

And

thousande
fightyng
men

and
sent

Normandy
:
wherof
Aymon
Rosse
a

with

And
whan
he
knewe

the
frenchmen
were
aryued
in
the
yle
/
and
yuan
of
Wales
with
them
:
he
was
nothynge
content
.
And
so
made
his
somons
through
the
yle
/
the
which
is
nat
great
in
quantyte
/
and
so
he
assembled
/
what
of
his

of
the
yle
/
to
the
nombre
of
.viii.
hundred
.
And
so
came
to
a
certayne
place
/
and
ther
fought
with
the
sayd
yuan
where
there
was
a
sore
batayle
/
and
endured
along

.
Howe beit
finally
the
englysshmen
were
disconfyted
and
flayne
in
the

place
/
mo
than
four
hundred
.
And
so
this
Aymon
fled
away
or
els
he
had
ben
deed
or
taken
:
so
he
saued
him selfe
with
moche
payne
/
and
entred
into
a

castell
a
two
leages
thens
/
called

:
the

Than

Duryng

Of

was

and
entended
thereby
the

For

¶
Howe
the
kyng
of
Englande
was
sore
displeased
of
the

of
Penbroke
/
and
how
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
toke
the
castell
of
Mount
morillon
.
Cap.
CCC
.i.
THe
kyng
of
England
was
sore
displeased
whan
he
herde
how
the
army
that
he
had
sent
in
to
Poictou
was
ouerthrowen
by
the
spanyerdes
on
the
see
/
and
so
wer
all
suche
as
loued
hym
/
how
be
it
they
coude
nat
am●de
it
for
that
tyme
.
than
the
sages
of
therealme
thought
surely
that
the
countre
of
Poictou
and
of
Xaynton
was
likely
to
be
lost
/
by
reason
of
the
sayd
mysse
happe
:
&
this
they
shewed
to
the
kyng
and
to
the
duke
of
Lancastre
.
So
they
were
long
in
counsayle
on
the
mater
/
and
so
determyned
as
than
:
that
the
erle
of
Salysbury
with
fyue
hundred
men
of
armes
shulde
go
thyder
.
But
what
s●●uer
〈◊〉
s●yle
or
aduyse
was
taken
/
ther
was
nothyng
done
/
for
there
came
other
busynesses
in
hande
out
of
Bretayne
/
that
letted
that
iourney
/
wher
of
the
kyng
repented
him
after
/
whan
he
coude
nat
remedy
it
.
So
it
was
/
that
the
spanyerdes
who
had
taken
the
erle
of
Penbroke
(
as
ye
haue
herd
before
)
they
taryed
a
certayne
space
on
the
see
/
bycause
the
wynde
was
contrary
to
them
Howbeit
at
last
they
arryued
at
the
porte
saynt
Andrewe
in
Galyce
/
and
so
entred
into
the
towne
about
noone
.
And
so
brought
all
their
prisoners
in
to
the
Castell
/
all
bounde
in
cheanes
of
yron
acordyng
to
their
custome
/
for
other
courtesy
they
can
nat
shewe
.
They
are
like
vnto
the
almaynes
.
THe
same
day
/
yuan
of
Wales
was
arryued
with
his
shyppe
in
the
same
porte
/
&
so
toke
lande
and
entred
in
to
the
same
house
/
wher
as
Domferant
of
Pyon
/
and
Cabesse
of
Wakadent
had
brought
the
erle
of
Penbroke
and
his
knightes
.
And
so
it
was
shewed
yuan
as
he
was
in
his
chambre
/
howe
the
englysshemen
were
in
the
same
house
as
prisoners
.
And
this
yuan
had
great
desyre
to
se
them
/
to
knowe
what
they
were
.
and
so
he
went
forthe
in
to
the
hall
/
and
as
he
went
thyder
he
encountred
with
the
erle
of
Penbroke
/
whome
he
knewe
ryght
well
/
yet
he
had
nat
often
sene
him
before

Than
he
sayd
to
him

The

whan
he
sawe
that
he
was
a

and
in
a
strange
land

knowyng

that
so

And

For

my

my

was
betrayed

wherof
I
ought
to

Than
stepte

Thanyuan

Than

valyantly
〈◊〉
of

for

And

great
varyaunce
all

ANd
assone
as
wynter
was

/
sir
Bertram
of

/
departed

And

Limosyn
Geffray
Ricoynan
of
Lanconet
/
Geffray
of
Konyell
and
dyuers
other
knightis
and
squyers
.
And
so
they
layed
siege
to
Syreth
/
and
closed
them selfe
about
with
pales
/
to
th
entent
nat
to
be
troubled
in
the
nyght
.
Often
certayne
of
them
aproched
to
the
fortresse
and
scrimysshed
with
them
within
/
who
defended
them selfe
right
valyantly
.
So
it
fell
this
siege
enduryng
/
that
sir
Robert
Mycon
/
and
sir
Nicotyn
the
scotte
/
who
were
kepers

sent
knowledge

And
they

and
so
they

And

nombre
of
sixe
hundred
and
seuyn
speares
/
of

besyde
other

And
so
long
they
rode
that
they
came
to
Syreth
/
for
it
was
but
four
leages
fro

.
And
whan
they
were
come
to
Syreth
/
than
they
rested
them
a
space
of
tyme
/
to
apparell
them selfe
.
But
it
had
bene
better
for
them
to
haue
sette
on
the
lodgynges
of
the
constable
/
for
anone
he
had
worde
of
their
comyng
/
and
howe
they
were
araynged
in
the
felde
.
Hobeit
the
constable
was
nat
greatly
afrayed
/
but
made
all
his
men
to
be
armed
and
to
drawe
toguyder
/
and
than
he
sayde
.
Nowe
fayre
sirs
/
howe
say

?
haue
you
any

to
fight
with
your

/
for
I

vs
to
fyght
.
And
they
sayd
:
sir
we
thanke
god
/
it
shal
be
welcome
to

.
Than
the
constable
aduysed
to
set
a
busshment
to
watche
them
of
the
castell
/
for
he
thought
well
they
wolde
yssue
out
/
and
so
set
ther
two
hundred
for
that
entent
.
Thanne
he
caused
to
be
cast
downe
the
moost
parte
of
the
pales
that
were
about
their
hoostis
to
th
entent
they
shulde
nat
lette
hym
nor
his
company
whan
he
wolde
yssue
out
.
And
so
ordayned
two
batayls
/
the
one
was
gouerned
by
sir
Alayne
of
Beaumount
/
and
the
other
by
sir
Geffray
of
Carnuell
/
and
commaunded
that
none
shulde

/
and
that
euery
man
shulde
kepe

.
NOwe
lette
vs

/
who
were
aboue
in

/
&
sawe

.
Than
they
sayd
/
lette

/
we

&
assoone
as
our

knoweth
that
we
be

/
they
wyll
come
on
/
&
do
great
domage
to

/
or
they
shall

And
so
they

and
yssued
out

to
skrymysshe
with

but
they
were
encountred
with

And
so
ther

but
the
englysshmen
were
so
enclosed
/
that
they
coude
nother
recule
backe
nor
go

:
and
so
they
were
all
taken
or
slayne
so
that
none
escaped
.
The
two
capitayns
were
taken
.
And
all
this

were
on
the
felde
/
and
the
constable
styll
in
his
perclose
/
and
issued
nat
out
:
for
they
feared
that
the
englisshmen
had
some
great
enbusshement
in

The
englysshmen
had
brought

&
bretons
/
robbers
and

whome
the
englisshmen

And

if

The
constable
sayd
he
was
content
to

Than
he
sette

on

and
lerned
by

¶
Whan
the

And

And
at

they
encountred

that
they

But

And

Howbeit

Ther

¶
And

/
and
toke
hede
to
their

men
and
to

:
wherof
they
had

And
afterwarde
the
constable
sent
to
speke
with

/
sir
Alayne
of

/
who
shewed

that
if

Than
they

put

to
grace
/
for
he
suffred
them
to

and
had
saue
conducte
to
go
to
Burdeaux
.
Thus
the
frenche
men
had
the
castell
and
the
lande
:
which
was
put
vnder
the
obeysaunce
of
the
frenche
kyng
.
Than
the
bretons
in
a
great
heate
came
before
Niorth
/
whiche
was
a
good
towne
in
Poictou
/
and
had
all
the
season
before
euer
susteyned
the

/
for
they
kepte
euer
a

And
as
soone
as
they
of
Niorth
/
knewe
that
the
constable
came
to
them
warde
/
they
went
out
against
him
/
and
presented
to
hym
the
kayes
of
the
towne
:
&
so
brought
hym
in
to
their
towne
with
great
ioye
/
&
there
the
bretons
refresshed
them
a
four
dayes
.
And
than
depted
with
great

/
they
were

&
so
went
before
the
forteresse
of

which
was
yelded

so
that

their

cary
before
them
of
their

and
so
had
a
saue
conducte
/
to

.
Thus
the
frenchmen
had
that
castell
and
all
the
seignory
/
and
all
the
men
therof
became
subgettes
to
the
french

Than
the
bretons
rode

and
the

And

The

and
caused

And

And

And

whan

The

nor

otherwise
than

tyme
:
and
so
thus
they
were
agreed
.
Than
the
lady
retourned
to
her
castell
/
&
caused
the
siege
to
be
reysed
/
for
she
shewed
letters
fro
the

contayning
the

.
Than
they

&
the

:
and
also
yelded

castell
of

whiche
partayned

Thus
was
all
Poictou
/
Xainton

and
Rochell
quyte
delyuered
fro
the

And
whan
the

and
sawe
no

than

and

:
suche

The

And

so
yssued

and
with

a

/
and
the
englysshmen
were
about
fourscore
and
they
were
of
ser
Hugh
Caurelles
company
/
but
he
was
nat
there
hymselfe
/
he
was
styll
with
the

.
Howbeit
there
were
sixe
knightes
&
many
squiers
/
and
they
were
come
thyder
to
reuenge
their
companye
/
that
were
ouerthrowen
before
.
As
soone
as
the
frenchemen
were
out
of
the
gate
/
they
founde
incontynent
the
englisshmen
/
who
couched
their
speares
and
ranne
in
among
the
frenchmen
/
and
the
frenchmen
opyned
and
let
them
passe
through
them
/
&
so
they
dyd
:
wherby
there
rose
suche
a
dust
/
that
one
coude
nat
se
nor
knowe
another
.
Than
the
frenchmen
closed
them selfe
agayne
toguyder
/
and
cryed
our
lady
of
Rybamont
:
there
was
many
a
man
ouerthrowen
on
bothe
ꝑtes
.
The
lorde
of
Chyn
had
a
plummet
of
leed
in
his
hande
/
wherwith
he
brake
bassenetes
/
suche
as
he
attayned
vnto
for
he
was
a
bygge
and
a
goodly
knyght
/
and
well
formed
of
all
his
membres
.
At
last
he
had
suche
a
stroke
on
the
helme
/
that
he
had
nere
fallen
/
and
a
squyer
had
nat
kept
hym
vp
/
whiche
stroke
greued
hym
after
as
longe
as
he
lyued
.
Ther
were
dyuers
englysshmen
had
gret
marueyle
/
in
that
they
saw
his
penonsemblable
to
the
armes
/
without
difference
of
the
lorde
Coucy
/
and
sayd
.
Howe
is
it
:
that
the
lorde
Coucy
hath
sent
men
hyder
to
be
agaynst
vs
/
and
he
ought
to
be
our
frende
.
So
ther
was
a
harde
batell
:
howe
be
it
finally
the
englysshmen
were
taken
and
slayne
/
but
fewe
that
scaped
.
The
lorde
Bousiers
had
prisoners
/
two
bretherne
of
Pennenort
/
a
knight
and
a
squyer
.
And
sir
Johan
of

had
other
two
prisoners
/
than
they
went
to
Rybamont
foreby
the
englysshe
hoost
/
withoute
any
scrimysshe
.
And
also
they
forbare
to
brenne
in
the
lande
of
the
lorde
Coucy
/
or
to
do
any
domage
there
/
who
was
as
than
in
Lombardy
/
and
medlyd
nothyng
with
the
warr
of
Fraunce
.
Than
the
englysshmen
went
and
loged
in
the
valeys
vnder
Laon
/
and
therabout
Brueres
and
Crescy
.
And
they
dyd
moche
domage
in
the
countre
of
Lonnoys
/
howbeit
before
that
tyme
/
the
frenche
kyng
had
caused
all
the
goodes
in
the
playne
countre
to
be
had
into
the
forteresses
/
townes
/
and
castelles
/
whiche
were
so
well
prouyded
for
/
that
the
englissmen
coude
haue
none
aduantage
/
to
aproche
to
assayle
any
of
them
.
And
also
the
englysshemen
were
nat
in
mynde
to
enploy
their
season
ther
about
/
for
they
had
rather
that
the
frenche
kyng
had
sente
downe
power
of
men
to
haue
fought
with
them
/
but
the
frenche
kyng
alwayes
commaunded
in
no
wyse
to
gyue
them
batayle
/
but
wolde
that
they
shulde
be
euer
pursued
/
&
kept
shorte
.
And
euery
night
the
frenchmen
laye
in
fortresses
/
and
in
the
day
pursued
th
englysshe
host
/
who
went
euer
close
toguyder
.
SO
it
happed
that
beyonde
Soissous
in
a
mornyng
/
a
sixscore
of
th
englysshe
speres
ran
ouer

They

The

And
whan
th englisshmen
sawe

they
rested
and
toke

and
sent
to
their

behynde

whiche
was
a

And
sir

was

rode
thyderwarde
without

his

solowed
after
as

and
so
in

he
was
stryken
through
the

/
and
so
he
fell
downe
deed
.
Th
englysshmen
fought
valiantly

but
finally
they
were
slayne
and
taken

There
were

So

/
and
set
forthe

and
brigantes
well
pauessed

and
there
they
made

.
The

And

and
specially
the

Than
the

chefe
leader
of
them
/
and
with

the
lorde
de

and
dyuers

And
so
they
all

into
Normandy
to
the
fortresses
and
castels
of
the
kyng
of
Nauarre
/
whiche
were
fayre

And

Than

The

so
that

Than

And

And
thyder

all
those
that

of
Deureux
by
the
frenche
constable
.
And
whan
they
were
ther
all
togyder
/
they
were
a
great
nombre
of
chosen
men
:
and
so
they
prouyded
well
for
the
fortresse
/
for
they
beleued
to
be
beseged
.
Whan
the
constable
and
the
lorde
de
la
Ryuer
with
their
company
/
had
won
all
in
the
countie
of
Deureux
/
so
that
nothyng
was
left
aparant
for
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
but
all
was
vnclosed
&
vnder
the
obeysance
of
the
french
king
.
Than
they
came
before
Chierbourc
/
which
was
strong
and
nobly
founded
/
first
by
Julyus
Cesar
/
whan
he
conquered
Englande
:
and
there
is
a
port
of
the
see
.
The
frenchmen
layed
siege
rounde
about
it
:
except
on
the
see
syde
/
and
so
they
determyned
nat
to
departe
thens
/
tyll
they
had
won
it
.
Sir
Robert
de
Roux
and
his
company
within
/
made
many
issues
day
&
night
for
ther
was
no
ther
day
nor
nyght
/
but
that
there
was
a
scrimysshe
.
The
frenchmen
coude
seke
for
no
dede
of
armes
/
but
that
they
founde
ynowe
euer
to
answere
them
.
So
there
were
many
slayne
and
taken
/
aswell
on
the
one
parte
as
on
the
other
durynge
the
siege
/
whiche
lasted
all
the
remynaunt
of
the
sommer
.
Thanne
sir
Olyuere
of
Clesquy
/
made
on
a
day
a
busshement
/
and
so
began
to
scrimisshe
:
And
than
the
frenche
men
were
driuen
backe
to
the
busshment
.
Than
sir
Olyuer
of

came
out
of
his
enbusshment
and
all
his
/
and
ranne
feirlly
at
th
englysshmen
and
naueroyes
.
Ther
was
an
harde
encountre
on
bothe
parties
/
many
a
man
borne
to
the
erthe
slayne
/
hurte
/
taken
&
rescued
:
fynally
sir
Olyuer
of
Clesquy
was
taken
prisoner
/
by
asquier
of
Nauer
called
John
Coq
/
and
so
was
put
into
Chierbourge
.
And
so
the
scrymysshe
ended
/
more
to
the
domage
of
the
frenchmen
than
to
the
englisshmen
/
and
sir
Olyuer
was
sent
in

/
&
there
abode
as
prisoner
a
long
space
at
London
/
and
after
he
was
put

Thus
in
great
cost
&
charge
/
the
frenchemen
abode
styll
a
great
parte
of
the
wynter
with
lytell
conquest
/
and
so
they
sawe
well
how
they
lost
their
tyme
with
lyeng
ther.
They
thought
well
that
Chierbourc
was
inprignable
/
for
alwayes
they
might
be
newe
refresshed
with

and

The

knewe
no

comyng

This

so
euery

The

In

The
lorde
of
Langurant
was
mounted
vpon
a
ladder

his
swerde
in
his

one
of
the
first
/
and
payned
him selfe
moch
to
haue
entred
first
into
the
towne
/
nat
for
wynning
of
the
fyue
hundred
frankes
/
but
to
exalt
his
name
:
for
he
was
sore
displeased
with
the
lorde
of
Duras
/
bycause
he
was
tourned
so
lightly
englysshe
agayne
.
The
lorde
Langurant
dyde

also
strangers
had

He
auaunced
hymselfe
so
moche
forwarde
/
that
he
put
his

in
great
ieopardy
.
For
they
within
by
clene
force
rased

/
who
folowed
him
so
nere
that
he
rouered
hym
with
his

.
And
the
lorde
and
he
togyder
discended
downe
the
ladder
lytell
&
lytell
/
and
in
their
dyscendyng
they
receyued
on
the

many
a
great
stroke
.
they
were
greatly
praysed
of
all

Also

In

eche
of

doyng
marueyls

and
at
another
lope
of
the
wall
on
a
ladder
/
there
was
the
lorde
of
Sereell
/
and
fought
hande
to
hande
with
his
enemyes
/
so
that
euery
man
that
sawe
hym
sayd
/
if
there
were
any
likely
to
entre
in
to
the
towne
/
he
was
semyng
to
be
the
first
.
The
knight
dyde
nat
aduenture
hym selfe
all
onely
for
the
profyte
/
but
rather
to
gette
honour
:
but
the
fortunes
of
warre
be
ryght
peryllous
/
and
so
it
happed
to
hym
/
for
he
was
putte
downe
feersly
with
a
glayue
/
so
that
he
fell
downe
to
the
botome
of
the
dyke
/
and
with
the
fall
brake
his
necke
/
and
ther
he
dyed
.
And
in
lyke
case
dyed
an
other
squyer
of
Bretayne
/
who
bare
in
his
armes
:
goules
/
two
cheurons

of

the

that
day
a
good
knyght
/
&
shewed
well
by
his
dedes
howe
he
was
a
true
frenche

So
thus
byforce
the
towne
of

was
conquered
/
and
the
first
that
entred
was
sir
Trystram
of

and
great

And

and
the

These

departed
whan
they
were
redy
/
and
went
&
layed
siege
before
Mortayne
/
whiche
was
the
fayrest
and
strongest
castell
standyng
on
the
ryuer
of
Garon
/
and
nere
to
the
mouthe
of
the

.
Thus
yuan
and
his

layed
siege
before
Mortaigne
/
and
made
bastydes
lytell
and

and
prepared

for
they
knewe
well
by

they
shulde
neuer
wynne
the
castell
/
nor
by
no
way
:
sauyng
by
long
siege
and
by
famyne
.
Ther
yuan
ordayned
four
bastydes
about
the
castell
/
so
that
none
coude
reuitayle
the
towne
/
nother
by

nor
by

.
And
the
yong
knightes
and
squyers
/
desiryng
to
auaunce
their
bodyes
/
went
often
tymes
to
the
barryers
of
the
castell
and
scrimysshed
with
them
within

and
they

.
And
so
bytwene
them
ther
was
done
many
a
proper
feate
of
armes
.
Within
the
castell
there
was
a
knight
called
the

/
who
was
a
gascoyn
a
right
valyant
knight
/
&
a
good
man
of

/
by
whose
counsaile
they
within
were
ruled
/
as
moche
as
by
their
capitayns
.
Wyne
and
vitayls
they
had
within
sufficyent
/
but
of
other
small
necessaries
they
had
great
scarcyte
durynge

siege
.
Kyng
Charles
of
Fraunce
though
he
helde
hymselfe
at
Parys
/
and
sported
him
at
his
pleasur
without
armyng
of
his
owne
person
.
yet
he
kept
warr
in
diuers
places
agaynst
th englisshmen
his
enemys
and
gatte
hym
alyaunces
/
as
well
within
the
realme
/
as
in
any
other
countrey
aboute
/
more
than
any
of
his
predecessours
/
of
foure

fyue
kynges
had
before
.
And
greatly
he
helde
them
in
loue
/
suche
as
he
thought
to
haue
any

by
.
And
bycause
he
sawe
well
kyng
Richard
of
Englande
was
but
yong

and
discorde
.
Therfore
he

that
they

In

moche

so
it
happed
that

Than

/
suche
as
desyred
to
be
reuenged
of
the

answered

/
and
it
were

or

or

.
This
aunswere
pleased
greatly
the
kyng

and
thanked
them
all
/
and
ther
the
kyng
ordeyned
four

And

of

sir
Archambalt
Duglas
/
and
the

of
the

/
sir
Robert
Uersy
.
And
so
they
made
their
somons
to
be
at
a
certayne
day
at
Morlane
/
and
in
the
makynge
of
this
assemble
/
there
departed
fro
them
a
valiantsquier
of
Scotland
called
Alysander
Ramsey
/
who
thought
to
enter
prise
to
acheue
a
great
feate
of
armes
/
&
toke
with
him
fortie
well
mounted
/
and
rode
so
long
by
night
priuely
that
by
the
day
in
the
morning
he
came
to
Berwyke
whiche
was
englisshe
/
&
capitayn
of
the
towne
was
a
squyer
of
the
erle
of
Northumberlandes
/
named
Johan
Byset
:
and
in
the
castell
was
capitayne
a
valyant
knight
/
called
sir
Robert
Abenton
.
Whan
the
scotes
were
come
to
Berwyke
/
they
kept
them selfe
priuy
and
sente
a
spye
to
the
towne
and
to
the
castell
/
to
se
in
what
condicyon
it
was
/
the
spye
entred
downe
in
to
the
dykꝭ
/
where
ther
was
no
water
nor
none
coude
abyde
there
/
for
it
was
all
a
quycke
boylyng
sande
.
And
so
the
spye
loked
and
harkened
all
aboute
/
but
he
coulde
nat
here
nor
se
no
creature
/
and
so
he
returned
and
shewed
all
that
to
his
maister
.
Than
Alysander
Ramsey
auaunsed
for
the
/
and
brought
all
his
company
priuely
into
the
dykes
/
and
had
with
them
ladders
/
and
so
dressed
them
vp
to
the
walles
.
Alysander
was
one
of
the
first
the

vp
with
his
swerde
in
his
hande
/
and
so
entred
in
to
the
castell
/
and
all
his
company
folowed
hym
/
for
there
was
none
that
withstode
them
.
And
whan
they
were
all
within
/
than
they
went
to
the
chefe
towre
/
wher
as
the
capitayne
was
a
slepe
/
and
so
there
sodenly
with
great
axes
they
brake

the
dore
.
The
capitayne
sodenly
awoke
&
had
slept
all
night
/
and
had
made
but
small
watche
the
which
he
derely
bought
.
And
so
opened
his
chambre
dore
/
wenyng
to
him
the
noyse
had
be
made
by
some
of
his
owne
soudiers
that
wold
haue
robbed
or
murdred
hym
in
his
bedde
/
bycause
he
had
displeased
them
the

before
/
&
so
lept
out
of
a
wyndowe
downe
into
the
dykes
in
great
feare
/
without
order
or
good
aduyse
/
so
that
with
the
fall
he
brake
his
necke
and
ther
he
dyed
.
The
watchmen
were
halfe
a
slepe
and
herde
the
noyse
and
woke
/
and
parceyued
well
howe
the
castell

Johan
Byset
capitayne
of

/
hearyng
the
voice
of
a

armed
him
/
and
caused
all
them
of
the
towne
to

/
and
so
drewe
all
before

/
and
herde
well
the

that
the

made
within
/
but
they
coulde
nat
entre

for
the

Than
the

Alysander
Ramsey
and
his

To

And
so
they
toke

And

And
so
they
abode
in
a
fayre
playne
without
Berwike

in
two

in

order
.
And
they
had
nat
been

So

Sayeng

on

my

hath
made
this

and
taken

.
It
wyll
tourne
you

to
great
blame
if
ye

thus
/
and
paraduentur
herafter
/
ther
is
none
that
wyll
be
so
hasty
to
inpart
suche

case
.
They
than
answered
and
sayd
:
they
coude
nat
amende
it
/
nor
it
was
nat
behouefull
that
so
many
noblemen
as
was
ther
/
shulde
put
them selfe
in
aduenture
to
be
lost
/
for
the
rescuynge
of

And
than
they
determyned
to
retourne
agayn
into
their
owne
countre

and
lodge
on
the
mountayns
besyde
the
ryuer
of
Twyde
/
and
so
they
withdrue
thyder
at
good
layser
.
And
whan
the
erle
of
Northumberlande
/
and
the
erle
of
Notyngham
/
and
the
other
barones
of
Englande
parceyued
that
the
scottes
came
nat
forwarde
/
they
sent
forthe
their
currours
to
knowe
where
they
were
become

and
they
brought
wordehow
they
were
gone
towarde
Morlan

beyond
the

And
than
agaynst
night
the
englysshmen
drewe
agayne
to
their
logynges
and
made
good
watche
that
night
/
and
in
the
morning
euery
man
was
redy
aparelled
to
go
and
assayle
the
castell
/
&
so
there
was
a
ferse
assaute
/
whiche
endured
almoost
all
the
day
.
ye
neuer
se
more
hardyer
men
of
so
fewe
/
than
the
scottes
were
/
nor
that
better
defended
a
place
than
they
dyde
.
For
the
englysshmen
had
ladders
/
whiche
they
reared
vp
to
the
walles
/
and
the
englysshmen
mounted
vp
on
them
with
targes
before
them
/
and
so
came
and
fought
with
the
scottes
hande
to
hande
/
and
some
of
them
cast
downe
into
the
dikes
.
And
that
thyng
the
moost
troubled
the
scottes
was
the
archers
/
who
shot
so
holy
toguyder
/
that
almoost
ther
was
none
durst
come
to
the
defence
of
the
wall
.
So
long
this
assaut
contynued

that
at
last
the
englysshmen
entred
in
byforce
/
and
there
slewe
as

them
that
were
within
that
scaped
/
but
all
were
slayne
:
except
Alysander
Ramsay
/
who
was
taken
prisoner
.
Thus
the
castell
of
Berwyke
was
delyuered
fro
the
scottes
:
and
the
erlemade
Johan
Byset
capitayne
there
/
and
he
newly
repayred
the

and
made

And

wherof
the

And

in

wise
so

and
so
they
ordred
their
archers
and
set
them
on
the
wynge
/
and
th
englisshmen
cryed
that
day
our
lady
of
Arleton
.
There
beganne
a
ferse
recounter
/
and
archers
began
to
shote
/
and
men
of
armes
began
to
styrre
.
The
scottes
were
so
great
a
nombre
/
that
the
archers
coulde
nat
take
hede
in
euery
place
/
there
was
bytwene
the
ꝑties
many
a
goodly
course
of
a●mes
/
and
many
a
man
ouerthrowen
to
the
erth
dyuers
taken
and
reskewed
agayne
at
the
begynnynge
.
Sir
Archambalt
Duglas
was
a
mighty
knight
and
a
●ygge
/
and
sore
feared
of
his
enemyes
/
whan
it
came
to
the
aprochynge
he
lyght
a
foote
/
and
had
in
his
handes
a
longe
swerd
/
wherof
the
blade
was
two
els
of
length
it
was
to
heuy
for
any
other
man
lyghtly
to
lyft
vp
fro
the
erthe
/
but
for
him
it
was
lyght
ynough
and
he
gaue
therwith
suche
strokes
/
that
whome
so
euer
he
hytte
full
/
wente
to
the
erthe
:
so
that
there
was
nat
the
hardiest
there
/
of
the
englissh
parte
/
but
that
refused
his
strokes
.
There
was
a
sore
batayle
and
well
fought
/
as
longe
as
hi●
endured
/
but
that
was
nat
long
/
for
the
scottes
were
thre
agaynst
one
.
I
say
nat
nay
:
but
that
the
englisshmen
bare
them selfe
ryght
valyantly
/
howe
be
it
fynally
they
were
dyscomfytted
/
and
sir
Thomas
Mosegraue
taken
prisoner
/
and
his
sonne
also
:
and
dyuers
other
knightes
and
squyers
/
so
that
the
scottes
had
a
sixe
score
of
good
prisoners
/
and
the
chase
endured
to
the
ryuer
of
Twyde
/
and
dyuers
were
slayne
.
After
this
disconfytur
/
the
scottes
drewe
into
their
owne
countre
/
and
determyned
to
go
to
E●enbourge
/
for
they
knewe
by
their
prisoners
that
the
erle
of
Northumberlande
/
and
th
erle
of
Notyngham
were
in
the
countrey
/
by
the
ryuer
of
Twyde
in
the
way
towardes
Roseburge
/
and
howe
they
were
men
ynowe
/
to
fyght
with
the
power
of
Scotlande
for
a
daye
/
wherfore
they
thought
they
myght
well
br●ke
vp
their
army
/
and
to
drawe
in
to
saue
garde
to
kepe
their
prisoners
.
they
toke
a
better
aduyse
to
drawe
homward
/
for
if
they
had
gone
agayne
to
their
●lde
lodgynge
/
they
had
been
in
a
great
aduenture
to
haue
ben
beaten
/
as
I
shall
shewe
you
howe
.
THe
erle
of
Northumberlande
/
and
the
erle
of
Notyngham
/
and
the
ba●ones
of
Englande
/
whan
they
departed
fro
Berwyke
/
&
sir
Thomas
Mosegraue
departed
fro
them
/
they
had
knowlege
by
their
spyes
/
that
the
scottes
were
lodged
at
Hondbray
/
wherof
they
were
ryght
ioyouse
/
and
soo
determyned
to
come
on
them
in
the
nyght
/
and
s●rymysshe
with
them
.
and
so
they
came
thyder
the
same
night
that
they
were
departed
in
the
mornynge
/
but
it
rayned
so
sore
that
they
coulde
nat
attayne
to
their
entreprise
/
and
so
lay
in
the
woodes
tyll
●he
mornynge
/
than
they
sent
out
their
spyes
to
knowe
where
the
scottes
were
become
/
&
they
brought
worde
agayne
howe
●he
scottes
were
departed
and
howe
they
coulde
fynde
none
.
Tha●
they
drue
towardes
Mauros
to
here
some
ty●yngꝭ
of
sir
Thomas
Mosegraue
/
and
sent
a
longe
the
ryuer
currours
to
s●
if
they
coulde
here
any
tidynges
of
the
scottes
.
After
the
●isco●●s●ture
of
the
felde
saint
Gylle
/
as
ye
haue
harde
before
the
currorrs
met
with
some
of
their
owne
company
sleynge
as
falt
as
they
myght
/
and
so
they
shewed
all
that
euer
they
knewe
of
the
batayle
/
and
the
currous
retourned
/
and
had
with
them
suche
as
they
mette
slyeng
/
and
so
tolde
all
the
certaynte
of
the
batayle
/
but
they
coude
nat
tell
howe
many
were
slayne
/
nor
howe
many
were
taken
.
Whan
the
englissh
lordes
herde
these
tydynges
/
they
were
than
more
pensyue
than
before
/
and
good
cause
why
.
They
were
dyspleased
for
two
causes
:
one
bycause
they
hadde
lost
their
men
/
that
other
bicause
they
coude
nat
fynde
the
scottes
/
whom
they
desyred
so
sore
to
fyght
withall
.
so
they
wolde
fayne
haue
folowed
but
they
wyst
nat
what
way
the
scottes
were
gone
/
and
nyght
drewe
on
.
than
they
went
to
Mauros
and
lodged
there
/
and
incontynent
trewe
worde
came
to
them
of
the
batayle
/
and
howe
sir
Thomas
Mosgraue
and
his
sonne
/
and
sirscoremen
of
armes
with
them
were
taken
prisoners
and
the
scottes
led
them
to
Edemborowe
.
Than
thenglisshe
lordes
sawe
well
that
it
behoued
them
to
bere
this
domage
as
for
that
present
tyme
/
bicause
they
coude
nat
amende
it
/
so
they
passed
that
nyght
aswell
as
they
myght
/
&
in
the
mornynge
they
dysloged
/
and
the
lorde
Percy
erle
of
Northumberlande
/
gaue
leue
to
euery
man
to
departe
home
/
&
he
went
into
his
owne
countrey
.
Thus
brake
vp
that
iourney
/
and
parte
of
the
scottes
went
to
Edenbourg●
and
th
erle
Duglas
and
his
sonne
abode
styll
on
the
way
to
Alquest
.
And
great
tidynges
ran
ouer
all
Scotlande
/
of
the
iourney
that
their
men
had
made
/
and
so
knyghtes
&
squiers
toke
their
pleasure
with
their
prisoners
/
and
raunsomed
them
curtesly
as
they
lyst
.
¶
Nowe

of
Scotlande
for
this
presente
tyme
/
and
lette

of
other

¶
The

All

And

¶
Howe
the
warre
began
agayne
bitwene
the
naueroyse
and
the
frenchemen
/
and
of
the
begynning
of
the
cisme
of
holy
churche
.
Ca.
CCC
.xxvi.
AFter
the
deth
of
the
frenche
quene
/
dyed
also
the
qwene
of
Nauer
/
suster
germayne
to
the
frenche
kyng
.
And
after
the
deth
of
this
qwene
of
Nauer
/
great
murmuryng
rose
bytwene
the
sagemen
&
customyers
of
the
countie
of
Uire
/
whiche
is
in
Normandy
/
the
whiche
by
ryght
successyon
of
their
mother
shulde
●all
to
the
kyng
of
Nauers
children
who
were
as
than
within
age
/
and
vnder
the
rule
and
kepynge
of
their
vncle
/
kynge
Charles
of
Fraunce
.
and
kyng
Charles
of
Nauer
was
had
in
such
suspect
before
tyme
in
that
he
had
made
/
and
consented
and
reysed
so
many
euilles
and
inconuenyences
in
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
that
he
was
nat
worthy
to
holde
any
herytage
in
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
vnder
the
shadowe
of
his
children
.
The
same
season
ther
came
out
of
Acquitayne
the
constable
of
Fraunce
/
who
hadde
ben
all
that
season
with
the
duke
of
Aniou
.
and
brought
with
him
in
his
company
the
lorde
Mucydent
of
Gascon
/
to
se
the
kyng
/
and
to
be
acquaynted
with
him
/
and
so
he
dyd
.
Bytwene
the
kyng
and
the
constable
ther
was
many
secrete
counsayls
/
of
the
state
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
and
of
Nauer
/
whiche
was
nat
sodenly
knowen
we
shall
shortly
speke
of
that
mater
.
But
iustly
to
cronycle
all
matters
that
fell
in
the
same
season
in
the
worlde
/
I
shall
shewe
you
of
the
begynning
of
the
pestylence
and
inconuenyens
/
that
began
in
the
churche
of
god
/
wherby
all
christendome
was
in
great
trouble
and
varyance
:
and
therby
many
great
mischefes
grewe
and
folowed
.
yE
haue
harde
here
before
/
howe
pope
Gregorie
the
.xi.
of
that
name
/
was
in
the
cytie
of
Auygnon
/
&
whan
he
sawe
that
he
coude
finde
no
maner
of
peace
to
be
had
bitwene
the
kynges
of
Englande
and
Fraunce
/
wherwith
he
was
in
great
dyspleasure
/
for
he
had
greatly
trauelled
there
about
/
&
had
made
his
cardynalles
to
do
the
same
.
Than
he
aduysed
him selfe
/
and
had
a
deuocion
to
go
and
reuyset
Rome
and
the
see
apostolyke
/
the
whiche
saynt
Peter
and
saynt
Poule
had
edefyed
.
He
had
made
before
promyse
/
that
if
euer
he
came
to
the
degre
to
be
pope
/
he
wold
neuer
kepe
his
see
/
but
there
as
saynt
Peter
kepte
his
and
ordayned
it
.
This
pope
was
a
man
of
feble
complection
and
sickly
/
and
endured
moche
payne
more
than
any
other
.
And
he
thus
beyng
in
Auignon
,
was
so
sore
lette
with
the
besynesses
of
Fraunce
/
and
so
sore
traueyled
with
the
kyng
and
his
brethern
/
that
with
moch
payne
he
had
any
leyser
to
take
hede
any
thyng
to
him selfe
/
or
to
his
churche
.
Than
he
sayd
to
him selfe
/
he
wolde
go
farther
of
fro
them
to
be
at
more
rest
/
and
so
he
caused
prouysyon
to
be
made
on
the
ryuer
of
Gennes
/
and
all
the
wayes
as
he
shuld
passe
/
as
it
apertayned
to
suche
an
highe
astate
as
he
was
/
and
than
he
sayd
to
his
cardynals
.
Sirs
:
make
you
redy
for
I
woll
to
Rome
/
of
that
mocyon
his
cardynalles
were
sore
abasshed
and
displeased
/
for
they
loued
nat
the
romayns
/
and
so
they
wolde
fayne
haue
tourned
his
purpose
/
but
they
coude
nat
.
And
whan
the
frenche
kyng
knewe
therof
,
he
was
sore
displeased
/
for
he
thought
he
hadde
the
pope
nerer
at
hande
there
/
than
in
any
other
place
.
than
the
kyng
wrote
incontynent
to
his
brother
the
duke
of
Aniowe
who
was
at
Tholouse
/
signyfieng
him
that
after
the
syght
of
his
letters
/
he
shulde
go
to
Auignon
to
the
pope
/
and
breke
his
voiage
to
Rome
if
it
were
possyble
.
The
duke
dyd
as
the
kyng
commaunded
him
/
and
so
came
to
Auignon
/
wher
the
cardynalles
receyued
him
with
great
ioy
/
and
so
was
lodged
in
the
popes
palays
the
ofter
therby
to
speke
with
the
pope
ye
may
well
knowe
he
spake
with
the
pope
and
shewed
him
dyuers
reasons
to
haue
broken
his
purpose
/
but
the
pope
wolde
in
noo
wyse
consent
therto
/
nor
take
any
hede
of
any
besinesses
on
this
syde
the
mountayns

But
the
pope

the
duke
full
puyssance
to
do
what
he
myght

reseruyng
certayne
cases

/
the
whiche
he
myght
nat
gyue
to
no
man
/
nor
put
them
out
of
his
owne
handes
.
Whan
the
duke
sawe
he
coude
nat
come
to
his
entent
/
for
no
reason
nor
fayre
wordis
that
he
coude
shewe
/
he
toke
leaue
of
the
pope
/
and
sayd
at
his
departyng
.
Holy
father

into
a
good
countre
among
suche
people
where
as
ye

/
and

trybulacion
/
for
if
ye

and
so

Than
the
romayns
who

shal
be
lordis
and
maysters
of
all
the
cardynalles
/
and
shall
make

/
Howe beit
for
all
these
wordes
and
many
other
/
the
pope
neuer
rested
tyll
he
was
on
his
way
/
and
so
came
to
Marcyll
where
as
the
galeys
of
Gennes
were
redy
to
receyue
him
/
and
the
duke
retourned
agayne
to
Tholouse
.
Pope
Gregorie
entred
into
the
see
at
Marcyll
with
a
great
company
/
and
had
good
wynde
and
so
tooke

/
and
there
newe
refresshed
his
galays
/
&
so
toke
the
see
agayne
and
sayled
tyll
he
came
to
Rome
.
The
romayns
were
ryght
ioyfull
of
his
comynge
/
and
all
the
chiefe
of
Rhome
mounted
on
their
horses
/
and
so
brought
him
in
to
Rome
with
great
tryumphe
/
and
lodged
in
saynt
Peters
palys
.
and
often
tymes
he
vysited
a
churche

called
our

the
great

within
Rome
.
Wherin
he
had
great
pleasure
/
&
dyd
make
therin
many
costly

.
And
within
a
whyle
after
his
comynge
to
Rome
he
dyed
/
&
was
buryed
in
the
sayd
church
and
there

was
made
as

The

This

he
lyued
nat

thre
dayes

shall
shewe
you
why

The
romayns
who
desyred
to

were
so
ioyfull
of
this

they
toke

who
was
a
hundred

they

Cap.
CCC
.xxvii.
OF
the
dethe
of
this
pope
the
cardynalles
were
right
sorowfull
/
for
they
saw
well
howe
the
matter
shulde
nat
goo
well
to
passe
.
For
they
had
thought
if
the
pope
had
lyued
/
to
haue
dissimuled
amonge
the
romayns
for
two
or
thre
yeres
/
and
at
the
laste
to
haue
brought
the
see
apostolyke
/
in
to
some
other
place
than
at
Rome
/
at
Napoles
/
or
at
Gennes
/
out
of
the
daunger
of
the
romayns
/
but
the
dethe
of
the
pope
brake
their
purpose
.
Than
the
cardynalles
went
agayne
in
to
the
conclaue
in
greater
daunger
than
they
were
in
before
/
for
the
romayns
assembled
them
togyder
agayne
before
the
conclaue
/
and
made
semblant
to
breke
it
vp
and
to
slee
them
all
/
if
they
dyde
nat
chose
a
pope
/
acordyng
to
their
myndes
and
cryed
to
the
cardynalles
&
sayd
.
Sirs
aduyse
yowe
well
/
if
ye
delyuer
vs
a
pope
romayne
we
be
content
/
or
els
we
woll
make
your
herdꝭ
reeder
than
your
hattes
be
suche
wordes
and
manasshes
abasshed
greatly
the
cardynall
/
for
they
hadde
rather
a
dyed
confessours
then
martyrs
.
Than
to
bryng
them selfe
out
of
that
daunger
and
parell
/
they
made
a
pope
/
but
he
was
none
of
the
colledge
of
cardynals
/
he
was
archbysshop
of
Bare
a
great
clerke
/
who
greatly
had
traueyled
for
the
welthe
of
holy
churche
.
with
his
promocyon
of
papalyte
/
the
romayns
were
a
peased
/
for
the
cardynall
of
Genne
put
out
his
heed
out
at
a
wyndowe
of
the
conclaue
/
and
sayd
on
hygh
to
the
people
of
Rome
.
Sirs
:
apease
you
/
for
you
haue
a
pope
romayne
/
and
that
is
Bartylme
we
des
Angles
/
archbysshop
of
Bare
.
The
people
aunswered
all
with
one
voyce
:
than
we
be
content
/
the
same
archebysshoppe
was
nat
as
than
at
Rome
.
I
thynke
he
was
in
Napoles
.
Than
he
was
incontynent
sent
for
/
of
the
whiche
tydynges
he
was
ryght
glad
/
and
so
came
to
Rome
/
and
at
his
comyng
there
was
great
feest
made
to
hym
.
And
so
he
had
all
the
ryghtes
that
parteyned
to
the
papalyte
/
&
was
called
Urban
the
sirt
of
that
name
/
the
romayns
had
great
ioy
:
his
creacyon
was
signifyed
to
all
the
churches
of
christentie
.
And
also
to
emperours
/
kynges
/
dukes
/
and
erles
/
and
the
cardynalles
sent
worde
to
all
their
frendes
/
that
he
was
chosen
by
good
and
trewe
eleciyon
howbeit
some
of
them
repented
them
after
/
that
they
had
spoken
so
largely
in
the
mater
.
This
pope
renounced
all
graces
gyuen
before
also
so
dyuers
departed
fro
their
countres
and
places
/
and
went
to
Rome
to
haue
grace
.
¶
Now
let
vs
leaue
somwhat
to
speke
of
this
mater
/
and
lette
vp
retourne
to
our
princypall
history
of
the
besynesses
of
Fraunce
.
yE
haue
harde
right
well
here
before
/
howe
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
who
hadde
to
his
wyfe
the
freuche
kynges
suster
/
for
the
loue
of
the
one
&
of
the
other
/
it
was
sayd
and
purposed
that
the
herytage
of
the
chyldren
of
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
the
whiche
was
fallen
to
them
by
the
ryght
of
their
mother
/
the
the
french
kyng
their
vncle
by
the
succession
of
his
suster
ought
to
haue
power
therof
in
name
of
the
chyldren
seyng
the
chyldren
were
in
his
kepynge
/
wherby
all
the
lande
that
the
kynge
of
Nauer
helde
in
Normandy
/
shulde
be
in
the
french
kynges
hand
/
as
long
as
his
nephewes
were
with
in
age
.
Of
all
these
maters
the
kyng
of
Nauer
doughted
greatly
/
for
he
knewe
well
the
vsage
and
custome
of
Fraunce
.
Than
he
aduysed
him
of
two
thynges
/
the
one
was
to
sende
the
bysshop
of
Panpilone
and
sir
Martyn
Car
/
in
to
Fraunce
to
the
kynge
/
Desyring
hym
hertely
/
that
for
good
loue
and
fauoure
to
send
him
his
two
sonnes
/
Charles
and
Peter
.
and
if
it
pleased
him
nat
to
send
hym
bothe
two
/
than
at
lest
to
sende
him
his
sonne
Charles
/
bycause
he
was
towardes
a
treaty
for
a
maryage
for
him
/
with
the
doughter
of
the
kyng
of
Castell
.
The
second
thing
was
/
nat
withstandyng
that
he
sent
thus
into
Fraunce
/
yetsecretly
he
sent
also
in
to
Normandy
/
to
visyte
and
to
refresshe
the
castelles
there
/
pertaynyng
to
hym
:
to
th
entent
that
the
frenchmen
shulde
nat
take
them
in
to
their
handes
/
for
he
feared
if
they
had
them
ones
in
theis
possessions
/
he
shulde
nat
haue
them
agayn
whan
he
wolde
.
And
so
he
sent
two
valyaunt
men
of
armes
naueroyse
/
in
whom
he
had
great
trust
the
one
called
Peter
Basylle
/
and
the
other
Ferando
into
Normandy
/
for
the
sayd
enten●
The
fyrst
messangers
went
into
Fraunce
/
as
the
bysshop
of
Panpylone
/
and
sir
Marten
Car
/
who
spake
with
the
kyng
at
great
leysar
/
right
humbly
recommaundyng
the
kyng
of
Nauer
to
him
desyringe
in
his
name
/
that
he
wolde
sende
to
hym
his
two
sonnes
.
The
kyng
answered
and
sayde
.
He
wolde
take
aduyse
and
counsayle
in
the
mater
.
And
so
after
they
were
answered
in
the
kynges
name
:
the
kyng
beyng
present
and
the
two
chyldren
/
also
his
nephewes
/
how
that
the
kynge
loued
them
right
entierly
.
Wherfore
they
coulde
nat
be
better
in
no
place
/
and
that
the
kyng
of
Nauerre
ought
to
be
content
rather
to
suffre
than
to
be
in
Fraunce
with
the
kyng
their
vncle
/
than
in
any
other
place
.
And
also
the
kyng
wyll
in
no
wyse
depart
fro
them
/
but
kepe
them
aboute
hym
in
their
estate
/
as
the
chyldren
of
a
kyng
/
and
lyke
his
nephewes
:
other
answere
the
messangers
coude
nat
haue
.
And
in
the
meane
season
that
these
messangers
were
in
Fraunce
/
Peter
of
Basylle
and
Ferando
/
arryued
at
Chyerbourge
with
great
prouisyon
/
the
whiche
they
putte
in
dyuers
places
/
in
townes
and
castels
of
the
kyng
of
Nauers
in
Normandy
.
And
so
they
visyted
in
the
kynge
of
Nauers
name
/
all
the
countie
of
Eureux
/
and
made
newe
officers
and
sette
in
people
at
their
pleasures
.
and
so
retourned
agayne
into
Nauerre
/
the
bysshoppe
of
Panpylone
and
sir
Marten
Carr
/
and
shewed
the
kynge
howe
they
had
spedde
in
Fraunce
.
The
kynge
of
Nauer
was
nat
very
gladde
of
that
tidyges
/
whan
he
coulde
nat
haue
his
owne
sonnes
.
And
so
began
a
great
hatered
in
his
hert
towarde
the
frenche
kynge
/
the
whiche
he
wolde
gladly
haue
shewed
if
he
had
might
/
but
the
puyssance
of
him selfe
was
nat
so
great
to
greue
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
without
helpe
and
ayde
of
some
other
realme
.
So
he
suffred
all
these
maters
/
tyll
he
had
better
cause
to
speke
/
and
more
displeasure
done
to
hym
/
than
he
hadde
as
than
.
THe
frenche
kyng
and
his
counsayle
were
well
enformed
/
that
the
kyng
of
Nauer
had
newe
reuitayled
his
castels
and
townes
in
Normandy
/
but
they
knewe
nat
for
what
entent
The
same
season
th
englysshmen
made
a
secret
army
on
the
see
of
two
thousand
men
of
armes
but
they
had
no
horse
with
them
.
Of
the
which
army
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
erle
of
Cambridge
were
chefe
capitayns
.
This
the
normans
reported
surely
to
the
french
kyng
/
and
this
armye
came
on
the
costes
of
Normandy
/
but
they
coulde
nat
tell
to
what
parte
they
wolde
drawe
vnto
.
Some
in
Fraunce
thought
that
the
kynge
of
Nauer
had
caused
them
to
come
in
to
Normandy
/
to
delyuer
to
them
suche
castelles
as
he
had
there
.
Wherfore
it
was
sayde
to
the
kynge
.
Sir
go
hastely
/
and
be
lorde
of
those
castels
before
:
for
ye
may
happe
to
tary
to
long
/
for
if
the
englisshmen
haue
them
/
they
may
do
moche
hurt
to
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
for
it
shall
be
one
of
the
best
entrees
that
they
can
haue
/
if
they
were
lordes
in
Normandy
/
of
the
cyties
/
townes
/
and
castels
/
belongyng
to
the
kyng
of
Nauer
.
The
same
season
there
was
taken
in
Fraunce
/
two
secrataries
of
the
kyng
of
Nauers
/
a
clerke
&
a
squyer
.
The
cleke
was
called
Peter
of
Tertre
and
the
squyer
James
of
Rue
/
and
they
were
brought
to
Parys
to
be
examyned
.
And
somoche
it
was
knowen
by
theym
of
the
secrettes
of
the
realme
of
Nauerre
/
howe
they
were
determyned
to
haue
done
domage
to
the
kyng
or
els
to
haue
poysoned
him
.
so
they
were
condempned
to
dye
/
and
execucyen
was
done
at
Parys
beheeded
and
quartred
.
These
tydynges
multyplied
so
on
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
that
the
frenche
kynge
sware
that
he
wolde
neuer
attende
to
none
other
thynge
/
tyll
he
had
ryd
Normandy
/
and
taken
in
to
his
possession
/
for
the
behoffe
of
his
nephewes
/
all
the
townes
and
castelles
that
the
kyng
of
Nauer
helde
there
.
so
dayly
ther
came
sore
informacions
to
the
frenche
kyng
agaynst
the
kynge
of
Nauer
.
Also
it
was
sayde
openly
/
that
the
duke
of
Lancastre
shulde
gyue
his
doughter
Kateryn
to
the
kynge
of
Nauer
/
and
so
by
that
meanes
the
kyng
shulde
gyue
to
the
duke
of
Lancastre
all
the
hole
countye
of
Deureur
.
These
wordes
were
lightly
beleued
in
Fraunce
for
the
kyng
of
Nauer
was
but
lytell
trusted
among
them
.
So
than
the
same
tyme
the
french
kynge
came
to
Rohan
/
and
there
assembled
a
great
army
of
men
of
warre
/
wherof
the
lorde
Coucy
/
&
the
lorde
de
la
Ryuer
were
chefe
capitayns
/
and
they
all
met
togyder
before
a
towne
called
Lyseur
/
a
cytie
in
Normandy
/
parteynynge
to
the
kyng
of
Nauer
.
and
these
two
lordes
had
the
two
sonnes
of
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
Charles
and
Peter
/
to
shewe
to
them
of
the
countrey
/
that
the
warre
that
they
made
was
in
the
name
of
the
two
chyldren
/
for
their
herytage
that
was
fallen
to
them
by
the
ryght
of
their
mother
/
And
howe
that
the
kynge
of
Nauer
had
no
right
to
kepe
them
/
but
the
moost
parte
of
the
men
of
armes
/
were
so
ioyned
in
loue
with
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
that
they
coude
nat
departe
out
of
his
seruyce
.
And
also
the
naueroyse
that
were
there
assembled
/
suche
as
the
kyng
of
Nauer
hadde
sent
thyder
/
caused
his
warr
to
be
the
more
easyer
and
fayre
.
¶
Howe
the
frenche
kynge
ceased
all
the
lande
of
the
kyng
of
Nauers
.

THe
frenche

commyssioners
to
Mountpellyer

For

ALytell

the

had
the
kyng

in
great
hate
/
and
knewe
couertly
by
some
of
the
king
of
Nauers
house
/
all
the
secremesse
bytwene
hym
and
the
kyng
of
Englande
:
and
howe
that
kyng
Henry
of
Castell
had
defyed
him
/
and
made
warre
agaynst
him
.
The
kyng
of
Nauer
left

¶
And
whan
he
was
in
the
see
he
hadde
wynde
at
wyll
/
and
arryued
in
Cornwall
/
and
so
rode
to
Wynsore
/
Where
as
kynge
Richarde
and
his
counsayle
were
/
who
receyued
hym
with
great
ioye
/
for
they
thought
the
better
to
spede
of
his
lande
in
Normandy
:
&
specially
of
the
castell
of
Chierbour●
/
wherof
th
englysshmen
desyred
greatly
to
be
lordes
.
The
kyng
of
Nauer
shewed
sagelye
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
the
cause
of
his
commynge
/
and
he
was
well
herde
and
so
well
conforted
/
that
he
was
content
.
I
shall
shewe
you
howe
this
treatie
went
bytwene
these
two
kynges
.
One
thyng
there
was
:
the
kynge
of
Nauer
shulde
fro
thens
for
the
alwayes
be
true
englysshe
/
and
shulde
neuer
make
peace
with
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
nor
with
the
kynge
of
Castell
/
without
the
knowledge
and
consent
of
the
kyng
of
Englande
.
And
if
the
kyng
of
Englande
or
any
of
his
men
by
their
puyssance
/
coude
gette
any
townes
or
castelles
that
the
kynge
of
Nauer
ought
to
haue
in
Normandy
agaynst
the
frenchmen
/
that
the
same
townes
or
castels
shulde
abyde
for
euer
to
be
englysshe
/
the
souerayntie
euer
reserued
to
the
kynge
of
Nauerr
.
The
whiche
thynge
the
englysshmen
praysed
moche
/
bycause
they
thought
by
that
meanes
they
shulde
haue
asayre
entre
into
Fraunce
thorough
Normandy
.
And
the
kyng
of
England
shulde
sende
the
same
tyme
a
thousand
speares
and
two
thousande
archers
by
the
ryuer
of
Gyronde
to
Burdeur
/
or
to
Bayone
:
and
the
men
of
armes
to
entre
in
to
Nauerr
/
and
to
make
warre
agaynst
the
kyng
of
Castell
.
And
nat
to
departe
fro
the
kyng
of
Nauer
or
out
of
his
realme
/
tyll
he
hadde
made
an
ende
of
his
warre
with
the
spanyerdes
.
And
the
men
of
warre
so
ones
entred
in
to
Nauer
:
the
kynge
of
Nauer
than
to
pay
them
their
wages
/
and
to
stuffe
them
sufficiently
/
acordyng
:
after
the
same
rate
that
the
kynge
of
Englande
was
wonte
to
paye
his
men
of
warre
.
Dyuers
treaties
and
alya●nces
were
there
made
and
ordayned
:
and
also
written
/
sealed
/
and
sworne
to
be
kept
/
on
bothe
partes
.
And
there
were
named
suche
as
shulde
go
in
to
Normandy
/
and
suche
as
shulde
go
in
to
Nauer
.
And
bycause
that
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
erle
of
Cambridge
were
nat
at
this
treatie
/
it
was
ordayned
that
this
treatie
shulde
be
sent
to
them
sealed
/
to
then
tent
that
they
shulde
make
hast
to
entre
into
Normandy
.
The
duke
of
Bretayne
was
present
at
this
treatie
.
RIng
Charles
of
France
/
who
was
right
sage
and
subtell
:
and
soo
he
well
shewed
hymselfe
as
longe
as
he
lyued
.
He
was
well
enfourmed
of
the
armye
of
Englande
/
yet
he
knewe
no
certentie
but
by
suspecte
/
whyder
they
wolde
drawe
in
to
Normandy
or
els
into
Bretayne
.
And
for
dout
therof
/
he
helde
many
men
of
armes
in
Bretayne
/
wherof
the
lorde
Clysson
/
the
lorde

/
the

were
capitayns
.
And
had
besieged
Breest
by
bastydes
/
and
none
otherwyse
:
wherefore
they
might
vitayle
Brest
whan

lyst
.
And
in
the
rowne
was
capitayne
/
a
valyant
squye●
of
Englande
/
called
James
Clerke
.
And
bycause
the
frenche
kyng
knewe
well
that
the
kynge
of
Nauerr
was
alyed
with
Englande
/
and
thought
surely
that
or
his
returne
/
he
wolde
entre
in
to
some
treatie
with
his
aduersary
the
kyn
of
Englande

And
douted
of
this
armye

lest
they
shuld
take
lande
in
Normandy
/
and
entre
into
the
castelles
parteyninge
to
the
kyng
of

.
Therfore
he
sent
hastely
to
the
lorde
Coucy
and
to
the
lorde
de

Ryuerr
/
that
they
shulde
as
shortely

get
by
fayrnesse
or
by

as
were
belongynge
to
the
kynge
of

Ne

THe
〈◊〉
and
the
lorde
de
la
●yuer
besieged
Carentyne
with
great
puyssaunce
/
and
they
of
Ca●●tyne
hadde
as
than
no
capitayne
of
name
/
nor
had
nat
sithe
the
deth
of
sir
Eustace
Dambreticourt
/
who
dyed
ther.
He
had
been
capitayne
ther
foure
yere
.
So
they
hadde
no
conforte
nor
counsayle
but
of
them selfe
/
&
they
sawe
well
agaynst
them
a
great
nombre
/
and
also
the
admyrall
of
Fraunce
sir
Johan
of
Uyen
and
the
admyrall
of
Spaygne
/
and
with
them
a
great
nombre
of
menne
of
warre
before
Chy●rbourge
.
They
knewe
nothynge
of
the
treatie
of
the
kyng
of
Nauerr
/
nor
howe
he
hadde
spedde
in
Englande
.
And
they
were
dayly
assayled
two
wayes
:
the
one
by
armyes
/
and
the
other
way
by
wordes
:
for
the
lorde
Coucy
and
the
lorde
de
la
Ryuer
/
wolde
gladly
haue
had
the
towne
of
Carentyne
.
And
at
last
they
dyde
so
moche
that
they
had
it
by
treatie
/
&
so
it
was
gyuen
vp
to
the
obeysance
of
the
frenche
kyng
/
the
right
reserued
of
the
true
enhery
toure
/
who
was
the
kyng
of
Nauers
sonne
.
In
all
treaties
the
lordes
of
Fraunce
acorded
to
reserue
the
chyldes
right
/
for
they
cared
nat
/
so
they
might
haue
the
townes
and
castels
in
their
possessyon
.
Thus
they
had
Carentyne
/
&
put
therin
newe
men
of
warre
:
and
than
departed
and
went
to
the
castell
of
Molmeur
and
within
thre
dayes
they
had
it
by
treatie
.
And
than
they
wente
to
Couches
and
lay
by
the
fayre
ryuer
of
Dorne
/
whiche
rynneth
to
Cane
:
and
ther
they
taryed
tyll
they
knewe
the
myndes
of
them
of
Couches
/
and
so
they
yelded
vp
by
treatie
.
The
lorde
of
Coucy
/
and
the
lorde
de
la
ryuer
/
had
alwayes
with
them
the
chylde
of
Nauer
/
whiche
helped
moch
their
mater
.
euer
whan
any
yelded
vp
to
the
french
kyng
or
to
his
commyssioners
/
it
was
euer
in
the
treatie
by
condycion
/
that
they
might
depart
whan
they
lyst
/
and
whyder
they
wolde
Suche
as
departed
went
no
farther
but
to
Eureur
/
wherof
Done
Ferant
naueroyse
was
capitayne
.
¶
After
the
conquest
of
Couches
/
they
departed
and
went
to
Past
/
and
ther
made
assaut
/
and
dyuers
hurt
on
bothe
parties
:
but
the
same
day
it
was
yelded
vp
/
and
so
the
castell
became
frenche
.
And
finally
all
that
euer
the
kynge
of
Nauer
had
in
Normandy
/
excepte
Eureux
and
Chyerbourge
/
was
yelded
vp
and
become
french
.
And
whan
they
had
wonne
all
castels
and
small
holdes
/
and
that
all
the
countre
was
vnder
their
obeysaunce
.
Than
they
went
and
layed
siege
to
Eureux
:
and
ther
be
&
were
wente
to
be
of
olde
vsage
/
the
moost
strongest
naueroyse
in
all
Normany
:
and
they
of
Deureur
neuer
loued
perfitely
none
other
lorde
but
the
kyng
of
Nauer
.
So
Eureux
was
besieged
right
puissantly
and
endured
a
long
season
for
within
was
Feraudo
capitayne
/
who
dyde
many
a
feate
of
armes
with
his
owne
handes
.
THe
same
season
the
kynge
of
Nauerre
was
retourned
in
to
his
owne
countre
/
and
trusted
some
what
to
haue
been
ayded
by
the
englysshmen
/
howe
be
it
they
dyde
hym
no
profyte
as
apered
.
For
the
duke
of
Lancastre
and
the
erle
of
Cambridge
hadde
the
wynde
agaynst
them
to
come
in
to
Normandy
.
And
alsoo
the
armye
that
was
made
in
Englande
/
of
the
foure
thousande
men
of
armes
/
and
eyght
thousande
archers
.
Assoone
as
they
were
come
to
Hampton
they
entred
in

Chierbourc
was
nat
likely

¶
Nowe
let
vs
speke
of
the
siege
of
saynt
Malo
.
wHan
the
englysshmen
entred
fyrst
into
the
Isle
of
saynt
Malo
/
they
found
there
many
vesselles
of
Rochell
/
charged
with
good
wyne
/
the
merchauntes
had
anone
solde
the
wyne
&
the
shyppes
burnt
.
Than
they
layde
siege
to
saynt
Malo
/
for
they
were
men
ynowe
so
to
do
/
and
the
englisshmen
spred
abrode
in
the
countrey
/
and
dyde
moche
hurt
/
a●●
they
the
moost
comonly
kept
the
feldes
was
sir
Robert
of
Courbes
/
and
sir
Hughe
Brone
his
nephe
we
/
who
knewe
right
well
the
countre
and
the
chanon
Robersarte
with
them
/
dayly
they
rode
forthe
somtyme
they
wanne
/
and
somtyme
they
lost
.
So
they
wasted
&
brent
all
the
countrey
about
saynt
Malo
.
And
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
&
the
erle
of
Cambridge
his
brother
/
and
their
army
hadde
vitayle
plenty
/
for
there
came
to
them
ynoughe
out
of
Englande
.
So
before
saynt
Malo
/
there
were
dyuers
assautes
/
&
marueylously
well
defended
/
for
ther
were
ryght
good
men
of
warre
within
/
wherfore
they
were
nat
easy
to
be
conquered
.
They
of
the
hoost
caused
to
be
made
dyuers
mantels
of
assaute
/
and
they
had
a
foure
hundred
gonnes
layed
rounde
about
the
towne
/
the
whiche
greatly
constrayned
them
within
.
Among
dyuers
assautes
/
ther
was
one
marueylous
ferse
the
whiche
endured
a
hole
day
/
therat
were
dyuers
englysshmen
slayne
and
sore
hurt
for
they
with
in
defended
them selfe
so
valiantly
▪
that
they
lost
nat
a
man
.
There
was
slayne
a
knyght
of
Englande
called
sir
Peter
Lescume
/
for
whose
dethe
the
duke
and
his
brother
/
were
right
sore
o●spleased
.
ANd
as
ye
haue
herde
here
before
:
yuan
of
Wales
/
lay
at
siege
before
Mortayne
in
Poitou
/
in
four
bastydes
:
of
the
which
towne
the
lorde
of
Lestrade
was
capitayne
.
The
fyrst
bastyde
where
as
parte
of
the
siege
lay
/
as
at
the
syde
of
a
rock
/
before
the
castell
of
Geron
one

▪
the
whiche
basty
de
yuan
hym selfe
kept
.
The
seconde
was
bytwene
the
water
and
the
castell
lowe
before
a
posterne
/
so
that
none
coude
entre
nor
issue
therat
.
The
third
bastyde
was
on
the
other
syde
of
the
castell
.
The
fourth
was
in
the
church
of
saynt
Legar
/
halfe
a
leage
●●o
the
castell
.
By
these
foure
bastydes
they
with
in
Mortayne
were
sore
constrayned
/
bycause
of
the
lenght
of
the
siege
/
for
it
endured
a
yere
and
a
halfe
.
So
that
they
within
had
nothyng
to
lyue
by
norshowe
on
their
fete
/
nor
confort
nor
soc
oure
apered
none
to
them
fro
any
parte
▪
wherfore
they
were
sore
abasshed
.
This
siege
thus
enduryng
before
Mortayne
/
there
issued
out
of
the
realme
of
Englande
/
and
out
of
the
marches
of
Wales
a
squier
a
walshman
/
called
James
Laube
/
he
was
but
a
small
gentylman
&
that
well
shewed
a●t

for
a

wyll
neuer

/
be
was
charged
and
enfourmed
/
by
some
knyghtes
of
Englande
/
to
do
the
treason
that
he
dyde
.
For
this
ynan
of
Wales
was
gretly
behated
in
Englande
and
in
Gascon
/
bycause
of
the
captall
of
Beufz
▪
whome
he
toke
and
helped
therto
before
Soubyse
in
Poictou
.
For
after
he
was
taken
/
the
frenchmen
wolde
nat
delyuer
hym
agayne
by
no
meanes
/
nother
for
raunsome
nor
for
exchaunge
/
yet
the
erle
of
saynt
Poule
was
offered
for
him
/
and
golde
and
syluer
/
but
it
wolde
nat
be
taken
.
And
whan
he
sawe
that
/
for
pure
melancoly
he
dyed
in
the
temple
at
Parys
/
wherof
all
his
frendes
had
great
displeasure
.
This
walsshe
squier
James
Laube
/
the
same
season
arryued
in
Bretayne
and
dyd
somoche
/
that
he
came
in
to
Poictou
/
and
euer
as
he
went
he
named
hym selfe
to
beseruaunt
to
yuan
of
Wales
for
he
spake
good
frenche
/
sayeng
howe
he
was
come
out
of
Wales
to
speke
with
yuan
/
and
so
he
was
anone
beleued
/
&
was
conueyd
by
them
of
the
countre
to
Mortaygne
/
where
the
siege
was
.
Than
he
wente
wisely
to
yuan
/
and
shewed
hym
in
his
owne
langage
how
he
was
come
out
of
his
countre
to
se
hym
/
and
to
do
hym
seruyce
.
yuan
who
thought
none
yll
▪
lightly
beleued
him
/
and
gaue
hym
moche
thankes
for
his
comynge
/
and
sayd
:
howe
he
wolde
right
gladlye
haue
his
seruyce
.
And
than
he
demaunded
of
him
tidynges
of
the
countrey
of
Wales
/
and
he
shewed
him
trewe
tidynges
/
and
vntre
we
for
he
made
him
beleue
howe
all
the
countre
of
Wales
wolde
gladlye
haue
hym
to
be
their
lorde
.
These
wordes
brought
this
James
greatly
in
loue
with
yuan
/
for
euery
man
naturally
desyreth
to
go
in
to
their
owne
countres
/
and
to
here
therof
/
so
the
yuan
made
him
his
chamberlayne
.
And
this
James
euery
day
more
and
more
/
aquaynted
him
so
with
this
yuan
of
Wales
/
that
he
had
nat
so
moche
trust
in
no
man
/
as
he
had
in
him
.
Somoch
this
yuan
loued
this
James
Laube
that
it
was
his
distructyon
/
&
the
more
pytie
/
for
he
was
a
good
and
a
valyant
man
of
armes
.
And
was
somtyme
sonne
to
a
prince
of
Wales
/
who
kyng
Edwarde
of
England
caused
to
lese
his
heed
/
the
cause
why
I
can
nat
tell
.
and
so
kyng
Edwarde
ceased
in
to
his
handes
/
all
the
prouynce
of
Wales
.
And
this
yuan
in
his
youthe
came
in
to
Fraunce
/
and
shewed
all
his
trouble
to
kyng
Philyppe
/
than
beyng
frenche
kyng
/
who
kept
him
styll
about
him
as
long
as
he
lyued

and
was
as
one
of
the
chyldren
of
his
chambre
with
his
neuewes
of
Alenson
and
other
.
And
in
lykewise
so
dyde
kyng
Johan
/
&
than
he
bare
first
armes
/
and
was
at
the
batell
of
Poicters
/
how
be
it
he
was
nat
there
taken
:
it
had
been
better
for
hym
/
that
he
had
ben
ther
slayne
.
and
whan
the
peace
was
made
bitwene
the
kynge
of
Englande
and
the
frenche
kynge
/
than
this
yuan
wente
in
to
Lombardy

&
there
contynued
in
warre
.
And
whan
the
warre
began
agayne
bytwene
Englande

On

and
whan

he
left

the

and
so
went
his
way

&
drewe
vnder

of
the
castell

and
soo
came
to
the
barryers
and
was
let
in

made

so
he
was

Sir

I

thus
〈◊〉
James

&
so
shewed
him
all

as
ye

And
whan

Sauyng
but
that
this
dede
is
for

it
shulde
cost
the
thyne
heed
/
but
sithe
it
is
done
it
can
nat
be
vndone
agayne
.
Howe beit
/
it
is
a
great
domage
of
that
gentylman
to
be
so
slayne
/
we
shall
haue
rather
blame
therby
than
prayse
.
THis
was
the
ende
of
yuan
or
Owen
of
Wales
wheder
ye
wyll
all
is
one
/
slayne
by
great
vnhap
and
treason
/
wherwith
they
of
the
hoost
whan
they
knewe
it
/
were
ryght
sorie

displeased

and
so
was
euery
man
that
herde
therof

and
specially
kyng
Charles

who
greatly
complayned
his
dethe

Howe beit
he
coulde
nat
amende
it

And
so
this

was
buryed
in
the
church
of

Leger
/
where
as
he
hadde
made
a
bastyde

halfe
a

fro
the
castell
of
Mortayne
.
And
all
the
gentylmen
of
the
hoost
were
at
his
buryeng
/
the
whiche
was
done
ryght
honourably
.
Howe
be
it
for
all
that
the
siege
helde
styll
before
Mortayne
/
for
there
were
good
knyghtes
&
squiers

bretons
poicteuyns

and
frenchmen

who
had
geatter
desyre
to
conquere

and
thought
neuer

tyll
they
had
wonne
it

or
elles
reysed
by

/
they
wolde
so
fayne
haue
ben
reuenged
of
the
dethe
of
yuan
of
Wales
/
and
so
they
lay
styll
without
any
sawte
geuynge
/
for
they
knewe
well
they
lacked
vitayle
within
the
castell

none
coulde
come

fro
the
french
kyng
for
he
lay
at
Rohan
/
as

to
his

as

myght
/
for
he
thought
to
haue
Eureux
shortly
out
of
hande
/
outher
byforce
or
by
composicion
/
for
he
perceyued
well
how
the
englisshmen
began
to

in

wherfore
he
wolde
haue
all
his

to

/
to
reyse
the
siege
before

Malos
/
&
to

These
two
lordes
before
Eureux
/
aquyted
them selfe
ryght
valyantly
:
for
euery
daye
they
made
assaute
/
and
also
sente
many
treaties
to
the
burgesses
of
the

/
shewynge
them
howe
they
suffred
them selfe
to
be
greued
without

/
and
mynysshe
their
goodesse
/
and
suffre
their
houses
in
the
countrey
/
to
be
beaten
downe
and
brent
.
For
their
naturall
lorde
was
there
with
out
with
them
(
Charles
of
Nauer
)
to
whom
the
herytage
of
the
countye
of
Eureux
was
fallen
/
by
reason
of
the
dethe
of
the
countesse
his

.
And
counsayled
them
nat
to
holde
the

and
opynyon
of

folysshe
naueroyse
/
and
suche
other
as
Ferando

:
who
careth
nat

.
for
besyde
their
ryghtfull
quarell
/
they
sayd
they
wolde
neuer

/
tyll
they
had
the
castell
at
their

:
and
if
they
had
it
by
force
/
they
shulde
haue
no
mercy
/
and
the
towne
newe
peopled
with
strangers
.
Such
offers
/
wordes
/
and
manasshes
were
shewed
to
them
of
Eureux
/
and
euery
day
they
were
assayled
.
Than
they
within
began
to
doute
/
for
there
apered
to
them
no
maner
of
comfort
/
than
they
sayde
one
to
another
/
we
se
well
that
the
frenche
kynge
desyreth
nat
the
countre
&
castell
of
Eureux
/
for
hym selfe
:
but
for
his
nephewe
Charles
of
Nauerre
.
Than
they
fell
in
treatye
with
the
lorde
Coucy
.
Whan
Ferando
knewe
that
the
burgesses
of
the
towne
fell
in
treatye
/
he
kept
hym selfe
within
the
castell
/
and
wolde
nat
come
out
/
nor
be
at
none
of
their
treatyes
:
finally
they
of
the
towne
and
countre
yelded
vp
/
their
lyues
and
goodesse
saued
/
and
receyued
Charles
of
Nauerre
for
their
lorde
.
And
than
they
besieged
Ferando
within
the
castell
/
than
he
began
to
entreate
/
so
that
if
they
wolde
suffre
him
and
his
to
depart
without
daunger
/
he
wolde
yelde
vp
the
castell
.
The
lordes
were
content
.
Than
they
departed
out
of
the
castell
and
so
were
brought
to
Chyerbourc
.
After
the
conquest
of
Eureux
/
all

he
knewe
that
th
englysshmen
laye

The
kyng
receyued
them
ioyfully

and
specyally
the
lorde
Coucy
and
the

de

Ryuer
bycause
they
had

These

abode
styll

were
styll
retayned

THe
french

for
if

he
thought

therfore
to
resyst

the

had
made
a
great

for

And

Also

The

Also

bytwene

and
the

there
was
a

an

And
often
tymes
whan

/
some
knyghtes
and
squiers
wolde
go

do
dyuers
feates

in

There
was
neuer
suche

for
if
the

in

and
eche

they

and
penons
waueryng
with

it
was
great

The
frenchemen
wolde
come

and
make

and
wolde

THis
fasynge
and
mustryng
was
dayly
bytwene
them
.
So
on
a
day
the
erle
of
Cambridge
/
sware
and
sayd
:
that

suche

that

that

what

Than
on
a

the

with
the
constable
of
Fraunce
/
who
sawe
well
howe
the
englysshmen
were

ordayned
on

all

on

as
they

The
erle
of
Cambridge
whan
he
sawe
their

sayd
/
they
that
loue
me
folowe
me
/
for
I
wyll
go

fyght
with

/
and
so
dasshed
in
to
the
water
/
the
whyche
as
than
was
lowe
/
but
the
fludde
was
comynge
/
and
so
came
iust
to
the
ryuersyde
with
his
baner
.
than
the
englisshmen
began
to
shote
agaynst
the
frenchmen
/
and
the
constable
of
Fraunce
drewe
abacke
and
all
his
people
/
and
went
back
in
to
the
felde
who
thought
veryly
that
the
englisshmen
wolde
a
come
ouer
the
water
/
they
wolde
gladly
haue
caused
them
to
haue
done
so
.
The
duke
of
Lancastre
with
a
great
batayle
/
was
redy
to
haue
folowed
his
brother
if
he
had
sene
there
hadde
bene
nede
/
&
sayd
to
Gerarde
of

a

who
was
by

Gerarde
:
beholde

howe

it
semeth
howe

sheweth
ensample

/
howe
he
wolde
fayne
fyght
with
them
/
but
it
semeth
they
haue
but
small
wyll
therto
.
Thus
they
contynued
and
no
deades
of
armes
done
on
nother
party
/
the
fludde
began
to
ryse
.
Than
the
englisshmen
drewe
a
backe
out
of
the
ryuer
/
and
went
to
their
lodgynges
/
and
the
frenchmen
in
lyke
wyse
to
theirs
.
IN
suche
musters
and
assembles
/
the
siege
durynge
:
there
was
done
dyuers
feates
of
armes
.
The
frenchmen
kept
well
their
fronter
/
so
that
the
englisshmen
durst
nat
passe
the
ryuer
.
And
soo
it
was
/
that
dyuers
tymes
more
hygher
in
the
countre
/
certayne
knyghtes
and
squiers
bretons
/
suche
as
knewe
well
the
countrey
/
rode
a
brode
in
certayne
companyes
/
and
passed
the
ryuer
by
gydes
/
and
often
tymes
encountred
with
the
englisshe
foragers
/
and
sometyme
they
fought
/
and
some
ouer
throwen
:
sometyme
they
wan
/
and
sometyme
lost
/
as
aduentures
of
warre
often
tymes
falleth
.
The
siege
thus
endurynge
the
lordes
of
Englande
more
dilygently
to
attayne
to
their
purpose
/
they
concluded
to
make
a
myne
/
and
so
therby
to
entre
in
to
saynt
Malos
/
for
otherwyse
they
thought
they
coulde
nat
get
the
towne
/
it
was
so
full
of
good
men
of
warre
/
&
so
well
furnysshed
with
all
ordynance
and
artyllery
:
the
whiche
helped
them
merueylusly
well
.
Also
th
englisshmen
nigh
euery
day
/
were
fayne
to
be
armed
and
to
assemble
to
gyder
to
abyde
batayle
/
if
the
frenchmen
wolde
haue
come
forwarde
/
wherfore
they
had
no
leyser
to
make
any
assawtes
to
the
towne
/
but
with
their
gonnes
/
wherof
they
had
great
plenty
:
which
troubled
them
sore
within
the
towne
.
So
they
aduysed
the
place
to
make
their
myne
and
set
mynours
a
warke
.

And
so

then
dis●ogyng
without

sayd
:
howe
they
were
able
to
abyde
all
the
world
and
to
kepe
the
fortresse
of
saynt
Leger
/
and
so
they
entred
into

&
drue
in
all
their

THe
knightes
of
Englande

Gascon
/
who

they
rested
at

And
as
they
landed
/
they
put
themselve
in
order
redy
to
assayle
the
fortresse
of
saynt
Leger
/
wherin
the
bretons
were
.
And
so
at
the
first
comyng
ther
was
a
sore
assaut
/
and
whyle
they
were
at
the
assaut
/
the
lorde
Neuyll
sent
a
haraude
to
Mortayn

The

that

wan
nothing

And
it
was

they

Cap.
CCC

ANd
in
the
next
mornyng
the
lorde
Neuyll
&
the
knightes
of
England
ordayned
to
gyue
assaut
to
saynt
Leger
/
and
so
sowned
their
trumpettꝭ
to
the
assaute
and
aproched
to
the
fortresse
and
ther
began
a
sore
assaut
The
fortresse
stode
so
on
a
rocke
that
none
coude
easely
aproche
therto
/
and
on
the
wekest
syde
ther
were
dyuers
great
dykes
/
so
that
none
coude
easely
aproche
.
The
assaylers
traueyled
sore
and
wanne
but
lytell
/
but
dyuers
of
their
men
were
sore
hurt
/
&
some
slayne
.
Than
th
assaut
ceased
/
and
it
was
thought
best
to
fyll
the
dykes
/
to
haue
the
more
aduantage
togyue
assaut
:
so
with
great
payne
the
dykes
were
fylled
.
Than
the
bretons
that
were
within
seyng
that
douted
more
than
/
than
they
dyde
before
:
and
good
reason
why
/
&
so
fell
to
entreat
.
The
englysshmen
who
had
great
mynde
of
the
kyng
of
Nauers
busynesse
:
and
also
▪
thought
to
delyuer
certayne
fortresses
in
Burdelois
/
holden
by
the
frenche
bretons
/
agreed
to
their
treatie
/
and
so
the
holde
of
saynt
Leger
was
gyuen
vp
so
that
they
within
departed
whyder
they
lyst
/
their
lyues
and
goodes
saued
.
Thus
saynt
Legers
was
englysshe
/
and
than
the
lordes
wente
to
the
castell
of
Mortayne
and
founde
the
Soudic
of
Lestrade
in
the
same
case
/
as
the
haraud
had
reported
to
them
before
.
So
than
they
were
refresshed
of
euery
thyng
that
they
neded
/
and
the
castell
newe
furnysshed
with
men
.
And
than
they
retourned
agayne
to
Burdeaux
the
same
way
they
came
by
water
/
by
the
ryuer
of
Garon
.
wHan
they
were
come
agayne
to
Burdeaux
and
refresshed
/
in
the
meane
season
they
had
knowledge
/
that
a
sire
leagis
thens
/
ther
was
a
barone
that
helde
a
fortresse
called
saynt
Mauberen
/
in
a
countre
called
Medoc
/
who
dyde
moche
hurt
in
the
countre
.
Thāthenglysshe
lordes
charged
all
their
prouisyon
on
the
ryuer
of
Garone
and
all
their
artyllary
/
and
than
toke
their
horses
aboute
a
thre
hundred
speares
/
and
so
came
by
lande
to
saynt
Mauberen
.
And
ther
were
of
gascoyns
with
the
lorde
Neuyll
/
sir
Axchambalt
of
Grayle
/
the
lorde
of
Rousy
/
the
lorde
of
Duras
/
and
the
lorde
of
Ternon
.
And
whan
the
barones
and
their
companyes
were
come
before
saynt
Mauberen
they
toke
their
lodgynge
/
and
incontynent
gaue
assaut
the
whiche
was
feirse
and
terryble
/
for
the
bretons
within
were
good
men
of
warre
/
and
their
capitayne
was
one
called
Huguelyn
/
by
whom
they
were
ruled
.
This
first
assaut
dyde
the
bretons
but
lytell
hurt
/
than
th
englysshmen
drewe
to
their
lodgynge
.
The
next
mornynge
they
reysed
vp
their
engyns
to
cast
stones
/
and
to
breke
downe
the
toppes
of
the
byldinges
in
the
towre
.
The
.iii.
day
they
ordayned
to
gyue
asore
assaut
/
sayeng
how
those
rybaudꝭ
shulde
nat
longe
endure
agaynst
them
.
There
was
a
sore
and
a
feirse
assaut
/
and
many
a
man
slayne
and
hurt
:
ther
were
neuer
men
that
better
defended
them selfe
than
the
bretons
dyde
.
Howe
be
it
finally
/
seyng
no
confort
comyng
fro
no
parte
to
them
warde
they
fell
in
treatie
/
for
they
sawe
well
their

wolde
nat
departe
thens
/
tyll
they
hadde
them
at
their
pleasure
/
thoughe
they
shulde
lye
longe
there
therfore
.
So
the
treatie
toke
suche
effect
that
they
gaue
vp
saynt
Mauberen
/
and
departed
with
their
goodes
without
domage
/
and
so
they
went
in
to
Poictou
or
whyder
they
lyst
.
And
whan
the
lorde
Neuyll
was
lorde
therof
/
he
newly
repayred
the
forteresse
and
furnysshed
it
with
newe
men
and
artillary
/
and
sette
therin
gascoyns
to
kepe
it
.
A
squyer
of
Gascoyne
/
called
Peter
of
Brasyas
was
capitayne
there
/
and
than
the
lorde
Neuyll
returned
to
Burdeux
.
And
dayly
he
herde
how
the
siege
endured
before
Panpilone
in
Nauer
the
whiche
was
besieged
by

herde
no

whiche
greatly
displeased

¶
Nowe

Cap.

BEfore
the
towne
of

Malo
ther
was
a
sore
siege
and
many
a
soore
saute
gyuen
/
for
th
englysshmen
had
well
a
four
hundred
gonnes
/
who
shot
night
and
daye
into
the
fortresse
/
and
agaynst
it
.
And
the
capitayne
within
called
Morfonas
a
valyant
man
of
armes
/
set
all
his
mynde
to
the
defence
of
the
forteresse
/
and
by
the
good
counsayle
of
sir
Henry
of
Maletrait
/
of
the
lorde
Cōbore
/
and
of
the
vycont
of
Bellere
/
dyd
so
valyantly
that
they
toke
all
the
tyme
but
lytell
hurte
.
In
the
countre
as
ye
haue
herde
before
:
was
all
about
the
floure
of
Fraunce
/
aswell
of
great
lordes
as
other
/
they
were
to
the
nombre
of
.xvi.
thousande
men
of
armes
/
knyghtes
and
squyers
/
and
well
a
hundred
thousande
horses
/
and
gladly
they
wolde
haue
fought
with
th englisshmen
.
And
in
lykewise
the
englysshmen
wolde
gladly
haue
done
the
same
/
if
any
parte
coulde
haue
founde
any
aduauntage
/
but
that
thynge
whiche
brake
their
purpose
oftentymes
/
was
a
ryuer
that
was
bytwene
them
/
so
that
whan
the
studde
came
ther
coude
none
passe
ouer
so
that
none
of
them
might
come
at
other
.
And
alwayes
the
myne
went
forward
/
and
they
within
were
in
great
dout
.
ye
may
well
knowe
that
in
suche
assembles
it
coude
be
non
otherwyse
/
but
that
the
foragers
of
eyther
ꝑtie
somtymes
met
in
the
felde
/
for
ther
were
expert
knyghtes
and
squyers
of
bothe
parties
:
and
many
a
feat
of
armes
done
/
and
some
ouerthrowen
.
These
myners
wrought
sore
day
and
night
vnder
the
erth
to
th
entent
to
come
in
to
the
towne
that
way
/
&
to
make
a
pane
of
the
wall
to
fall
/
so
that
their
men
might
entre
.
Of
this
myne
Morfonace
&
they
within
douted
gretly
/
for
they
knewe
well
by
that
they
myght
be
lost
/
they
cared
for
none
other
assaut
but
for
that
.
For
their
towne
was
well
furnysshed
with
vitayls
and
artyllary
/
to
kepe
it
for
two
yere
yf
nede
were
/
but
they
had
great
thought
how
to
breke
this
myne
.
so
long
they
thought
theron
and
traueyled
ther
about
that
at
last
they
came
to
their
ententes
/
and
by
great
aduenture
/
as
many
thynges
falleth
in
warre
.
The
erle
Richarde
of
Arundell
shulde
haue
kept
the
watche
one
night
/
with
a
certayn
with
him
of
his
owne
men
.
And
th
erle
toke
no
great
hede
of
that
was
his
charge
/
so
that
they
●in
saynt
Malos
knewe
therof
by
their
spyes
or
other
wyse
.
And
so
wha●ie
they
sawe
it
was
tyme
/
on
trust
of
the
watche
they
departed
secretly
out
of
the
towne
/
the
hoost
beyng
a
slepe
.
And
so
they
came
without
noyse
makynge
to
the
place
wher
as
the
myne
was
a
makynge
:
&
the
myners
had
nigh
made
an
ende
of
their
warke
Than
Morfonace
and
his
company
beyng
redy
to
do
that
he
was
come
for
at
their
ease
&
without
defence
brake
the
myne
/
so
that
some
of
the
myners
came
neuer
out
:
for
the
myne
fell
downe
on
them
.
And
whan
they
had
done
/
they
sayde
they
wolde
awake
the
watch
that
was
next
the
towne
/
to
th
entent
that
the
hoost
shulde
knowe
howe
valiantly
they
had
done
.
And
so
they
entred
in
to
the
one
syde
of
the
felde
cryeng

wente
to
Ualonges
a
thre
leages

there
made

And
they
knewe
well
that

had
newly
refresshed

they
supposed

On
that
syde
ther
were
highe
wodes

Than

Howe
be

he
thought
at

the
whiche
stode
higher

he

And

THe

in
his
mynde
that
th englisshmen
taryed
so
longe
/
for
his
countrey
was
in
great
ꝑell
.
Surely
the
cyte
of
Panpylone
had
ben
won
by
the
spanyerdes
if
the
wysdome
&
good
kepyng
of
the
vycont
of
Chastellon
had
nat
ben
/
who
was
capyten
ther
with
two
.
C.
speares

/
but
his

In

/
called

.
In

of
these
capitayns
the
kyng
of
Nauer
held
him
at
saynt
Iohnns
towne
/
but
all
the
countre
was
wasted
and
ouerrynne
with
enemyes
for
none
kepte
the
feldes
/
but
the
spanyerdes
:
and
they
knewe
well
that
at
length
by
long
siege
the
cyte
of
Panpylone
shulde
be
wonne
or
yelded
vp
but
they
had

for
the

/
the
lorde
Lescute
/
wyllm̄
of
Paur
toke
so
good
hede

that
they
feared

So

/
for
wynter
drewe
on
about
saynt
Andrewes
tyde
and
their

ware
scante
.
It
had
fayled
sorer

and
the
vycount
of
Roquebertyn
had

for
he
refresshed
them
with
threscore
somers
laden
with
vitayls
/
elles
their

had
fayled
them
by
Alhalowtyde
Than
the
kyng
of

sent

knyght
of
his
called
sir
Peter
of

to
the
englysshmen
/
prayeng

to
make

for
he
thought
they
taryed
ouer
long
/
seyng
their
promyse
and
his
nede
togyder
.
The
knight
dyde
so
moche
that
he
came
in
to
the
marche
of
Bayone
/
and
founde
the
englisshmen
before
a
castell
called
Poulāt
/
there
he
dyde

.
Than
sir
Thomas
Tryuet
sayd
:
the

nothyng
tyll
he

Nauer
and
so
badde
the
knyght

that
promyse
to

.
And
than
he
departed
/
and
the
castell
within
two
dayes
after
was
gyuen
vp
by
treatie
and
they
that
were
within
departed
/
and
the
castell
newe
refresshed
with
newe

.
Than
the
countre
was
well

/
howe
be
it
there
were
styll
lytell
fortresses
kept

churches
and
mynsters
/
the
whiche
dyde

in
the
countre
:
but
they
had
no
great
puyssaunce
.
So
the
englysshmen
wolde
tary
no

/
but
sayd
they
wolde
go
in
to
Nauer
and
reyse
the
sege
before

SIr

and
all

retourned

/
and
ther
taryed
four
dayes

.
But
sir
Mathewe

retourned
to

with
his
owne
men
to
kepe
the
countre
/
and
to
conquere
some
smale
forteresses
that
the
bretons
kept

so
long
sir
Thomas
Tryuet
iourneyd
/
that
he
came
to
saynt
Iohnns
du
Py
du
port
/
where
he
founde
the
kyng
of
Nauer
/
who
receyued
them
right
ioyously
.
The
knightes
lodged
in
the
towne
&
the
men
of
warre
about
in
the
countre
.
Before
that
tyme
the
kyng
of
Nauer
had
somoned
all
maner
of
men
to
assemble
at
the
cyte
of
Myranda
.
Ther
was
none
that
wolde
resyst
agaynst
the
kynges
commaundement
/
but
so
euery
man
prepared
him selfe
to
go
to
Panpylone
to
fight
with
the
spanyerdes
.
Tidynges
came
into
the
hoost
/
howe
that
th
englysshmen
with
great
puyssance
were
with
the
kyng
of
Nauer
at
saynt
Iohnns
towne
/
to
the
nombre
of
.xx.
thousande
men
of

.
Than
the
capitayns
drewe
togyder
to
counsaile
/
to
se
what
was
best
for
them
to
do
/
outher
to
abyde
the
kynge
of
Nauer
/
orels
to

backe
.
This
counsayle
was
long
for
some
of
the
capitayns
wolde
that
th englisshmen
shulde
be
byden
/
and
some
other
sayd
nay
/
bycause
they
were
nat
strong
ynough
to
abyde
them
that
were
fresshmen
/
for
theymselfe
were
sore
traueyled
by
reason
of
the
long
siege
.
And
so
finally
they
concluded
to
dyslodge
and
euery
man
to
drawe
to
his
owne
countre
/
and
the
moost
that
enclyned
them
to

Ther
were
some

in
his
owne
countre
had
sent
a
.xv.
dayes
past
/
for
his
sonne
to
breke
vp
the

.
So
thus
the
spanyerdes
dysloged
and
departed
/
and
set
fyre
in
their
lodgynges
:
and
so
drewe
towardes
Groyng
and
to
saynt
Domynikes
in
Castell
.
And
whan
they
within
Panpylone
sawe
them
deꝑt
they
were
right
ioyfull
/
for
they
had
nat
ben
at
all

¶
Tidynges
came

.
&
by
semyng
/
they
were
therwith
right
sore
displeased
/
for
gladly
they
wolo●
haue
fought
with
the
spaynyardes
/
&
so
they
dyslodged
and
went
towarde
Panpilon
/
and
ther
they
founde
the
vicount
of
Chastellon
/
the
lorde
Lescute

receyued

And
whan
they
had
refresshed
them
there
a
two
or
thre

/
than
they
determyned
to
●eparte
and
go

lye
in

to
be
at

large
/
for
the
mountayns
in

arre
ryght
colde
in

bycause

So
than
it

Thus

and
the
kynge

And

Than
it

This
counsayle
was
kept

euery
man
made
him
redy
to
the

entente
:
and
it
was
ordayned

for
feare
rather
than
for
any
other
thyng
.
And
so
thought
to
steale
fro
Parys
&
to
go
to
his
owne
countre
/
to
yelde
him selfe
agayne
englysshe
:
for
the
seruyce
of
the
kyng
of
Englande
pleased
him
moche
better
than
the
seruyce
of
the
frenche
kyng
.
And
as
he
hadde
aduysed
so
he
dyde
/
and
gaue
knowlege
to
all
them
that
he
knewe
/
except
his
owne
seruantes
howe
he
was
sicke
:
and
kepte
his
lodgynge
.
And
so
in
an
euenyng
he
lept
on
his
horse
vnknowen
/
and
toke
but
thre
persons
with
hym
/
and
so
departed
fro
Parys
/
and
rode
toward
his
owne
coutre
/
and
his
men
folowed
after
him
lytell
and
lytell
.
And
so
longe
he
rode
that
he
came
to
Burdeux
/
and
there
he
founde
sir
Johan
lorde
Neuyll
seneshall
of
Burdeux
/
to
whome
he
shewed
all
his
aduenture
/
and
so
became
agayne
englysshe
:
and
sayde
/
howe
he
hadde
rather
be
false
of
his
faythe
to
the
french
kyng
/
than
to
his
naturall
lorde
the
kyng
of
Englande
.
Thus
the
lorde
Mucydent
abode
englysshe
as
long
as
he
lyued
/
wherof
the
duke
of
Aniou
was
sore
displeased
/
and
said
and
sware
that
if
euer
he
coude
get
hym
/
he
shulde
lese
his
heed
.
Wherof
the
lorde
Mucydent
was
well
enfourmed
/
and
thought
to
kepe
hym selfe
ryght
well
out
of
danger
.
ALl
this
season
the
lorde
of
Langurante
was
styll
frenche
/
who
was
an
experte
knight
and
dyde
moche
hurt
and
trouble
/
to
suche
landes
as
parteyned
to
such
lordes
as
were
become
englysshe
.
As
the
lorde
of
Rosen
/
the
lord
of
Duras
/
and
the
lorde
of
Mucydent
/
wherwith
these
thre
lordes
weresore
displeased
&
so
set
all
their
myndes
howe
they
might
slee
him
/
for
he
was
vtterly
their
enemy
.
this
lorde
of
Langurant
rode
forthe
on
a
day
with
a
.xl.
speares
and
came
nere
to
an
englysshe
forteresse
/
called
Cadylhatte
:
of
the
herytage
of
the
Captall
of
Beufz
/
and
his
bretherne
gascoyns
.
And
so
the

Lagurant
made

abusshment
of

Sirs

alone
/
&

And
so
he
rode
forthe
and
came
to
the
barryers
of
the
castell
/
and
spake
to
the
kepars
/
and
demaunded

yf

For

and
ther
shewed
him
all
the
wordes
:
as

And
whan

and
sayd

and
opyned

And

And

And

And

caryed

aswell
as
they
might

/
but
the
next
day
after

Thus
it
befell
that
season
of
the
lorde
Langurant
.
THe
same
season
there
was
a
dede
of
armes
done

And

or

or

And
so
on
a
day
they

/
about

:
for

and

other

and

/
hauyng
gret
desyre

.
And
these
capitayns
knewe
by
their
spyes
/
that
Helyot
of
Playsac
was
abrode
/
&
was
comynge
to
apere
before
Rochell
/
to

some

Than
all
these
lordes
and
knyghtes
went
out
of
Rochell
in
the
euenyng
/
well
armed
and
on
horsebacke
:
and
so

.
And
at

/
they

/
they
shulde

out
in
to
the
feldes
all
their

:
and
it
was
done
as
they
deuysad
.
And
in
the
next
mornyng
Helyot
of
Playsac
and
his
company
came
before
Rochell
to
the
barryers
/
and
some

&
made
them

And
they
hadde
nat
driuen

space
of
a

but

.ii.
C.
speares
came
sodaynly
on

on

of

.
Ther
Helyot
and
his
company
a
lighted
a
fote
/
and
put
themself
in
good
order
.
In
likewise
so
dyd
the
frenchmen
for
they
feared
the
sleyng
of
their
horses
.
Ther

a
sore
batayle
and

for
they
fought
hand

.
ther

done
many
feates

Finally

/
whiche
was
anone
taken

Thus

wher
of

an

called

And
ther
he
herde
masse
and
dyned
/
and
after
dyner
ther
was
great
iustyng
and
the
vycont
of
Roq̄bertyn
of
Arragon
had
the
price
/
&
than
he
returned
agayne
to
Burgus
.
And
this
feest
endured
.xv.

.
Than
the
duke
of
Lancastre
enquered
if
the

of
Portingale
was
desyred
to

Sir

/
he

but
for

And

that

/
howe

By

/
he
was
rightwell
counsayled

to

wordes
I

I
trust

For
my

I

And
so
they
lefte

and
called

.
¶
Nowe
lette
vs
leaue
to
speke
of
this
mater
/
and
retourne
to
the
busynes
of
Fraunce
.
KIng
Charles
of
Fraunce
who
as
than
reygned
/
was
ryght
sage
and
subtell
/
&
that
was
well
shewed
as
longe
as
he
lyued
.
For
tho
that
he
kept
hym selfe
preuy
in
his
chambre
/
takyng
his
pleasure
and
sporte
.
yet
he
conquered
agayne
/
that
his
predecessours
had
lost
in
the
felde
/
armed
with
their
swerdes
in
their
handes
wherfore
he
was
greatly
to
be
commended
.
And
bicause
he
knewe
well
that
kyng
Robert
of
Scotlande
/
and
all
the
realme
ther
had
made
warr
/
and
had
mortall
hate
to
th
englysshmen
/
for

coude

.
Therfore
to
the
entent
to

and

.
The
frenche
kynge
thought
to
send
a
knight
and
a
secretary
of
his
counsayle
to
kynge
Robert
of
Scotlande
/
and
to
the
scottes
/
to
speke
with
them
/
and
to
aduyse
the
countrey
.
And
to
knowe
if
he
might
make
any
good
warre
to
Englande
by
Scotlande
.
For
yuan
of
Wales
in
his
lyfe
tyme
had
enfourmed
hym
/
that
Scotland
was
the
place
in
the
worlde
wherby
Englande
might
be
moost
anoyed
.
And
of
this
purpose
the
frenche
kyng
had
many
ymaginacio●s
.
so
that
at
last
he
ordayned
a
knight
a
sage
man
called
sir
Peter
lorde
of
Bournesell
/
and
said
to
him
.
Sir
/

/
and
recommende

.
And

are
redy
to
do

/
and
to

.
So
that
therby
in
the
season
to
come
/
we
may
sende
people
thyder
/
wherby
we
maye
haue
entre
in

that

/
in

and

sir

all

/
and
so
he
taryed
nat
long
after
/
but
whan
he
was
redy
departed
fro
Parys
/
and
dyde
so
moche
by
his
iourneys
/
that
he
came
to
Scluse
in
Flaunders
/
and
there
taryed
&
abode
for
wynde
and
passage
a
.xv.
dayes
/
for
the
wynde
was
contrary
for
him
.
And
in
the
meane
season
he
held
a
great
estate
/
and
well
stuffed
with
vessell
of
golde
and
syluer
through
out
his
hall
as
largely
/
as
though
he
had
bene

or

His
mynstrels
played

and
bare
as

garnisshed
with

/
and
his

Of
the
great

that
this
knight
kepte
in
his
house
and
in
the
stretes
/
dy●ers
of
the
towne
had
great

.
The

behelde

/
who

of

/
and

For

who
lay

/
&
the
duke
of
Bretayne
his

And
whan
th

and
by

of

The

set
his

and
rested

Wherof
the

What

for

so
the

coude
make

but
that

Bruges
to

And

Than

Of

Thy

But

Thou
haddest

sir
qd
the
knight
sauynge

.
Than
the
duke
of
Bretayne
toke

wordes
/
&
sayd
.
Among
you
bourders
and
ianglers
/
in
the

of

/
and
in

.
ye

at

for
ther

But

I
trust
there
wyll

so
many
of
suche
people
taken
/
that
the

wyll

full
of

.
The
knight
who
sa●styll
on
his
knees
/
was
ryght
sore
abasshed
of
those
wordes
/
for
the
hearyng
of
suche
wordes
was
right
harde
to
him
.
Howbeit
he
sawe
well
it
was
better
for
hym
to
kepe
his
tonge
than
to
speke
/
and
so
gaue
no
answere
to
those
wordes
And
whan
he
sawe
his
tyme
/
he
toke
his
leaue
of
th
erle
and
of
the
lordes
/
and
departed
out
of
their

.
and
some
noble
men
that
were
about
the
erle
made
hym
way
/
and
made
hym
to
drinke
:
and
than
he
returned
agayne
to
Sluse
to
his

.
And
I
shall
shewe

what
f●ll
after
.
Though
all
his
purueyance
were
redy
aparelled
/
and
that
he
had
wynd
at
wyll
to
haue
sayled
into
Scotlande
/
yet
he
durst
nat
put
himselfe
into
the
dangers
of
the
see
.
For
it
was
shewed
him
/
how
he
was
spyed
by
th
englysshmen
that
he
lay
at
Scluse
/
&
howe
that
if
he
kept
on
his
voiage
/
he
was
likely
to
be
taken
&
caryed
into
England
.
and
bicause
of
those
doutes
he
brake
his
vyage
and
returned
to
Parys
to
the
kyng
.
ye
may
well
knowe
/
that
the
lorde
of
Burnesell
tolde
no
lesse
to
the
frenche
kyng
/
than
was
done
to
him
by
the
erle
of
Flaunders
.
And
also
it
was
nedefull
for
him
to
tell
all
for
his
excuse
/
for
the
kyng
had
marueyle
of
his
retonrnyng
.
The
same
season
there
were
dyuers
knyghtis
in
the

/
and
specially
sir
John
of
Guystels
of
Heynalt
/
cosyn
to
th

/
who
had
great
displeasure
at
the
wordes
of
this

/
that
he

th
erle
of

.
so
that
finally
he
coude
kepe

sayd
.
I
can
nat
suffre
these
wordis
thus
to

And
sir

if

quarell
I

&
here

.
The
lorde
of
Bournesell
was
nothyng
abasshed
to
answere
/
but
sayd
.
sir
Johan
I
say
thus
/
howe
I
was
thus
taken
by
the
bayly
of
Sluse
/
and
brought
before
the
erle
of
Flaunders
:
and
as
ye
haue
herde
he
sayd
to
me
/
and
in
lykewise
so
dyde
the
duke
of
Bretayne
.
And
if
ye
wyll
say
contrary
/
to
this
I
wyll
receyue
your
gauge
.
I
wyll
say
so
qd
the
lorde
of
Guystelles
.
With
those
wordes
the
kynge
was
nat
content
/
and
sayde
.
Let
vs
go
hens
/
I
wyll

/
and
so
de●ted
〈◊〉
went

to
his

all
onely
with
his

〈…〉
right
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
at

〈◊〉
John
of

:
and
sayd
all
smylyng
.
He
hath
holden
fote
well
with
him
/
I
wolde
nat
for
xx
.
M.
frankes
but
that
he
had
done
so
.
And
after
it
fortuned
so
/
that
this
sir
Johan
of
Guystels
who
was
chamberlayn
with
the
kyng
/
was
so
yuell
beloued
in
the
courte
/
that
he
was
wery
therof
:
and
thought
nat
to
abyde
the
dangers
.
So
he
toke
leaue
of
the
kyng
/
and
departed
fro
the
court
/
and
went
into
Brabant
to
the
duke
Uy●●elant
of
Brabant
/
who
receyued
him
toyfully
.
The
french
kyng
was
sore
displeased
with
th
erle
of
Flanders
/
bicause
it
was
thought
by
●yuers
of
the
realme
/
that
he
had
letted
the
lorde
of
〈…〉
sell
of
his
●●age
in
to
Scotland
.
and
also
in
that
he
●eloe
styll
about
hym
the
duke
of
Bretayne
his
cosyn
/
who
was
greatly
in
the
kynges
displeasur
.
and
so
they
that
were
about
the
kyng
p●rceyued
well
/
howe
the
erle
of
Flaunders
was
nothyng
in
the
kynges
grace
.
ANone
after
the
kyng
wrote
sharpe
letis
to
his
cosyn
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
thretnyng
hym
:
bycause
he
susteyned
with
hym
the
duke
of
Bretayn
/
whom
he
reputed
to
be
his
enemy
.
The
erle
wrote
agayne
to
the
kyng
/
excusing
himselfe
aswell
as
he
might
:
but
it
aueyled
nothynge
.
For
the
kyng
sent
him
agayne
more
sharper
letters
/
shewyng
him
playnly
/
that
without
he
wolde
putte
the
duke
of
Bretayne
out
of
his
company
he
wolde
surely
displease
him
.
whan
th
erle
of
Flaunders
sawe
that
the
kyng
pursued
his
cause
with
suche
effect
/
than
he
toke
aduyse
in
hym selfe
/
and
thought
he
wolde
shewe
these
ma●a●●
h●s
&
thretnynges
to
his
good
townes
/
and
specially
to
Gaunt
/
to
knowe
what
they
wolde
say
to
the
mater
.
and
so
he
sent
to
Bruges
/
to
●pre
/
and
Cortrey
/
and
after
departed
/
and
the
duke
of
Bretayne
in
his
company
.
and
so
went
to
Gaunt
and
lodged
at
the
posterne
/
wher
he
was
●oyfully
receyued
of
the
burgesses
/
for
they
lo●ed
well
to
haue
him
among

.
And
〈…〉
han
the

such
as

:
th

assembled
them

there
he
made
be

the

And

C.

and
came

And
so

/
and
th

of
Cambridge
and
of

/
and
the

of

.
ye

how
sir
Ualeran
of

/
yong

of

Poule
was
taken
prisoner
/
bytwene
Arde

whan

was
taken
/
of
a
squier
a
man
of

of

.
So
this
yonge
erle
of
saynt
Poule
/
abode
longe
prisoner
in

or

was
delyuered
.
It
was

whyle
he

but
the

nor
the

of
Fraunce
wolde
in
no
wyse
here
therof
/
wherof
the
kyng
of
Englande
had
great

.
Thus
the

contynued
a
long
space
/
and
the
yong
erle
styll
prisoner
in
Englande
/
in
the
fayre

and

/
bytwene
Wynsore
and

:
he
was
beleued
on

The

the

mother
to
kyng
Richarde
lay
at
Wynsore
/
and
her
doughter
with
her
:
my

Maude
:
the

.
th

and
this

were
in

togyder

&
somtyme
they

And
than
the

discouered
to
her

/
howe
she
loued
faithfully

.
Than
there
was
a

age
spoken
of
/
bytwene
th
erle
of
saynt
Poule
/
&
the
lady
Maude
of
Holande
.
and
so
th
erle
was
set
to
his
raunsome
to
pay
sixscore
.
M.
frankes
/
so
that
whan
he

and

And
whan
this
couynant

was

:
the
kyng
of
Englande
suffred
the

see
to
fetche
his
raunsome
/
on
his
onely
promyse
/
to
retourne
agayne
within

So
the
erle
came
in
to
Fraunce
to
se
his
frendes
:
the
kyng
/
th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
the

and
his

.
In
the
same
yere
there
was
made
an
harde
informacyon
agaynst
the

/
for
it
was
layed
to
his
charge
/
that
he
shulde
delyuer
to
th
englysshmen
the
strong
castell
of
Bohaygne
.
and
so
the
frenche
kyng
caused
him
to
be
rested
/
and
kept
in
suretie
:
and
so
the
kynge
shewed
/
howe
th
erle
of
saynt
Poule
wolde
haue
made
an
yuell
treatie
for
hym
and
for

/
and
the

And

sir

all

effecte

for
there
coulde
nothynge
be

and
so

than
the
yong

retourned

/
to
acquyte
him
of

and
so
wedded

But
he
entred

bycause
the

And
so
he
and
the

¶
Nowe
lette
vs
leaue

THe

And

IN

other

.
And
night
&
day
they
ymagined
/
howe
they
myght
do
domage
to
them
of
Chierbourg
/
wherof
sir
John
Harlston
was
capitayne
.
and
they
of
the
garyson
of
Chierbourg
issued
out
oft
tymes
whan
it
pleased
them
for
whan
they
lyst
they
might
ryde
out
in
couerte
/
and
no
man
preuy
to
their

out
/
bycause
of
the
great

that
were

to

wherin

made
suche
a
way
that
they
might
ryde
in
to
Normandy
at
their
pleasure
/
without
danger
of
any
frenchemen
.
And
so
it
fortuned
in
the
same
season
/
that
the
french
menne
rode
abrode
/
and
they
of
Chierbourge
in
lykewise
/
none
of

knowynge
of

.
and
so
by
aduenture
they
mette
eche
other

at
a
place
called
Pastoy
in
the
●ode
.
Than
like
valyant
knightes
/
desyringe
to
fight
eche
with
other
a
lighted
a
fote
all

except
sir
Launcelotte
of

who
sat
styll
on

/
his

and
his

&
ther
demaunded
a
course
of
iustyng
for
his

.
Ther
were
ther
that
rightwell
vnderstode
him
/
for
ther
were
knightes
and
squiers
of
the
englysshe
parte
in
amours
/
aswell
as
he
was
.
And
as
I
vnderstode
/
sir
Johan
Coplande
a
right
hardy
knight
went
to
hym
/
and
so
they
ran
togyder
/
and
rudely
encountred
eche
other
.
But
th
englysshe
knight
gaue
sir
Launcelot
suche
a
stroke
on
his
shelde
/
that
the
speare
pearsed
throughout
his
body
/
and
so
was
wounded
to
dethe
:
the
which
was
great
domage
/
for
he
was
a
hardy
knight
yong
and
ioly
/
&
ryght
amorous
/
and
his
dethe
was
sore
complayned
bothe
ther
and
els
where
.
Than
the
englisshemen
and
frenchemen
encountred
togyder
/
and
fought
hande
to
hande
.
Ther
were
good
knightes
on
the
frenche
parte
/
as
sir
Wylliam
of
Burdes
/
the
lytell
seneshall
of

/
sir
Willm̄
Marsell

sir
Braque
of

and
dyuers
other
who
fought
ryght
valyantly

And
also
the
englyshmen
ther
fought
that
day
valiantly
/
sir
Johan
Harlston
/
sir
Philypart
Picourde
/
sir
John
Burle
/
sir
John
Coplande

and
dyuers

And
so
finally
by
good
fightyng
the
englisshmen
had
the
vyctorie
/
&
all
their
enemyes
knightes
and
squyers
taken

slayne

specially
a
squyer
of
Heynalt
called
Wylliam
of

&
sir

were

So
the
prisouers
were
brought
to
Chierbourge
/
&
there
they
founde
sir
Dlyuer
of
Clesquy
who
was
taken
prisoner
.
Thus
it
fell
of
this
iorney
as
I
was
enformed
.
¶
Also
in
Auuergne
and
Limosyn
there
fell
dayly
feates
of
armes
/
and
marueylous
enterprices
.
and
specially
of
the
castell
of
mount
Uentadore
in
Auuergne
/
the
whiche
was
one
of
the
strongest
castels
in
all
the
countre
/
the
whiche
was
betrayed
and
solde
to
a
breton
/
the
moost
oruell
knight
of
all
other
/
called
Geffray
Tetenoyre
/
I
shall
shewe
you
howe
it
was
.
The
erle
of
Tentadore
and
of
Mountpeser
was
a
right
auncyent
knyght
and
a
good
peasable
man
/
who
ocupyed
nomore
the
warr
/
but
kepte
hym
styll
in
his
house
.
This
erle
hadde
a
squyer
with
hym
/
called
Pouns
de
Boys
/
who
had
serued
hym
longe
:
and
had
but
a
smale
lyueng
or
profyte
by
his
seruyce
.
&
he
sawe
well
/
he
shulde
haue
but
a
lytell
profyte
by
his
mayster
.
Than
ther
ran
in
his
thought
an
vngracyous
deuise
/
for
he
went
and
made
a
secrete
treatie
with
this
Geffray
Tetenoyre
/
who
was
in
Limosyn
/
howe
that
he
wolde
delyuer
hym
the
castell
of
Uentadore
/
for
.vi.
M.
frankes
.
But
he
made
in
his
couenant
/
that
they
shulde
do
none
yuell
to
his
maister
th
erle
of
Uentadore
/
but
to
putte
hym
out
of
the
castell
in
courtesse
maner
/
and
his
good
with
hym
.
And
so
it
was
done
:
for
the
bretons
nor
englisshmen
that
entred
dyde
no
maner
of
hurt
to
the
erle
nor
to
none
of
his
men
/
nor
kept
nothyng
sauyng
vitayle
and
artyllary
/
whereof
ther
was
great
plentie
.
And
so
the
erle
/
his
wyfe
/
and
his
chyldren
/
went
to
Mountpeser
besyde
Agueperse
in
Auuergne
.
And
Geffray
Tetenoyre
and
his
company
kept
Uētador
/
wherby
they
dyde
moche
hurt
in
the
countre
.
and
so
toke
dyuers
stronge
castels
in

/
in
Rouergue
/
in
Limosin
in
Quercy
/
in
Gynalda

in

&
in

and
with
this
Tetnoyre
ther
were
other
capitayns
/
who
dyde
many
other
feates
of

as
Amergot
Marcell

a

who
toke

and
they
ouerrant

he
coude

for
in

he
fell

.
than
Amergot
and
his
company
made
hast
to
entre
/
and
so
entred
in
at
the
wycket
/
&
there
they
founde
the
porter
deed
/
&
this
wyfe
by
hym
right
sore
afrayed
/
to
whom
they
dyde
no
hurt
/
but
they
demaunded
of
her
wher
was
the
capitayne
.
and
she
answered
and
said
/
how
he
was
at
Cleremont
.
Than
they
assured
her
lyfe
/
so
she
wolde
delyuer
them
the
keys
of
the
castell
/
and
of
the
mayster
towre
/
and
so
she
dyde
:
&
than
they
put
her
out
with
asmoche
stuffe
as
she
coude
cary
away
with
her
.
&
so
she
went
to
saynt
Flour
a
cytie
but
a
leage
thens
/
and
they
of
the
cytie
were
sore
abasshed
whan
they
knewe
that
Alois
was
englisshe
:
and
so
was
all
the
countre
about
.
And
anone
after
/
Amergotte
Marcell
toke
the
strong
castell
of
Balon
/
by
stelth
of
scalyng
.
&
whan
they
were
within
/
the
capitayne
was
a
slepe
in
the
great
towre
/
which
towre
was
nat
likely
to
be
won
by
force
/
and
by
that
towre
the
castell
might
be
won
agayne
.
Than
Amergot
aduysed
him
of
a
subteltie
.
He
had
in
his
handes
the
father
and
mother
of
the
Capitayne
/
and
so
he
brought
them
before
the
towre
/
and
made
semblant
to
stryke
of
their
heedis
/
without
he
wolde
yelde
vp
the
towre
.
These
good
folkes
douted
dethe
/
and
sayde
to
their
sonne
/
who
was
in
the
towre
.
Sir
haue
pyte
on
vs
/
and
they
wept
pyteously
.
The
squier
thought
that
his
father
&
mother
shuld
neuer
dye
for
his
sake
/
and
so
yelded
vp
the
towre
:
than
they
put
hym
out
of
the
castell
.
Thus
Balone
was
englysshe
/
the
whiche
dyde
after
moche
trouble
to
the
countre
.
for
all
suche
as
thought
to
do
yuell
resorted
thyder
/
or

to
Causuryell
/
a
two
leages
fro
Lymoges
/
els
to
Carlat
/
to
Aloys
/
to
Uentadore

or
in
to
suche
other
places
.
and
whan
these
garisons
assembled
toguyder
/
they
were
to
the
nombre
of
sixe
hundred
speares
:
and
so
ranne
ouer
all
the
countre
and
into
the
countie
of
the
dolphyn
of
Auuergue
.
It
was
of
trouthe
that
the
lorde
of
Cupyer
was
to
them
a
great
enemey
/
in
lykewise
so
was
the
lord
of
Forterell
and
the
bastarde
of
Forterell
his

a
squyer
of
Burbonoyse

Who
by

of
armes

on
a
day
toke
Amergot
Marcell
prisoner

raunsomed

Thus
the

fortuned

ye
haue
well
herde
here
before
/
howe
by
the
exortacyon
of
the
romayns
.
The
cardynalles
/
who
as
than
raygned
/
to
apease
the
people
of
Rome
/
who
were
greatly
moued
agaynst
them
.
Made
a
pope
of
the
archbysshoprike
of
Bare
/
called
before
Bartylmewe
des
Angles
.
Hereceyued
the
papalyte
/
and
was
called
Urbayne
the
sire
/
and
so
opyned
grace
as
the
vsage
was
Th
entencyon
of
dyuers
of
the
cardynals
was
/
that
whan
they
myght
se
a
better
hour
&
tyme
/
they
wolde
agayn
returne
to
their
election
/
bycause
this
pope
was
nat
profytable
for
them
/
nor
also
to
the
church
as
they
said
/
for
he
was
a
f●m●sshe
man
and
malincolyous
.
So
that
whan
he
sawe
hym selfe
in
prosperyte
and
in
puyssance
of
the
papalyte
/
&
that
dyuers
kynges
christned
were
ioyned
to
him
/
and
wrote
to
him
/
and
dyde
put
them
vnder
his
obeysaunce
.
Wherof
he
wared
proude
/
and
worked
all
on
heed
:
and
wolde
haue
taken
away
fro
the
cardynals
/
dyuers
of
their
rightes
and
olde
customes
/
the
whiche
greatly
displeased
them
.
And
so
spake
togyder
/
and
ymagined
howe
he
was
nat
well
worthy
to
gouerne
the
worlde
.
Wherfore
they
purposed
to
those
another
pope
sage
and
discrete
/
by
whom
the
churche
shulde
be
well
gouerned
.
To
this
purpose
the
cardynals
putte
to
all
their
payne
/
and
specially
he
that
was
after
chosen
to
be
pope
.
Thus
all
a
somer
they
wer
in
this
purpose
/
for
they
that
entended
to
make
a
newe
pope
/
durst
nat
shewe
their
myndes
generally
/
bycause
of
the
romayns
.
So
that
in
the
tyme
of
the
vacacyon
in
the
courte
/
dyuers
cardynals
departed
fro
Rome
/
and
went
about
Rome
to
sport
them
/
in
dyuers
places
at
their
pleasure
.
&
pope
Urbane
went
to
another
cytie
called
Tyeulle
/
and
ther
〈◊〉
lay
a
long
season
.
in
this
vacacion
tyme
whiche
myght
nat
longe
endure
/
for
at
Rome
ther
were
many
clerkes
of
sundrie
places
of
the
worlde
/
abydinge
for
graces
/
the
whiche
was
promysed
to
dyuers
of
them
.
Than
the
cardynals
all
of
one
acorde
assembled
togyder
:
and
their
voyces
rested
on
sir
Robert
of
Genesue
/
somtyme
sonne
to
the
erle
of
Genesue
.
His
first
promocyon
was
/
he
was
bysshoppe
of
Therouene
/
and
after
bysshoppe
of
Cambrey
:
and
he
was
called
cardynall
of
Genesue
.
At
this
election
were
the
most
parte
of
the
cardynals
/
and
was
called
Clement
.
THe
same
season
/
there
was
in
the
marchesse
of
Rome
:
a
right
valyant
knight
of
Bretayne
/
called
Syluester
Bude
.
And
he
had
vnder
hym
a
two
thousande
bretons
/
and
in
the
yere
before
/
he
had
right
well
borne
hymselfe
agaynst
the
florentynes
/
vnder
pope
Gregorie
/
who
had
cursed
them
:
bycause
of
the
rebellyon
.
And
by
the
meanes
of
this
Syluester
Bude
/
they
were
come
to
mercy
.
Than
pope
Clement
and
the
cardynals
of
his
parte
/
secretly
sent
for
him
and
his
company
.
And
so
he
cā●
and
entred
in
to
the
castell
Angle
/
the
better
to
constrayne
the
romayns
.
So
pope
Urbayne
durst
nat
departe
fro
Tyeulle
/
nor
suche
cardynals
as
were
of
his
acorde
for
doute
of
the
bretons
/
they
were
so
great
a
nombre
:
and
all
chosen
men
of
warre
.
And
whan
the
romayns
saw
them selfe
in
that
danger
/
they
sent
for
other
soudyers
:
almayns
/
and
lumbardes
/
and
so
daylye
they
scrimysshed
with
the
bretons
.
Clement
opyned
his
graces
to
all
clerkis
/
suche
as
wolde
haue
it
.
And
so
he
signifyed
his
name
ouer
all
the
worlde
.
And
whan
the
frenche
kynge
/
who
as
than
raygned
was
certifyed
therof
:
he
had
great
marueyle
/
and
sent
for
his
brother
/
&
for
all
the
nobles
and
prelates
of
his
realme
.
And
for
the
rectour
and
maister
doctour
of
the
vnyuersyte
of
Parys
/
to
knowe
of
them
/
to
whiche
electyon
/
outher
the
first
or
the
seconde
/
that
he
shulde
holde
vnto
.
This
mater
was
nat
shortely
determyned
/
for
dyuers
clerkes
varyed
:
but
finally
all
the
prelates
of
Fraunce
enclyned
to
Clement
.
And
so
dyde
the
kynges
bretherne
and
the
moost
parte
of
the
vnyuersite
of
Parys
.
And
so
the
kynge
was
enformed
by
all
the
great
clerkes
of
his
realme
/
that
he
obeyed
to
pope
Clement
/
&
helde
him
for
the
true
pope
.
and
made
a
specyall
commaundement
through
oute
his
realme
/
that
euery
manne
shulde
take
and
repute
Clement
for
pope
.
And
that
euery
man
shulde
obey
him
/
as
god
on
erthe
.
The
king
of
Spaygne
was
of
the
same
opinyon
/
and
so
was
the
erle
of
Sauoy
/
the
duke
of
Myllayne
/
and
the
quene
of
Naples
.
The
beleuyng
thus
of
the
frenche
kyng
vpon
Clement
/
coloured
greatlye
his
dedes
/
for
the
realme
of
Fraunce
was
reputed
to
be
the
chiefe
fountayne
of
beleue
of
the
christen
faythe
/
bycause
of
the
noble
churches
and
prelasies
/
that
be
therin
.
As
than
lyued
Charles
of
Boesme
/
kyng
of
Almaygne
&
emperour
of
Rome
/
who
was
at
Praigne
in
Behayne
/
and
was
aduertised
of
all
these
maters
/
wherof
he
had
gret
marueyle
.
and
though
that
his
empyre
of
Almayne
/
except
the
bysshoprike
of
Trect
beleued
in
faithe
/
courage
/
and
entencyon
in
pope
Urbane
/
and
wolde
nat
here
spekyng
of
any
other
.
yet
he
fayned
and
dissymuled
all
his
lyfe
tyme
/
&
wolde
answere
whan
he
was
spoken
to
of
that
mater
so
courtesly
/
that
all
his
barons
and
prelates
of
his
realme
were
contente
.
Howe
be
it
the
churches
of
the
empyre
obeyed
pope
Urbayne
/
but
Scotlande
helde
of
Clement
.
The
erle
Loyes
of
Flaunders
was
greatly
agaynst
Clement
/
in
the
ꝑties
of
Brabant
/
Heynalt
/
and
in
Lege
/
for
he
wolde
euer
abyde
to
be
Urbanyst
.
Sayeng
/
howe
they
dyde
the
same
pope
great
wronge
.
And
this
erle
was
so
beleued
and
renomed
in
those
parties
/
wher
he
was
conuersant
/
that
the
churches
and
lordes
helde
of
the
same
opynion
.
But
they
of
Heynaulte
and
the
churches
there
/
and
the
lorde
called
Albert
abode
as
neutre
/
and
obeyed
no
more
to
one
than
to
the
other
.
Wherfore
the
bysshoppe
of
Cambrey
/
that
reygned
at
that
tyme
called
John
/
lost
in
Heynalt
all
the
reuenewes
of
his
temporalties
.
And
in
the
same
season
ther
was
sent
into
Fraunce
/
into
Heynalt
/
in
to
Flaunders
/
and
in
to
Brabant
fro
pope
Clement
.
The
cardynall
of
Poicters
/
a
right
wyse
/
valyant
/
and
a
sage
clerke
/
to
ensygne
and
to
preche
to
the
people
/
for
he
was
at
the
first
election
.
And
ther
he
shewed
howe
by
constraynt
/
they
chase
first
the
archebysshop
of
Bare
to
be
pope
.
The
frenche
kyng
and
his
bretherne
and
the
prelates
of
Fraunce
/
mekely
receyued
hym
/
and
gladly
entended
to
his
busynesse
&
wordes
:
for
it
semed
to
them
that
he
spake
all
trouthe
/
&
so
gaue
faythe
to
him
.
And
whan
he
had
ben
a
season
in
Fraunce
/
than
he
went
in
to
Heynalt
/
where
he
was
also
ioyously
receyued
.
In
lykewise
so
he
was
in
Brabant
/
bothe
of
the
duke
and
of
the
duchesse
/
but
he
dyd
ther
nothyng
els
.
He
thought
in
his
retournyng
to
haue
gone
into
Lege
/
but
he
toke
other
counsell
and
wente
nat
thyder
/
but
retourned
to
Tourney
/
and
thought
to
haue
gone
in
to
Flaunders
/
to
haue
spoken
with
th
erle
.
But
it
was
shewed
hym
that
he
had
nothyng
to
do
ther
/
bycause
the
erle
helde
and
wolde
holde
of
Urbayne
/
and
so
to
lyue
and
dye
.
Than
the
cardynall
departed
fro
Tourney
and
went
to
Ualencennes
/
and
so
to
Cambrey
/
and
there
he
lay
a
longe
space
/
in
hope
alwayes
to
here
some
good
tidynges
.
THus
the
christen
realmes
were
in
variacyon
/
and
the
churches
in
great
dysference
/
bycause
of
the
popes
.
Urbayne
had
the
greatter
partie
/
but
to
speke
of
the
moost
profytable
reuenewes
&
playne
obeysance
/
Clement
had
it
.
And
so
Clement
by
consent
of
the
cardynals
/
sent
to
Auygnon
to
make
redy
the
paleys
there
for
hym
/
for
his
entent
was
to
go
thyder
/
assoone
as
he
might
.
And
so
he
went
to
the
cyte
of
Foundes
/
and
there
opyned
his
graces
.
Thyder
drewe
all
maner
of
clerkes
/
suche
as
wolde
take
grace
:
and
he
kept
about
in
vyllages
many
soudyers
/
who
made
great
warre
to
Rome
/
and
to
the
bourage
of
saynt
Peter
/
and
traueyled
them
day
&
night
with
dyuers
assautes
and
scrimysshes
.
And
also
they
that
were
in
the
castell
Angle
without
Rome
/
dyd
moche
trouble
to
the
romayns
.
But
they
of
Rome
enforsed
themselve
so
with
soudyers
/
almayns
/
and
with
the
puyssance
of
Rome
/
so
that
they
assembled
toguyder
on
a
day
/
and
conquered
the
bourage
of
saynt
Peter
.
Than
the
bretons
drewe
them
in
to
the
castell
of
Angle
/
howe
be
it
they
were
so
handled
by
force
of
armes
/
that
they
gaue

Than
the
bretons
departed

He
was
right
sore
displeased
/
and
studyed
howe
to
be
reuenged
of
the
romayns
.
It
was
shewed
him
by
his
spyes
/
howe
on
a
day
the
romayns
/
and
the
noblest
men
of
the
cytie
of
Rome
/
shulde
assemble
togyder
in
counsayle
in
the
Capitolle
.
Assoone
as
he
knewe
that
/
he
assembled
toguyder
a
certayne
nombre
/
and
rode
forth
by
couert
wayes
secretly
/
and
so
came
to
Rome
in
the
euenynge
/
and
entred
in
at
the
gate
of
Naples
.
Whan
these
bretons
were
within
/
they
toke
the
streyght
way
to
the
Capitoll
/
&
came
thyder
as
the
counsell
of
Rome
were
issued
out
of
the
chambre
.
Than
the
bretons
couched
their
speares
/
and
ranne
in
among
them
:
and
slewe
and
bete
downe
a
great
nombre
of
the
moost
notablest
of
the
cite
.
Ther
was
slayne
a
sixe
baneretes
/
and
a
two
hundred
of
other
riche
persons
/
and
a
great
nombre
hurt
.
and
whan
these
bretons
hadde
done
their
enterprise
/
they
withdrewe
them
agaynst
night
/
and
than
it
began
to
be
late
so
that
they
were
nat
pursued
:
what
for
they
night
&
for
the
sodayne
fray
that
they
were
in
.
for
they
wyst
nat
what
to
do
/
but
to
take
hede
of
their
frendes
that
were
sore
hurte
.
So
they
passed
that
nyght
in
great
dystresse
and
sorowe
of
herte
/
and
soo
buryed
the
deed
/
and
dressedde
the
hurte
.
And
in
the
mornyng
/
the
romayns
aduysed
them selfe
of
a
great
crueltie
/
for
the
poore
clerkis
that
were
in
Rome
and
were
in
no
faute
:
they
slewe
and
hurt
of
them
mo
than
thre
hundred
/
and
specially
bretons
that
fell
in
their
handes
/
ther
was
no
mercy
.
Thus
went
the
maters
in
Rome
by
reason
of
the
state
of
the
popes
/
and
dayly
they
bought
it
dere
/
suche
as
were
without
faute
.
IN
the
meane
season
that
Clement
and
his

lay
thus
at

/
the
quene

Napoles
came

And

And
holy

so
it
was
that
after
his
discease
:
by
the
consent
of
all

of
Cecyll

.
I

of

:
by

I
hadde
no

for

yonge

in

.
And
after
his
discease
/
I
was
maryed
agayne
to
the
prince
of
Tarent
/
who
was
called
Charles
/
and
by
him
I
had
a
doughter
.
Than
the
kyng
of
Hungry
/
for
the
displeasure
that
he
hadde
to
Andrewe
his
brother
my
first
husbande
/
went
and
made
warre
agaynst
my

Charles
of
Tarent
/
and
toke
fro

Puyll
and
Calabre
/
&
toke
him
in

and
ledde
him
to
prison
in
to
Hungry
:
and
there
he
dyed
.
And
yet
after
agayne
by
the
acorde
of
the
nobles
of
Cecyll
/
I
maryed
agayne
kynge
James
of
Maiogres
/
and
sent
in
to
Fraunce
for
sir
Loys
of
Nauer
to
haue
maryed
my
doughter
/
but
he
dyed
by
the
way
.
Than
it
fell
so
/
that
the
kyng
my
husbande
went
to
conquere
his
herytage
of
Maiogres
/
the
whiche
the
kyng
of
Arragon
had
taken
fro
him
byforce
/
and
had
dysheryted
him
:
and
caused
his

to
dye
in
prison
.
And
or
he
departed
fro

/
I
sayd
to

.
Sir

I

and
shewed

so
many

reasons
/
desyring
to

/
so
that
I
was

But
at

I
desyred
hym

was
his
hurt
/
for
he
went
to
the
prince
of
Wales
/
who
promysed
to

So
he
had
greatter
trust
in
the
price
of
Wales
than
in
the

to

I
was
nere

who
wedded
my

:
and
in
the
vyage
that

ben
ouerthrowen
by
the
erle
of
Uertues
and
the
lombardes
/
if
this
Haconde
hadde
nat
ben

for
he
came
to
his
ayde
with
fyue
hundred
/
bycawse
the
lorde
Coucy
had
wedded
the
kynge
of
Englandes
doughter
/
&
for
none
other
cause
This
sir
Johan
Haconde
was
a
knyght
right
hardy
and
of
great
experyence
/
and
well
renomed
in
the
marches
of
Italy
/
and
dyd
there
many
great
feates
of
armes
.
Than
the
romayns
and
Urbayne
/
who
called
him selfe
pope
/
aduysed
in
them selfe
/
whan
Clement
was
departed
fro
the
marches
of
Rome
/
to
sende
for
him
/
and
to
make
him
mayster
&
gouernour
of
all
their
warre
.
So
they
sent
for
him
/
and
retayned
him
and
all
his
company
/
and
he
acquyted
him selfe
right
valiantly
/
for
on
a
daye
/
with
the
helpe
of
the
romayns
he
disconfyted
Syluester
Bude
/
and
a
great
company
of
bretons
/
so
that
they
were
all
slayn
or
taken
.
&
Syluester
Bude
brought
prisoner
to
Rome
/
and
was
in
great
daunger
to
lese
his
heed
.
And
to
say
the
trouth
/
it
had
ben
better
for
hym
/
to
haue
been
beheeded
the
same
day
he
was
brought
to
Rome
/
than
otherwyse
for
the
honoure
of
him
and
of
his
frendes
.
For
afterwarde
/
pope
Clement
caused
hym
to
lese
his
heed
in
the
cytie
of
Mascon
/
and
another
squier
of
Breton
with
him
called
Wyllm
Boyleau
/
for
they
were
had
in
suspect
of
treason
/
bycause
they
were
issued
out
of
the
romayns
prison
/
and
coulde
nat
be
knowen
by
what
treaty
or
meanes
/
and
so
they
came
to
Auygnon
and
there
were
taken
.
Of
their
takynge
was
culpable
the
cardynall
of
Amyens
/
for
he
hated
them
sythe
they
made
warre
in
Rome
for
the
pope
/
bycause
in
the
feldes
on
a
daye
/
they
and
their
companyes
toke
the
sayd
cardynalles
somersꝭ
wherin
they
had
a
great
quantyte
of
vessell
and
plate
of
golde
&
syluer
/
and
departed
it
among
their
companyes
/
who
coulde
nat
be
payed
of
their
wages
/
wherfore
the
same
cardynall
toke
the
same
deade
in
great
displeasure
/
and
so
couertly
accused
them
of
treason
.
So
that
whan
they
were
come
to
Auygnon
treason
was
layd
to
theym
/
howe
they
had
falsly
betrayed
the
pope
and
thervpon
sent
to
Mascon
/
and
there
beheeded
bothe
.
Thus
the
maters
went
at
that
tyme
in
those
countreis
/
and
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
was
sore
displeased
/
for
the
dethe
of
Syluester
Bude
his
cosyn
/
with
pope
Clement
/
and
with
the
cardinals
.
so
that
it
he
had
lyued
long
after
they
shuld
well
haue
knowen
that
his
d●th
had
bene
ryght
sore
displesant
to
hym
.
¶
Nowe
lette
vs
leaue
to
speke
of
these
maters
and
let
vs
entre
to
speke
of
the
warres
of
Flaunders
/
the
whiche
began
in
the
same
season
.
whiche
were
harde
and
cruell
/
wherby
moche
people
were
slayne
and
exyled
/
&
the
countre
tourned
in
to
suche
a
case
.
that
it
was
sayde
:
that
in
a
hundred
yere
after
/
it
shulde
nat
be
recouered
agayne
.
And
I
shall
shewe
you
by
what
meane
and
occasyons
/
the
vnhappy
warres
began
.
Whan
the
tribulacyons
began
first
in
Flaunders
/
the
countre
was
so
welthy
and
so
riche
/
that
it
was
meruayle
to
here
.
and
the
men
of
the
good
townes
kept
suche
estate
/
that
it
was
wonder
to
here
tell
therof
.
but
these
warres
began
first
by
pride
and
enuy
/
that
the
good
townes
in
Flaunders
had
one
against
another
/
as
they
of
Gaunt
agaynst
than
of
Bruges
/
and
they
of
Bruges
agaynst
them
of
Gaunt
/
and
other
townes
one
agaynst
another
.
but
there
was
suche
resort
that
no
warr
coude
ryse
among
them
/
without
th
erle
of
Flaunders
their
lorde
dyd
consent
therto
/
for
he
was
so
feared
and
beloued
/
that
none
durste
displease
him
.
Also
the
erle
who
was
ryght
sage
and
subtell
/
kept
vnder
the
warr'
and
yuell
wyll
of
his
people
/
for
he
wolde
in
no
wyse
suffre
no
warre
to
ryse
among
them
and
him
.
for
well
he
thought
in
his
ymaginacyons
/
that
whan
any
difference
shulde
ryse
bytwene
him
and
his
people
/
he
shulde
be
the
febler
/
and
the
lesse
set
by
of
his
neighbours
.
Also
he
kept
vnder
the
warre
for
another
cause
/
howbeit
at
th
ende
he
was
driuen
to
vse
it
.
And
that
was
/
he
consydred
the
gret
distructyon
that
shulde
fall
therby
/
bothe
of
bodies
and
goodes
.
For
alwayes
he
had
lyued
in
great
prosperyte
and
peace
/
and
had
as
moche
his
pleasure
as
any
other
christen
prince
had
/
but
this
warr
began
for
so
light
a
cause
and
in
sydent
/
that
iustely
to
consyder
&
speke
.
●f
good
wytte
and
sage
aduyse
had
been
in
the
lorde
/
he
neded
nat
to
haue
hadde
any
maner
of
warre
.
What
shall
they
saye
/
that
redeth
this
or
hereth
it
redde
?
But
that
it
was
the
warke
of
the
deuyll
.
For
ye
knowe

ye
haue
herde
say
of

Howe

And

how

and
so
it

¶
Of
the
princypall
rote
and
cause
of
the
warre
/
bytwene
the
erle
of
Flaunders
and
the
flemynges
.
And
howe
the
whyte
hattes
were
set
vp
by
Johan
Lyon
.
Cap.
CCC
.xlviii.
THe
same
season
:
whyle
the
duke
Loys
of
Flaunders
was
in
his
greattest
prosperyte
.
Ther
was
in
Gaunt
a
burgesse
(
called
Johan
Lyon
)
a
sage
man
:
cruell
/
hardy
/
subtell
/
and
a
great
enterpriser
:
and
colde
and
pacient
ynough
in
all
his
warkes
.
This
John
Lyon
was
great
with
the
erle
/
as
it
apered
/
for
the
erle
entysed
him
to
slee
a
man
in
Gaunt
/
with
whōehe
was
displeased
.
And
at
the
erles
commaundement
couertly
/
this
Johan
Lyon
made
a
matter
to
him
/
and
so
fell
out
with
hym
and
slewe
hym
/
the
whiche
burgesse
was
sore
complayned
▪
and
therfore
John
Lyon
went
&
dwelt
at
Doway
/
and
was
there
a
.iii.
yere
/
and
helde
a
great
estate
and
porte
/
and
all
of
th
erles
cost
.
and
for
this
slaughter
on
a
day
/
Johan
Lyon
lost
all
that
euer
he
had
in
Gaunt
/
and
was
banysshed
the
towne
foure
yere
but
after
the
erle
of
Flaunders
dyd
so
moch
for
him
/
that
he
made
his
peace
/
and
so
to
returne
a
gayne
to
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
&
to
haue
agayne
as
great
fraunches
as
euer
he
had
/
wherof
dyuers
in
Gaunt
and
in
Flaunders
hadde
great
meruayle
/
and
were
ther
with
ryght
sore
abasshed
/
but
for
all
that
so
it
was
done
.
And
besyde
that
/
to
th
entent
that
he
shulde
recouer
agayne
his
losse
/
and
to
mayntayne
his
astate
/
the
erle
made
him
chefe
ruler
of
all
the
shyppes
/
maryners
/
and
Nauy
.
This
office
was
well
worthe
by
yere
a
thousand
frankes
/
and
yet
to
deale
but
trewely
.
Thus
this
Johan
Lyon
was
so
great
with
the
erle
that
there
was
none
lyke
him
.
IN
the
same
season
there
was
anotherlygnage
in
Gaunte
/
called
the
Mahewes
.
Ther
were
of
them
seuyn
bretherne
/
they
were
the
chiefe
of
all
the
maryners
.
And
amonge
these
seuyn
bretherne
/
there
was
one
of
theym
called
Gylbert
Mahewe
:
a
ryght
sage
manne
/
moche
more
subtell
than
any
of
his
bretherne
.
This
Gylbert
Mahue
had
great
enuy
couertly
at
this
Johan
Lyon
/
bycause
he
sawe
him
so
great
with
the
erle
/
and
studyed
night
and
day
howe
he
myght
put
him
out
of
fauoure
with
the
erle
.
Dyuers
tymes
he
was
in
mynde
to
haue
slayne
him
by
his
brethern
/
but
he
durst
nat
for
for
feare
of
the
erle
.
So
long
he
studyed
and
ymagined
on
this
mater
/
that
at
laste
he
founde
the
way
.
The
chiefe
cause
that
he
hated
him
for
was
:
as
I
shall
shewe
you
/
the
better
to
come
to
the
found
acyon
of
this
mater
.
Aunciently
ther
was
in
the
towne
of
Dan
a
great
mortall
warr
bytwene
two
maryners
/
&
their
lynages
.
The
one
called
Peter
Guillon
/
and
the
other
John
Barde
:
Gilbert
mahewe
&
his
bretherne
were
come
of
the
one
lynage
/
and
this
Johan
Lyon
of
the
other
.
So
this
couert
hate
was
long
norysshed
bitwene
these
two
paties
/
how beit
they
spake
and
ete
and
dranke
to
gyder
.
and
the
lynage
of
Gylbart
Mahewe
/
made
more
a
do
of
the
mater
/
than
Johan
Lyon
dyd
.
In
so
moche
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
without
any
stroke
gyuyng
aduysed
a
subtell
dede
.
The
erle
of
Flaunders
wolde
some
tyme
lye
at
Gaunt
/
than
this
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
came
and
aquaynted
hymselfe
with
one
of
them
that
was
nere
aboute
the
erle
/
and
on
a
day
sayd
to
him
.
Sir
:
if
my
lord
th
erle
wolde
/
he
might
haue
euery
yere
a
great
profyte
of
the
shyppes
and
nauy
/
wherof
he
hath
nowe
nothyng
/
whiche
profyte
the
straungers
and
the
maryners
shulde
paye
/
so
that
Johan
Lyon
who
is
chiefe
ruler
there
/
wyll
truely
acquyte
him selfe
.
This
gentylman
sayd
he
wolde
shewe
this
to
the
erle
/
and
so
he
dyde
.
The
erle
than
/
in
lykewyse
as
dyuers
lordes
are
lyghtly
enclyned
naturally
to
harken
to
their
profytte
/
and
nat
regardyng
the
ende
/
what
may
fall
therby
/
so
they
may
haue
riches
/
for
couytousnes
disceyueth
them
.
he
answerd
and
sayd
.
let
Gylbert
〈◊〉
come
to
me
/
and
we
wyll
here
what
he
wyll
say
.
Than
came
Gylbert
and
spake
with
the
erle
/
shewynge
him
dyuers
reasons
resonable
as
the
erle
thought
/
and
so
answered
&
sayd
.
I
thynke
it
were
well
done
that
it
shulde
be
thus
.
Than
John
Lyon
was
sent
for
/
who
knewe
nothyng
of
this
mater
/
and
there
in
the
presence
of
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
the
erle
shewed
him
all
the
mater
and
sayd
:
John
if
ye
woll
/
we
may
haue
great
profyte
in
this
mater
.
Johan
Lyon
/
who
was
a
true
man
.
sawe
well
it
was
nat
a
thynge
resonable
to
be
done
howe
be
it
he
durst
nat
say
the
contrary
/
but
sayd
.
Sir
:
that
thyng
that
ye
demaunde
/
and
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
hathe
brought
forthe
/
I
can
nat
do
it
alone
/
for
it
wyll
be
a
hard
mater
to
all
the
maryners
.
Johan
qd
th
erle
/
if
ye
wyll
acquyte
you
truely
in
this
mater
/
it
wyll
be
done
.
sir
qd
he
:
I
shall
do
therin
the
best
of
by
power
/
&
soo
they
departed
.
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
who
intended
to
brynge
out
of
fauoure
this
Johan
Lyon
with
the
erle
/
entended
to
none
other
thyng
/
but
to
make
hym
lese
his
offyce
.
Than
he
came
to
his
sixe
bretherne
and
sayd
/
sirs
.
it
is
tyme
nowe
that
ye
socoure
and
ayde
me
/
and
to
mayntayne
this
mater
as
good
trendes
and
brethern
shulde
helpe
eche
other
/
it
is
for
you
that
I
haue
dryuen
about
this
mater
/
I
shall
discomfyt
John
Lyon
without
any
stroke
strykyng
/
and
shall
bryng
him
in
as
great
displeasure
with
the
erle
/
as
he
is
nowe
great
and
in
fauoure
.
Whatsoeuer
I
say
in
the
ne●t
parlyament
/
kepe
youre
owne
openyons
/
for
if
the
erle
requyre
you
to
do
suche
a
thynge
debate
you
well
the
matter
/
but
I
wyll
say
styll
and
mayntayne
/
that
it
Johan
Lyon
wyll
truely
acquyte
him selfe
/
this
ordynance
may
be
done
.
And
I
knowe
so
moche
/
that
my
lorde
the
erle
if
the
mater
come
nat
to
his
entent
/
Johan
Lyon
shall
lease
his
fauoure
and
offyce
/
and
gyue
the
offyce
to
me
.
And
whan
I
ones
haue
it
than
ye
shall
agre
therto
/
we
are
puyssant
ynough
in
this
towne
to
rule
all
the
resydue
/
there
is
none
wyll
say
agaynst
vs

and
than
I
shall
do
so
that
John
Lyon
shal
be
ouerthrowen
.
thus
we
shall
be
reuenged
on
him
without
any
stroke
gyuyng
/
all
his
brethern
accorded
to
him
.
So
the
parlyament
came
/
and
all
the
maryners
were
redy
.
There
Johan
Lyon
/
and
Gylbert
Mahewe
shewed
them
the
erles
pleasure
on
the
newe
statute
that
he
wold
reyse
on
the
nauy
of
Lys
and
Lescaulte
/
the
whiche
thynge
semed
to
them
all
ryght
hard
/
and
contrary
to
their
olde
custome
.
and
the
chiefe
that
spake
there
agaynste
were
Gylbert
Mahewes
bretherne
/
more
than
any
other
.
Than
Johan
Lyon
who
was
chiefe
ruler
of
them
all
.
was
ryght
ioyouse
/
for
he
wolde
to
his
true
power
mayntayne
them
in
their
olde
auncyent
fraunchesses
and
lyberties
.
And
he
went
that
all
that
they
sayde
had
bene
for
him
/
but
it
was
contrary
/
for
it
was
for
an
euyll
entent
towardes
him
.
Johan
Lyon
reported
to
the
erle
the
answere
of
the
maryners
/
and
sayd
.
sir
:
it
is
a
thynge
can
nat
be
well
done
/
for
great
hurt
may
come
therby
.
sir
:
and
it
please
you
let
the
mater
rest
in
the
olde
auncyent
estate
/
and
make
no
newe
thyng
amonge
them
.
This
answere
pleased
nothyng
the
erle
/
for
he
sawe
that
if
the
mater
might
be
brought
vp
and
reysed
/
it
shulde
be
well
worth
to
him
yerely
a
seuen
thousande
florens
/
so
he
helde
his
peace
as
at
that
tyme
/
but
he
thought
the
more
.
And
soo
pursewed
by
fayre
wordis
&
treaties
these
maryners
/
but
alwayes
Johan
Lyon
founde
them
ryght
obstynate
in
the
case
.
Than
Gylbert
Mahewe
came
to
the
erle
and
to
his
counsayll
/
and
sayd
:
howe
that
John
Lyon
aquyted
him
but
slackely
in
the
mater
/
but
and
the
erle
wolde
gyue
him
the
offyce
that
Johan
Lyon
hathe
/
he
wolde
so
handell
the
maryners
/
that
the
erle
of
Flaunders
shulde
heretably
haue
the
sayd
profyte
.
The
erle
sawe
nat
clere
/
for
couytusnes
of
the
good
blynded
him
/
&
by
his
owne
counsayll
he
put
John
Lyon
out
of
the
offyce
/
and
gaue
it
to
Gylbert
Mahewe
.
Whan
Gylbert
Mahewe
sawe
howe
he
had
the
offyce
/
within
a
lytell
space
he
turned
all
his
syxe
bretherne
to
his
purpose
/
&
so
made
the
erle
to
haue
his
entent
and
profyt
/
wherfore
he
was
neuer
the
better
beloued
of
the
most
parte
of
the
maryners
.
howebeit
it
behoued
them
to
suffer
/
for
the
seuen
brethern
were
great
and
puyssant
/
with
the
ayde
of
the
erle
.
Thus
by
this
subtell
meanes
Gylbert
Mahewe
get
him
●elfe
in
fauoure
with
the
erle
/
and
he
gaue
many
gyftes
/
and
ioweles
to
them
that
were
nere
about
the
erle

wherby
he
had
their
loues
.
And
also
he
gaue
many
great
presentes
to
the
erle
/
the
whiche
blynded
him
/
and
so
by
that
meanes
he
gate
his
loue
/
and
all
these
gyftes
and
presentes
this
Gylbert
Mahewe
reysed
of
the
maryners
/
wherof
there
were
many
that
were
nat
well
content
/
howbeit
they
durst
speke
no
worde
to
the
contrary
.
IOhan
Lyon
by
this
meanes
/
and
by
the
purchase
of
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
was
out
of
the
erls
fauoure

loue
.
and
so
kept
his
howse
and
lyued
of
his
owne
/
and
endured
and
suffered
paciently
all
that
euer
was
done
to
him

for
this
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
who
as
than
was
chefe
ruler
of
all
the

couertly
euer
hated
this

&
toke
away
the
thirde
or
fourth
parte
of
the
profyte
that
he
shulde
haue
had
of
his

.
All
this
John
Lyon
suffered
&
spake
no
worde
/
but
sagely
dissymuled
&
toke
in
gre
/
all
that
euer
was
done
to
him

and
sayd
.
Ther
is
tyme
to
be
styll

&
tyme
to

.
This
Gylbert
Mahewe
had
one
brother
called
Stenuart
a
subtell
man
/
who
aduysed
well
the
maner
of
Johan
Lyon
/
and
sayd
to
his

in
prophesyeng
as
it
came
to
passe
.
Sirs
this
John
Lyon
suffereth
nowe
/
and
hangeth
downe

/
he
dothe
it

but
I
feare
me
he
wyll
at

/
than
we
be

but
I
counsayle

that
whyle
we
be
thus
in
the
erles
fauour
/
letre
vs
slee
hym
.
I
shall
soone
s●e
him
/
if
I
take
the
charge
to
do
it
:
and
so
we
shall
be
out
of
all
parelles
.
his
other
bretherne
wolde
in
no

consent
therto
/
and
sayd
to
him
/
that
in
no
wyse
he
shulde
do
him
any
hurt
/
sayeng
to
him
:
howe
a
man
ought
nat
to
be
slayne
/
without
the
sentence
of
a
Judge
.
Thus
the
matter
contynued
a
certayne
space
/
tyll
the
deuyll
who
neuer
slepeth
/
awaked
them
of
Bruges
/
to
digge
about
the
ryuer
of
Lys
/
to
haue
the
easment
of
the
course
of
the
water
/
And
the
erle
was
well
accorded
to
them
/
and
sent
great
nombre
of
pioners
and
men
of
armes
to
assyste
them
.
Before
that
in
tyme
past
they
wold
haue
done
the
same
/
but
they
of
Gaunt
by
puyssance
brake
their
purpose
.
These
tydynges
came
to
Gaunt
/
howe
they
of
Bruges
were
byggynge
to
turne
the
course
of
the
ryuer
of
Lys
/
the
which
shulde
greatly
be
to
the
preiudyse
of
Gaunte
.
many
folkes
in
the
towne
began
to
murmure
/
and
specyally
the
maryners
/
for
it
touched
them
nere
.
wherfore
they
sayd
.
they
of
Bruges
shuld
nat
be
suffred
so
to
dygge
/
to
haue
the
course
of
theryuer
to
them
/
wherby
their
towne
shulde
be
distroyed
.
And
some
said
preuely
/
a
god
help
nowe
Johan
Lyon
/
for
if
he
hadd
ben
styll
our
gouernoure
/
it
shulde
nat
haue
been
thus
.
they
of
Bruges
wolde
nat
haue
been
so
hardy
to
attempt
so
farre
agaynst
vs
.
Johan
Lyon
was
well
aduertysed
of
all
these
matters
.
Than
he
began
a
lytell
to
wake
/
and
sayd
to
him selfe
.
I
haue
slept
a
season
/
but
it
shall
apere
/
that
for
a
small
occasyon
I
shall
wake
/
and
shall
set
suche
a
trymble
bitwene
this
towne
and
the
erle
/
that
it
shall
coste
perauenture
a
hundred
thousande
mennes
lyues
.
The
tidynges
of
these
dyggers
encreased
.
So
it
was
/
ther
was
a
woman
that
come
fro
her
pilgrymage
from
our
lady
of
Bolayne
(
who
was
wery
)
and
sate
downe
in
the
market
place
/
where
as
ther
were
dyuers
men
/
and
some
of
them
demaunded
of
her
fro
whens
she
came
/
she
answered
fro
Bolayne
.
and
I
haue
sene
by
the
way
/
the
greatest
myschefe
that
euer
came
to
this
towne
of
Gaunte
.
for
there
be
mo
than
fyue
hundred
pioners
/
that
night
and
day
worketh
before
the
ryuer
of
Lys
/
and
if
they
be
nat
let
/
they
wyll
shortly
torne
the
course
of
the
water
.
This
womans
wordes
was
well
harde
and
vnderstande
/
in
dyuers
places
of
the
towne
.
Than
they
of
the
towne
began
to
mone
&
sayd
,
this
dede
ought
nat
to
be
suffred
/
nor
consented
vnto
.
Than
dyuers
went
to
Johan
Lyon
/
and
demaunded
counsayll
of
him
/
howe
they
shuld
vse
them selfe
in
this
mater
.
And
whan
Johan
Lyon
sawe
him selfe
sought
on
/
by
them
whom
he
desyred
to
haue
their
good
wylles
and
loue
/
he
was
greatly
reioysed
/
howe
be
it
he
made
no
semblant
of
ioye
.
For
he
thought
it
was
nat
as
than
yet
tyme
/
tyll
the
mater
were
better
a
certayned
/
and
so
he
was
sore
desyred
or
he
wolde
speke
or
declare
his
thought
/
and
whan
he
spake
he
sayd
.
Sirs
:
if
ye
wyll
aduenture
to
remedy
this
mater
/
it
behoue
that
in
this
towne
of
Gaunte
/
ye
renewe
an
olde
auncyent
custome
/
that
somtime
was
vsed
in
this
towne
/
and
that
is
/
that
ye
brynge
vp
agayne
the
whyte
hattes
/
and
that
they
maye
haue
a
chiefe
ruler
/
to
whome
they
maye
drawe
/
and
by
him
be
ruled
.
These
wordes
were
gladly
herde
/
and
than
they
sayd
all
with
one
voyce
/
we
wyll
haue
it
so
.
lette
vs
reyse
vp
these
whyte
hattes
.
Than
there
were
made
whyte
hattes
/
and
gyuen
and
delyuered
/
to
such
as
loued
better
to
haue
warre
than
peace
for
they
had
nothynge
to

.
And
there
they
chase
Johan
Lyon
to
be
cheife
gouernoure
of
all
the
whyte
hattes
.
The
whiche
offyce
he
toke

discorde
bytwene
the
townes
of
Bruges
and
Gaunt

and
the

And
so
it
was
ordeyned

that
they
shuld
go
out

rather

IOhan

departed

in

There

Than

The

wherwith
they
were
sore
displeased

By

GIlbert
Mahewe
and
the
ruler
of
the
meane
craftis
/
who
was
of
Gylbertes
parte
/
herde
with
their
owne
eares
dayly
suche
wordes
/
&
knew
well
/
howe
they
dyde
ryse
by
Johan
Lyon
/
but
they
durst
nat
remedy
it
:
for
Johan
Lyon
hadde
sowed
throughout
the
towne
the
whyte
hattes
/
and
gyuen
them
to
suche
companyons
hardy
and
outragyous
/
in
such
wyse
that
none
durst
assayle
them
.
And
also
Johan
Lyon
wente
neuer
alone
▪
for
whan
soeuer
that
he
went
out
of
his
house
/
he
had
euer
with
hym
a
two
or
thre
hundred
whyte
hattes
about
him
/
nor
he
neuer
wente
abrode
in
the
towne
/
without
it
hadde
bene
for
a
great
cause
▪
for
he
was
greatlye
desyred
to
haue
his
counsayle
/
on
the
insydentes
/
that
fell
within
Gaunt
and
without
:
conseruynge
the
fraunchesse
of
the
towne
and
lyberties
therof
.
And
whan
he
was
in
counsayle
/
than
he
wold
shewe
a
generall
word
to
the
people
.
He
spake
in
soo
fayre
rethorike
/
&
by
so
great
craft
:
that
suche
as
herde
hym
/
were
gretlye
reioysed
of
his
langage
.
And
wolde
say
all
with
one
voyce
/
that
all
was
true
that
he
sayd
.
By
great
prudence
Johan
Lyon
sayd
to
the
people
.
Sirs
/
I
say
nat
that
we
shulde
hurt
or
my
nysshe
any
parte
of
my
lorde
the
erles
enherytance
/
for
though
we
wolde
we
canna●
:
For
reason
&
iustyce
wolde
nat
suffre
vs
.
Nor
that
we
shulde
seke
any
crafte
or
incydent
/
wherby
we
shulde
be
in
his
displeasur
or
indygnacion
.
for
we
ought
alwayes
/
to
be
in
loue
and
fauoure
with
our
prince
and
lorde
.
and
my
lorde
th
erle
of
Flaunders
is
our
good
lorde
/
and
a
right
hye
prince
feared
and
renomed
/
and
alwayes
hath
kepte
vs
in
peace
and
prosperyte
.
The
whiche
thynges
we
ought
to
knowe
/
and
to
suffre
the
more
largely
.
More
bounde
we
are
therto
/
than
if
he
had
traueyled
vs
or
displeased
vs
/
or
made
warre
or
hared
vs
/
and
to
haue
put
to
his
payne
to
haue
our
goodes
.
But
howe
soeuer
it
be
/
at
this
present
tyme
he
is
yuell
counsayled
or
enformed
agaynst
vs
/
and
agaynst
the
fraunchesses
of
the
good
towne
of
Gaunte
.
In
that
they
of
Bruges
be
more
in
his
fauoure
than
we
.
It
apereth
well
by
the
pioners
of
Bruges
/
that
he
beyng
there
:
they
came
to
take
away
our
herytage
.
and
to
take
away
the
ryuer
/
wherby
oure
towne
of
Gaunt
shulde
be
distroyed
.
And
also
he
wolde
haue
made
a
castell
at
Donse
agaynst
vs
/
to
bring
vs
in
danger
/
and
to
make
vs
weaker
.
And
I
knowe
well
:
howe
they
in
Bruges
had
promysed
hym
in
tyme
paste
/
tenne
or
.xii.
thousande
frankes
yerely
:
to
haue
to
theym
the
easment
of
the
ryuer
of
Lys.
Therfore
I
counsayle
/
lette
this
good
towne
of
Gaunt
:
sende
to
the
erle
some
sadde
and
discrete
personages
/
to
shewe
hym
boldely
all
these
maters
/
as
well
touchynge
the
burgesse
of
Gaunt
in
prisone
in
Erclo
/
the
whiche
his
baylye
wyll
nat
delyuer
:
as
all
other
maters
/
wherwith
the
good
towne
of
Gaunte
is
nat
content
.
And
also
these
matters
herde
:
than
lette
it
be
shewed
hym
also
.
that
he
nor
his
counsayle
/
thynke
that
we
be
so
dull
or
deed
(
but
that
if
nede
be
/
we
may
if
we
lyst
)
make
resystence
there
agaynst
.
And
so
his
aunswere
ones
herde
.
Than
the
good
towne
of
Gaunte
maye
take
aduyse
/
to
punysshe
the
trespasse
on
them
that
shall
be
founde
culpable
agaynst
them
.
And
whanne
Johan
Lyon
hadde
shewed
all
these
wordes
to
the
people
/
in
the
market
place
:
euery
man
sayd
.
he
saythe
well
.
And
than
went
home
to
their
owne
howses
.
At
these
woordes
thus
spoken
by
John
Lyon
/
Gylbert
Mahewe
was
nat
presente
/
for
he
douted
the
whyte
hattes
:
but
his
brother
Stenuart
was
there
alwayes
▪
he
prophesyed
of
tyme
to
come
.
&
whan
he
was
retourned
to
his
brother
/
he
sayd
.
I
haue
alwayes
sayde
/
and
say
yet
agayne
:
howe
that
John
Lyon
shall
distroy
vs
all
.
Cursed
be
the
hour
that
ye
had
nat
let
me
alone
/
for
&
I
had
slayne
him
/
he
shulde
neuer
haue
ouercome
vs
/
nor
come
soo
lyghtly
vp
.
And
nowe
it
is
nat
in
our
puyssance
/
nor
we
dare
nat
anoy
nor
greue
hym
.
He
is
as
nowe
more
greatter
in
the
towne
than
the
erle
.
Gylbert
answered
/
and
sayde
.
Holde
thy
pease
fole
/
for
whan
I
wyll
/
with
the
erles
puyssance
/
all
the
whyte
hattes
shall
be
cast
downe
.
And
suche
there
be
that
bereth
them
nowe
/
that
here
after
shall
haue
no
nede
of
any
hatte
.
SO
than
there
were
charged
certayne
burgesses
/
to
go
ambassade
to
the
erle
/
of
the
saddest
men
of
the
towne
.
&
Gylbert
Mahewe
was
one
of
them
that
was
chosen
to
go
and
that
caused
Johan
Lyon
/
to
the
entent
that
if
they
spake
any
thynge
contrary
to
the
erles
displeasure
/
that
the
erle
shulde
be
displeased
with
him
/
as
well
as
with
any
other
.
So
they
departed
and
founde
the
erle
at
Male
/
and
dyde
somoche
that
fynally
they
accorded
so
well
/
that
the
erle
graunted
them
all
their
requestes
/
as
touchyng
their
prisoner
at
Erclo
.
And
promysynge
to
kepe
and
mayntayne
the
fraunchesses
of
Gaunt
without
brekyng
of
any
of
them
.
and
defended
them
of
Bruges
that
they
shulde
nat
be
so
hardy
to
dygge
on
the
herytage
of
them
of
Gaunt
.
And
the
better
to
please
them
of
Gaunt
he
commaunded
them
of
Bruges
to
fyll
agayne
the
dykes
that
they
had
made
.
and
so
they
amyably
departed
fro
the
●rle
&
returned
to
Gaunt
/
and
recorded
all
that
they
had
done
with
th
erle
their
lorde
/
and
howe
he
woll
mayntayne
them
in
their
fraunchesses
/
without
brekynge
of
any
of
them
/
Howe beit
he
desyred
them
by
fayrnesse
to
laye
downe
the
whyte
hattes
.
And
with
tho
wordes
the
erles
seruauntes
brought
agayne
the
prisoner
fro
Erclo
/
&
so
yelded
him
agayne
as
by
the
waye
of
restablysshing
/
wherof
they
had
great
ioy
.
At
this
answere
makynge
was
Johan
Lyon
/
and
a
.x.
or
.xii.
of
the
moste
notable
of
his
company
/
and
whan
they
herde
that
the
erle
requyred
/
that
the
whyte
hattes
shulde
be
layd
downe
/
euery
man
held
his
peace
.
Than
Johan
Lyon
spake
/
and
sayd
.
All
ye
good
people
that
be
here
present
/
ye
know
and
haue
sene
but
late
/
howe
the
whyte
hattes
hath
better
kept
your
fraunchesses
/
than
outher
reed
or
blacke
hattes
haue
done
or
of
any
other
colour
.
Be
ye
sure
:
and
say
that
I
sayd
it
/
assoone
as
the
whyte
hattes
be
layde
downe
/
by
the
ordynaunce
that
the
erle
wolde
haue
it
so
/
I
wyll
nat
gyue
for
all
your
fraunchesses
after
nat
thre
pens
.
The
whiche
wordis
blynded
so
the
people
/
that
euery
man
departed
thens
/
and
the
most
parte
went
home
to
their
houses
:
&
sayde
.
Let
them
alone
/
John
Lyon
say
the
trouthe
:
we
haue
nat
sene
in
hym
but
good
and
profitable
for
our
towne
.
So
the
matter
stode
styll
in
the
same
case
.
And
Johan
Lyon
was
than
in
more
feare
of
his
lyfe
than
he
was
before
/
and
imagined
anone
as
it
fell
after
for
he
thought
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
hadde
wrought
some
mater
agaynste
hym
&
his
company
/
in
his
last
voiage
with
the
erle
/
bycause
th
erle
made
so
amyable
an
answere
.
Than
he
thought
to
fynde
some
remedy
/
and
ordayned
and
made
secretely
capitayns
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
as
Senteners
and
Muquateners
/
and
to
them
sayd
.
ss
/
say
vnto
your
company
:
that
they
be
day
and
nyght
purueyed
redy
/
and
assoone
as
they
knowe
or
here
any
mouyng
/
lette
them
come
to
me
/
for
it
were
better
we
slewe
than
to
be
slayne
/
sythe
we
haue
begon
so
farre
.
and
as
he
ordayned
so
it
was
done
euery
man
redy
.
¶
Howe
the
whyte
hattes
slewe
the
bayly
in
the
market
place
/
and
of
the
goodis
and
howses
of
maryners
that
were
distroyed
/
and
of
the
great
brullynge
that
was

in

.
Cap.
CCC

IT
was
nat
long
after
/
but
that
the
baily
of
Gaunt
Roger
Dauterne
came
too
Gaunt
with
a
two
hundred
horse
/
and
ordayned
to
do
as
the
erle
and
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
had
deuysed
.
The
bayly
with
two
hundred
men
that
be
brought
with
hym
/
came
downe
a
longe
the
stretes
with
the
erles
baner
in
his
hande
.
And
whan
he
came
in
to
the
market
place
he
rested
/
and
set
the
baner
before
him
.
Than
anone
drue
to
him
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
brethern
and
the
ruler
of
the
meane
craftis
.
It
was
ordayned
that
his
men
of
armes
shulde
go
to
Johan
Lyons
house
/
and
to
take
him
as
chiefe
ruler
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
and
a
.v.
or
sire
other
of
his
company
/
of
them
that
were
moost
culpable
/
and
they
to
haue
ben
brought
to
the
castell
of
Gaunt
/
and
ther
to
haue
had
their
heedes
stryken
of
.
Johan
Lyon
who
thought
no
lesse
/
and
was
well
aduysed
of
this
dede
/
for
he
had
spyes
and
watchesse
in
euery
corner
of
the
towne
.
He
knewe
well
of
the
comynge
of
the
bayly
(
&
knewe
for
certayne
/
and
so
dyd
all
the
whyte
hattes
)
that
the
same
iourney
was
set
for
them
.
they
all
drewe
togyder
be
tymes
/
and
came
to
Johan
Lyons
howse
/
who
was
redy
in
the
strete
abydyng
for
them
.
So
there
came
.x..
than
.xx.
and
euer
as
they
came
they
fell
in
aray
in
the
strete
/
&
whan
they
were
assembled
to
the
nombre
of
four
hundred
.
Than
John
Lyon
departed
as
fyrse
as
a
lyon
/
and
sayd
.
let
vs
go
on
these
traytours
that
wyll
betray
the
good
towne
of
Gaunt
.
I
thought
well
that
all
the
swete
wordes
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
brought
vs
the
last
daye
fro
the
erle
/
was
but
disceyte
and
distructyon
for
vs
/
but
I
shall
make
them
repent
it
.
Than
he
and
his
company
went
a
great
pase
/
and
alweys
his
nombre
encreased
/
for
there
were
dyuers
that
fell
to
his
company
that
hadde
no
whyte
hattes
/
but
they
●ryed
treason
treason
/
&
came
about
by
a
strayt
lane
in
to
the
market
place
/
where
as
the
●ayly
was
representyng
the
erles
parson
.
And
assoone
as
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
sawe
Johan
Lyon
come
in
to
the
place
/
they
fledde
a
way
as
fast
as
they
myght
/
and
so
dyd
all
other
except
suche
as
the
bayly
brought
with
him
.
As
soone
as
John
Lyon
was
come
in
to
the
place
/
the
capytayne
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
with
a
great
company
with
hym
/
came
to
the
bayly
/
and
with
out
any
wordespekyng
/
they
toke
and
cast
him
to
the
erthe
/
&
slewe
him
there
.
And
than
the
erles
baner
was
cast
downe
to
the
grounde
/
and
torne
all
to
peaces
/
&
they
touched
no
man
there
but
the
bayly
.
And
than
they
came
all
aboute
John
Lyon
.
And
whan
the
erles
men
sawe
the
bayly
deed
/
and
the
erles
baner
all
to
torne
/
they
were
greatly
abasshed
/
and
so
toke
their
horses
and
voyded
out
of
the
towne
.
YE
maye
well
knowe
:
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
/
who
were
enemyes
to
John
Lyon
wer
nat
well
assured
of
them selfe
in
their
owne
houses
/
wherfore
they
departed
as
fast
as
they
myght
/
and
voyded
the
towne
one
after
a nother
/
and
left
behynde
them
wyfꝭ
/
chyldren
/
and
herytages
/
and
went
assoone
as
they
myght
to
the
erle
/
and
shewed
hym
howe
his
bayly
was
slayne
.
Of
the
whiche
tydynges
th
erle
was
sore
displeased
and
gode
cause
why
:
for
they
had
done
hym
great
dispyte
/
and
sayde
and
sware
.
howe
it
shulde
be
greatly
recompensed
or
euer
that
he
returned
agayn
in
to
Gaunt
and
that
they
shuld
neuer
haue
peace
with
him
in
ensample
to
all
other
townes
.
So
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
/
abode
styll
with
the
erle
.
And
Johan
Lyon
/
and
the
whyte
hattes
perseuered
styll
in
their
outrage
.
Roger
Dauterne
was
thus
slayne
/
and
all
other
departed
/
and
that
none
apered
before
the
whyte

to

than
Johan

who
entented
to

false
traytours
the
Mahewes
/
that
wolde
this
day●
distroy
the
fraunchesse
of
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
And
so
they
ran
alonge
the
stretes
to
their
houses
/
but
they
founde
no
body
there
/
for
they
were
departed
.
then
they
were
sought
for
in
lodgynges
/
strete
by
strete
/
and
chambre
by

.
And
whan
Johan
Lyon
harde
howe
none
of
them
coulde
be
founde
/
he
was
sore
displeased
.
Than
he
gaue
all
their
goodis
to
his
company
and
so
all
their
houses
were
pilled
and
robbed
/
so
that
no

was
left
.
as
though
they
had
ben
false
traytours
to
the
towne
/
and
whan
they
had
done
/
they
returned
in

.
And
after
that
there
was
no

and
as
at
that
tyme
they
durst
nat
/
for
the
whyte
hattes
were
so
multiplyed
/
that
none
durste
displease
them
.
they
went
in
the
stretes
by
great
companyes
/
but
there
were
none
that
wolde
mete
with
them
.
It
was
sayd
in
dyuers
places
in
the
towne
and
without
also
/
howe
they
had
some
supportacyon
of
some
officers
/
and
riche
men
in
Gain
the
whiche
was
lykely
to
be
so

for
who
durst

baner
in

/
doyng
his
office

without

bolsterer
or
conforter
in

.
And
after
that
they
multyplyed
/
and
were
so
strong
in
the
towne
that
they
cared
for
no
maner
of
ayde
/
but
of
themself
Ther
were
none
that
durst
displease
them
or
withsay
any
thyng
that
they
wolde
do
.
This
bayly
Roger
Dauterne
was
taken
by
the
freers
and
so
buryed
in
their
churche
.
WHan
this
thynge
was
thus
fortuned
/
dyuers
good
men
/
sage
and
ryche
of
the
towne
of
Gaunt
were
rightsory
/
and
began
to
speke
and
murmure
.
And
sayd
ech
to
other
:
howe
they
had
done
a
great
outrage
/
in
sleyng
thus
th
erles
bayly
/
in
doyng
of
his
offyce
.
And
how
of
right
their
lorde
th
erle
must
nede
be
displeased
with
them
/
and
by
all
likelyhode
neuer
to
haue
rest
nor
pease
with
him
.
&
howe
that
these
vngracyous
people
had
brought
all
the
towne
in
parell
to
be
dystroyed

withoute

Howe
be
it
for

there
were
none
that
durst
fynde
the
meanes
to
correct
or
to
amende
them
/
that
had
done
this
out
rage
.
Johan
de
la
Faucell
who
as
than
was
in
Gaunt
/
a
man
right
sage
and
greatly
renomed
/
sawe
howe
the
mater
was
gone
so
farre
.
&
sawe
howe
outragiously
they
had
slayne
the
bayly
/
he
thought
the
mater
shulde
be
yuell
at
length
.
And
for
the
entent
he
shulde
nat
be
suspect
with
the
erle
nor
with
the
towne
:
he
departed
fro
the
towne
as
priuely
as
he
might
/
And
wente
to
a
fayre
house
that
he
had
without
Gaunt
/
&
there
abode
/
and
fayned
hym selfe
sicke
:
so
that
none
spake
with
hym
but
his
owne
men
.
And
dayly
he
herde
tidynges
out
of
Gaunt
for
he
had
left
behynde
hym
the
moost
parte
of
his
goodes
/
&
his
wyfe
and
his
chyldren
/
styll
in
the
towne
.
Thus
he
dissymuled
for
a
season
.
¶
Howe
.xii.
burgesses
of
Gaunt
were
sent
to
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
and
how
in
the
meane
season
the
white
hattes
pylled
and
brente
/
the
fayre
castell
of
Andrehen

Cap.
CCC

THe
gode
men
in
Gaunt
and
riche
and
notable
marchantes
/
who
hadde
within
the
towne
their
wyues
/
chyldren
/
and
marchandyse
/
and
their
heritages
bothe
within
the
towne
and
without
/
&
had
to
lyue
by
/
right
honourably
without
dangere
.
They
were
nat
well
at
their
ease
in
their
hertes
/
to
se
the
besynesse
in
Gaunt
.
they
knewe
well
they
hadde
sore
forfayted
agaynst
the
erle
their
lorde
/
and
thought
well
howe
he
wolde
ꝓ
dyde
therin
some
remedy
/
and
that
they
shulde
be
fayne
to
make
amendes
of
their
trespasses
/
nowe
●rels
another
tyme
and
they
to
put
them selfe
in
the
erles
mercy
.
Wherfore
they
thought
it
better
to
do
it
be
tymes
/
rather
than
to
late
.
Than
they
toke
counsayle
togyder
/
to
se
howe
they
might
vse
them selfe
/
to
the
profyte
and
honoure
bothe
of
them
and
of
the
towne
.
To
this
counsayle
was
called
Johan
Lyon
/
and
the
capitayns
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
or
elles
they
durst
nat
haue
done
it
.
There
were
many
wordis
and
dyue●s
purposes
deuysed
/
finally
they
were
all
of
one
acorde
that
they
of
the
counsayle
shulde
chose
.xii.
notable
persons
/
and
sende
them
to
the
erle
requyringe
hym
of
mercy
:
for
the
dethe
of
his
bayly
/
whome
they
had
slayne
.
And
so
by
that
meanes
if
they
might
haue
peace
they
wolde
be
gladde
:
so
that
all
myght
be
comprised
in
the
peace
/
and
nothynge
els
demaunded
of
the
erles
parte
.
Than
these
burgesses
were
chosen
that
shulde
go
on
this
viage
/
and
alwayes
Johan
Lyon
sayd
:
it
is
good
to
be
in
fauour
with
our
lorde
and
prince
.
Howbeit
he
wolde
the
contrary
/
and
thought
and
sayde
to
him selfe
/
that
the
mater
was
nat
yet
there
/
as
he
wolde
bring
it
vnto
.
So
these
burgesses
departed
and
went
to
Male
besyde
Bruges
to
the
erle
:
who
at
their
first
comyng
/
made
a
cruell
&
〈…〉
ell
countenance
agaynst
them
of
Gaunt
.
These
.xii.
burgesses
made
a
pytefull
complaynt
before
the
erle
/
and
requyred
hym
/
holdyng
vp
of
all
their
handes
/
that
he
wolde
haue
mercy
on
theym
.
And
excused
them selfe
of
the
dethe
of
the
bayly
/
both
them
of
the
lawe
/
and
the
notable
persons
of
the
towne
and
sayd
.
Right
dere
sir
/
acorde
so
to
vs
:
that
we
maye
bringe
peace
with
vs
to
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
the
whiche
loueth
you
so
well
.
And
sir
/
we
promyse
you
/
that
in
tyme
to
come
/
this
outrage
shal
be
so
greatly
recompensed
on
them
that
hath
done
it
/
and
caused
it
to
be
done
:
so
that
ye
shall
be
content
.
And
that
it
shall
be
to
all
other
townes
ensample
.
These
.xii.
burgesses
made
so
humble
requestes
/
that
the
erle
somwhat
refrayned
his
yre
/
and
by
meanes
of
other
that
was
made
to
hym
:
that
he
acorded
and
ordayned
at
●ycles
of
the
peace
.
And
th
erle
pardoned
all
his
yuell
wyll
that
he
had
agaynst
them
of
Gaunt
/
by
the
amendes
that
shulde
be
made
:
but
than
there
came
to
them
other
newe
tidynges
/
as
I
shall
shewe
you
here
after
.
IOhan
Lyon
who
was
at
Gaunt
/
thought
all
contrary
to
that
he
had
sayde
in
the
counsayle
.
Howe
that
it
was
good
to
be
in
fauoure
with
their
lorde
:
he
knewe
in
certaynte
that
he
hadde
so
moche
trespassed
agaynst
the
erle
/
that
his
peace
shulde
neuer
be
made
with
him
.
And
if
he
had
any
peace
graunted
him
/
he
thought
it
shulde
be
but
dissymulacyon
/
&
that
it
shulde
cost
him
his
lyfe
at
laste
.
So
therfore
he
thought
he
hadde
rather
to
be
shamed
/
than
to
be
in
parell
and
in
aduenture
of
his
lyfe
euery
day
.
I
shall
shewe
you
what
he
dyde
.
Whyle
the
counsayle
of
the
towne
were
with
th
erle
for
peace
/
he
assembled
togyder
all
the
whyte
hattes
and
of
all
the
craftes
in
Gaunte
/
suche
as
were
of
his
accorde
/
and
so
came
to
his
purpose
by
a
subtell
meanes
/
and
than
sayd
to
them
all
.
Sirs
ye
know
well
/
how
we
haue
displeased
our
lorde
th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
and
howe
we
haue
sent
vnto
hym
/
we
knowe
nat
as
yet
what
reporte
they
wyll
bring
outher
peace
or
warr
/
for
the
erle
is
nat
easy
to
be
apeased
.
for
he
hath
about
him
suche
as
wyll
rather
styre
hym
to
displeasure
/
than
to
quyetnesse
/
as
Gylbert
Mahewe
&
his
brethern
.
ther
is
a
hundred
hyndrers
of
the
peace
/
rather
than
one
forderer
therfore
it
were
good
that
we
toke
good
hede
to
our selfe
/
if
we
haue
warre
/
to
knowe
who
shall
ayde
vs
/
and
howe
we
shall
get
vs
loue
among
you
rulers
/
of
suche
a
crafte
and
suche
a
craft
.
Cause
to
morowe
to
come
in
to
the
feldes
as
many
men
as
ye
can
get
/
and
ther
we
shall
se
howe
able
euery
man
is
and
howe
they
be
furnysshed
/
it
is
better
to
be
aduysed
be
tyme
than
to
late
/
this
shall
coste
vs
nothynge
/
and
yet
we
shall
be
the
more
feared
and
drad
.
they
all
answered
/
and
sayd
:
it
is
well
deuysed
/
so
let
it
be
done
.
The
next
day
they
went
out
all
at
Bruges
gate
/
&
so
went
in
to
the
feldes
in
a
fayre
playne
without
Gaunt
/
called
Andre
hen
.
Than
Johan
Lyon
behelde
them
gladly
:
for
they
were
a
.x.
thousande
/
and
all
well
armed
than
he
sayd
beholde
:
here
is
a
goodly
company
▪
and
whan
he
had
ben
there
a
certayne
space
and
hadde
gone
all
aboute
them
/
than
he
sayd
.
Sirs
/
I
counsayle
:
let
vs
go
to
the
erles
place
here
by
/
syth
we
be
so
nere
it
/
for
it
is
shewed
me
howe
he
maketh
there
great
prouisyon
/
it
may
fortune
to
be
great
preiudice
to
oure
towne
of
Gaunt
.
They
all
agreed
therto
/
and
so
came
to
Andrehen
the
whiche
was
as
than
without
any
great
kepynge
or
defence
/
so
they
entred
and
sought
all
about
the
house
/
and
a none
this
vngracious
company
pylled
and
robbed
it
of
all
that
euer
they
founde
there
.
There
was
within
it
moche
ryches
/
for
the
erle
had
made
there
his
warderobe
.
Johan
Lyon
made
semblant
/
as
thoughe
he
had
bene
sore
displeased
/
howe
be
it
that
was
nat
so
as
it
apered
.
for
whan
they
were
departed
fro
the
castell
/
and
come
agayne
in
to
the
felde
they
loked
behynde
them
/
and
sawe
all
the
place
a
fyre
/
and
that
the
fyre
was
more
than
in
xx
.
places
in
the
castell
/
so
that
it
was
nat
in
the
peoples
puyssance
to
quenche
it
/
nor
also
they
had
no
great
wyll
to
do
it
.
Than
Johan
Lyon
as
though
he
had
great
mernayle
(
sayd
)
howe
cometh
yonder
fyre
in
my
lordes
howse
?
And
some
answered
/
and
sayd
.
We
can
nat
tell●
but
by
aduenture
.
well
〈◊〉
he
we
can
nat
than
amend
it
/
it
is
better
that
it
be
brent
by
aduenture
/
rather
than
by
vs
.
And
also
all
thynges
considered
/
it
was
a
perylous
neighbour
to
vs
/
for
my
lorde
might
ther
a
set
suche
a
garyson
/
that
might
haue
done
vs
great
domage
/
if
we
shulde
haue
warr
with
him
.
They
all
answered
/
and
sayd
:
ye
say
trouthe
.
And
so
retourned
in
to
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
and
dyde
no
more
that
day
/
for
they
had
done
yuell
inough
and
to
moche
:
for
it
cost
after
/
mo
than
two
hundred
thousande
mennes
lyues
.
And
it
was
one
of
the
princypall
thyngꝭ
/
wherwith
the
erle
was
moost
displeased
.
And
therfore
Johan
Lyon
dyd
it
/
bycause
he
wolde
haue
no
peace
/
for
he
knewe
well
/
what
soeuer
treatie
were
made
:
he
was
likely
to
lese
his
life
This
castell
of
Andrehen
/
hadde
cost
the
erle
of
Flaunders
the
bylding
therof
/
two
hundred
thousande
frankes
/
and
he
loued
it
best
/
of
all
the
houses
he
had
.
The
good
men
of
Gaunt
/
who
de●yred
to

was
of

right
sorou●ull
/
howbeit
they
coude
nat
am●de

nor
they
durst

For

sayde
:
howe
the

was
brent
by

and
none

.
THese

came
to
the

who
was
atte

and
he
that
brought

This

The

John

on

This
crye
ones
made
:
than
there
was
another
crye
made
for

of
Bruges
/
that
euery

shulde

&
all
these
thynges
to
be
kept
on

.
Than
euery
man
went
to
their
houses
/
and
soo
thus
ryght
amyably
they
of
Gaunt
were
with
them
of
Bruges
two
dayes
.
And
there
they
alyed
and
bounde
them selfe
eche
to
other
surely
.
These
oblygacyous

writen
and
sealed
:
and
on
the
thirde
day
/
they
of
Gaunt
departed
and
went
to
the
towne
of
Dan
/
where
the
gates
were
set
open
against
their
comyng
.
And
there
they
were
curtesly
receyued
/
and
taryed
there
two
dayes
.
Than
sodenly
a
seknesse
toke
John
Lyon
/
wherwith
he
swelled
/
and
the
same
nyght
that
the
syknes
toke
hym
/
he
supped
with
great
reuyll
/
with
the
damosels
of

.
Wherfore
some

:
he
was
ther
poysoned
/
wherof
I
knowe
nothyng
nor
I
wyll
nat
speke
to

but
I
knowe
well
/
the
next
day
that
he
fell
sycke
/
at
nyght
he
was
layed
in
a
lytter
and
caried
to
Ardenburg
he
coude
go
no
farther
/
but
there
dyed
.
wherof
they
of
Gaunte
were
ryght
sorie
/
and
sore
dismayed
.
OF
the
dethe
of
Johan
Lyon
/
all
his
enemyes
were
ryght
gladde
/
&
his
frendes
sory
.
and
so
he
was
brought
to
Gaunt
/
and
bycause
of
his
dethe
all
the
hoost
returned
.
Whan
the
tidyngis
of
his
dethe
came
to
Gaunt
/
all
the
people
were
right
sory
/
for
he
was
well
beloued
:
except
of
suche
as
were
of
the
erles
parte
.
All
the
clergy
came
agaynste
him
/
&
so
brought
him
in
to
the
towne
with
great
solempnyte
/
as
though
it
had
bene
the
erle
of
Flaunders
.
&
so
he
was
buryed
right
honorably
in
the
churche
of
saynt
Nycholas
/
&
there
his
obsequy
was
done
.
yet
for
all
the
deth
of
this
Johan
Lyon
/
the
alyances
and
promyses
made
bytwene
them
of
Gaunt
/
and
of
Bruges
:
brake
nat
/
for
there
were
good
hostages
in
the
towne
/
wherfore
it
helde
.
Of
the
dethe
of
this
John
Lyon
/
the
erle
was
ryght
glad
/
and
so
was
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
/
and
the
rulers
of
the
meane
craftes
in
Gaunt
/
and
all
suche
as
were
of
the
erles
parte
.
Than
the
erle
made
sorer
prouysion
than
he
dyde
before
in
all
his
castelles
and
townes
/
and
he
sent
to
the
towne
of
Ipre
/
a
great
nombre
of
knightes
and
squiers
/
out
of
the
lyberties
of
Lysle
and
Doway
/
and
sayd
.
howe
he
wolde
haue
reason
of
Gaunt
.
And
anone
after
the
dethe
of
Johan
Lyon
/
all
they
of
Gaunte
aduysed
/
howe
they
coulde
nat
be
longe
without
capitayns
.
Than
they
ordayned
of
the
aldarmen
of
the
craftes
/
and
of
the
Synkquateners
of
the
portes
:
four
of
them
/
acordyng
to
their
aduyse
/
moost
hardy
and
cruell
persons
/
of
all
other
.
Fyrst
they
chase
Johan
Drunaur
/
Johan
Boulle
/
Rase
de
Harsell
/
&
Peter
du
Boys
.
And
all
the
other
people
sware
to
mayntayne
and
obey
them
/
as
their
capitayns
/
on
payne
of
their

/
that
dyde
the
contrary
.
and
the
capitayns
sware
agayne
to
kepe
and
maynteyne
the
honour
and
fraunchesses
of
the
towne
.
These
foure
capytayns
styrred
them
of
Gaunt

to
go
to
ypre
and
to
Franke
/
to
haue
obeysance
of

or
els
to

.
So
these
capitayns
and
their
people
departed
fro
Gaunt
/
in
good
array
.
They
were
a
.xii.
thousande
clene
armed
/
and
so
came
to
Courtrey
.
They
of
Courtay
suffred
them
to
entre
in
to
their
towne
without
daunger
/
for
it
parteyned
to
the
fraunches
of
Gaunt
/
and
there
toke
their

two

.
and
the
thirde
day
departed
and
went
to
Ipre
/
and
toke
with

two
hundred
men
of
armes
/
with
the
crosbowes
of
Courtray

and
so
toke

And
whan
they

/
they
rested
&
tooke

and
aduysed
to

them
of

/
and
the
great

to

to
confort
them
/
if
nede

As
it
was
ordayned
so
it
was
done
/
and
so
came
to
ypre
and
whan
they
of
Iperre
/
and
specyally
they
of

of
Gaunt
/
they
armed

and
toke
the
market
place
/
and
they
were
a

thousande
.
So
ther
the
ryche
men
of
the
towne
had
no
puyssance
.
The
knyghtes
that
were
there
in
garyson
set

/
went
ordynatly
to
the
gate
of
Touront
/
where

The

and

The

The

and
said
:

In

There

The

entended
to
prouyde
for
the
towne
of
And

/
both
with

and
good
men
of

.
For
he
supposed
/
that
the
gauntoyse
wolde
come
thyder
and
lay
siege
therto
/
for
he
thought
it
shuld
be
to
him
a
great
domage
/
if
they
were
lordes
of

.
For
therby
they

they

To

.liiii.
THan
at
afternoon
the
assawte
seased
/
for
Rase
of
Harsell
sawe
well
/
how
they
traueyled
in
vayne
/
&
howe
the
within
Teremond
there
were
many
good
and
valyantmen
of
armes
/
wherby
he
parceyued
it
was
nat
easy
to
get
them
/
and
also
his
men
began
to
be
wery
.
Than
he
sowned
the
retrayte
/
and
withdrewe
a
long
the
ryuer
fayre
and
easly
/
and
toke
agayne
their
nauy
/
and
the
next
day
went
agayne
to
Andwarpe
.
The
siege
lay
long
styll
there
/
and
the
flemynges
that
were
there
/
were
lordes
of
the
feldes
/
and
of
the
ryuer
.
so
that
no
prouisyon
coude
entre
in
to
the
towne
/
without
great
parell
/
of
the
syde
towarde
Haynaulte
.
howe
be
it
somtyme
vitaylers
wolde
aduenture
them selfe
for
wynnyng
:
whan
the
hoost
was
a
slepe
/
to
put
them selfe
within
the
bailes
of
Andwarpe
/
and
so
had
in
to
the
towne
.
And
amonge
the
assautes
that
were
made
/
there
was
one
that
endured
a
hole
day
/
and
there
were
made
dyuers
newe
knyghtes
within
the
towne
/
of
Heynalt
/
of
Flaunders
/
and
of
Artoyse
.
and
so
the
newe
knyghtes
came
and
fought
with
the
gauntoyse
at
the
barryers
.
There
was
a
good
scrimysshe
and
many
a
feate
of
armes
doone
/
and
dyuers
flemynges
slayne
and
hurte
/
but
they
made
lytell
therof
/
for
lytell
they
feared
the
dethe
/
wherby
they
aduentured
them selfe
the
more
largely
.
for
whan
they
that
were
before
were
slayne
&
hurte
/
they
that
folowed
wolde
pull
them
backe
/
and
sette
themselfe
before
&
shewed
hardy
visage
.
Thus
contynued
that
assaut
/
whiche
endured
tyll
it
was
nere
nyght
.
Than
they
of
Andwarpe
retourned
in
to
their
towne
/
and
closed
their
gates
and
barryers
/
and
than
buryed
them
that
were
dedde
/
and
dressed
busely
them
that
were
hurte
.
THe
flemynges
that
lay
thus
at
siege
before
Andwarpe
/
trusted
by
their
sege
to
conquere
the
towne
/
and
them
that
were
within
by
famyne
or
assaut
.
for
they
knewe
well
their
siege
lay
so
rounde
about
/
that
nothynge
coude
come
in
to
the
towne
/
nother

nor

.
and
the
longe
lyeng
there
coulde
nat
greue
them
moche
/
bycause
they
were
in
their
owne
countrey
/
and
nere
to
their
owne
houses
/
wherfore
they
lacked
nothyng
that
was
nedefull
for

/
for
they
hadde
vitayle
/
and
euery
thynge
there
largely
/
&
at
a
better
price
/
than
they
shuld
haue
had

/
or

.
The

/
who
sawe

was
in
the
towne
a
great
nombre
of
knyghtes
and
squiers
/
douted
greatly
of
one
poynt
/
and
that
was
/
lest
by
long
sege
they
shulde
be
famysshed
within
.
wherfore
he
wolde
gladly
that
ther
had
ben
some
honourable

for
him
/
for

thus
with

greued
him
greatly

it
was
neuer

And
also
the

hys

Margarete
/
countesse

was
ryght
sory
to

it
.
And
blamed
the
erle
therfore
/
and
toke
moche
payne
to
appease
it
.
This
countesse
lay
in
the
cytie
of
Arras
.
Than
she
wrote
all
the
mater
to
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
to
whome
the
herytage
of
Flaunders
shulde
fall
after
the
dethe
of
th

/
by
reason
of
the

Margaret

.
The
duke
who
was
well
informed
of
all
the

/
for
euery

he
harde
tidynges
.
He
went
to

The

was
glad
to

and
shewed
the

right
sagely
all

sayeng
/
howe
it
greatly
displeased

and
ought
to
displease
euery

.
And
howe
that
a

nombre
of
honourable
men
were
within
the
towne
of

in

ꝑell
:
desiryng

:
He

Than

and
went
to

where
he
was
receyued
with

on
the

the

The

of
Burgoyne
sent
the
abbot
of

Martens
to
the

before
Andwarpe
/
to
knowe
if
the

.
The
abbot
brought
worde
a
gayne

the
duke
of
Burgoyn

that
for
his

they
wolde
be
content

And
so
the

IOhan

/
he
went

and
ther

&
than
Johan
Prunaux
returned
to

and
shewed
howe
he
had
spedde
.
The

of
Burgoyne
had
so
sore
desyred
them
of
Gaunt
/
and
shewed
so
swete
wordes
to
them
/
that
they
were
content
to
kepe
the
peace
ferme
and
stable
/
bytwene
them
and
And
warpe
.
For
at
the
reysyng
of
the
sege
/
the
gauntoyse
wolde
haue
had
two
gates
of
/
the
towne
beaten
downe
/
and
the
walles
bytwene
/
bycause
it
shulde
alwayes
be
open

to

.
And
whan
the

had
ben

certayne
space
at
Lysle
/
and
that
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
was
gone
in
to
Fraunce
.
Than
he
went
to
the
towne
of
Bruges
and
there
taryed
a
longe
season
after
/
&
shewed
couertlye
great
displeasure
to
certayn
burgesses
of
the
towne
/
but
he
made
none
other
prouisyon
among
them
.
his
displeasure
was
bycause
they
hadde
so
soone
forsaken
him
/
and
turned
to
the
seruyce
of
them
of
Gaunt
.
The
burgesses
excused
them
/
as
trouthe
was
/
that
it
was
nothyng
in
their
faute
/
but
the
faut
was
in

who
wolde
nedes
be
alyed
to
them
of
Gaunt
/
whan
John
Lyon
came

So
the
erle
passed
his
displeasure
aswell
as
he
myght
/
howe
be

he
thought
neuer
the

.
¶
Nowe

¶
The

And

:
what

That

And

So
that
whan

/
than
Charles
his

as
emperoure
:
wrote
hym selfe
kyng
of
Almayne
/
of
Boesme
/
and
kynge
of
the

.
THe
same
season
ther
was
great
counsaile
in
Englande
/
amonge
the
kynges
vncles
/
and
the
prelates
and

of

And
th

who

But
the

wolde

The

Than

And
to

aduyse
euery
man
was
agreed

Than

/
was

And

necessarie
for

and
than
he
departed
and
arryued

The

the

but
agaynst

the

and
whyder
they

they
were

The
wynde
was
so
sore
and
streynable
/
that
they
coulde
caste
none

nor
also
they
durst

In
the
mornyng
the

:
and

For

and
the

Howebeit

they

And

they
retourned

and
went
backe
agayne
to
the
kynge
and
his

and
recounted
all
their

/
wenyng
to
them
that

How
be
it
that

nat
so
/
for
he
was
gone
sicke

London
.
Thus
brake
vp
that
iorney
/
wherby
the
duke
of
Bretayne
coude
haue
no

of

englysshemen
/
whiche

For
all
that

and
the

the
frenchmen
made

and
the
bretons

As

toke

/
by

And
so
the
towne
was
pylled
and
robbed
/
and
was
kept
agaynst
the

a
long
season
after
.
¶
Nowe
lette
vs
retourne
to
the
busynesse
of
Flaunders
.
WHan
the
peace
was
agreed
bitwene
the
erle
of
Flaunders
and
them
of
Gaunt
/
by
the
meanes
of
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
wherby
he
gat
him selfe
moche
thanke
in
the
countre
.
The
entent
and
pleasure
of
them
of
Gaunt
was
/
to
haue
their
lorde
th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
to
dwell
with
them
in
Gaunt
/
and
there
to
kepe
his
householde
.
The
erle
also
was
counsayled
by
the
prouost
of
Hardebeque
/
and
of
them
that
were
nexte
about
hym
to
do
so
/
wherby
he
shulde
norisshe
great
loue
/
bytwene
hym
and
them
of
Gaunt
.
The
erle
laye
styll
at
Bruges
and
came
nat
to
Gaunt
/
wherof
they
had
great
marueyle
/
and
specially
the
good
and
rychmen
of
Gaunt
/
and
suche
as
were
sage
and
wyse
:
for
they
desyred
nothyng
but
peace
.
But
the
palyerdes
&
white
hattes
/
and
suche
as
desyred
rather
stryfe
and
debate
/
they
cared
nothyng
for
the
erles
comynge
.
For
they
knewe
well
that
yf
he
came
/
they
shulde
priuely
be
corrected
at
laste
/
for
the
yuell
dedes
that
they
had
done
.
Nat
withstandynge
that
they
were
in
this
doubte
/
yet
they
that
had
the
gouernyng
of
the
lawe
/
the
counsaylers
and
good
men
of
the
towne
/
wolde
for
any
thynge
/
that
he
shulde
come
thyder
/
and
that
they
shuld
go
and
requyre
him
so
to
do
.
For
they
thought
they
had
no
ferme
peace
/
without
the
erle
came
thyder
.
And
so
ther
was
ordayned
.xxiiii.
men
to
go
to
Bruges
:
to
shewe
to
the
erle
the
great
affection
that
they
had
to
haue
him
.
and
so
they
departed
honorably
/
as
it
aparteyned
for
them
the
shulde
go
for
their
lorde
:
and
it
was
sayd
to
them
by
them
of
the
towne
.
Sirs
/
retourne
neuer
agayne
to
Gaunt
/
without
ye
bring
th
erle
with
you
:
for
if
ye
do
/
ye
shall
fynde
the
gates
closed
agaynst
you
.
Thus
these
burgesses
of
Gaunt
rode
forthe
towarde
Brugis
/
and
bytwene
Bruges
and
Donsay
/
they
herde
say
:
howe
the
erle
was
comynge
to
Gauute
warde
/
wherof
they
were
right
ioyouse
.
And
they
hadde
nat
ryden
past
a
leage
farther
/
but
that
they
mette
the
erle
in
the
feldes
.
Than
the
burgesses
stode
styll
on
bothe
sydes
of
the
waye
/
and
so
the
erle
and
all
his
company
passed
through
them
.
As
he
passed
by
/
the
burgesses
enclyned
them selfe
ryght
lowe
and
humbly
/
and
made
great
reuerence
to
the
erle
.
The
erle
rode
through
them
/
without
any
great
regardyng
of
them
/
but
a
lytell
putte
his
hande
to
his
hat
/
nor
all
they
way
/
he
made
to
theym
no
semblant
.
So
the
erle
rode
on
the
one
syde
/
and
the
gauntoise
on
the
other
/
tyll
they
came
to
Donse
/
and
there
they
rested
:
for
the
erle
dyde
dyne
there
.
And
the
gauntoyse
wente
to
other
lodgynges
and
dyned
also
.
ANd
after
dyner
/
the
gauntoyse
in
good
array
/
came
to
the
erle
&
kneled
aldowne
before
him
/
for
th
erle
sat
.
And
there
they
presented
ryght
humbly
/
the
affection
and
seruyce
of
them
of
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
and
shewed
hym
howe
by
great
loue

Gaunt
/
who
desyred
so
moche

And

at

were
but
a

for

/
without

The
erle
/
who
right
well
herde
these
wordes
/
helde
his

a
certayne
space
.
And
at
last
whan
he
spake
:
he
sayd
fayre
and
softely
.
Sirs

and

They

banysshed
and
chased

and

Enforced

and
brought

And

A

But

ought
to
be
beloued
feared
/
serued
&
honoured
of
his
men
:
and
howe
they
had
done
the
contrary
.
Also
he
shewed
/
howe
he
hath
kepte
and
defended
them
agaynst
all
men
:
and
howe
he
had
kept
them
in
peace
/
profyte
/
and
prosperyte
/
in
the
passages
of
the
see
/
the
whiche
was
closed
fro
them
.
At
his
first
entrynge
in
to
his
lande
/
he
shewed
them
dyuers
reasonable
poyntes
/
whiche
the
wyse
men
vnderstode
and
conceyued
it
clerely
/
how
all
that
euer
he
sayde
was
trouthe
.
Dyuers
gaue
good
care
to
hym
and
some
neuer
a
whytte
/
suche
as
hadde
rather
haue
warre
than
peace
.
And
whan
he
hadde
been
there
the
space
of
one
hour
/
and
had
shewed
them
all
this
and
more
.
Than
finally
he
sayde
:
howe
he
wolde
be
their
good
lorde
/
in
lyke
maner
as
he
hadde
been
in
tyme
past
.
And
pardoned
them
of
all
the
iniuryes
/
hates
/
and
yuell
wylles
/
that
he
hadde
agaynst
them
:
and
all
that
they
hadde
done
.
He
wolde
here
no
more
therof
/
and
to
kepe
them
in
their
rightes
and
seignories
/
as
in
tyme
paste
had
ben
vsed
.
Howe
be
it
he
desyred
them
/
that
they
shulde
begyn
no
newe
thyng
nor
custome
/
and
that
the
whyte
hattes
shulde
be
layd
downe
.
At
all
these
wordes
that
he
spake
before
/
euery
man
helde
their
peace
/
but
whan
he
spake
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
ther
was
suche
a
murmurynge
and
why
sperynge
/
that
it
might
well
be
parceyued
/
that
it
was
for
that
cause
.
Than
th
erle
desyred
theym
swetely
/
euery
man
to
drawe
to
their
owne
houses
.
And
soo
euery
man
departed
out
of
the
place
/
but
the
whyte
hattes
were
the
first
that
came
thyder
/
and
the
laste
that
taryed
.
And
whan
the
erle
passed
by
them
they
smyled
/
and
folisshely
behelde
hym
/
and
they
made
no
reuerence
to
hym
/
wherof
the
erle
was
sore
displeased
in
his
mynde
/
and
sayd
to
his
knightes
/
whan
he
came
to
his
lodgynge
.
I
trowe
I
shall
neuer
come
easely
to
myne
entent
/
against
these
whyte
hattes
/
they
are
vnhappye
people
.
My
hert
gyueth
me
/
that
the
mater
wyll
nat
rest
longe
in
the
case
that
it
is
nowe
in
.
For
as
ferr
as
I
canne
parceyue
/
they
are
likely
to
do
many
yuell
dedes
:
for
though
I
shulde
lese
all
/
I
canne
nat
suffre
theym
in
their
pride
and
yuell
doynges
.
THus
th
erle
of
Flaunders
was
there
a
foure
or
fyue
dayes
/
and
than
departed
/
so
that
he
retourned
no
more
thyder
agayne
.
&
so
went
to
Lysse
/
and
ther
ordayned
to
lye
all
the
wynter
.
At
his
departyng
fro
Gaunt
/
he
toke
leaue
of
no
man
:
but
departed
in
displeasure
/
wherwith
dyuers
of
the
towne
were
right
yuell
content
/
and
sayde
.
Howe
they
sholde
neuer
haue
any
good
of
hym
/
nor
he
wolde
neuer
loue
them
/
nor
they
him
.
And
howe
he
was
departed
fro
them
at
that
tyme
/
as
he
had
done
in
tyme
past
.
And
that
Gylbert
Mahewe
and
his
bretherne
/
had
counsayled
him
so
to
do
.
Seyng
he
was
departed
so
sodaynlye
fro
Gaunt
.
Johan
Prunaur
/
Rase
Harsell
/
Peter
de
Boyse
/
Johan
Boule
/
and
the
yuell
capitayns
/
were
ryght
ioyouse
of
his
departyng
:
and
sowed
lewde
wordis
about
in
the
towne
.
Sayeng
/
howe
that
or
somer
come
th
erle
and
his
men
wyll
breke
the
peace
.
Wherfore
they
sayd
:
it
were
good
that
euery
man
toke
hede
to
hym selfe
/
and
that
they
prouyde
for
the
towne
/
corne
and
other
vitayls
:
as
●esshe
and
salte
/
and
suche
other
thynges
.
Sayeng
howe
they
coulde
se
no
suretie
in
the
erle
.
So
they
of
Gaunt
made
prouision
of
dyuers
thynges
that
was
necessarie
for
them
and
for
the
towne
.
Wherof
the
erle
was
enfourmed
/
and
had
great
marueyle
/
wherfore
they
douted
them selfe
in
suche
wyse
.
To
say
trouthe
/
all
thynges
consydred
:
in
that
I
say
or
haue
sayd
before
.
It
may
be
marueyled
:
howe
they
of
Gaunt
dissymuled
them selfe
/
so
at
the
begynninge
as
they
dyde
.
The
riche
/
sage
/
and
notable
persons
of
the
towne
:
can
nat
excuse
them selfe
of
these
dedes
at
the
begynnyng
.
For
whan
Johan
Lyon
beganne
to
bring
vp
first
the
white
hattes
/
they
might
well
haue
caused
them
to
haue
been
layed
downe
/
if
they
had
lyst
.
And
haue
sent
other
maner
of
persons
agaynst
the
pioners
of
Bruges
/
than
they
but
they
suffred
it
/
bycause
they
wolde
nat
medell
/
nor
be
in
no
busynesse
nor
prease
.
All
this
they
dyde
and
consented
to
be
done
/
the
whiche
after
they
derely
bought
/
and
specially
suche
as
were
riche
and
wyse
.
For
afterward
they
were
no
more
lordes
of
them selfe
/
nor
they
durst
nat
speke
nor
do
nothynge
/
but
as
they
of
Gaunte
wolde
.
For
they
sayd
:
the
nother
for
John
Lyon
nor
for
Gylbert
Mahewe
/
nor
for
their
warres
or
enuyes
/
they
wolde
neuer
departe
a sondre
.
For
whatsoeuer
warre
ther
were
bytwene
one
or
other
/
they
wolde
be
euer
all
one
:
and
euerredy
to
defende
the
fraunchesses
of
their
towne
the
whiche
was
well
sene
after
:
for
they
made
warre
/
whiche
endured
seuyn
yere
.
In
the
whiche
tyme
there
was
neuer
stryfe
amonge
them
in
the
towne
.
And
that
was
the
thynge
that
sustayned
and
kept
them
moost
of
any
thyng
/
bothe
within
and
without
.
They
were
in
suche
vnyte
/
that
there
was
no
dystaunce
amonge
them
:
as
ye
shall
herafter
in
this
hystorie
.
IT
was
nat
long
after
/
that
th
erle
of
Flaunders
was
departed
fro
Gaunt
and
returned
to
Lyle
.
but
that
sir
Olyuer
Dauterne
/
cosyn
germayne
to
Roger
Dauterne
/
slayne
before
in
Gaunt
.
Sent
his
defyance
to
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
for
the
dethe
of
his
cosyn
:
and
in
lykewise
so
dyde
sir
Philyppe
of
Mamynes
/
and
dyuers
other
.
And
after
their
defyances
made
:
they
founde
a
fourtie
shyppes
/
and
the
maryners
to
them
parteyninge
/
of
the
burgesses
of
Gaunt
/
who
were
comyng
on
the
ryuer
of
Lescaulte
/
charged
with
corne
.
and
ther
they
reuenged
them
of
the
dethe
of
their
cosyn
/
on
these
shyppes
and
maryners
.
For
they
all
to
hewed
the
maryners
/
and
dyde
putte
out
their
eyen
:
and
so
sent
theym
to
Gaunt
/
maymed
as
they
were
/
whiche
dispyte
/
they
of
Gaunt
toke
for
a
great
iniury
.
The
lerned
men
of
Gaunt
/
to
whome
the
complayntes
came
/
were
right
sore
displesed
/
and
wyst
nat
well
what
to
say
.
Great
murmuryng
was
in
the
towne
/
and
the
moost
parte
of
the
people
of
Gaunt
/
sayd
:
howe
th
erle
of
Flaunders
had
caused
all
.
so
that
ther
durst
no
manne
excuse
hym
.
And
assoone
as
Johan
Prunax
herde
these
tidynges
/
who
was
as
than
capitayn
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
without
any
worde
spekyng
to
them
of
the
lawe
.
I
can
nat
say
:
whyder
he
spake
with
the
capitayns
of
other
companyons
or
nat
.
I
thynke
rather
ye
than
nay
.
So
he
toke
the
most
parte
of
the
whyte
hattes
/
and
dyuers
other
folowers
/
redy
inoughe
to
do
yuell
:
and
so
departed
fro
Gaunt
and
came
so
daynly
to
And
warpe
.
Whan
he
entred
first
/
there
was
no
watche
nor
kepers
/
for
they
feared
no
man
.
And
so
he
and
his
company
entred
in
at
the
gate
to
the
nombre
of
fyue
thousande
and
mo
.
And
the
next
mornynge
/
he
sette
warkemen
a
warke
carpentars
and
masons
/
suche
as
were
ther
redy
with
hym
/
to
do
his
commaundement
.
And
so
he
ceassed
nat
/
tyll
he
had
beaten
downe
two
of
the
gates
/
and
the
walles
and
towres
bytwene
them
/
and
layde
them
vp
so
downe
/
in
the
dykes
towarde
Gaunt
.
HOwe
may
they
of
Gaunt
excuse
them selfe
that
thus
consented
to
this
dede●
for
they
were
at
And
warpe
/
beatynge
downe
these
walles
&
gates
more
than
a
moneth
.
If
they
had
sent
for
these
men
to
haue
come
backe
agayne
/
whan
they
herde
of
it
first
/
than
they
might
well
haue
been
excused
but
they
dyde
nat
so
.
They
wynked
rather
with
their
eyen
/
and
suffered
it
/
tyll
tidynges
came
to
the
erle
/
who
lay
at
Lysle
/
howe
John
Prunaur
had
by
stelthe
come
in
to
Andwarpe
and
beten
downe
two
of
the
gates
with
the
walles
and
towres
.
Of
whiche
tydinges
the
erle
was
sore
displesed
/
and
also
he
had
good
cawse
so
to
be
/
and
sayd
.
A
these
vnhappy
cursed
people
the
deuyll
I
trowe
is
with
them
.
I
shall
neuer
be
in
ioye
as
long
as
they
of
Gaunt
haue
any
puissance
.
Than
he
sent
to
Gaunt
some
of
his
counsayle
/
shewynge
them
the
great
outrage
that
they
hadde
done
/
and
howe
they
were
no
people
to
be
beleued
in
makyng
any
peace
.
seyng
that
the
peace
/
whiche
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
had
made
to
his
great
labour
and
payne
/
was
nowe
thus
broken
by
them
.
The
mayre
and
lerned
men
of
Gaunt
excused
them selfe
/
and
sayd
.
that
sauynge
the
erles
displeasure
/
they
neuer
thought
to
breke
the
peace
/
nor
neuer
had
wyll
therto
.
For
though
Johan
Prunaur
had
done
that
outrage
of
him selfe
/
the
towne
of
Gaunt
wyll
in
no
wyse
auowe
/
suffer
/
nor
sustayne
it
.
And
so
playnely
and
truely
excused
them selfe
/
and
sayd
moreouer
.
howe
the
erle
had
consented
therto
/
for
they
be
issued
out
of
his
house
/
suche
as
haue
done
this
great
outrage
/
slayne
&
maymed
our
burgesses
/
the
whiche
is
a
great
inconuenience
to
the
hole
body
of
the
towne
.
Howe
say
ye
sirs
/
to
this
〈◊〉
they
?
Than
th
erles
comissaryes
replyed
/
and
sayd
.
sirs
:
than
I
se
well
ye
be
reuenged
.
Nay
nat
so
qd
they
of
the
towne
/
for
though
that
Johan
Prunaur
haue
done
thus
at
Andwarpe
/
that
it
is
done
for
any
reuengyng
.
We
say
nat
so
/
for
by
the
treaty
of
the
peace
/
we
maye
proue
and
shewe
/
if
we
lyst

And
that
we
take
recorde
of
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
that
we
myght
haue
done
with
Andwarpe
/
and
haue
brought
it
in
to
the

that
it
is
nowe
at

but
at
the
desyre
of
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
we
to
ware
and
suffred
it
vndone
as
at
the
tyme

Than
the
erles
comyssaries
sayde
.
It
apereth
well
by
your
wordes
/
that
ye
haue
caused
it
to
be
done
:
and
that
ye
canne
nat
excuse
your selfe
therin
.
Sithe
that
ye
knewe
that
Johan
Prunar
was
gone
to
Andwarpe
/
with
an
armye
of
men
of
warr
:
and
by
stelth
vnder
the
shadowe
of
peace
/
hath
beaten
downe
the
gates
and
walles
therof
.
ye
shulde
haue
gone
before

and
haue
defended
them
fro

〈…〉
ll

shewed
your

to
〈…〉
.
And
of
the
hurtyng
and
mayminge
of
your
burgesses
of
Gaunt
/
ye
shulde
therin
haue
gone
to
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
who
made
the
peace
/
and
haue
shewed
him
all
your

〈◊〉
than
ye
had
amended
youre

but
ye
haue
nat

Nowe

I
ensure
you
one
day
he
wyll
take
so
cruell
vengeance
on
you
that
all
the
worlde
shall
speke
therof
.
So
the
erles
comyssaries
departed
fro
them
of
Gaunt
/
&
went
by
Cortray
to
Lyle
/
and
shewed
to
th
erle
what
they
had
done
:
and
thexcusacyons
that

Cap.
CCC
.lviii.
THe
hearyng
spekynge
of
the
treatynge
of
this
processe
/
may
well
be
marueyled
/
for
the
marueylous
mater
therin
.
Some
gyueth
the
right
of
the
warre
/
the
whiche
was
at
that
tyme
/
great
and
cruell
in
Flaunders
:
to
them
of
Gaunt
.
Sayeng
/
howe
they
had
a
good
and
a
iust
cause
to
make
warre
:
but
I
can
nat
se
that
/
as
yet
.
For
I
coude
neuer
se
nor
vnderstande
/
but
that
the
erle
loued
euer
peace
rather
than
warre
.
Reseruyng
alwayes
/
his
highnesse
&
honour
.
Dyde
he
nat
at
their
desyre
/
delyuer
their
burges
out
of
his
prison
of
Erclo
?
and
yet
for
all
that
they
slewe
his
bayly
:
and
than
he
agayne
pardoned
them
that
great
outrage
/
to
th
entent
to
haue
kept
them
in
peace
.
And
ouerthat
agayne
:
on
a
day
/
they
moued
all
the
countrey
of
Flaunders
agaynst
him
/
and
slewe
in
the
towne
of
Ipre
/
fyue
of
his
knightes
.
And
went
and
assayled
and
beseged
And
warpe
/
and
dyde
their
payne
/
to
haue
dystroyed
it
.
and
yet
agayne
they
had
of
the
erle
peace
:
but
for
all
that
/
they
wolde
make
none
amendes
/
for
the
dethe
of
Roger
Dauterne
/
the
whiche
his
lynage
often
tymes
desyred
.
Wherfore
they
somwhat
reuenged
the
dethe
of
their
cosyn
/
on
a
certayne
maryners
:
by
whome
all
this
warr
and
myschefe
was
begon
.
Was
this
yet
any
resonable
cause
/
why
they
shulde
beate
downe
the
walles
of
Andwarpe
?
I
thynke
and

and
so
by
the
reason
of

bothe

apeased
.
So
Johan
Prunaux
forsoke
the

went
to
Athe
in

and
there
dwelled
.
and

The

they
made

For

thus
in

they

Johan

In

WHan
the
gauntoyse
sawe
them selfe
thus
mocked
and
warred
by
the
gentlemen
of
Flaunders
/
they
were
right
angry
therwith
/
&
thought
to
haue
sente
to
erle
Aubert
erle
of
Haynault
/
desirynge
him
to
haue
founde
the
meanes
/
to
haue
caused
these
gentylmen
/
to
leaue
their
warre
a
gaynst
them
▪
but
whan
they
had
all
thynges
consydered
/
they
thought
they
shulde
lese
their
payne
/
for
they
were
sure
the
erle
Aubert
/
wolde
do
no
thynge
for
them
/
nor
they
wolde
nat
dysplease
him
/
nor
put
a
thynge
to
hym
/
that
shulde
be
to
his
displeasure
.
For
they
might
yuell
lyue
with
out
the
fauoure
of
his
countrey
/
for
if
Holand
/
zelande
/
and
Haynault
had
ben
closed
fro
them
they
thought
them selfe
but
lost
.
Therfore
they
left
that
purpose
and
toke
a nother
counsayle
/
and
that
was
/
to
send
to
the
knyghtes
and
squiers
of
Haynalt
/
suche
as
had
herytages
/
rentes
/
or
reuenues
in
Gaunt
or
in
the
precynct
therof
/
that
they
shulde
come
and
serue
theym
/
or
els
to
lese
their
rentes
and
reuenues
there
.
and
so
they
sent
to
them
/
but
it
auayled
them
but
lytell
/
for
they
set
but
lytell
by
their
commaundementes
.
Than
they
of
Gaunt
sent
to
the
lorde
Dautoyng
and
to
sir
Herne
/
who
was
an
heryter
in
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
and
constable
of
the
same
/
that
they
shulde
come
and
serue
them
/
or
els
to
lese
suche
ryght
as
they
had
there
.
and
bycause
they
came
nat
nor
wolde
come
/
they
bete
downe
their
houses
.
The
lorde
Dautoyng
sent
them
worde
howe
he
wolde
come
and
serue
them
at
their
cost
and
charge
to
their
distruccyon
/
and
that
they
shulde
haue
no
nother
trust
in
him
/
but
that
he
wolde
be
their
ennemy
/
and
holde
nothynge
of
theym
/
but
of
the
erle
of
Flaunders
his
lorde
/
to
whome
he
owed
seruyce
and
obeysance
.
The
lorde
Dautoyng
helde
well
his
promyse
/
for
he
made
mortall
warre
agaynst
them
/
and
dyde
them
great
domage
/
and
made
great
prouisyon
in
his
castell
/
whiche
garyson
dyde
moche
traueyle
to
them
of
Gaunt
.
Also
the
lorde
of
Daughen
/
who
was
a
yonge
squier
called
Gaultyer
/
he
dyd
also
great
dispyte
to
them
of
Gaunt
.
Thus
contynued
styll
the
warre
/
and
the
gauntoyse
durst
nat
issue
out
of
their
towne
/
without
they
were
in
great
companyes
/
and
whan
they
founde
any
of
their
enemyes
they
hadde
no
mercy
/
but
hauyng
the
better
slewe
all
before
them
.
Thus
began
the
warre
to
be
ryght
cruell
bytwene
the
erle
of
Flaunders
and
the
gauntoise
/
the
whiche
cost
after
a
hundred
thousande
mennes
lyues
/
twise
tolde
.
it
was
great
payne
to
fynde
outher
ende
or
peace
/
for
the
capitayns
of
Gaunt
knewe
well
they
had
so
trespassed
agaynst
their
lorde
/
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
and
agaynst
the
duke
of
Burgoyn
/
that
for
any
treatie
of
peace
sealyng
or
sweryng
what
soeuer
it
were
.
yet
they
thought
they
shulde
neuer
haue
peace
/
but
that
it
shulde
cost
them
their
lyues
.
This
dought
and
feare
caused
them
to
be
of
that
opinyon
/
and
to
kepe
styll
the
warre
agaynst
the
erle
and
the
gentylmen
of
Flaunders
.
&
also
this
feare
gaue
them
courage
to
kepe
warre
/
and
as
their
aduentures
fell
/
ye
shall
here
after
in
the
story
.
THe
erle
of
Flaunders
beyng
at
L●●e
harde
dayly
newes
fro
the
them
of
Gaunt
/
and
howe
they
brent
and
beate
downe
gentylmens
howses
/
wherwith
he
was
sore
displeased
/
and
sayd
.
howe
he
wolde
take
suche
vengeance
on
them
/
that
he
wolde
bryng
all
Gaunt
vnder
flame
of
fyre
/
and
the
rebelles
within
it
.
Than
the
erle
to
be
the
more
stronger
agaynst
them
/
sent
for
all
his
barons
of
Flaunders
/
and
abandoned
his
countrey
/
to
them
to
resyte
agaynste
the
whyte
hattes
/
and
apoynted
two
gentylmen
to
be
their
captayns
/
that
is
to
say
:
the
Galoys
of
Mamynes
/
and
Peter
Destreueles
.
These
two
with
their
companies
bare
with
them
the
erles
baner
/
and
so
about
a
thre
wekes
they
lay
bytwene
And
warpe
and
Courtrey
/
on
the
ryuer
of
Lys
/
and
dyde
great
domage
to
them
of
Gaunt
.
And
whan
Rase
of
Harsell
herde
therof
/
he
yssued
oute
of
Gaunte
with
all
the
whyte
hattes
and
came
to
Douse
/
and
there
he
hadde
thought
to
haue
founde
the
erles
company
/
but
the
men
of
armes
/
whan
they
knewe
of
the
gauntoyse
comyng
/
they
withdrewe
towarde
Tourney
/
and
so
taryed
in
the
towne
.
And
the
gauntoyse
lay
a
great
season
about
Orches
/
Danne
/
and
Uorlam
/
so
that
the
marchantes
durst
nat
go
bytwene
Doway
and
Tourney
for
feare
of
them
.
And
it
was
than
sayd
:
howe
the
gauntoise
wolde
go
and
lay
siege
to
Lyle
/
and
th
erle
with
in
the
towne
.
They
alyed
them selfe
with
them
of
Bruges
and
Ipre
/
and
they
had
Grantmont
and
Courtray
of
their
acorde
.
But
Brugis
and
Ipre
varyed
and
were
nat
agreed
with
the
craftes
/
for
they
sayde
:
it
shulde
be
a
great
folly
for
them
/
to

siege
so
farre
of
as
Lysle
.
and
how
that
the
erle
might
haue
great
alyaunce
&
ayde
of
the
frenche
kyng
/
as
he
hath
had
before

these

the
good

for

in

.
And
for

no
helpe
nor
ayde
of
the
frenche

/
nor
of
the

They
sent

desyring

that
he
shulde
gyue
no

For
they
wolde
nothing

Wherfore
they
sayde

their

so
to

And
all
that
euer

.
The

without

In

so
dyd
the

of
Flaunders
was
their

yet
he

Bretayne
whome
he
kepte
with
hym
in
his

Wherfore
they
tooke
no

No

for
he
sayd
that

bycause
he

THe
same
season
the

/
sir

Who

The

gaue
many
sore
assautes

/
and
sware
:
that
he
wolde
neuer

/
tyll
he

.
But
than
a
great
sickenesse
tooke

/
and
so
lay
in
his
bedde
:
but
for
all
that
the
siege
brake
nat
vp
/
for
his
men
were
more
angrye
than
they
were

.
Of
this
sickenesse
sir

dyed
/
whiche
was
great
domage
to
his
frendes
and
to
the
realme
of
Fraunce

and
he
was

and
ther
he
was
one
night
/
and
fro
●hens
he
was
caryed
to

Denyse
in

and
there
he
was
layde

whiche
the
kynge
had

and
so
he

And
there
his

And
there
was
all

of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
Thus
by
the
dethe
of
sir
Bertram
of
Clesquy
/
the
office
of
the
constable
shyppe
of
Fraunce
was
voyde

Than
it

There
were
named
dyuers
great
barons
of
Fraunce

and
specially
the

The

And

He
helde

who
had

The

Howe
sir

The

The

they

And
there
rested

toke
counsayle
what

/
as
the
e●●e
hymselfe
and

Therfore
it
was
resonable

knewe
the

shulde
haue
suche
rule

Threwe
it
was

that
whan

had
ben

they
had
euer
suche

sware
euer
to
the
kyng
of

two

The
one
was
:
that
they
shulde
neuer
disclose
their

〈◊〉
person
lyueng
but
among
themselfe
/
〈◊〉
der
they
entended
to
go

The
seconde
thyng
was
:
they
sware
and
promysed
to
make
no
maner
of
treatie
with
their
enemyes
without
the
knowledge
of
the
kyng
or
his
cousayle
.
wHan
chese
barons

thre

was
come
to
them
out

and
that
the

were
determyned
what

They
departed

there
rested
them
before

/
to
th
entent
to
shewe
themselfe
before
the
men
of

And

and
than
all
the

lodged
at
Hosque
.
All
these
forsayd
newe

were
made
/
bycause
of
the
vowarde
/
the
which
went
the
same

to
a
stronge
house
stadynge
on
the
ryuer
syde
/
called
Folant
.
Within
was
a
squyer
:
owner
of
the
house
/
called
Robert
/
he
was
a
good
man
of
armes
:
and
hadde
well
furnysshed
his
house
with
good
men
of
armes
the
whiche
he
had
gote
therabout
/
to
the
nombre
of
xl

And
they
made
good
semblant
to
defend
themselve
and
their
house
.
These
barons
and
knyghtes
in
their
newe
knyghthod
/
enuyroned
about
the
towre
of
Folant
:
and
began
fiersly
to
assayle
them
within
/
and
they
within
valiantly
defended
themselfe
.
There
was
done
many
feates
of
armes
and
they
within
shorte
so
holly
and
quickely
togyder
/
that
they
hurt
dyuers
assaylantes
suche
as
aduentured
themselfe
to

forwarde
,
for
they
had
within

good
crosbowes
sent
thyder
by
the
capitayne
of
saynt
Omers
/
at
the
request
of
the
squyer
/
for
he
feared
before
:
that
the
englisshmen
wolde
passe
by
his
house
wherfore
he
thought
to
kepe
it
to
the
best
of
his
power
/
and
so
he
dyde
:
for
he
bare
hymselfe
ryght
valiantly
.
Than
the
erle
of
Dymestre
spake
a
highe
worde
/
as
he
stode
on
the
dykes
/
his
baner
before
hym
/
the
whiche
worde
greatly
encouraged
his
people
.
Sayeng

howe
is
it
thus
in

newe
knyghthode
/
that

The

that

They
that
herde
these
wordes
noted
it
ryght
well
/
and
aduentured
them selfe
more
largely
than
they
dyde
before
/
and
entred
in
to
the
dykes
and
so
came
harde

.
and
there
th

archers
shotte

and
so
finallye
they
were
all

Howe
be
it
/
first
they
defended
themselve
tight
valiantly
/
and
neuer
a

within
/
that
was
wounded
to

Thus
the
house
of
Folant
was
taken

and
Robert
Folant
within
taken
prisoner
by
th
erle
of
Dymestre
/
and

but
it
was

For

In

The

had
abandoned
to
his

of
armes
/
all
that
euer
they
coude
get

So
th

So

Than
the

The

day
/
that

The

thought
surelye
/
that
the
englysshmen
wolde

/
with

Wherfore

a

Than

Who

Whiche
doute

caused
the

to

without

doyng
of

message
.
¶
Nowe
let
vs
shewe
what
was
done
in
this
scrimysshe
.
FIrst
ther
was
an
englisshe
squyre
borne
in
the
bysshoprike
of
Lyncoln
/
an
expert
man
of
armes
/
I
can
nat
se
whyder
he
coude
se
or
nat
:
but
he
spurred
his
horse
his
spear
in
his
hande
/
and
his
targe
about
his
necke
.
his
horse
came
russhyng
downe
the
way
/
and
lepte
clene
ouer
the
barres
of
the
barriers
/
and
so
galoped
to
the
gate
/
where
as
the
duke
of
Burgoyn
and
the
other
lordes
of
Fraunce
were
/
who
reputed
that
dede
for
a
great
enterprise
.
The
squier
thought
to
haue
returned
/
but
he
coulde
nat
/
for
his
horse
was
stryken
with
speares
and
heaten
downe
/
&
the
squier
slayne
.
wherwith
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
was
ryght
sore
displeased
/
that
he
had
nat
ben
taken
a
lyue
as
prisoner
.
Therwith
the
great
batayll
of
the
erle
of
Buckynghams
came
on
a
foote
/
towarde
these
men
of
armes
in
the
bastyde
/
the
which
was
made
but
of
dores
/
wyndowes
/
and
tables
.
And
to
saye
the
trouth
/
it
was
nothyng
to
holde
agaynst
suche
men
of
warre
/
as
the
englisshmen
were
/
wherfore
it
coulde
nat
longe
endure
.
Whan
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
sawe
them
comyng
so
thicke
and
so
great
a
nombre
/
consideryng
howe
his
nombre
was
nat
sufficyent
agaynst
them
.
commaunded
euery
man
to
entre
in
to
the
towne
:
except
crosbowes
/
and
so
they
entred
in
at
the
gate
lytell
and
lytell
/
and
whyle
they
entred
/
the
genowayes
cros
bowes
shot
continually
/
and
hurte
dyuers
of
the
englisshmen
.
There
was
a
sore
scrymishe
/
but
anone
the
bastyde
was
conquered
/
it
coulde
nat
endure
agaynst
englisshmen
.
So
the
frenchmen
entred
agayne
in
at
the
gate
/
&
as
they
entred
:
they
set
themselve
in
ordre
in
the
stretes
.
There
was
the
duke
of
Lorayne
/
and
the
lorde
Coucy
/
the
duke
of
Burbon
&
dyuers
other
bytwene
the
gate
and
the
barryers
/
there
was
many
a
feate
of
armes
done
.
some
slayne
/
hurt
/
and
taken
.
Whan
the
englisshmen
sawe
the
frenchmen
withdrawe
backe
/
they
in
lykewyse
reculed
backe
/
and
stode
styll
in
ordre
of
bataile
the
space
of
two
houres
/
and
than
returned
to
their
lodgyng
/
and
the
next
day
they
went
to
Maylleroys
the
Uycount
/
nere
to
Sence
in
Burgoyne
/
and
there
the
hoost
taryed
two
dayes
to
refresshe
them
/
and
to
get
vitayles
in
the
countre
/
for
they
had
no
great
plenty
.
THus
ye
haue
harde
well
:
howe
the
englisshmen
rode
throughe
the
realme
of
Fraunce
to
go
in
to
Bretayne
/
and
it
was
sayd
/
and
they
also
mayntayned
/
howe
the
duke
of
Bretayne
and
the
countrey
had
sent
for
them
/
and
made
no
warre
in
the
name
of
their
lorde
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
but
named
them selfe
to
be
sowdyers
of
the
duke
of
Bretaynes
.
Kyng
Charles
of
Fraunce
was
well
in
fourmed
of
all
these
maters
/
and
sagely
and
wysely
he
abuysed
the
parels
and
insydentes
that
might
growe
by
this
warre
/
and
sawe
well
howe
the
countre
of
Bretayne
with
the
ayde
of
the
englysshmen
were
contrary
to
hym
/
and
therby
he
feared
leest
the
fortune
of
the
warr
shulde
be
to
him
the
more
harder
.
And
specially
by
reason
of
the
duke
of
Bretayne
/
for
by
him
the
good
townes
of
Bretayne
shulde
be
his
enemyes
/
and
be
opyned
to
his
enemyes
/
wherby
he
shulde
haue
great
preiudyce
.
Wherfore
he
sent
swete
letters
and
gracyous
to
them
of
Nauntes
/
the
whiche
was
the
key
and
chefe
towne
of
all
Bretayne
.
shewynge
them
/
howe
th
englysshmen
as
they
rydde
through
the
realme
do
make
their
auaunt
and
afferme
/
howe
they
be
soudyers
and
sent
for
by
them
/
and
by
the
other
comons
of
Bretayne
.
And
also
she
wyng
them
/
howe
that
if
it
be
so
/
that
they
wyll
so
contynue
/
they
do
yuell
and
ronne
in
the
maledyction
&
sentence
of
the
holy
father
the
pope

And
in
the
forfeyture
of
two
hundred
thousande
florens
/
the
whiche
he
maye

laufully
take

whervnto

and
by
the
treaties
made
here
tofore

wherof
they
haue
the
copy
/
wherfore

And
also
he
shewed
them
howe
he
hath
ben
alwayes
their

and
hath
conforted
and
ayded
them
always
in

that
they
shulde
nat
do
so
farre

wherby
they
might
take

Sayeng
:
howe
they
had
no
suche
tytell

to
complayne
of
hym
/
or
to
entre
in
to
suche
a
warre
/
as
to
receyue
his
ennemyes
.
Wherfore
he
counsayled
them
to
be
well
aduysed
/
and
if
they
haue
ben
yuell
exorted
and
counsayled
by
feble
counsayle

yet
he
wolde
pardon
it
/
so
that
they
opyn
nat
their

And
in

so
doyng
he
promysed

to

Whan
these

thus
made
by
the
frenche

was
presented
to

howe
the

Fraunce
nor
ayde

assyst
none

Wherfore
they
toke
hede

the
mater

and
sent
secretly
to
the

desyring
hym
to
take
no

And
of
all
this
knewe
no

¶
The
next
day
they
rode
to
yēuyll
in
Beause
alwayes
beyng
in
hope
to
fyght
with
their
enemyes
/
for
well
they
knewe
/
howe
they
were
pursued
and
costed
on
all
parties
by
the
frenchmen
who
were
as
great
a
nombre
as
they
were
/
or
greatter
.
And
to
say
the
trouthe
/
the
frenche
lordes
/
knightes
and
squiers
/
had
great
wyll
and
desyre
to
fight
with
the
englysshmen
/
and
sayd
among
them selfe
.
Howe
it
was
a
great
shame
to
suffre
them
so
longe
vnfought
withall
.
And
whan
they
spake
to
the
kynge
therof
/
he
sayd
euer
to
them
.
Sirs
/
let
them
alone
to
kepe
on
their
waye
/
they
shall
at
lengthe
lese
them selfe
.
So
thus
the
englysshmen
kept
forthe
their
waye
/
to
th
entent
to
entre
in
to
Bretayne
.
And
as
ye
haue
harde
/
in
yenuyll
in
Beause
/
there
were
mo
than
thre
hundred
speres
/
and
all
the
hoost
passed
by
before
the
barryers
/
ther
was
a
lytell
scrimysshe
and
so
passed
forthe
/
for
they
lost
their
payne
/
and
without
yenuylle
there
was
a
fayre
wyndmyll
/
the
whiche
was
beaten
downe
.
So
the
erle
of
Buckyngham
came
to
yt●ruyll
/
and
alighted
at
the
house
of
the
templers
/
and
the
vouarde
went
to
Puyset
.
And
they
were
aduertysed
/
howe
that
there
was
a
stronge
towre
and
a
xl
.
companyons
within
.
Th
englysshmen
went
and
assayled
it
▪
it
stode
on
the
playne
grounde
with
lytell
defence
.
So
there
was
a
great
assaut
/
but
it
endured
nat
longe
/
for
the
englysshe
archers
shotte
so
holly
toguyder
/
that
ther
was
none
durst
apere
at
any
defence
:
So
the
towre
was
taken
/
and
all
they
within
slayne
or
taken
.
And
than
th
englysshmen
sette
fyre
in
the
towre
and
so
passed
forthe
/
for
they
coulde
fynde
no
good
waters
/
whiche
was
a
great
myschefe
for
them
.
Than
they
came
to
Ermoyne
and
loged
ther
and
fro
thens
wente
and
lodged
in
the
forest
of

The

for
so
sayde
all

/
I
shall
shewe

why
.
IT
was
of

that
the
kynge
of
Nauetr

whan
the
frenche

but
duke
of
Normandy
and
lay

/
he
wolde
haue
poysoned
him
.
so
that
the
kyng
receyued
the
poyson
/
and
was
in
the
case
/
that
all
the
heare
of
his
body
went
of
/
and
all
the
nayles
of
his
handes
and
fete
/
and
than
all
his
body
became
as
drie
as
a
staffe
:
so
that
he
was
without
remedy
.
The
emperoure
of
Rome
his
vncle
/
whan
he
herde
speakynge
of
his
malady
/
he
sent
hym
a
conyng
phisycion
the
greattest
mayster
reputed
in
that
arte
/
that
was
as
than
in
all
the
worlde
.
Whan
this
mayster
was
come
in
to
Fraunce
to
the
kynge
/
who
as
than
was
but
duke
of
Normandy
/
and
had
ones
knowlege
of
his
disease
:
he
said
he
knewe
well
that
he
was
poysoned
/
and
was
in
greate
parell
of
dethe
.
And
so
he
dyde
there
/
one
of
the
greattest
cures
that
hath
been
herde
of
/
for
he
kylled
the
venym
within
hym
/
or
the
best
parte
therof
.
and
made
his

and
nayles
to
growe

/
and
made

brought

.
This
venym
euer

and
whan

/
he

Loke
whan

But

So
the

remembred
well

dayes

whiche
thynge
often

And

that
ye

we
shall
make
you

wherin

Besyde
this

the

wherof
he

And
the
kynge
knewe
well
by
these

that

At
his

/
the
thynge
that
moost
conforted

was

that

hadde
sent

two

Charles

Lewes

WHan
this
issue
in
his

began
to

vp
/
the
doutes
of

began

Than
he
prouyed

for

prudent

as

euer

He

and
he
let
his

brother
the

and
sent
nat

/
bycause
he
knewe
well
he
was

Than
the

sayde

My

I
fele

Wherfore
I
recommaunde
in

loke
that
ye

Counsayle

for
in

lyeth
all

The
chylde
is
yonge

therfore
it
is
great

that

And
teche
him

Longe

in

he
shulde
haue

shulde

Wherfore
I
haue
had
dyuers

howe
it
might
be

without

for
thanked

god

standethe

The

is
a
craftie
and
a
subtell
man
/
and
hath
hadde
alwayes
his
herte
rather
englysshe

frenche

Wherfore
it
wyll
be
requysite
/
that
ye
kepe
the
noble

of
Bretayne
in
loue

I

Seke
for

to
the

ye

how
our
aduersary
the
kyng
of
Englande
wyll
mary
there
/
to
haue
the
more
alyaunce
.
The
poore
people
of
our

/
ar
sore
oppressed
and
tourmented
by
him
&
his

Therfore
putte
them
away
as
shortely
as
ye

for
they
are
thynges

I
haue
sustayned
them
/
that
greueth
me
ryght

But
the
great
alyance
that
we
haue

of
Bretayne

hath
caused
me
to

THe

At

rehersall
was
the

The

douted

thoughe
the

dyde

of

/
and
putte
hym
farre

of

of
Fraunce
.
yet
the
duke
of
Aniowe
thought
to
medyll
neuer
the
lesse
for
all
his
absence
/
for
he
had
alwayes
messangers
comynge

goynge
bytwene
Paris

Angers
/
who
euer
reported
to
hym
the

And
also
the
duke
had
some
secrete
persons
alwayes

The

and
thought
nat
therfore
to
abyde
them
also
they
were
nat

So
they

Thus
the

rode
forthe

founde
no

so
all

There

¶
The

Charles
the
frenche
kynge
dyed
in

Poule
in

And
as
soone
as
the
duke
of
A●io
we
his

knewe
that
his

were
closed
/
he
toke
and
seased
all
the

iewels
the
whiche
were
without

▪
and
dyde
put
them
in

Thynkyng
how
they
came
right
well
to
passe
/
to
ayd
hym
in
his
warres
that
he
thought
to
make
/
for
he
wrote
hym selfe
kynge
of
Cycell
/
of
Pulle
/
of
Calabre
/
and
of
H●erusalem
.
THe
frenche
kynge
was
caryed
through
the
cytie
of
Parys
with
open
visage
discouered
/
his
bretherne
and
his
two
sonnes
behynde
hym
to
the
abbey
of
saynt
Denyse
.
and
there
he
was
buryed
right
honourably
/
in
lyke
maner
as
he
hadde
ordayned
in
his
lyfe
tyme
/
and
sir
Bertram
of

And
though
that
kynge
Charles
in

tyme
had
well
ordayned
for
the
gouernyng
of
the
realme
/
howe
it
shulde

ben
ordayned

yet
the
duke
of
Aniou
folowed
nothinge
that
ordynaunce
.
For
he
toke
on
hym
incontynent
the
gouernynge
and
reygned
aboue
all
his
bretherne
.
Howe
be
it
he
wolde
that
Charles
his
nephewe
shulde
be
kynge
/
but
he
wolde
haue
the
gouernyng
of
the
realme
aboue
all

/
bycause
he
was
the
eldest
.
And
there
was
none
in
Fraunce
that
durst
saye

Thus
the
kynge
dyed
about
Myghelmas

Anone
after
his
discease

the
lordes
of
Fraunce
aduysed

and
were
lodged
at
Nogen
.
and
than
departed
and
wente
to
Porle
a
two

and
all

was

but
they
dyde
nothynge

alwayes

Some

whan

Than

to

And
so
the

men
lay
styll
a
thre
or
foure
dayes
/
than
they
departed
and
went
to
saint
Peters
of

to
Argens
.
and
the

the

passed
the

/
thorough
a
marys
with
great
payne
/
for
they
coulde
nat
passe
but
two
or
thre
a
front
the
space
of

▪
If

and
had

/
the

The

doubted
moche
that
passage
/
Howe beit
they
passed
it
and
came
to
Cosse
/
and
were
there
four
dayes
▪
alwayes
in
hope
to

some

The

in

herde
often
tymes
worde

And

for
he
loued

The
rancoure
and
hate
that
I
had

realme
of
Fraunce
/
bycause
of

Charles
nowe
deed
/
is

Such

and
some
haue
made
warre
to
the

Howe

Therfore

There

And
thervpon
the

So

The

These
wordes
greatly
contented
the
erle
of
Buckyngham
and
the
englysshmen
/
&
sayd
.
howe
the
duke
coulde
saye

.
Than
the
dukes

And
the
englysshemen
taryed

castell
Briaunt
foure
dayes

and
than
departed
and
came
to
the

of
the

and
wolde
suffre
no

But

I

but
the

began
nat

bycause
the

They

To

sixe
hundred

Thus

and
these
men
of

entended
to

in
all

THe

Within

Bretaygne
/
of
Beause
/
of

who
entended

So
they
had
all
the
charge
therof
/
in
so
moche
that
they
of
the
towne
had
no
busynesse
therwith

And

Martyns
nyght

Sirs

ye

shewe
vs

So
they
gadered
toguyder
the
same
euenyng
to
the
nombre
of
sixscore
of
choyse
men
.
Than
they
opyned

of
saynt
Peter
/
where
as
the
constable
/
The
lorde
Bassette
and
the

So
the
frenchmen
set
good
order
at
the
gate
/
bycause
of
their
retrayt
Capitayns
of
that
company
was
/
the
Barrois
of
Barres
/
Johan
of
the

Morant
/
and
the
capitayne
of
Clysson
:
and
so
they
came
on
the
hoost
as
they
were
at
supper
/
&
had
to
their
crye
the
barres
.
So
they
entred
in

their

/
and
beate
downe
and
hurt
many
than
anone
the
englysshemen
were

And
whan
the

sawe
that
/
they
retourned

kept
theym
toguyder
ryght
sagely

and
so
retourned

Than
the

thyder
and
scrymysshed
/
ther
was
entryng
and
puttyng
backe
and
beatynge
on
bothe
parties

and
so
the
frenchemen
entred
into
their

.
Ther
were
dyuers
slayne

hurt
on
bothe
sydes
/
but
the
Barroyes
of
barres
entred
agayne
the
towne
with
lytell
domage
.
And
so
this
scrimyshe
was
reputed
to
be
well
done
on
bothe
parties
.
ANd
on
saynte
Martyns
daye
at
nyght
/
the

They
take

.
So
they
were
all
agreed

so
rowed

and
toke
lande
besyde

Sir
Johan
Harleston
was
lodged

and
at
the
brekyng
of
the
day
the

were
rounde

and
assayled
it
.
Anone

his

were
armed
and
redy
at
their
defence
right
valiantly

and
archers
shotte
agaynst
the
crosbowes

There
was
a
sore
scrimysshe
and
dyuers
hurt

and
surely
that

had
ben
taken
&
conquered
/
and
sir
Robert
Canoll
had

And
so
he
and
all

dysplayed
/
came
priuely
to
that
parte
.
And
also
sir
Wyllyam
Wyndsore
hadde

and
so
he
and
all
his
company
came
thyder
/
and
styll
englysshmen
drewe

fro
all
partes
.
Than
the
frenchmen
drewe
backe

the
ryuer
warde
to

so
at

scrimysshed
euer

Ther
were
dyuers
hurt
with
shotte
on
bothe
parties

and
specially
sir
Thomas
of
Rodes
/
a
knight
of
Almayne

was
shotte
through
the
bassenet
into
the
heed

of
the
whiche
stroke
he
dyed
within
thre
dayes
after
/
whiche
was
great
domage
/
for
he
was
a
valyant
knight
.
So
the
frenchmen
and
bretons
entred
agayne
in
to
Nauntes
with
lytell
domage
/
and
had
taken
sixe
prisoners
.
So
thus
the

and
th
englysshmen
euer
made
good
watche
/
for
euery
night
they
loked
for
none
other
thyng
/
but
to
be
waked
and
reysed
fro
their
rest
.
THus
th
erle
of
Buckyngham
lay
before
Nauntes
/
abyding
dayly
for
the
duke
of
Bretayne
who
came
nat
/
and
to
that
he
had
promysed
and
sworne
nothynge
kepte
:
wherof
the
erle
hadde
marueyle
what
he
ment
/
that
he
coude
here
no
tidynges

The
erle
had
sent
to
him
dyuers
messangers

of
Reynes
.
But
for
all
the
letters
that
th
erle
sent
/
he
hadde
neuer
none
answere
agayne
.
The
englysshmen
supposed
that
the
messangers
were
slayne
by
the
waye
bycause
none
retourned
agayne
/
and
truely
they
were
in
great

without

bytwene
Nauntes

Hanybout
were
so
sore

So
that
it

knowen
from
whens
they
came
and
whyder
they
wolde

to
the
entent
that
no

/
yf
any

they
were
slayne

Also
the

of

in

for
the

wolde
in
no

By

qd
the

of
Buckynghame
I
ame
content
to
swere
to
you
to
kepe
and
fulfyll
all

othe
/
for
they
were
fayne
so
to

/
or
els
to
haue
lyen
in

feldes
.
Thus
the
erle
of
Buckynghame
was
lodged
in
the
eytie
of
Uannes
hym selfe
lay
in
the
dukes
house
/
a
pleasaunt
and
a
fayre
castell
handyng
within
the
towne
named
the
Motte
.
and
all
his
company
were
lodged

the
towne
and
in
the
subbarbes
/
and
the
duke
of
Bretayn
and
his

went
to
Asnotte
and
there
abode
/
and
somtyme
he
came
to
Uannes
to

The

/
sir
Thomas
Percy
/
sir
Thomas
Triuet
and
the

were

about
the
towne
of
Hambout
/
but
they
neuer
came
within
the
gates
/
but
laye
in
the
subbarbes
and
in
the

.
Sir
Robert
Canoll

and
the
lorde
Fitz
waren
and
diuers
other
shulde
haue
lodged
in
the

/
called
Ouyn
percorentyn
.
But
they
wolde
neuer
open
their
gates
/
wherfore
they
were
fayne
to
lodge
in
the
subbarbes
and
in
the
feldes
.
So
thus
they
endured
&
suffered
that
season
great
dissease
and
pouerty
for
that
was
nat
worth
thre
pens
/
was
solde
to

pence
.
yea
?
and
worse
/
for
somtyme
they

so
that
their

and
whan
they

The
vicount
of
Rohan

that
tyme
in
the
marches
of
Uannes
two
stronge
castelles
/
the
one
called
Cayre

there
was

All

lodged
in
the
feldes
without

/
it
was
great
marueyle
they
hadde
no
more

for

coude
nat

Campernell
/
or
Hanybout
or
Numpercorentyne

but
to

the

and
defended

that
they
shulde

And

IN

let

wyll

and

leaue

and
there
is
nowe
a
yonge
kyng
fayre
and

and
suche

hated
his

.
Sir
/
we

make

and
sette

and

.
and
let

.
These
wordes
and
suche
other
the
for
sayd
barons
/
shewed
to
the
duke
dyuers
tymes
/
so
that
they

howe
be

tyll

.
And
of
all
these
secrete

/
that
these
foure
barones
of
Bretayne
had
made

Parys
with
the

Wherof
I

SO

Some

In

And

And

And

Than

In

And

they

So

Cap.

IT

and
specially
sithe
that

But

And
Rase

Peter

/
Arnolde

The

there
was

and
the

and
so
they
rebelled
.
And
a
tertayne
weyuers
and
fullers
were
slayne

and
the

.
Than

The

and
so
departed

and
sir
Wyllyam
of
Namure
in

and
a

nombre
of
knightis
and
squyers
of

and
so
came

wher

was
r●ceyued
with

.
And
at

And
whan
they
of
Franke
vnderstode
that
the
erle
was
peasably

Bruges
/
they
feared
.
and
so
put
them selfe
in
to
the
erles
mercy
/
and
he
receyued
them
and
had
great
ioye
/
for
dayly
his
power
increased
.
And
also
they
of
Franke
alwayes
haue
taken
more

erles
parte

than
all

re●ydue
of
Flaunders
.
The
erle
/
seyng
that
he
had
brought
vnder

them

Bruges
and
of

/
and
that
he

/
he
thought

lytell
&
lytell
to

/
and
to

.
And
first
he
ordayned
and
sayd
:
he
wolde
go

/
for
he
hated
them
greatly
/
bycause
they
opened
their

so
lightly
to

of
Gaunt
,
and
sayd
/
how
that
they
that
had
made
that
treaty
/
and
to

shulde
repent

Than
he
made

/
sayeng

.
tidynges
came

that
the

Than
they

So

signifyed
to
them
the
state
of
the
erle

Than
they
of

remembred
well

howe

Than

Of

So

them
(
as
than
)
moost
profitable
.
So
they
drewe
abacke
in
a
batayle
raynged
in
good
ordre
/
and
the
same
day
returned
to
Courtray
.
And
thither
also
drewe
many
of
them
that
fled
.
So
they
lodged
all
within
Cortray
/
and
made
the
gates
to
be
well
kepte
/
to
th
entent
that
they
shulde
nat
be
sodenly
taken
.
And
whan
John
Bulle
and
Arnolde
Clerke
were
returned
/
and
had
rekened
all
theyr
people
/
than
they
knewe
well
/
that
of
them
of
Gaunte
/
suche
as
had
ben
sent
to
Iper
before
/
they
had
loste
in
nombre
a
xii
.
C.
&
as
many
of
them
of
Iper
.
And
if
they
of
the
buss
hement
had
chased
them
that
fled
to
Iper
and
to
Cortray
/
there
had
but
a
fewe
skaped
/
but
all
had
ben
deed
or
taken
/
but
they
chased
nat
farre
.
They
toke
hede
to
nothynge
/
but
to
slee
them
that
were
within
theyr
bushement
.
the
whiche
saued
all
the
residue
.
They
of
Iper
were
sore
abasshed
/
whan
they
sawe
theyr
people
returne
beaten
and
discomfited
/
the
same
day
that
they
were
issued
out
:
and
demaunded
howe
it
myght
be
.
And
dyuerse
answered
/
and
sayde
howe
John
Bulle
had
betrayed
them
/
and
had
brought
them
to
be
shamfully
slayne
.
ye
haue
hard
often
tymes
recorded
howe
it
is
a
harde
warke
to
apease
a
Commontie
whan
they
be
styrred
.
I
say
this
bycause
of
them
of
Gaunte
.
Whan
they
were
the
same
day
drawen
backe
to
Courtray
.
They
that
were
disconfytted
knewe
well
that
John
Bulle
was
in
the
towne
.
Than
mo
than
a
thousand
drewe
together
&
said
/
let
vs
go
on
the
false
traytour
John
Bulle
/
who
hath
betrayed
vs
.
For
by
hym
and
by
none
other
we
toke
that
way
that
brought
vs
into
the
bushement
of
our
ennemyes
.
For
if
we
had
beleued
Arnold
the
Clerke
/
we
had
ben
in
suretie
/
For
he
wolde
haue
brought
vs
to
oure
owne
company
/
and
John
Bulle
had
nat
ben
/
who
hath
solde
and
betrayed
vs
/
and
brought
vs
where
as
we
were
betrayed
and
discomfytted
.
Loo
/
ye
may
se
howe
these
comons
accused
hym
of
treason
/
and
yet
I
thynke
veryly
they
had
no
cause
so
to
do
.
For
if
it
had
ben
as
they
sayd
/
and
that
he
had
solde
and
betrayed
them
to
the
erle
/
he
wold
neuer
haue
returned
agayn
to
them
/
but
rather
haue
bydden
styll
with
the
erle
.
Howe
be
it
I
can
nat
excuse
hym
so
/
but
that
it
cost
hym
his
lyfe
/
and
I
shall
tell
you
howe
.
The
gauntoyse
went
and
toke
hym
in
his
lodgynge
/
and
so
brought
hym
into
the
streat
/
and
there
he
was
striken
an
to
peces
/
so
that
euery
man
bare
awaye
a
pece
of
hym
.
Thus
ended
John
Bulle
.
The
next
day
the
Gauntoyse
departed
fro
Courtray
and
returned
to
Gaunte
/
and
dyd
sende
John
de
Lanuoy
to
the
castell
of
Gaures
/
a
castell
of
the
erles
/
standynge
by
the
ryuer
of
lescaulte
/
and
there
this
John
made
a
garyson
.
¶
Howe
they
of
Iper
and
Courtray
turned
to
the
erle
of
Flaunders
parte
/
and
howe
the
towne
of
Gaunte
was
besieged
.
Cap.
CCC
.lxxvi.
NOwe
let
vs
speke
of
the
erle
of
Flaunders
and
of
his
company
.
Whan
they
had
thus
by
theyr
bushement
ouerthrowen
the
gauntoyse
&
slayne
a
.iii.
M.
of
them
or
there
aboute
/
what
of
them
of
Gaunte
and
of
Iper
.
Than
the
erle
determyned
to
drawe
towarde
the
towne
of
Iper
/
and
to
laye
siege
therto
.
And
as
he
was
counsayled
so
it
was
done
/
and
he
drewe
thither
with
all
his
people
/
a
great
nombre
of
knyghtes
and
squyers
of
Flaunders
/
of
Heynault
/
and
of
Artoys
/
who
were
come
thyther
to
serue
the
erle
.
And
whan
they
of
Iper
vnderstode
that
the
erle
came
on
them
so
strongely
/
they
were
all
sore
afrayed
/
and
the
ryche
men
of
the
towne
toke
counsayle
/
and
sayd
amonge
them selfe
/
howe
they
wolde
open
theyr
gates
/
and
go
and
mete
the
erle
/
and
put
them selfe
vnder
his
obeysaunce
/
and
crye
hym
mercy
.
and
to
shewe
hym
howe
they
were
gauntoyse
by
force
/
by
reason
of
the
comontie
/
as
fullers
/
weauers
/
and
suche
other
vnhappy
people
in
the
towne
.
And
they
thought
that
the
Erle
was
so
pytefull
/
that
he
wolde
haue
mercy
on
them
.
And
as
they
ordeyned
/
so
they
dyd
.
And
so
mo
than
.iii.
C.
in
a
company
came
out
of
the
towne
of
Iper
/
and
had
the
keyes
of
the
gates
with
them
/
&
so
they
fell
downe
on
theyr
knees
before
the
Erle
cryenge
for
mercy
/
and
dyd
put
them selfe
and
theyr
towne
at
his
pleasur
.
The
erle
had
pité
on
them
and
toke
them
to
mercy
/
&
so
entred
with
all
his
puyssaunce
in
to
the
towne
of
Iper
and
there
taried
a
.iii.
wekes
/
and
sent
home
agayne
them
of
Franke
&
of
Bruges
.
And
while
th
erle
lay
in
Iper
he
caused
to
be
beheedded
mo
than
.vii.
C.
of
fullers
&
weauers
and
of
suche
maner
of
people
as
had
brought
fyrst
into
that
towne
John
Leon
and
the
gauntoyse
/
and
slayne
suche
valyaunt
men
as
the
erle
had
sette
ther.
For
the
whiche
cause
the
erle
was
sore
displeased
/
and
to
th
entent
that
they
shuld
no
more
rebell
/
he
sent
a
.iii.
C.
of
the
most
notablest
of
them
into
prison
in
Bruges
.
and
so
than
toke
his
way
to
Courtray
to
brynge
that
towne
to
his
obeysaunce
.
Whan
they
of
Courtray
vnderstode
that
th
erle
theyr
lorde
came
to
them
so
strongely
/
and
howe
that
Iper
was
vnder
his
obeysaunce
/
than
they
greatly
doubted
/
for
they
sawe
no
comfort
apparent
fro
them
of
Graunte
.
Wherfore
they
were
aduised
lyghty
to
yeld
them
to
theyr
lord
/
thynkynge
it
was
better
for
them
to
hold
with
th
erle
/
to
whom
they
ought
to
owe
theyr
fayth
&
homage
/
rather
than
to
the
gauntoyse
.
Than
they
ordeyned
a
.iii.
C.
of
the
best
of
the
towne
a
foote
to
go
into
the
feldes
to
th
erle
/
and
the
keyes
of
the
towne
with
them
.
And
whan
th
erle
came
by
/
they
all
kneled
downe
and
cryed
for
mercy
.
The
erle
had
pitie
of
them
/
and
receyued
them
to
mercy
/
and
entred
into
the
towne
ioyously
/
and
they
al
made
to
hym
reuerence
and
honor
.
Than
he
toke
a
.ii.
C.
of
the
best
of
the
towne
of
Courtray
/
and
sent
them
to
Lisle
&
to
Daway
in
hostage
/
to
then
tent
that
that
towne
shuld
no
more
rebelle
.
And
whan
the
erle
had
ben
there
a
.vi.
dayes
.
than
he
went
to
Bruges
/
and
there
refresshed
hym
a
.xv.
dayes
.
Than
he
made
a
great
somons
/
to
th
entent
to
lay
siege
to
Gaunte
.
For
all
the
residue
of
Flaunders
was
as
than
at
his
commandement
.
Than
the
erle
departed
fro
Bruges
/
and
so
came
and
layd
siege
before
Gaunte
/
and
lodged
at
a
place
called
the
Briet
.
Thither
came
to
the
erle
ser
Robert
of
Namure
to
serue
the
erle
with
a
certayne
nombre
of
men
of
warre
/
accordynge
as
the
erle
had
wrytten
vnto
hym
.
But
syr
William
of
Namure
was
nat
there
/
he
was
in
Fraunce
with
the
kynge
/
and
with
the
duke
of
Borgoyn
.
This
siege
began
about
the
feast
of
the
decollacion
of
saynt
John
Baptist
.
And
ser
water
Danhien
was
marshall
of
all
the
oost
of
Flaunders
.
He
was
yonge
and
hardy
/
and
feared
no
payne
nor
perill
/
whatsoeuer
fell
.
For
all
that
the
erle
lay
thus
before
the
towne
of
Gaunte
/
yet
he
coude
nat
so
constrayne
them
of
the
towne
/
but
that
they
kept
styll
open
iii.
or
.iiii.
of
theyr
gates
.
so
that
vitayles
myght
come
in
to
them
without
any
dasiger
.
For
they
of
Brussels
and
of
Brabant
were
right
fauourable
to
them
.
And
also
they
of
Liege
/
to
conforte
them
in
theyr
opinion
/
sent
to
them
a
message
/
sayenge
thus
,
ye
good
people
of
Gaunte
/
we
of
Liege
knowe
well
/
howe
ye
be
soretrauayled
/
and
haue
moche
a
do
with
the
erle
your
lorde
/
wherof
we
are
sore
displeased
.
But
syrs
knowe
for
treuth
if
we
dyd
marche
nere
you
/
as
within
iiii
.
or
.v.
leages
/
we
shulde
gyue
you
suche
comforte
as
men
ought
to
do
to
theyr
good
neyghbours
and
frendes
.
but
ye
be
farre
of
fro
vs
.
and
also
the
countrey
of
Brabant
is
betwene
you
&
vs
.
wherfore
we
must
forbeare
.
But
thought
it
be
so
that
ye
be
as
nowe
besieged
/
yet
be
nat
discomforted
.
For
god
knoweth
/
and
so
doth
all
other
good
townes
/
that
ye
be
in
the
ryght
of
this
warre
.
Wherfore
all
your
busynes
shall
acheue
the
better
.
Thus
they
of
Liege
sent
to
them
of
Gaunte
to
comforte
them
.
Th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
who
had
thus
besieged
the
towne
of
Gaunte
on
the
syde
towardes
Bruges
/
and
towarde
Courtray
:
but
as
toward
Brussels
th
erle
coude
nat
come
/
nor
lay
his
siege
/
bicause
of
the
great
riuers
/
that
is
to
say
the
ryuer
of
Lyse
/
and
the
ryuer
of
lescault
.
And
I
saye
vnto
you
/
all
thynges
consydered
/
Gaunte
is
one
of
the
most
strongest
townes
of
that
worlde
.
For
it
behoueth
mo
than
.ii.
C.
M.
men
to
besiege
it
rounde
/
and
to
stoppe
fro
it
all
the
ryuers
and
passages

and
also
that
the
ostis
lye
nere
together
/
for
els
they
coude
nat
conforte
one
another
/
bicause
of
the
riuers
.
And
also
ther
is
moche
people
in
the
towne
of
Gaunte
/
they
were
in
those
dayes

men
of

¶
And
whan
th
erle
had
layen
at
this
siege
the
space
of
a
moneth
/
&
that
his
men
/
and
the
Haze
his
sone
/
&
his
marshall
had
made
many
askrymysshe
with
them
of
Gaunt
/
and
some
day
wonne
and
some
day
loste
/
as
the
aduentures
of
warre
falleth
.
Than
th
erle
was
counsayled
on
a
day
to
sende
them
of
Bruges
/
of
Iper
/
and
of
Pourprynge
to
skrymysshe
with
the
gauntoyse
/
at
a
place
called
the
longe
brydge
/
for
it
was
thought
that
if
they
myght
wynne
that
place
/
it
shuld
be
a
great
aduauntage
and
profitte
for
them
/
for
than
they
shulde
entre
into
the
.iiii.
craftes
/
and
therby
aproche
nere
to
Gaunte
.
And
so
there
was
ordeyned
syr
Josse
Ualuin
to
be
chief
capitayne
of
that
enterprise
.
And
so
whan
they
were
come
to
this
passage
/
they
founde
it
nat
disgarnisshed
but
well
prouyded
for
/
with
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
Gaunte
.
There
was
Peterdu
voyse
/
Peter
de
Nuytee
/
and
Rase
de
harzelles
.
There
beganne
a
sore
skrymysshe
/
there
was
shotyng
of
gonnes
and
crosbowes
on
both
parties
/
wherby
dyuers
were
slayne
and
wounded
.
And
right
well
the
gauntoyse
dyd
acquyte
them selfe
/
for
they
reculed
theyr
enemies
/
and
wanne
by
force
the
goldsmythes
baner
of
Bruges
/
and
there
it
was
cast
downe
in
to
the
water
.
And
ther
were
of
the
goldesmythes
and
other
a
great
nombre
slayne
and
hurte
/
and
specially
ser
Josse
Ualuin
was
thereslayne
/
Whiche
was
great
vomage
.
And
so
the
other
returned
agayne
without
doynge
any
more
.
So
the
gauntoyse
bare
them selfe
valiauntly
.
¶
Howe
the
erle
of
Flaunders
reysed
vp
his
siege
fro
the
towne

of
the

betwene

.
Cap.
CCC
.lxxvii.
OUrynge
this
siege
before
Gaunte
there
were
many
skrymysshes
before
the
towne
/
for
the
lorde
Danghien
&
the
seneschall
of
Heynault
and
the
Haze
of
Flanders
whan
they
myght
spy
any
maner
of
aduauntage
/
they
toke
none
to
raunsome
.
And
some
tyme
they
were
so
put
abacke
/
that
they
had
no
leyser
to
loke
behynde
them
.
Than
they
of
Gaunte
drewe
together
to
the
nombre
of
.vi.
M.
and
Rase
of
Harzelles
/
Arnolde
Clerke
&
John
Launoy
were
capitaynes
.
And
they
departed
out
of
Gaunte
without
any
daunger
of
the
oste
/
and
went
to
Alour
a
good
closed
towne
/
and
the
erle
had
lyenge
there
in
garison
dyuerse
knyghtes
.
But
incontynent
as
they
knewe
of
the
comynge
of
the
gauntoyse
they
fled
out
of
the
towne
at
the
gate
towarde
Brussels
/
for
els
they
had
ben
deed
/
for
the
towne
incontinent
was
brent
and
spoyled
by
the
gauntoyse
/
wherin
they
conquered
great
pyllage
.
And
fro
thence
they
went
to
Teremond
a
stronge
towne
yet
by
assaute
they
conquered
it
.
And
ther
was
slayne
ser
Philip
of
Namure
.
And
so
the
gauntoyse
were
lordes
of
the
towne
/
but
nat
of
the
castell
:
for
the
lord
of
Wyndscot
kept
it
valiantly
.
Than
the
Gauntoyse
went
to
Granmout
/
the
whiche
was
newly
turned
to
the
erles
parte
by
the
treatie
of
the
lorde
Danghien
.
and
I
can
nat
tell
whether
it
were
by
treason
or
nat
but
the
gauntoyse
entred
by
force
/
and
many
of
them
within
slayne
.
And
whan
they
had
made
this
voyage
/
they
retourned
agayne
to
Gaunte
with
great
praye
and
pyllage
.
¶
Whan
the
erle
of
Flaunders
sawe
that
he
lost
his

with
lyeng
at
the

howe
that
he
laye
there
at
great
coste

charge

and
great
payn

to

for
he
sawe
well

There

Also

Whan
they
of

herde
those

/
they
were
sore
afrayed
and
sorousull
for
the
dethe
of
Rase

for
he
was
welbeloued

and
they
had
a
great
trust
in

for
they
had
euer
founde
him
a

And
bicause
that
Rase
was

to
a

and
that
he

they
loued

honoured
him

Than
they

of

that
were
come
thyder
flyeng
fro

wher
Peter

and
they

answered

We
can
nat
tell
you
wher

for
we
sawe

than
some
of
them
of
the
towne
of

/
began
to
murmure
agaynst
Peter

and
sayde
/
howe

in

was
nat
at
the

:
seyng
that
he
had
a
sixe

M.
men
of
warr
with

And
so
they
of

towne
were
determyned
that
as
soone
as
Peter
du
Boyse
shulde
returne
/
they
wolde
slee
him
.
and
than
agre
with
their
lorde
th
erle
/
and
put
them
all
in
to

.
I
beleue
if
they
had
doone
thus
/
they
had
done
wisely
/
and
I
thynke
sortlye
haue
come
to
peace
.
But
they
dyde
nat
thus
the
whiche
they
derely
bought
after
/
and
in
like
wyse
so
dyde
all
the
countre
of
Flaunders
.
For
yet
to
this
day
/
euery
thynge
is
nat
as
it
ought
to
be
in
Flaunders
.
Whan
this
bataile
at
Nieul
was
done
/
the
Erle
vnderstode
that
Peter
du
Boyse
and
a
great
batayle
of
Gauntoyse
were
styll
abrode
in
the
feldes
/
and
were
goynge
to
Gaunt
.
Than
the
erle
demaunded
counsayle
/
whyder
he
shulde
go
and
fyght
with
them
or
nat
.
and
his
lordes
and
knyghtes
aunswered
hym
/
howe
he
had
done
ynoughe
for
that
daye
.
And
howe
that
his
men
were
wery

and
had
nede
of
rest
.
But
they
counsayled
to
sende
a
fyue
or
sixe
hundred
men
of
armes
to
pursue
them
/
and
to
se
what
they
dyde
.
Sayeng
/
howe
parauenture
they
myght
happe
to
fynde
their
enemyes
lodged
that
night
in
suche
a
place
/
that
they
wolde
loke
on
them
/
at
their
dislodgynge
in
the
mornyng
.
The
erle
was
content
with
this
counsaile
and
so
it
was
done
.
Anone
they
were
apoynted
out
that
shulde
go
in
this
company
/
and
the
lorde
Daughien
was
chefe
capitayne
.
So
they
departed
fro
Nieuie
and
rode
vnder
couert
/
to
se
the
demeanour
of
the
gauntoyse
.
and
at
laste
they
sawe
the
gauntoyse
wher
they
discended
downe
a
hyll
/
kepynge
them selfe
close
and
in
good
order
.
The
lorde
Danghien
and
his
company
pursued
them
a
farre
of
/
on
the
one
syde
.
And
Peter
de
Boyse
and
the
gauntoyse
sawe
them
well
/
but
they
made
no
semblant
.
Than
sayd
Peter
de
Boyse
to
his
company
.
Sirs
/
lette
vs
kepe
on
our
way
and
breke
none
order
.
yf
they
come
on
vs
/
let
vs
receyue
theym
/
but
I
thynke
they
wyll
nat
medyll
with
vs
.
Thus
they
rode
tyll
they
came
to
Gaunt
.
Than
the
lorde
Danghien
retourned
to
the
erle
/
and
Peter
de
Boyse
&
his
company
entred
in
to
Gaunt
.
Than
Peter
du
Boyse
was
so
receyued
/
that
he
was
at
the
poynt
to
haue
bene
slayne
/
bycause
he
had
nat
holpen
Rase
de
Harsels
/
at
the
batayle
of
Nieule
.
Peter
de
Boyse
excused
hymselfe
and
sayd
/
howe
he
had
sende
to
Rase
/
that
in
no
wyse
he
shulde
fight
with
the
erle
/
without
he
were
in
his
company
/
bycause
the
erle
had
so
great
a
puissaunce
/
but
Rase
dyde
the
clene
contrary
.
And
therfore
though
yuell
become
to
hym
/
I
can
nat
do
therwith
.
And
sirs
/
knowe
surely
:
that
I
am
as
sorie
and
as
moche
displeased
for
his
dethe
/
as
any
man
may
be
.
For
the
towne
of
Gaunte
hath
lost
of
hym
a
right
valyant
man
/
and
a
sage
capitayne
.
Therfore
it
is
conuenyent
to
seke
out
for
another
discrete
/
sage
/
and
of
good
renome
/
or
els
let
vs
all
put
our selfe
vnder
the
obeysance
of
the
erle
.
And
he
shall
distroye
vs

/
&
make

dethe
.
beholde

?
chose
what
ye

outher
perceyuer
and
contynue
as
we
haue
done
/
or
els
to
put
vs
in
to
the
erles
mercy
?
And
as
than
ther
were
none
that
answered
hym
/
but
as
for
the
batayle
of
Nieule
/
and
of
the
dethe
of
Rase
de
Harselles
/
he
was
excused
.
And
bycause
they
gaue
hym
none
answere
to
that
he
sayde
/
he
was
sore
dyspleased
in
his
mynde
.
And
specially
he
was
nat
content
with
some
of
the
burgesses
that
were
ther
present
/
of
the
best
and
moost
notablest
of
the
towne
.
As
sir
Guysbert
Grut
/
and
sir
Symonde
Brette
.
He
made
as
than
to
them
no
semblant
/
but
he
shewed
well
his
displeasure
to
them
or
the
yere
past
/
as
ye
shall
here
after
.
wHan
the
lorde
Danghien
and
the
lorde
Montigny
/
the
Hase
of
Flaunders
/
and
their
routes
were
retourned
from
Nieule
to
the
erle
/
and
had
shewed
him
all
that
they
had
sene
.
Than
th
erle
departed
and
went
to
Bruges
/
and
sent
home
his
people
of
the
good
townes
/
and
he
sende
them
of
Franke
with
the
lorde
Danghien
to
And
warpe
.
And
whan
they
of
Gaunte
vnderstode
that
the
Erle
was
gone
backe
to
Bruges
/
and
that
his
people
were
departed
fro
hym
.
Than
by
the
styrring
and
mouyng
of
Peter
de
Boyse
/
they
of

for

To

the

of

of

/
in
him
was
all
the
honour
of
the
countie
ol
Flaunders

and
so
whyle
th
erle
lay
at
Bruges
/
he
called
him
nat
all
onelye
his
cosyn
/
but
also
his
fayre
sonne
.
Whan
it
was
knowen
at
Gaunte
/
that
Arnolde
Clerke
was

and
his
men
discomfyted
there
were
many
than
that
were

Our

proueth

Lytell

We

The

I
trowe
we
haue
to

sustayned
the
opinyons
of
Johan
Lyon
and
Peter

.
They
haue
brought
vs

depe
into
this

and
into
the

of
the

our

/
that
nowe
we
can
nat
nor

nat
howe
to

.
yet
it
wer
better
that
.xx.
or
.xxx.
dyd
repent
it

thanne
all
the
hole

.
Thus
there
were
dyuers
that
sayde
eche
to
other
priuely
/
they
durst
nat
speke
it
generally
/
for
dout
of
them
that
were
yuell
.
For
they
were
all
of
one
sect
/
&
daylye
encreased
in
puissaunce
.
And
in
the
begynnynge
they
were
but
poore
companyons
without
any
substaunce
/
but
than
they
had
golde
and
syluer
ynough
.
For
whan
they
neded
&
complayned
to
their
capitayns
/
they
were
well
herde
&
conforted
.
For
than
anone
some
of
the
riche
men
of
the
towne
shulde
be
sent
for
to
them
/
&
whan
they
were
come
/
for
feare
they
durste
nat
refuce
so
to
do
.
Than
the
capitayns
wolde
say
to
them
.
Sirs
/
it
behoueth
that
the
good
towne
of
gaunt
make
some
shyft
to
pay
our
soudyers
/
who
aydeth
and
helpeth
to
defende
and
to
kepe
our
iurysdictyons
and
fraunchiese
/
and
it
behoueth
that
our
companyons
muste
lyue
.
And
so
they
wolde
aske
of
euery
man
as
they
lyst
them selfe
and
none
durst
saye
nay
.
For
and
they
hadde

incontynent
they
shulde
haue
bene
slayne
/
and
borne
in

.
howe
they
had
bene
traytours
to
the
good
towne
of
Gaunt
/
and
loued
nat
the
welthe
/
honoure
/
nor
profyte
therof
.
Thus
the
knaues
and
yuell
dysposed
people
/
were
maysters
in
the
good
towne
of
Gaunt
.
And
so
contynued
/
as
long
as
the
warre
was
bytwene
them
and
the
erle
of
Flaunders
their
lorde
.
And
to
say
the
verye
trouthe
/
thoughe
the
ryche
and
noble
men
of
the
good
towne
of
Gaunt
/
were
thus
beaten
with
suche
roddes
/
ther
ought
none
to
be
so
rie
therof
.
Nor
they
coude
nat
excuse
themselfe
/
but
that
by
theyr
owne
fautes
/
they
were
cause
of
theyr
owne
trouble
/
reason
proueth
howe
.
for
whan
th
erle
of
Flaunders
sende
to
them
his
baily
/
to
haue
done
iustyce
on
certayne
rebels
/
&
euyll
disposed
people
.
They
myght
if
they
had
lyst
/
abydden
by
hym
/
and
haue
gyuen
hym
confort
in
doyng
of
iustice
/
the
whiche
they
dyd
nat.
but
it
semed
/
that
they
hadde
leauer
the
mater
had
gone
yuell
as
it
dyd
/
rather
than
well
.
And
had
rather
to
haue
warr
with
theyr
owne
lorde
than
peace
.
For
well
they
myght
knowe
/
that
if
they
had
warre
/
that
the
yuell
people
shuld
be
lordes
of
the
towne
/
and
shulde
be
theyr
maisters

and
nat
to
be
put

This
proued
well
by
John
Faucell
/
who
(
to
the
entent
to
dissymule
the
mater
)
departed
out
of
the
towne
of
Gaunte
/
and
went
and
/
dwelte
in
Heynaulte
/
wherby
he
thought
to
be
pourged
out
of
blame
/
for
the
warre
bytwene
th
erle
and
the
towne
/
thynkynge
to
beare
no
blame
of
neyther
party
.
Howe
be
it
the
matier
was
so
layde
to
his
charge
/
that
he
dyed
therby
/
whiche
was
great
domage
.
for
this
John
Faucell
was
in
his
tyme
a
right
sage
and
a
noble
wyse
man
/
but
it
is
hard
haltynge
before
lordes
and
theyr
counsayles
/
for
they
se
clerely
.
This
man
coude
well
ayde
and
counsayle
other
/
but
as
touchyng
hym selfe
/
he
coude
nat
take
the
best
waye
.
I
can
nat
say
/
whyder
he
were
culpable
or
nat
/
of
the
artycles
that
he
was
examyned
of
at
Lyle
/
by
ser
Symon
Rayn
/
but
the
knyghtes
and
yuell
fortune
turned
all
agaynst
hym
/
so
that
he
dyed
.
And
in
like
wyse
so
is
fallen
of
all
the
capitaynes
of
Gaunt
that
susteyned
the
rebellion
agaynst
theyr
lord
.
Also
it
hath
coste
syth
many
a
mans
lyfe
in
Gaunt
and
parauenture
many
a
one
/
that
were
in
no
defaulte
.
¶
Whan
Peter
du
Boyse
/
sawe
that
the
towne
of
Gaūre
dayly
enpaired
and
febled
/
as
well
in
theyr
capitayns
as
in
theyr
men
.
And
sawe
well
howe
the
riche
men
began
to
waxe
wery
/
and
were
in
mynde
to
leaue
the
warre
.
Wherfore
he
doubted
greatly
/
and
imagined
/
and
same
well
that
by
no
meanes
of
the
worlde
/
there
coude
any
peace
be
made
with
the
erle
so
that
he
shuld
besure
of
his
lyfe
.
Than
he
remembred
hym selfe
of
John
Lyon
/
who
was
his
maister
/
and
studyed
by
what
meanes
he
wrought
.
And
he
saw
well
that
he
coude
nat
do
all
thynge
alone
/
nor
that
he
had
nat
the
wytte
and
vnderstandyng
/
to
gouerne
the
hole
towne
of
Gaunte
.
Wherfore
he
thought
he
wolde
nat
haue
the
pryncypall
charge
/
but
in
all
folisshe
enterprises
he
thought
couertly
to
haue
the
study
of
them
.
Than
he
remembred
hym selfe
of
a
man
/
the
whiche
was
nat
greatly
taken
hede
of
/
in
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
he
was
a
wyse
man
/
but
his
wysdome
was
nat
knowen
/
nor
he
was
nat
taken
hede
of
/
tyll
the

day
.
He
was
called
Philip
Dartuell
/
sone
to
Jaques
Dartuell
/
who
in
his
tyme
.vii.
yere
togyder
had
the
gouernaunce
of
all
the

of
Flaunders
.
And
he
harde
Peter
du
boyse
and
John
Lion
his
maister
/
and
dyuerse
other
auncient
men
of
Gaunte
often
tymes
saye
/
that
the
countrey
of
Flaunders
was
neuer
more
loued

honored
/
and
feared
/
than
it
was
in
the
tyme
of
Jaques
Dartuell
/
the
whiche
endured
the
space
of
.vii.
yere
.
And
as
than
he
hard
dayly
the
gaū
toyse
say

howe
that
whan
Jaques
Dartuell
lyued
/
theyr
busynes
was
in
good
estate
/
for
than
they
sayd
/
they
might
haue
peace
at
their
wyls
/
&
the
erle
was
glad
whan
he
might
pardon
vs
all
.
Peter
de
Boyse
remembred
well
these
wordes
in
hym selfe
/
and
sawe
how
Jaques
Dartuel
had
a
sonne
called
Philip
/
a
right
couenable
&
gracious
man
.
And
the
quene
of
Englande
/
while
the
lay
at
Gaunt
/
during
the
sege
before
Turney
was
his
godmother
/
and
so
for
the
loue
of
her
/
he
was
named
Philyp
.
Than
Peter
de
Boyse
in
an
euenynge
came
to
this
Philip
/
who
was
abydynge
in
his
mothers
house
/
and
lyued
honestely
on
theyr
rentes
.
And
Peter
de
boyse
began
to
reason
with
hym
/
and
began
to
open
the
mater
/
wherfore
he
was
come
to
hym
/
and
sayd
thus
.
Philyp
/
if
ye
wyll
take
good
hede
to
my
wordes
/
and
beleue
my
counsayle
/
I
wyll
make
you
the
greattest
man
in
all

countie
of
Flaunders
.
Howe
can
that
be
syr
sayd
Philip.
I
shall
shewe
you
sayd
Peter
.
ye
shall
haue
the
gouernynge
and
mynistration
of
all
them
in
the
towne
of
Gaunte
.
for
we
be
nowe
in
great
necessyte
to
haue
a
souerayne
capitayne
of
good
name
and
of
good

.
And
so
by
this
meanes
your
father
Jaques
Dartuell
/
shall
ryse
agayne
in
this
towne
/
by
the
remembraunce
of
you
.
for
euery
man
saythe
/
that
syth
his

/
the
countrey
of
Flaunders
hath
nat
ben
so
loued
/
honored
/
nor
feared
/
as
it
was
while
he
lyued
.
and
I
shall
lyghtly
set
you
in
his
stede
/
if
ye
lyst
your

.
And
whan
ye
be
in
that
auctorite
/
than
ye
shall
gouerne
your selfe
by
my
counsaile
/
tyll
ye
haue
ful
vnderstandyng
of
euery
case
/
the
whiche
ye
shall
soone

.
Than
this
Philip
/
who
was
at
mannes
state
/
and
naturally
desyred
to
be
auaunced
/
honored
/
and
to
haue
more
than
he
had

answered
&
sayd
.
Peter
du
boyse
/
ye
offre
me
a
great
thynge
/
and
I
beleue
you
.
And
if
I
were
in
the
state
that
ye

I
swere
to
you
by
my
faythe
/
that
I
shulde
do
nothynge
without
your

Than
Peter
answerd
and
said
.
Howe
say
you
/
can
ye
beare
your selfe
high
and
be
cruell
amonge
the
comons
/
and
specially
in

thynges
as
we
shall
haue

.
A
man
is
nothynge
worthe
without
he
be
feared
/
doubted
/
and
some
tyme
renowmed
with
crueltie
.
Thus
must
the
flemmynges
be
gouerned
.
Amam
must
set
no
more
by
the
lyfe
of
men
/
nor
haue
no
more
pitie
therof
than
of
the
lyues
of
swalowes
or
larkes
/
the
whiche
be
taken
in

By
my
fayth
sayd
Philip
all
this
can
I
do
right
well

That
is
well
sayd
qd
Peter
.
And
I
shall
make
you
so

that
ye

be
soueraygne
aboue

And
so
therwith
he
toke
leaue
of
hym
and
departed
.
The
nyght
passed
/
the
next
daye
came

Than

&
thus
at

Of

And

He

Who

The

And
whan

Sayenge

We

Wherfore

shall

howe

.
And
so
as
than
there
were
no
mo
Wordes
.
This
knyght
straunger
for
the
loue
of
these
tydynges
that
he
had
brought
pleasaunt
to
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
and
to
the
erle
of
Cambridge
/
he
was
feasted
and
dyned
with
the
kynge
/
and
so
taried
the
space
of
.xv.
dayes
/
tyll
the
vtas
of
saynt
George
/
Where
as
the
kynge
and
his
vncles
were
.
And
thyther
was
comesyr
Robert
of
Namure
to
se
the
kyng
and
to
make
his
relef
for
that
he
helde
of
the
kynge
in
Inglande
.
Than
was
there
the
parliament
and
counsaile
assigned
to
be
at
Westm
/
I
shall
tell
you
why
/
as
well
for
the
besynes
of
Portingale
the
whiche
was
a
newe
mater
/
as
for
other
for
the
truce
was
expired
the
fyrst
day
of
June
/
and
so
there
was
a
great
counsaile
of
the
prelates
and
barones
of
England
/
howe
they
shuld
ordre
all
these
mats
.
And
so
they
were
in
mynd
to
send
the
duke
of
Lancastre
into
Portingale
/
and
some
sayd
/
it
was
a
farre
and
a
longe
voyage
to
sende
hym
thyther
.
And
if
he
went
/
they
myght
happe
to
repent
it
/
for
they
vnderstode
that
the
scottes
made
great
apparell
to
entre
in
to
England
.
And
sothan
it
was
determined
in
theyr
counsaile
/
that
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
who
knewe
well
the
marches
of
Scotland
and
the
dealyng
of
the
scottis
.
And
it
was
thought
that
they
wolde
sooner
fall
at
a
treatie
with
hym
/
rather
than
With
any
other
great
lorde
of
all
England
/
and
howe
that
the
scottes
wolde
do
more
for
hym
than
for
any
other
.
And
how
that
the
erle
of
Cambrydge
/
with
.v.
C.
speares
and
as
many
archers
shulde
goo
in
to
Portingale
.
And
if
that
the
duke
of
Lancastre
coulde
do
somoche
with
the
scottes
with
the
honour
of
the
realme
that
a
truce
might
be
had
to
endure
.iii.
yere
than
he
myght
well
go
into
Portingale
about
the
moneth
of
Auguste
or
Septembre
/
if
the
kynge
and
his
counsayle
thought
it
best
/
and
so
therby
to
enforce
the
Army
of
hys
brother
.
Also
there
was
a nother
poynt
/
Wherfore
the
duke
of
Lancastre
went
nat
out
of
Englande
/
Bicause
the
kynge
of
Englande
had
sente
certayne
messangers
with
the
duke
of
Tasson
and
the
Arche
bysshopp
of
Rauenne
to
the
kynge
of
Almayne
/
to
haue
his
syster
to
wyfe
/
orelles
to
knowe
howe
the
mater
shulde
stande
.
For
ther
had
be
longe
treatye
therof
more
than
the
space
of
a
yere
.
Of
Englande
there
was
the
bysshop
of
saynt
Dauys
/
&
syr
Symond
Burle
to
haue
a
conclusion
of
this
matier
if
they
myght
.
And
so
to
this
counsayle
accorded
the
kynge
and
all
the
lordes
.
And
so
the
parliament
brake
vp
on
this
poynt
/
and
there
were
named
and
wrytten
the
barones
and
knyghtes
that

of
Scotland
were
assembled
together
.
For
they
hadde
knowledge
how
the
duke
of
Lancastre
was
comyng
thyder
to
treat
with
them
.
wherfore
they
were
assembled
in
the
chife
towne
of
Scotland
ioynyng
to
the
fronters
of
England
.
And
ther
the
harauld
dyd
his
message
/
&
was
well
herde
at
length
/
and
he
had
aunswere
that
they
were
well
content
to
here
the
duke
speke
.
And
so
the
harauld
brought
a
salueconduct
for
the
duke
&
his
company
/
to
endure
as
longe
as
he
were
in
the
marches
/
and
comuned
togyder
.
Thus
the
harald
retourned
to
Berwyke
/
&
shewed
howe
hesped
.
And
so
the
duke
depted
fro
Berwyke
/
&
left
all
his
ꝓuision
behynd
hym
in
the
towne
/
and
so
went
to
Rosebourge
and
there
lodgyd
.
And
the
next
day
he
went
&
lodged
at
the
abbey
of
Mamos
on
the
ryuer
.
yt
was
an
abbey
that
departed
England
&
Scotland
a
sundre
.
there
the
duke
taryed
and
his
company
/
tyll
the
scottes
were
come
to
Monbanne
.iii.
lytle
myle
thens
.
&
whan
they
were
come
thyder
/
they
sent
worde
to
the
duke
.
Thus
the
treatie
began
bytwene
the
Scottes
and
Englysshmen
/
the
whiche
endured
a
.xv.
dayes
.
In
the
meane
season
whyle
this
treate
was
/
ther
fell
in
England
great
myschife
and
rebellion
of
mouyng
of
the
comon
people
.
by
which
dede
/
England
was
at
a
poynt
to
haue
ben
lost
without
recouery
.
Ther
was
neuer
realme
nor
countrey
in
so
great
aduentur
/
as
it
was
in
that
tyme
.
&
all
bycause
of
the
ease
and
ryches
that
the
comon
people
were
of
/
whiche
moued
them
to
this
rebellion
/
as
somtyme
they
dyd
in
Fraunce
/
the
which
dyd
moche
hurt
.
for
by
suche
incidentes
the
realme
of
Fraunce
hath
ben
greatly
greued
.
IT
was
a
marueylous
thing
and
of
poore
foundacion
/
that
this
myschife
began
in
Englande
.
And
to
gyue
ensample
to
all
maner
of
people
/
I
wyll
speke
therof
as
it
was
don
/
as
I
was
enfourmed
/
and
of
the
incidentes
therof
.
Ther
was
an
vsage
in
England
/
&
yet
is
in
diuerse
countreys
/
that
the
noble
men
hath
great
fraunches
ouer
the
comons
/
and
kepeth
them
in
seruage
.
that
is
to
say
/
their
tenauntes
ought
by
custome
to
laboure
the
lordes
landes
/
to
gather
and
bring
home
theyr
cornes
/
&
some
to
threshe
and
to
fanne
.
and
by
suage
to
make
theyr
hey
/
and
to
heaw
their
wood
and
bring
it
home
.
all
these
thyngꝭ
they
ought
to
do
by
seruage
.
And
ther
be
mo
of
these
people
in
Englande
/
than
in
any
other
realme
.
thus
the
noble
men
and
prelates
arre
serued
by
them
/
and
specially
in
the
countie
of
Brēdpest
/
Sussetter
/
and
Bedford
.
These
vnhappy
people
of
these
sayd
countreys
began
to
styrre
/
bycause
they
sayde
they
were
kept
in
great
seruage
.
And
in
the
begynning
of
the
worlde
/
they
sayd
ther
were
no
bonde
men
.
Wherfore
they
maynteyned
that
none
ought
to
be
bonde
/
without
he
dyd
treason
to
his
lorde
:
as
Lucifer
dyde
to
god
.
But
they
sayd
they
coude
haue
no
such
batayle
/
for
they
were
nother
angelles
nor
spirittes
:
but
men
fourmed
to
the
similytude
of
their
lordes
.
sayng
/
why
shuld
they
than
be
kept
so
vndre
lyke
bestis
?
the
which
they
sayd
they
wold
no
lengar
suffre
/
for
they
wolde
be
all
one
.
and
if
they
labored
or
dyd
any
thyng
for
theyr
lordes
/
they
wold
haue
wages
therfor
aswell
as
other
.
And
of
this
imaginacion
was
a
folisshe
preest
in
the
countie
of
Rent
/
called
Johan
Wall
/
for
the
which
folysshe
wordes
he
had
ben
thre
tymes
in
the
bysshop
of
Canterburies
prison
.
For
this
preest
vsed
often
tymes
on
the
sondayes
after

/
whanne
the
people
were
goynge
out
of

&
preche
:
and
made
the
people

and
wolde
say
thus
.
Aye

and
that
there

&
that
the

What
haue

:
or
why

We

Wherby
can

sauynge
by
that
they

they

and
we

they

and

And
by

/
that

We

And

Thus
John
Wall
sayd
on
sondayes
▪
whan
the
people
issued
out
of
the
churches
in
the
vyllages
.
Wherfore
many
of
the
meane
people
loued
him
/
&
suche
as
entended
to
no
goodnesse
sayde
/
howe
he
sayd
trouth
.
and
so
they
wolde
murmure
one
with
another
in
the
feldes
and
in
the
wayes
/
as
they
went
togyder
.
Affermyng
/
howe
Johan
Wall
sayd
trouthe
.
The
archebysshoppe
of
Canterbury
/
who
was
enformed
of
the
sayeng
of
this
John
Wall
/
caused
hym
to
be
taken
and
put
in
prison
/
a
two
or
thre
monethes
to
chastice
hym
.
Howbeit
/
it
had
ben
moche
better
at
the
begynnyng
/
that
he
had
ben
condempned
to
perpetuall
prison
/
or
els
to
haue
dyed
.
rather
than
to
haue
suffred
hym
to
haue
ben
agayne
delyuered
out
of
prisone
/
but
the
bysshop
had
conscience
to
let
hym
dye
.
And
whan
this
Johan
Wall
was
out
of
prison
he
retourned
agayn
to
his
errour
/
as
he
dyde
before
.
Of
his
wordes
and
dedes
there
were
moche
people
in
London
enformed
/
suche
as
had
great
enuy
at
them
that
were
riche
/
and
suche
as
were
noble
.
And
than
they
beganne
to
speke
among
them
&
sayd
.
Howe
the
realme
of
Englande
was
right
euyll
gouerned
/
and
how
that
golde
&
syluer
was
taken
fro
them
/
by
theym
that
were
named
noble
men
.
So
thus
these
vnhappy
men
of
London
began
to
rebell
and
assembled
them
togyder
/
and
sent
worde
to
the
forsayd
countreys
/
that
they
shulde
come
to
London
/
and
bring
theyr
people
with
them
.
Promisyng
them
/
howe
they
shulde
fynde
London
open
to
receyue
them
/
and
the
comons
of
the
cytie
to
be
of
the
same
acorde
.
sayeng
/
how
they
wolde
do
so
moche
to
the
kynge
/
that
there
shulde
nat
be
one
bondman
in
all
Englande
.
THis
promise
moued
so
them
of
Kent
/
of
Essex
/
of
Sussex
/
of
Bedforde
/
and
of
of
the
countreis
about
/
that
they
rose
and
came
towardes
London
/
to
the
nombre
of
.
l●
.
thousande
.
And
they
had
a
capitayne
/
called
Water
Tyler
/
and
with
him
in
company
was
Jaques
Strawe
and
Johan
Balle
.
These
thre
were
chefe
soueraygne
capitayns
/
but
the
heed
of
all
was
Water
Tyler
/
and
he
was
in
dede
a
tyler
of
houses
/
an
vngracious
patron
.
Whan
these
vnhappy
men
began
thus
to
styre
/
they
of
London
/
except
suche
as
were
of
theyr
bande
/
were
greatly
afrayed
.
Than
the
mayre
of
London
and
the
riche
men
of
the
cytie
/
toke
counsayle
togyder
.
And
whan
they
sawe
the
people
thus
comynge
on
euery
syde
/
they
caused
the
gates
of
the
cite
to
be
closed
/
and
wolde
suffre
no
man
to
entre
in
to
the
cytie
.
But
whan
they
hadde
well
imagyned
/
they
aduysed
nat
so
to
do
.
For
they
thought
they
shulde
therby
/
put
their
subbarbes
in
great
parell
to
be
brent
.
And
so
they
opened
agayne
the
cytie
/
and
there
entred
in
at
the
gates
/
In
some
place
a
hundred
/
two
hundred
/
bytwentie
/
and
by
.xxx.
And
so
whan
they
came
to
London
they
entred
and
lodged
.
And
yet
of
trouthe
/
the
thirde
parte
of
these
people
/
coude
nat
tell
what
to
aske
or
demaunde
/
but
folowed
eche
other
lyke
beestes
/
as
the
shepherdes
dyde
of
olde
tyme
.
Sayeng
/
howe
they
wolde
go
conquere
the
holy
lande
/
and
at
last
all
came
to
nothynge
.
In
lykewise
these
villayns
and
poore
people
came
to
London
a
hundred
myle
of
.lx.
myle
.l.
myle
.xl.
myle
/
and
.xx.
myle
of
/
and
fro
all
countreis
about
London
.
but
the
moost
part
came
fro
the
countreis
beforenamed
/
and
as
they
came
/
they
demaunded
euer
for
the
kyng
.
The
gentylmen
of
the
countreis
knightes
and
squyers
began
to
doute
/
whan
they
sawe
the
people
began
to
rebell
/
and
though
they
were
in
dout
/
it
was
good
reason
.
For
a
lesse
occasyon
/
they
might
haue
bene
afrayed
.
So
the
gentylmen
drewe
toguyder
aswell
as
they
might
.
¶
The
same
daye
that
these
vnhappy
people
of
Kent
were
comynge
to
London
/
there
retourned
fro
Canterbury
the
kynges
mother
princes
of
Wales
/
comynge
from
her
pylgrimage
.
She
was
in
great
ieopardy
to
haue
ben
lost
/
for
these
people
came
to
her
chare
and
delt
rudely
with
her
.
Wherof
the
good
lady
was
in
great
doute
/
lest
they
wolde
haue
done
some
vilany
to
her
/
or
to
her
damosels
.
Howe
be
it
god
kept
her
/
and
she
came
in
one
day
fro
Caunterbury
to
London
/
for
she
neuer
durst
tary
by
the

.
The
same
tyme
kyng

her

was

There

Who
were
in

of
these
people
that
thus
gadered
toguyder

This

was
well

But
the

dyde
prouyde
no

And
to

went
to
Blackeheth
/
where
he
had
left
mo
than
threscore
thousande
men

and
ther
he
answered
them
that
the
next
mornynge
they
shulde
sende
some
of
their
counsayle
to
the
Thames
/
and
ther
the

wolde
come

This
answere
greatlye
pleased
theym

and
so
passed
that
night
as
well
as
they
might
.
And
the
fourthe
part
of
them
fasted
for
lacke
of
vitayle
/
for
they
had
none
.
Wherwith
they
were
sore
displeased
/
whiche
was
good
reason
.
ALl
this
season
th
erle
of
Buckynghame
was
in
Wales
/
for
there
he
had
fayre
herytages
by
reason
of
his
wyfe
/
who
was
doughter
to
the

the

howe

And
some
sayd
certaynlye
/
howe
they
had
sene
hym
there
amonge

And
all
was

bycause
there

Thomas

a
man
of
the
countie
of
Cambridge
/
that
was
very
lyke

Also

Portyngale
/
were
well
infourmed
of
this
rebellyon
/

of
the
people
that
thus
began
to
ryse
.
Wherfore
they
douted
lest
their
vyage
shulde
haue
bene
broken
/
or
els
they
feared
lest
the
comons
about
Hampton
/
Wynchestre
/
and
Arundell
/
wolde
haue
come
on
them
.
Wherfore
they
wayed
vp
their

yssued
out

For

Howe

howe
the
comen
people
in
euery

agaynst
the
noble

wherfore
the
scottes
thought
that
Englande

in
great
daunger

therfore
in

they
were

And
whan
they

they
beganne
to

and
made
suche
a
crye
:
as
though
all
the
deuylles
of

and
they
had
brought
with

sir

to

that
if

they
wolde

&
so
they
had
promysed
hym
.
And
whan
the
kynge
&
his
lordes
sawe
the
demeanour
of
the
people
.
The
best
assured
of
them
were
in

.
And
so
the
kynge
was
counsayled
by
his
barownes
nat
to
take
any
landynge
there
/
but
so
rowed
vp

downe

And
the

demaunded
of

what
they
wolde

And

we

Than

Sirs

And
so
with

wordes
no

And
than
the
kyng
was
counsayled
to
returne
agayne
to
the
towre
of
London
:
and
so
he
dyde
.
And
whan
these
people
sawe
that

they
were
enflamed
with

/
and
retourned
to
the

where
the

And
ther
shewed
them
what
answere
they
had

and
howe
the
kynge
was
retourned

Than
they
cryed
all
with
one
voyce
.
Let

go
to
London
/
and
so
they
toke
their
way
thyder
.
And
in
their
goyng
/
they
beate
downe
abbeyes
and
houses
of
aduocates
/
&
of
men
of
the
court
and
so
came
in
to
the
subbarbes
of
London
/
whiche
were
great
and
fayre
/
and
ther
bete
downe
dyuers
fayre
houses

And
specially
they
brake
vp

kynges
prisones

as
the
Marshalse
and
other
/
and
delyuered
out
all
the
prisoners
that

:
and
there
they
dyde
moche
hurt
.
And
at
the
bridge
fote
they
thret
them
of
London
/
bycause
the
gates
of
the

were

Sayenge

howe
they

and

brenne
all
the
commons
of
the

.
There
were
many
within
the
cytie
of
their
accorde
/
and
so
they
drewe
toguyder
/
and
sayde
.
Why
do
we
nat
let
these
good
people
entre
in
to
the
cyte
/
they
are
our
felowes
:
and
that
that
they
do
is
for

.
So
therwith
the
gates
were
opyned

and
than
these
people
entred
in
to
the
cytie
and
went
in
to
houses

and
satte
downe
to
eate
and
drinke

They
desyred
nothynge

manne
was
redy
to
make
them
good
chere
:
and
to
gyue
them
meate
and
drinke
to
apease
them
.
Than
the
capitayns
:
as
John
Ball
/
Jacke
Strawe
and
Watte
Tyler
wente
through
out
London
/
and
a
twentie
thousande
with
them
.
and
so
came
to
the
Sauoy
/
in
the
way
to
Westmynster
/
whiche
was
a
goodlye
house
/
and
it
perteyned
to
the
duke
of
Lancastre
.
and
whan
they
entred
/
they
slewe
the
kepars
therof
/
and
robbed
and
pylled
the
house
.
And
whan
they
had
so
done
/
than
they
sette
fyre
on
it
/
and
clene
distroyed
and
brent
it
.
and
whan
they
had
done
that
outrage
/
they
left
nat
therwith
/
but
went
streight
to
the
fayre
hospytalle
of
the
Rodes
/
called
saynt
Johans
.
and
there
they
brente
house
/
hospytall
/
mynster
and
all
.
Than
they
went
fro
strete
to
strete
/
&
slewe
all
the
flemmynges
that
they
coulde
fynde
/
in
churche
or
in
any
other
place
/
ther
was
none
respyted
fro
dethe
.
and
they
brake
vp
dyuers
houses
of
the
lombardes
and
robbed
theym
/
&
toke
their
goodes
at
their
pleasure
:
For
there
was
none
that
durst
saye
them
nay
.
And
they
slewe
in
the
cytie
a
riche
marchaunt
/
called
Richarde
Lyon
:
to
whome
before
that
tyme
/
Watte
Tyler
had
done
seruyce
in
Fraunce
.
And
on
a
tyme
this
Rycharde
Lyon
had
beaten
hym
whyle
he
was
his
varlet
.
the
whiche
Watte
Tyler
than
remembred
/
and
so
came
to
his
house
&
strake
of
his
heed
.
and
caused
it
to
be
borne
on
a
spere
poynt
before
him
all
about
the
cyte
.
Thus
these
vngracyous
people
demeaned
them selfe
/
lyke
people
enraged
and
wode
.
and
so
that
day
they
dyde
moche
sorowe
in
London
.
ANd
so
agaynst
night
/
they
wente
to

Sayenge

tyll
they

And
tyll
he

accorded
to

/
all
that
they
wolde
aske
acomptes
/
of
the
chauncellour
of
Englande
.
to
knowe
where
all
the
good
was
become
/
that
he
had
leuyed
through
the
realme
.
and
without
he
made
a
good
acompte
to
them
therof
/
it
shulde
nat
before
his
profyte
.
And
so
whan
they
had
done
all
these
yuels
to
the
straungers
all
the
day
/
at
night
they
lodged
before
the
towre
.
YE
may
well
knowe
and
beleue
/
that
it
was
great
pytie
/
for
the
daunger
that
the
kyng
/
and
suche
as
were
with
him
were
in
.
Forsome
tyme
these
vnhappy
people
showTed
and
cryed
so
loude
/
as
thoughe
all
the
deuylles
of
hell
had
bene
among
them
.
In
this
euennynge
/
the
kynge
was
counsayled
by
his
bretherne
and
lordes
/
and
by
sir
Nicholas
walworthe
mayre
of
London
/
and
dyuers
other
no

.
that
in

tyme
they
shulde
issue
out
of
the

and
entre
into

/
and
so
to
slee
all
these
vnhappy

/
whyle
they
were
at
their

For
it
was
thought
that
many
of

were
dronken
/
wherby
they
shulde
be
slayne
lyke
flees
.
Also
of
twentie
of

/
ther

scant
one
in

.
And
surely
the
good
men
of
London
might
well
haue
done
this
at
their
ease
/
for
they
had
in
their
houses
secretely
/
their

.
And

In

In

ryse
also
.
and
the

before
were
a

Than
the

and
the

about

WHan

And

So

A

Sirs

Withdrawe

shall
haue
with

conteyning
euery
thynge
that

And
to
th

that

I
shall
cause

These

apeased

suche

and
good

men
/
that
were
come

They

Thus
these

beganne
to

and
began

And

They
all
answered
how
they
wolde
so
do

thus
these
people
departed
and
went

London
.
Than
the

For

yet
they
wolde

and

So

and
made
no
prese

writyng
nor

/
for
all
their

all

honest
persons

&
to
robbe
and
pylle

They
of

were
in
great
feare
of

wherfore
they
kepte
their
houses
preuily
with
their
frendes
/
and
suche
seruauntes
as
they

euery
man
accordynge

And
whanne
these
sayde
people
were

thus
somewhat
apeased

shulde
departe
assoone
as
they
hadde

euerye

Than
kynge
Rycharde
came
in

where
the

his
Mother
was
●●ght
sore
afrayed
.
So
he
conforted
her
as
well
as
he
coulde
/
and
taryed
there
with
her
all
that
night
.
YEt
I
shall
shewe
you
of
an
aduenture
that
fell
by
these
vngracyous
people
/
before
the
cyte
of
Norwiche
/
by
a
capitayne
among
them
:
called
Guillyam
Lystre
of
Stufforde
.
THe
same
daye
of
Corpus
Christy
/
that
these
people
entred
in
to
London
and
brent
the
duke
of
Lancasters
house
/
called
the
Sauoye
:
&
the
Hospytall
of
saynt
Johannes
/
and
brake
vp
the
kynges
prisons
.
And
dyd
all
this
hurte
(
as
ye
haue
herde
before
)
The
same
tyme
there
assembled
toguyder
:
they
of
Stafforde
/
of
Lynne
/
of
Cambridge
/
of
Bedforde
/
and
of
Germeney
.
And
as
they
were
comynge
towardes
London
/
they
hadde
a
capitayne
amonge
them
/
called
Lystre
.
And
as
they
came
they
rested
them
before
Norwiche
.
and
in
their
comynge
/
they
caused
euerye
man
to
ryse
with
them
/
so
that
they
left
no
villayns
behynde
them
.
The
cause
why
they
rested
before
Norwyche
/
I
shall
shewe
you
.
There
was
a
knight
capitayne
of
the
towne
/
called
sir
Robert
Sale
.
He
was
no
gentylman
borne
/
but
he
had
the
grace
to
be
reputed
sage
/
and
valyant
in
armes
.
And
for
his
valyauntnesse
/
kynge
Edwarde
made
hym
knight
.
He
was
of
his
body
/
one
of
the
biggest
knightes
in
all
Englande
.
Lyster
and
his
company
thought
to
haue
had
this
knyght
with
them
/
and
to
make
hym
their
chife
capitayne
/
to
the
entente
to
be
the
more
feared
and
beloued
.
So
they
sende
to
hym
/
that
he
shulde
come
and
speke
with
them
in
the
felde
/
or
els
they
wolde
brenne
the
towne
.
The
knight
consydered
/
that
it
was
better
for
hym
to
go
&
speke
with
them
/
rather
thanne
they
shulde
do
that
outrage
to
the
towne
.
than
he
mounted
on
his
horse
and
yssued
oute
of
the
towne
all
alone
/
and
so
came
to
speke
with
them
.
And
whan
they
sawe
hym
/
they
made
him
gret
chere
and
honoured
hym
moche
.
desyring
hym
to
a
lyght
of
his
horse
and
to
speke
with
theym
/
and
so
he
dyde
/
wherin
he
dyde
great
folly
.
For
whanne
he
was
a
lyghted
/
they
came
rounde
about
hym
/
and
began
to
speke
fayre
to
hym
and
sayde
.
Sir
Robert
/
ye
are
a
knight
and
a
man
greatlye
beloued
in
this
countrey
/
and
renowmed
a
valyaunt
man
.
And
thoughe
ye
be
thus
/
yet
we
knowe
you
well
:
ye
be
no
gentylmanne
borne
/
but
sonne
to
a
villayne
suche
as
we
be
.
Therfore
come
you
with
vs
and
be
our
maister
/
and
we
shall
make
you
so
great
a
lord
/
that
one
quarter
of
Englande
shal
be
vnder
your
obeysaunce
.
Whan
the
knight
herde
them
speke
thus
it
was
greatlye
contraryous
to
his
mynde
/
for
he
thought
neuer
to
make
any
suche
bargayne
/
and
answered
them
with
a
felonous
regarde
.
Flye
away
ye
vngracyous
people
/
false
and
yuell
traytours
that
ye
be
.
Wolde
you
that
I
shuld
forsake
my
naturall
lorde
/
for
suche
a
company
of
knaues
as
ye
be
/
to
my
dishonoure
for
euer
.
I
had
rather
ye
were
all
hanged
as
ye
shall
be
:
for
that
shall
be
your
ende
.
And
with
those
wordes
he
had
thought
to
haue
lepte
agayne
vpon
his
horse
/
but
he
fayled
of
the
styrroppe
:
and
the
horse
sterted
away
.
Than
they
cryed
all
at
him
and
sayde
/
slee
hym
without
mercy
.
Whan
he
herd
those
wordes
/
he
let
his
horse
go
and
drue
out
a
good
swerde
/
&
began
to
scrimysshe
with
them
/
and
made
a
great
place
about
hym
/
that
it
was
pleasur
to
beholde
him
.
Ther
was
non
that
durst
aproche
nere
hym
.
Ther
were
some
that
aproched
nere
hym

Ther

He

This

For

And

¶
The

And

For

And

And

these

Therfore

And

For

To

And
therwith

For

And

The
lordes
that

taried
also
/
as

And
whan
Watte

Syrs

And

/
and
he
hadde

And

/
so

In

With

caste

on
a
squyer
/
that
was
there
with
the
kynge
/
bearynge
the
kynges
swerde
.
and
Wat

hated
greatlye
the

.
for
the

/
for

bytwene

Wherfore

The

and
sayd

lette

And
so
the
squyer
toke

sore
agaynst

And
whan
this
Watte
Tyler
had
it
/
he
began
to

/
and
tourned

in
his
hande
:
and
sayde
agayne

Naye
sayde

And

.
By
my
faythe
sayd
Wat

I

And
with
those
wordes
the
mayre
of
London
came
to
the
kynge
with
a
.xii.
horses
well
armed
vnder
theyr
cootes
/
and
so
he
brake
the
prease
/
And
sawe
and
harde
howe
Watte
Tyler
demeaned
hym selfe
/
and
sayde
to
hym
.
Ha
thou

/
howe
arte

so
hardy
in
the
kynges
presence
to

.
It
is
to
moche
for
the
so
to

.
Than
the
kynge
began
to
chafe
/
and
sayd
to
the
mayre
.
Sette
handes
on
hym
.
And
while
the
kynge
sayde
so
/
Tyler
sayd
to
the
mayre
/
A

I
sayde

lorde
?
I
commytte
neuer

without

.
And
with
those
wordes
the
mayre
drewe
oute
his
swerde
and
strake
Tyler
/
so
great
a
stroke
on
the
heed
/
that
he
fell
downe
at
the
feete
of

.
And
as
soone
as
he
was
fallen
/
they
enuironed
hym
all
aboute

wherby
he
was
nat
sene
of

Than
a

Standysshe
/
&
he
drewe
out

sworde
and
put
it
in

and
so

Than
the

And
therwith
they
araynged
them selfe
on
the
place
in
maner
of
batayle
/
and
theyr

Thus
the
kynge
beganne
a
great
outrage
/
howe
be
it
all
turned
to
the
beste
.
for
as
soone
as

departed
from

Syrs

And

and
sawe

were

But

euyll

wolde

but
made
semblant
as

Than
the

returned
to

and
demaunded
of

to

done
.
Than

for

Than

Than

Roseburge
/
and
there
he
was
receyued
of

for
whan

passed
he
set

Then
the

bycause

And

and
whan

Assone

and
so
came

C.

And
on

And

tyll
they
came

the
cite
of
Edenbourge

wher
as
the
kynge
of
scottes

And
for
the
moost
parte
euer

There
the

but
that
was
nat
so

Than
it

the
yuelles
of
these
vnhappy
people
howe
in
malyce
and
hatered
they
spake
of
this

without

.
The
voyce
and
brute
ran
about
in
Englande
/
the
tyme
of
this
rebellyon
/
Howe
that
the

of

But

sowed
abrode

That
is

:
Lyster

These

souerayne
capitayns

for
in
fyue
partis
of

gouernours
.
And
specially
they
had
in
hatered
the
duke
of
Lancastre
/
and
that
they
well
shewed
.
For
at
their
first
entryng
in

London
/
they
brent
his
house
of
the
Sauoy
/
clene
to
the
erthe
.
And
besyde
y●
/
they
had
sprede
abrode
in
England
by
their
false
wordes
/
howe
the

and
in
dyuers
placis
they
turned

vp
so
downe
lyke

derely
bought

NOwe

of

/
Watte
Tyler
/
Jacke

Than
the

And

Than

And

And

And

These

In

And

So

and
at

And
so
sayled

and
entred

of
Portyngale
/

But
than

there

whanne

‛
NOwe
lette

ther
was

no

done
there
.
and
lette
vs
nowe
speke
of
the
busynesse
that
was
in
Flaunders
the
same
season
.
IN
this
season
while
all
this
busynesse
was
in
England
/
the
warres
of
Flanders
was
nat
in
rest
/
bytwene
the
erle
and
the
gauntoyse
(
ye
haue
herde
here
before
)
how
Philyppe
Dartuell
was
chosen
as
souerayne
capitayne
of
Gaunt
/
by
the
oppynyon
of
Peter
de
Boyse
/
who
counsayled
hym
to
take
on
hym
the
offyce
/
and
to
be
cruell
.
To
the
entent
to
be
the
more
feared
.
Philyppe
folowed
after
his
scole
and
doctryne
/
for
he
had
nat
bene
long
in
offyce
/
whan
he
caused
.xii.
heedes
to
be
strykenne
of
before
hym
.
And
some
sayde
/
they
were
those
/
that
principally
were
causers
of
the
dethe
of
his
father
.
and
so
than
he
reuenged
his
cause
.
¶
This
Philyppe
Dartuell
beganne
to
raygne
in
great
puyssaunce
/
and
was
greatly
feared
and
beloued
/
&
specially
of
suche
as
folowed
warre
.
And
to
wynne
their
fauoure
and
loue
/
he
spared
nothynge
:
but
abandoned
euery
thynge
to
them
.
It
might
be
demaunded
howe
they
of
Gaunt
made
their
warre
?
I
wyll
aunswere
therto
/
acordynge
as
I
haue
herde
.
Of
very
necessyte
/
accordynge
to
their
quantyties
:
they
euer
supported
the
poore
.
And
so
by
reason
of
the
vnyte
amonge
theym
/
they
endured
in
great
puyssaunce
.
And
all
thynges
consydred
/
Gaunt
is
one
of
the
moost
strongest
townes
of
the
worlde
.
So
that
Brabant
/
Holande
and
zelande
/
make
them
no
warre
.
But
if
those
thre
countreis
with
Flaunders
make
warre
to
them
/
than
they
be
enclosed
and
likely
to
be
lost
and
famysshed
.
And
these
thre
countreis
made
no
warr
with
them
/
wherfore
they
endured
the
lengar
.
In
this
season
/
whyle
that
Philyppe
Dartuell
was
made
newe
offycer
.
The
alderman
of
the
wayuers
was
accused
of
trayson
/
&
sette
in
prison
.
And
to
proue
the
trouthe
in
that
he
was
accused
/
they
went
to
his
house
/
&
founde
there
certayne
poudre
of
Saltpeter
/
wherwith
he
had
done
no
helpe
to
the
towne
at
siege
/
nor
otherwyse
/
of
all
the
hole
yere
passed
.
Wherfore
he
was
beheeded
/
&
drawen
through
the
towne
lyke
a
traytour
:
to
gyue
ensample
to
all
other
.
Than
the
erle
of
Flaunders
determyned
to
lay
siege
to
Gaunt
/
and
so
he
made
a
great
somons
of
lordes
/
knyghtes
/
and
squyers
:
and
men
of
good
townes
.
And
he
sende
to
Malynes
/
from
whens
he
had
moche
people
.
Also
he
sende
for
his
cosyns
/
sir
Robert
of
Namure
and
sir
Wyllyam
.
and
out
of
Arthoise
ther
came
moche
people
to
him
.
And
the
countesse
of
Arthoise
his
mother
/
was
as
than
newely
departed
this
lyfe
.
TO
this
assemble
there
came
the
lorde
Dampiers
/
with
a
great
company
of
knightes
and
squyers
of
the
countie
of
Heynalt
.
And
so
therie
went
and
layde
siege
to
Gaunt
/
on
the
syde
towarde
Bruges
and
towarde
Heynalte
.
&
whyle
this
siege
endured
/
there
was
many
a
scrymisshe
/
and
somtyme
a
sorte
of
wyght
companyons
wolde
yssue
out
of
Gaunt
.
Somtyme
they
were
driued
home
agayne
to
their
losse
/
&
sometyme
they
wan
.
And
in
this
season
he
that
dyde
moost
dedes
of
armes
and
was
moost
renomed
/
was
the
yong
lorde
of
Danghien
.
And
moost
commonly
all
lustye
companyons
/
suche
as
sought
for
dedes
of
armes
/
wolde
be
euer
in
his
companye
.
And
in
this
season
/
the
lorde
of
Danghien
with
foure
thousande
horse
men
besyde
fote
men
/
wente
and
layde
siege
before
the
towne
of
Grauntmont
/
the
which
as
than
was
gauntoyse
.
Before
that
tyme
/
the
sayd
lorde
had
bene
there
/
and
traueyled
and
haryed
them
sore
:
but
nothynge
conquered
.
But
at
this
tyme
/
he
came
puissantly
and
in
good
order
/
and
on
a
son
day
he
sauted
the
towne
/
in
mo
than
.xl.
places
.
And
was
at
the
saute
hym selfe
/
and
sette
forthe
first
his
owne
baner
.
This
was
so
gret
assaute
and
so
well
contynued
on
euery
syde
/
that
about
the
houre
of
noone
/
it
was
taken
and
conquered
.
And
than
entred
in
at
the
gates
/
the
lorde
of
Danghien
and
his
company
.
And
whan
they
of
the
towne
sawe
/
that
their
towne
was
lost
without
recouery
/
they
fledde
out
at
the
gates
/
wher
as
none
of
their
enemyes
were
.
and
so
euery
man
saued
hym selfe
that
myght
.
There
was
great
murdre
/
of
men
/
women
/
and
chyldren
:
for
ther
was
none
taken
to
mercy
.
Ther
were
mo
than
v.
C.
men
of
the
towne
slayne
/
and
a
great
nombre
of
olde
people
men
and
women
brent
/
lyeng
in
their

/
whiche
was
great
pytie
.
For
they
sette
fyre
in
the

/
in
mo
than
thre
hundred
places
/
wherby
the
hole
towne
was
brent
churches
and
all
:
nothynge
left
hole
.
Thus
Grauntmont
was
prosecuted
and
put
to
fyre
and
flame
than
the
lorde
Danghien
retourned
in
to
thost
to
the
Erle
of
Flaunders
/
who
gaue
hym
great
thanke
for
his
dede
/
and
sayde
.
Fayre
sonne
/
ye
are
a
valyant
man
/
and
shall
be
if
god
be
pleased
a
good
knight
/
for
yehaue
a
gode
begining
.
AFter
the
distructyon
thus
of
the
towne
of
Grauntmont
/
on
a
sonday
/
in
the
monethe
of
June
/
whyle
the
siege
lay
stylle
before
Gaunt
.
This
lorde
of
Danghien
/
called
Water
:
wolde
neuer
lye
in
rest
in
his
lodgyng
/
but
euery
day
sought
for
aduentures
.
Some
day
with
a
great
nombre
and
some
daye
with
so
fewe
/
that
he
durst
nat
parceyuer
in
his
enterprise
.
So
that
nere
euery
day
/
there
was
by
hym
or
by
the
Hase
of
Flaunders
/
done
some
aduenture
.
And
so
it
fortuned
/
that
on
a
tuesday
in
the
mornyng
/
the
lorde
Danghien
was
yssued
out
of
his
logyng
and
the
lorde
of
Montigny
in
his
company
/
ser
Mychell
of
Hamsede
his
cosyn
/
&
the
bastarde
of
Danghien
his
brother
.
Julyen
of
Toyson
/
Hutyn
Donay
/
and
dyuers
other
.
They
went
to
scrimisshe
before
Gaunt
(
as
they
were
wont
to
do
)
&
aduentured
themselve
so
farre
/
that
they
toke
no
good
therby
.
For
they
of
Gaunt
hadde
layde
a
sore
busshment
before
their
towne
/
mo
than
a
hundred
pykes
.
And
some
sayd
there
was
in
this
busshment
/
suche
as
had
fledde
fro
grauntmont
:
whan
it
was
wonne
.
Their
entente
was
set
on
nothyng
els
/
but
howe
they
might
trap
the
lorde
Danghien
/
to
be
reuenged
on
hym
/
for
the
domage
that
he
had
done
to
them
.
They
thought
euer
that
he
was
free
and
hardy
/
and
wolde
aduenture
him selfe
largely
.
And
as
they
thought
so
it
came
to
passe
/
whiche
was
more
pyte
.
The
lorde
Danghien
and
his
rout
/
toke
no
hede
tyll
they
were
enclosed
with
the
gauntoyse
/
who
escryed
them
to
dethe
.
Than
the
lorde
Danghyen
demaunded
counsayle
of
the
lorde
of
Montigny
who
was
by
hym
.
Than
sir
Eustace
Montigny
answered
/
and
sayd
.
It
is
nowe
to
late
to
take
counsayle
.
let
vs
defend
our selfe
/
&
sell
our
lyues
derely
or
we
dye
:
there
is
none
other
remedy
.
Than
these
knyghtis
made
the
signe
of
the
crosse
before
them
/
and
recommended
them selfe
to
god
and
to
saynt
George
.
And
so
entred
in
amonge
their
enemies
/
for
they
coude
nat
flye
/
they
wer
so
forwarde
in
the
enbusshe
.
And
so
there
they
dyde
dedes
of
armes
as
well
as
they
might
:
but
they
coude
nat
longe
endure
/
for
their
enemyes
were
a
hundred
agaynst
one
.
And
a
great
nombre
of
long
pykes
/
wherwith
the
gauntoise
gaue
great
strokes
and
peryllous
/
as
it
well
apered
.
Ther
was
the
lorde
Danghien
slayne
/
and
by
hym
his
bastarde
brother
/
and
Gyles
of
Toyson
/
and
dyuers
other
valyant
knightis
of
Haynalte
.
And
the
lorde
of
Montigny
saynt
Christophe
/
and
sir
Michell
of
Hamsede
sore
hurte
.
And
he
had
ben
slayne
without
doute
/
and
Hutyn
Donay
/
by
force
of
armes
/
hadde
nat
saued
hym
.
And
yet
he
had
moche
payne
to
saue
him
.
Howe
be
it
/
in
the
meane
tyme
that
the
gauntois
were
about
to
dysarme
the
knyghtes
that
they
had
slayne
/
to
the
entent
to
beare
them
into
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
For
they
knewe
well
they
had
slayne
the

Danghien
/
wherof
they
hadde

.
In
the
meane
tyme

Hutyn
Donay
brought

¶
Thus
this
iourney
fortuned
agaynst
the
lorde
Danghien
.
It
is
nat
to
be
douted
/
but
that
the
Erle
of
Flaunders
had
for
his

great

/
the
whiche
he
well
shewed
/
bycause
:
for
the
loue
of
him
he
brake

.
And
night
and

And

was
brought
in

and
so
was

Than
Peter

And

Than
thyder
came
Peter

And
whanne
they
were

Than
the

so
he
was
sent
for
/
but
he
excused
himselfe

bycause
he
was
sicke

nat
well

Saye
what
ye
wyll
qd
Peter

for
I
am
here

.
Here
beynowe
:
let
vs
here
what
they
wyll
say
/
that
hath
bene
at
Harlequebecke
.
Than
there
rose
vp
two
of
the
notablest
men
of
the
companye
/
Gylbert
Gente
and
Symone
Bette
:
and
one
of
them
sayde
.
Lordes
of
Gaunt
/
we
haue
bene
at
the
parlyament
at
Harlequebecke
/
and
haue
had
moche
payne
and
traueyle
.
And
also
/
so
had
the
good
men
of
Brabant
/
of
Liege

and
of
Heynalte
/
to
make
acorde
and
agrement
/
bytwene
oure

of
Flaunders
and
vs
of
Gaunte

Finally
at
their
requestes
/
and
by
the
helpe
of
my
lady
of
Brabant
/
who
sent
thyder
her
counsayle
/
and
the
duke
Aubert
his
.
So
that
by
their
meanes
the
good
towne
of
Gaunt
is
come
to
a
peace
and
to
agrement
/
with
oure
lorde
the
erle
.
In
this
maner
/
that
two
hundred
men
of
ours
/
suche
as
he
shall
sende
vs
their
names
in
writyng
.
within
fyftene
dayes
we
must
sende
them
into
the
erles
prison
at
Lysle
/
to
put
theym
clerely
to
his
mercy
and
pleasure
.
He
is
so
free
and
so
noble
/
that
it
is
no
doute
/
but
that
he
wyll
haue
mercy
on
theym
.
With
those
wordes
Peter
de
Boyse
stepte
for
the
/
and
sayde
.
Gylbert
Gente
/
howe
durste
you
be
so
bolde
to
make
suche
agrement
/
as
to
sende
two
hundred
of
oure
men
of
Gaunte
/
in
to
the
towne
of
oure
enemye
/
in
great
rebuke
and
shame
/
to
all
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
It
were
better
Gaunte
were
turned
vp
so
downe
/
than
they
of
Gaunt
shulde
haue
suche
reproche
:
as
to
make
warre
&
ende
it
so
shamefully
.
We
that
haue
herde
you
/
may
well
knowe
/
that
ye
shall
be
none
of
the
two
hundred
prisoners
/
nor
also
Symon
Bet.
ye
haue
chosen
for
youre selfe
/
nowe
than
we
wyll
chose
for
ourselfe
.
On
for
the
Philyppe
Dartuell
/
set
handes
on
these
false
traytours
/
that
wolde
betray
and
dyshonour
the
towne
of
Gaunt
.
Ther
with
Peter
de
Boyse
drewe
oute
his
dagger
/
&
came
to
Gylbert
Gent
/
and
strake
hym
into
the
belly
.
and
so
he
fell
downe
deed
.
And
Philyppe
Dartuell
drewe
out
his
dagger
/
and
he
strake
Symon
Bet
/
and
slewe
hym
in
lykewise
.
And
than
they
cryed
treason
treason
.
And
they
that
were
slayne
/
hadde
of
their
men
aboue
and
beneth
:
for
they
were
men
of
great
lygnage
/
and
the
richest
men
of
the
towne
:
but
they
gette
them selfe
out
of
the
towne
to
saue
them selfe
:
so
that
there
was
no
more
done
/
but
they
two
slayne
.
But
to
apease
the
people
/
and
to
bringe
them
to
their
beleue
.
They
sende
out
of
their
men
/
cryenge
and
sayenge
.
These
false
traytours
/
Gylberte
Gente
and
Symone
Bette
/
wolde
haue
betrayed
the
towne
of
Gaunte
.
Thus
the
mater
passed
/
these
two
notable
men
were
slayne
/
and
no
man
to
reuenge
them
.
And
whan
th
erle
of
Flaunders
(
beyng
at
Bruges
)
herde
of
these
tidynges
:
he
was
sore
displeased
/
and
sayd
.
At
the
desyre
of
my
cosyns
of
Brabante
/
I
lightly
agreed
to
haue
peace
with
them
of
Gaunt
.
and
nowe
and
before
this
tyme
/
they
haue
wrought
falsely
.
But
I
wyll
they
knowe
/
that
they
shall
neuer
haue
peace
agayne
with
me
:
but
I
wyll
haue
them
at
my
pleasure
.
THus
ther
was
slayne
in
the
towne
of
Gaunte
/
these
two
balyant
men
ryche
and
sage
.
They
might
eche
of
them
spende
of
their
owne
patrimony
/
two
thousande
frankes
yerelye
.
They
were
sore
be
moned
priuely
/
but
non
durst
speke
of
theym
openly
.
Thus
the
warre
was
more
feyrsare
than
it
was
before
/
for
they
of
the
garysons
about
Gaunte
/
were
night
and
day
busye
/
to
stoppe
all
prouisyon
comynge
to
Gaunt
.
So
that
they
of
Brabant
nor
of
Haynalde
/
dutst
nat
aduenture
to
bring
any
thyng
to
Gaunt
.
For
if
the
erles
men
mette
any
vitaylers
/
they
wolde
slee
their
horses
/
and
bring
them
prisoners
in
to
Ande
warpe
or
to
Teremonde
.
So
that
all
vitaylers
/
feared
the
parell
therof
.
¶
In
the
same
season
/
the
commons
of
Parys
rose
and
rebelled
agaynst
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
/
bycause
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
wolde
generally
/
reyse
vp
throughe
all
Fraunce
:
ayedes
/
fo

and
subsydes

such
as
had
rynne
in
the
dayes
of
Charles
/
father
to
the
king
as
than
.
The
parisyens
rebelled
&
sayde
.
howe
that
the
kynge
last
disceassed
/
had
quyte
them
in
his
lyfe

.
And
howe
the
kyng
his
sonne
at
his
coronacyon
at
Reynes
/
had
acorded
to
the

.
Than
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
auoyded
Parys
/
and
went
&
lay
at
Myeulx
in
Bric
As
soone
as
the
kyng
was
departed
fro
Paris
the
commons
rose
in
harnesse
/
and
slewe
all
those
that
had
ceassed
the
aydes
.
And
brake
vp
the
prisons
and
dyuers
houses
in
the
towne
/
and
robbed
&
pylled
them
:
and
toke
all
that
euer
they
founde
.
and
so
came
to
the
bysshoppe
of
Paris
house
/
&
brake
vp
his
prisons
/
&
delyuerd
Hugh
Aubert
who
hadde
bene
prouost
of
Parys
/
in
the
tyme
of
Kynge
Charles
.
Who
was
in
his
dayes
by
iust
sentence
condempned
to
prison
/
for
dyuers
yuell
dedes
that
he
hadde
done
/
and
consented
to
do
.
At
whiche
tyme
/
some
wolde
haue
hadde
hym
brent
:
but
these
parisyens
delyuered
him
.
This
happe
he
had
by
the
rebellyon
of
the
commons
/
and
so
he
departed
the
towne
assoone
as
he
myght
/
for
feare
leest
he
shulde
be
takenne
agayne
.
And
so
he
went
into
his
owne
countrey
of
Burgoyne
:
and
ther
shewed
his
frendes
all
his
aduenture
.
These
people
of
Parys
duryng
their
rebellyon
/
dyde
moche
hurte
.
But
there
were
many
good
menne
that
were
happy
/
that
they
fell
nat
to
their
rebellyon
and
company
/
for
and
they
had
/
the
mater
had
bene
moche
worse
than
it
was

Thus
the
kynge
was
at
Myeulx
and
his
thre
vncles
with
hym
:
the
duke
of
Aniowe
/
the
duke
of
Berrey
/
and
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
:
who
were
sore
dyspleased
with
this
rebellyon
.
Than
they
determyned
to
sende
thyder
the
lorde
of
Coucy
/
who
was
a
sage
knight
to
treate
with
the
commons
and
to
apease
them
for
he
coulde
do
it
better
than
any
other

¶
Howe
the
lorde
of
Coucy
apeased
the

Therfore

Shewynge

Than
they
aunswered

sayde
.
Howe
they
wolde
none
yuell
/
nor
to
haue
warre
with
the
kynge
nor

But
they
wolde
that

and
gables
/
shulde
be
layde
downe
in
all

and
that

Sayenge
/
howe
they
wolde
ayde
the
kynge
in
some

In
what
manere
quod
the
lorde

They
answered
and
sayd
.
We
wyll
be
content
to

to

apoynted
to

/
to

What
somme
wyll
ye
paye
quod
the
lorde
of
Coucye
?
Suche
somme
quod
they
/
as
we
shall
agree

.
And
so
the
lorde
of
Coucy
treated
so
the
mater
with
them
/
that
with
their
owne
good
wylles
/
they
ceased
theym selfe
to

/
a
tenne
thousande
florence
/
to
a
certayne
man
admytted
/
to
be
receyuoure
therof
.
And
so
thus
the
lorde
of
Coucy
departed
fro
them
/
and
wente
to
Myeulx
in
Brie
/
to
the
Kynge
and
to
his

/
and
shewed
them
what
he
had
done
.
Than
the
kynge
was
counsayled
for

Sayenge
/
howe
it
was
good

For
in
lykewyse
they
shulde
do
with
the
other
good
townes
in
Fraunce
.
Seynge
that
Parys
dyde
thus
begynne
.
Than
the
lorde
of
Coucy
retourned
to
Parys
/
and
brought
peace
fro
the
kyng
to
the
Parisyence
/
so
that
they
wolde
kepe
the
promyse
that
they
hadde
made
:
the
which
they
sayde
they
wolde
do
.
And
so
a
receyuer
was
apoynted
to
receyue
the
florence
euery
weke
.
so
that
the
money
shulde
nat
go
out
of
Parys

for
none
other
entent

but
to
pay
men
of

And
that

shulde
nat
be
enployed
to

vse
norprofyte

nor
to

Thus
the
mater
contynued
a
certayne
space
/
and
the
Parisyence
in
peace
/
but
the
kynge
wolde
nat
come
in
Parys
/
wher
of
the
parisyence
were
sore
displeased
.
IN
lykewise
they
of
Rohane
rebelled
/
the
common
people
rose
and
slewe
the
Cathelayne
ther
/
and
all
suche
as
had
sette
the
imposycions
/
aydes
/
and
gabelles
on

.
And
whan
the
kyng
and
his
vncles
herd
therof
/
they
were
right
sore
dyspleasedde
.
For
they
doughted
greatlye
/
that
other
Cyties
and
townes
wolde
do
in
lyke
case
.
Than
the
kynge
was
counsayled
that
he
shulde
go
to
Rohan
/
&
so
he
dyde
/
and
apeased
the
commons
there
/
and
pardoned
them
the
dethe
of
his
Chatelyne
/
and
of
all
that
they
had

And
also
they
ordayned
a
receyuour

to
whome
they
payed
euery
weke
a
certayne
somme
of
florens
.
and
so
therby
they
were
in

So
thus
ther
began
great

and
all
toke
fotynge

howe
they
of
Gaunt
were
good
people
/
and
valyant

had
sustayned
their
fraunchises
.
Wherfore
they
sayde
:
they
ought
to
be
beloued
/
praysed

and
honoured
.
IT
is
to
be
knowen
/
that
the

Aniowe
had

For
he
wrote

For

Clement
had

by

that

The

He

So

At

So

And

And

on

they

And

And
whan

And
anone

the

and
the
Englysshmen
entred

so
they
came

well

&
there
they
hewe
with

That

bycause

Thanne
they

the

for

The

And
whan

Thus
this

gyuen

and
put

englysshmen
.
And
so
the
spaynierdes

.
WHan
these
knightis
of
England
had
conquered
the
castell
of
Sigheir
they
were
right
ioyfull
/
and
so
they
repayred
it
and
lefte
therin
.xl.
of
their
company
/
and
dyd
furnyshe
it
with
artillary
&
other
purueyaunces
/
and
sette
there
a
good
capitayne
to
kepe
it
.
Than
they
counsayled
toguyder
/
what
was
best
for
them
to
do
.
And
so
they
determyned
to
go
agayne
to
their
first
lodgynges
:
and
the
englysshmen
and
gascoyns
departed
in
thre
routes
.
And
behynde
all
to
kepe
the
felde
/
abode
the
Chanoyne
Robersarde
/
and
with
hym
certayn
englysshmen
/
gascoyns
/
and
almayns
.
He
was
about
a
threscore
speares
and
as
many
archers
and
so
they
rode
all
that
day
/
&
the
seconde
day
in
the
mornyng
all
hole
toguyder
.
and
they
entred
in
to
a
great
towne
of
Portyngale
/
called
Huence
/
and
the
castell
of
Concrelet
/
was
right
without
a
wode
syde
.
In
the
which
wode
more
nere
to
Concrelet
than
to
Huence
/
was
the
maister
of
saynt
James
in
a
busshment
/
with
a
four
hundred
men
of
armes
.
And
as
soone
as
the
englysshmen
parceyued
them
/
they
drewe
all
togider
and
made
no
countenan e
of
feare
/
but
rode
forthe
a
good
pase
.
And
the
spaynierdes
for
all
their
great
nombre
made
no
semblant
to
breke
their
busshement
/
but
helde
them selfe
styll
and
close
.
for
they
beleued
that
the
englisshmen
had
nere
hande
their
great
batayle
/
&
therfore
they
durst
nat
assayle
them
.
So
thus
they
departed
eche
fro
other
/
without
any
more
doynge
.
The
spaynierdes
retourned
the
same
night
to
Esteryes
/
and
the
Chanoyne
Robersarde
to
Uesyouse
.
And
there
he
shewed
his
company
/
howe
they
had
sene
the
spagynierdes
/
bytwene
Concrelet
and
Huence
/
and
sayd
.
If
we
had
bene
all
toguyder
/
we
wolde
haue
fought
with
them
/
and
so
they
were
sorie
/
that
they
had
nat
bene
all
toguyder
.
And
whan
these
tidynges
came
to
the
knowledge
of
the
kyng
of
Portingale
/
he
made
semblant
that
he
was
dyspleased
/
bycause
they
rode
forthe
without
his
commaundement
or
ordinaunce
.
Thus
the
englysshmen
and
gascoyns
lay
styll
in
their
garysons
all
that
wynter
/
without
any
thynge
doyng
/
worthy
to
be
made
mencyon
of

the
whiche
greatly
anoyed
them
.
There
lyeng
styll

was
nat

In

shulde
come

Portyngale
/
to
the

ayde
/
in

Wherfore
/
he
desyred
the

accordynge
to

and

/
as
the
realme
of

That

sende
some
men
of

to
hym
the

/
to
the
entent
to
resyst

Than
the
french

.
For
they
sawe
well
/
howe
the

Than
it
was
ordayned

/
to
gyue

of
men
of
warre
lycence
to
go
thyder
.
And
the
kyng
delyuered
them

first
prest
money
.
So
sir
Olyuer
of
Clesquy
/
brother
to
sir
Bertram
of

constable
of
Fraunce
/
was
ordayned
to
take

And
so
dyde
knightis

/
of
Beause
/
of
Picardy
/
of
Aniowe
of
Berrey
/
of
Bloyse
/
and
of
Mayne
.
And
so
they
passed
by
companyes
to
haue
the
more
ease
/
and
their
passage
was
opyn
throughe
the
realme
of
Aragon

and
they
founde
euery

and
their

but
they
payed

thyng
they
toke

whan
they
were
abrode
in
the
countrey
/
whiche
was
great
hurte
to
the
poore
commons
.
yE
haue
herde
here
before
/
howe
kyng
Richarde
of
Englande
/
the
space
of
a
yere
/
hadde
ben
in
treatie
with
kynge
Charles
of
Almayne
.
Who
wrote
hym selfe
the
tytell
of
the
kyng
of
Rhomayns
/
to
haue
his
suster
/
the
lady
Anne
in
maryage
.
And
howe
sir
Symon
Burle
had
sore
traueyled
in
that
mater
.
And
howe
the
duke
of
Tasson
in
Almayne
had
ben
in
Englande
/
for
to
confyrme
that
maryage
.
And
the
mater
was
so
concluded
/
that
the
kynge
of
Rhomayns
sende
his
suster
in
to
Englande
/
and
the
duke
of
Tasson
with
her
.
And
a
great
company
of
knightes
/
ladyes
/
and
damosels
/
in
royall
astate
/
as
it
aꝑteyned
to
suche
a
lady
.
And
so
she
came
first
in
to
Brabante
/
to
the
towne
of
Bruesels
.
And
there
the
duches
of
Brabant
receyued
her
and
all
her
company
/
in
goodly
maner
.
The
duke
of
Brabant
was
her
vncle
/
for
she
was
doughter
to
th
emꝑour
Charles
.
And
so
thus
the
lady
Anne
of
Behayne
helde
her
at
Brusels
with
her
vncle
and
aunte
/
more
than
the
space
of
a
moneth
.
She
durste
nat
go
thens
.
I
shall
tell
you
why
.
¶
It
was
shewed
her
/
that
ther
was
on
the
see
a
.xii.
vessels
of
nor
mayns
/
bytwene
Caleys
and
Hollande
/
&
they
robbed
and
pilled
on
the
see
/
they
cared
nat
who
.
And
so
they
kepte
he
boundes
of
the
see
/
about
Flaunders
and
zelande
/
abyding
the
comynge
of
this
yonge
lady
.
For
the
french
kyng
wolde
gladly
haue
broken
that
maryage
/
for
he
greatlye
douted
the
alyaunce
/
bytwene
Englande
&
Almayne
.
Howe
be
it
alwayes
it
is
sayd
/
that
it
is
nat
honorable
to
take
ladyes
in
warre
.
In
coloryng
the
warr
bitwene
lordes
/
to
make
their
warr
the
fayrer
.
The
prince
of
Wales
/
father
to
kyng
Richarde
of
Englande
.
It
was
sayd
/
he
consented
to
the
takyng
of
the
lady
of
Burbone
mother
to
the
french
quene
.
She
was
taken
by
the
prices
seruauntes
/
in
the
castell
of
Belperch
.
and
so
brought
in
to
Guyen
/
and
raunsomed
.
Wherfore
the
frenchmen
thought
/
if
they
myght
take
the
kyng
of
Englandes
wyfe
/
in
reuengyng
therof
/
they
shulde
do
no
wronge
.
So
for
feare
and
doute
therof
/
this
lady
lay
styll
at
Brusels
/
the
space
of
a
moneth
.
Than
the
duke
of
Brabant
sende
his
counsayle
into
Fraunce
/
as
the
lorde
of
Rousselās
/
and
the
lorde
of

to
shewe
the
kynge
&
his
vncles
/
they
were
nephewes
to
the
duke
of
Brabant
:
as
chyldren
of
his
suster
.
These
lordes
of
Brabant
spedde
so
well
with
the
frenche
kyng
and
his
counsayle
/
that
they
had
a
sure
saue
conduct
/
for
the
lady
to
passe
outher
by
lande
or
by
see
.
Wheder
it
pleased
her
/
throughe
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
or
by
the
fronters
therof
to
Calais
.
And
the
normains
that
were
on
the
see
/
were
countermaunded
agayne
.
And
so
the
frenche
kyng
and
his
vncles
wrote
to
the
Duke
of
Brabant
/
that
they
dyde
this
for
his
sake
all
onely
/
and
for
none
other
.
This
pleased
moche
the
duke
of
Brabant
&
the
duchesse
/
and
all
suche
as
wolde
passe
the
see
.
So
than
they
departed
fro
Brusels
/
and
the
lady
toke
her
leaue
of
the
duke
her
vncle
/
and
of
the
duchesse
her
aunt
.
And
of
the
ladyes
and
damosels
of
the
countrey
/
suche
as
had

.
And
so
the
duke
sende
with
her
/
a
hundred
speares
to
conuey
her
to
Gaunte
/
and
there
she
rested
her
a

.
And
there
the
gauntoyse
dyde

gret
honour
.
and
fro
thens
she
went
to
Bruges
/
&
there
the
erle
of

receyued
her
ryght
honourably
/
&
there
she
rested
her
a

.
And
than
she
rode

/
where

/
and

with
a

and
as

and
so
they
brought

.
And
the
brabansies
retourned
/
as
soone
as
they
had
delyuered
her
to

of
Englande
.
THis
yonge
lady
taryed

but

and
so

on

And

And

was
honourably
receyued
of

And

/
the

And

howe
the
parysiens
were
a
greed
with
the
kyng
/
to
pay
a
certayne
some
of
florens
euery
weke
.
This
some
of
floreyns
was
payed
to
a
certayne
receyuour
apoynted
by
them
/
but
the
kyng
had
it
nat
/
nor
it
went
nat
out
of
Parys
.
And
so
it
happed
/
that
the
kynge
had
besynes
with
money
to
pay
his
men
of
warre
/
suche
as
he
sent
in
to
Castell
.
wherto
he
was
bounde
/
by
the
aliaunces
that
was
made
before
.
And
so
the
kyng
sent
to
Parys
to
his
receyuour
/
that
he
shulde
prepare
for
hym
a
hundred
thousande
frankes
/
for
he
sayd
he
wold
comforte
and
ayde
kyng
John
of
Castell
.
The
receyuour
answered
the
kyngis
letters
and
message
right
graciously
/
and
sayd
:
howe
he
had
money
mough
.
Howe beit
he
myght
delyuer
none
without
the
hole
consent
of
the
towne
of
Parys
.
These
wordes
pleased
nothyng
the
kyng
/
but
he
sayde
he
wolde
puruey
right
well
for
remedy
:
whanne
he
myght
/
and
so
he
dyd
.
And
so
for
his
entente
(
as
at
that
tyme
)
he
purueyed
hym
of
other
money
/
by
the
helpe
of
his
good
townes
in
Pycardy
.
Thus
there
was
a
great
discencion
/
bytwene
the
kyng
and
them
of
Parys
.
and
so
the
kyng
wolde
nat
come
to
Parys
/
but
he
abode
at
Mieulx
/
at
Senles
/
or
at
Compayne
/
&
there
a
bout
:
wherof
they
of
Parys
were
sore
displeased
.
And
the
greatest
suretie
and
meane
that
they
hadde
/
was
the
duke
of
Aniou
/
who
wrote
hym selfe
kynge
of
Cecyll
/
and
of
Hyerusalem
:
and
had
taken
on
hym
the
armes
therof
.
This
duke
most
comonly
lay
at
Parys
/
and
there
he
gate
moche
good
to
helpe
hym
to
his
viage

He
gate
toguyder
so
great
a
some

(
that
it
was
sayd
)
that
he
had
at
Roquemore

Auignon
/
two
myllions
of
florens
.
He
entreated
so
them
of
Parys
by
his
fayre
langage
.
and
by
that
he
had
the
soueraynte
aboue
all
his
bretherne
/
bycause
he
was
eldest
.
that
he
had
of
them
the
some
of
a
hundred
thousande

.
But
the
kyng
coude
gette
none
of
them
/
nor
his
vncles
of
Berrey
/
nor

Burgoyne
.
and
whan

had
made
his
prouision
/
in
the
springyng
tyme
of
the
yere
he
toke
his

&
so
passed
the
realme
/
and
came
to
Auignon
:
wher
as
he
was
greatly
feasted
with
the
pope
/
and
with
the
cardynals
.
and
thyder
came
to
hym
the
barones
and
rulers
/
of
the
good

of
Prouence
/
&
receyued
hym
for
their

/
and
dyd

&
feaulte
.
and
dyd
put
them selfe
in

.
and
thyder
came
to
him
the
gentle

of
Sauoy
his
cosyn
:
with
certayne
lordes
and
knightes
/
who
were
also
well
receyued
of

And
there
the
duke
of
Aniou
delyuered
to
the
erle
of
Sauoy
a
great
some
of
money
/
for
them

And
so

went
on

/
and
at

And

and
in

And
all

The

tyme
in

cytie
of

there
was
his

/
sir
Charles

/
who
in

kyng
of

He
claymed

rightfull
enherytaunce
/
without
any
heyre
in

maryage

after
the

This
Charles
helde
the
gyft
that
the
quene
had
made
to

but
in

:
and
so
shewed
after

by
two
reasons

the

was

he
sustayned

sayd

and
the
neapolitans
ayded
hym

in
sustaynynge
of
the

.
and
the
cesilyens
in
lykewise
(
they
sayd

howe
the

coude
nat
gyue
away

and
though
her
gyft
hadde
bene
good

and
so
alowed
in

court
of
Rome
/
yet
she
dyd
nat
well
.
for
she
helde
with
pope
Urbane
and
nat
with
Clement
.
these
were
the
questions
and
the
debates
/
that
sir
Charles
de
la
Payx
layde
for
him selfe
/
and
in
the
begynnyng
he
wrought
wysely
.
For
he
sore
fortifyed
and
furnysshed
the
castell
of
Leufe
/
the
whiche
is
the
moost
strongest
castell
of
the
worlde
.
for
it
is
set
by
enchauntment
in
the
see

and
it
is
nat
passyble
to
be
wone
/
but
by
nygromancy
or
by
the
art
of
the
deuyll
.
he
vitailed
it
for
thre
or
four
yere
/
&
had
with
hym
a
certayne
men
of
warre
and
so
kept
that
place
:
for
he
knewe
well
they
of
Napoles
wold
nat
forsake
him
though
he
lost
Puyll
&
Calabre
for
.ii.
or
thre
yere
.
he
thought
to
recouer
it
agayne
as
lyghtly
.
for
he
ymagyned
in
his
mynd
:
that
the
duke
of
Aniou
wolde
entertayne
suche
a
nombre
of
men
of
warre
as
he
hadde
brought
with
hym
/
the
whiche
shulde
nat
long
lye
in
his
puyssaunce
so
to
do
/
outher
for
faulte
of
vytayle
:
or
for
money
.
Wherby
he
thought
they
shulde
be
constrayned
to
departe
within
a
two
or
thre
yere
.
And
than
he
ymagined
/
that
whan
they
were
wery
and
out
of
good
rule
/
than
he
wolde
fyght
with
them
at
his
aduauntage
.
These
thoughtes
and
ymagynacions
hadd
Charles
de
la
Payx
/
wherof
he
sawe
some
take
effect
:
or
the
terme
passed
that
he
presired
.
For
truly
/
there
was
no
prince
christned
:
without
it
were
the
frenche
kyng
/
or
the
kynge
of

that
coude

to

as
the

.
He
brought
ouer

And
so

the
whiche
they
founde
so
replenysshed
with

wherof

And

&
all
the
chyualry
of

and

passed
forthe
and
came
in

They
of
Napoles
/
for
all
the
feare
that
they
had
of
these
men
of

/
they
wolde
neuer
close
gate
of
their
towne

but
kept
them
styll
open

for
they
thought
well
/
that
the

shulde
neuer
en●
in

with
their

for

they

he
shulde

for

Than
there
was
an

a
connynge
man
in
nygromancy
/
in
the
marches
of
Napoles
/
and
so
he
came
to
the

sayd

Whan

So

In

for

but
ye

well
/
the

By

Thus
departed

and
returned
to
his
company
/
and
shewed
them
/
as
ye

Sirs
qd
the
Chanone
Robersard
.
for
all

I
wyll
nat

.
I
se
well
he

but
dissemble
with

he
wolde
nat
that
we
shulde
ryde
forthe
/
to

we
shulde
haue
no
cause
to
demaunde
our
money
.
but
I
am
of
the
opynion
to
ride
forth
and
so
they
all
determyned
the
same
/
and
thervpon
made
euery
thynge
redy
/
and
apoynted
the
euenyng
/
whan
they
wolde
ryde
forthe
the
next
mornyng
.
Than
there
came
to
them
/
sir
John
Ferand
/
a
knight
of
the
kyng
of
portingales
/
who
had
ben
infourmed
howe
they
wold
ryde
forth
/
and
so
he
brought
letters
to
the
Chanone
Robersarde
whiche
he
red
:
and
founde
therin
/
howe
the
kynge
of
Portyngale
defended
hym
in
any

:
Sayeng
further
/
howe
he
knewe
well
that
the
styrring
of
any
rydyng
forthe
to
do
any

/
was
by
his
procurynge
.
Of
these
tydyngis
was
the
Chanone
Robersard
sore
displeased
/
and
sayde
to
the
knyght
.
sir
:
I
se
well
/
the
kynge
wyll
nat
in
any
wyse
/
that
I
shulde
ryde

.
Take
it
so
that
I
a
byde
styll
in
my
lodgynge
/
thynke
you
that
these
other
knyghtes
/
who
are
better
/
and
more
valyaunt
than

▪
that

?
I
ensure

and
that
ye

▪
se
tomorowe
/
for
they
are
all
determyned

sir

/
than
commaunde

and

by

that
wyll
I
nat
do
.
but
sir
/
commaunde
ye
then
syth
ye
come
fro
the
kyng
.
So
thus
the
mater
rested
all
that
nyght
and
in
the
morning
they
sowned
their
trumpets
.
Than
knyghtes
and
squiers
armed
them
/
and
mounted
on
their
horses
/
&
so
came
to
the
Chanone
Robersardes
lodging
/
who
dyd
nat
arme
himselfe
.
And
there
these
knyghtes
/
and
squiers
rested
.
and
the
Chanone
Robersarde
came
to
a
wyndowe
/
and
spake
to
them
/
and
shewed
them
/
howe
the
kyng
wolde
nat
that
he
shulde

.
By

quod
they
:
than
wyll
we
/
seynge

beso
forewarde
/
and
so
we
counsayle
you

do
.
it
shal
be
no
reproche
to

/
and
we
ryde
forth
:
though
ye
abyde

.
So
the
Chanone
Robersard
sawe
well
there
was
none
other
boote
for
hym
/
but
to
arme
him
/
and
to
ryde

them
/
and
so
he
dyd
/
and
so
dyd
the
knyght
of
Portyngale
/
sir
John
Ferande
.
wherfore
after
he
was
in
sore
displeasure
with
the
kynge
/
and
lyke
to
haue
dyed
there fore
.
So
thus
at
the
desyre
of
these
companyons
they
armed
them
/
and
issued
out
of
the
towne
of
Uesyouse
/
and
entred
in
to
the
feldes
.
They
were
to
the
nombre
of
four
.
C.
speares
/
&
as
many
archeres
.
&
toke
the
way
to
Geuyll
/
and
came
to
a
towne
called
the
Bane
.
So
longe
they
rode
forthe
that
they
came
to
the
towne
of
Bane
/
and
ther
lyghted
a
fote
.
on
that
parte
/
that
they
thought
moost
prignable
.
and
ther
they
set
them selfe
in
array
redy
to
gyue
assaute
/
and
so
entred
in
to
the
dykes
which
were
drie
/
without
any
water
/
and
so
came
to
the
walles
/
and
mad
a
ferse
assaut
/
and
myned
&
vnder
hewed
the
walles
.
The
same
tyme
in
the
towne
of
Bane
/
there
were
noo
men
of
warre
/
but
the
men
of
the
towne
yuell
armed
.
Howe beit
they
were
at
their
defence
/
and
dyd
cast
dartes
and
stones
aswell
as
they
might
.
but
at
lenght
they
coulde
nat
endure
/
but
to
be
taken
.
Than
they
began
to
treat
/
and
so
fynally
they
yelded
vp
the
towne
/
their
goodes
&
lyues
saued
.
sayng
howe
fro
thens
forthe
/
they
wolde
be
vnder
the
obeysance
of
the
kynge
of
Portyngale
.
and
so
thus
they
were
receyued
/
and
all
the
men
of
warre
entred
in
to
the
towne
/
and
well
refresshed
them
sel●e
.
Than
they
went
and
regarded
the
castell
&
sawe
well
howe
it
was
prignable
.
and
so
that
euenyng
some
of
the
hoost
/
&
they
of
the
castell
dyd
skrymysshe
.
and
in
the
mornyng
they
made
assaut
/
and
they
within
defended
themselfe
.
With
in
the
castell
there
was
capitayne
/
a
gentleman
of
the
countrey
.
Howbeit
he
was
no
very
good
man
of
warre
/
as
it
well
apered
.
&
he
was
called
Peter
Jagouse
/
for
as
sone
as
he
sawe
that
he
was
assayled
/
with
so
many
good
men
of
warr
he
was
afrayd
/
and
fell
in
treaty
/
and
so
yelded
him selfe
and
the
castell
/
his
lyfe
saued
.
and
suche
as
were
within
with
him
.
and
so
it
was
taken
&
newe
refresshed
/
with
men
of
armes
&
archers
.
than
they
departed
&
came
to
a nother
castell
/
a
vii
.
myle
thens
/
called
Courtise
.
Than
they
set
them selfe
in
ordre
to
gyue
assaut
/
&
so
they
dyd
right
fersly
/
they
that
were
within
defended
them selfe
ryght
valyauntly
/
to
their
powers
.
And
so
at
this
assaut
/
the
capitayne
was
slayne
within
the
castell
/
called
Radulphes
/
a
right
subtle
and
an
expert
man
of
armes
/
he
was
slayne
with
an
arrowe
/
for
he
aduentured
him selfe
to
far
at
the
defence
.
After
that
he
was
deed
/
the
other
coulde
nat
longe
endure
.
and
so
the
castell
was
taken
/
and
they
within
moste
parte
slayne
.
Thus
the
Chauone
Robersarde
&
his
company
/
had
the
castell
of
Courtyse

the
whiche
was
newe
fortifyed

And

Wenyng

Why

.
by
the
holy
saynt
James
I
shall
cause

be
hanged
.
Than
the
knyght
fell
on
his
knees
/
and
sayd
.
sir
/
their
capitayne
dyd
aquyte
him
well
and
truly
/
in

.
but
the
resydue
cawsed
hym
to

them
a
gaynst
his
wyll
/
and
made
me
also
to
go
with

to
shewe
them

in

countre
.
and
sir
/
syth
the

hath
taken
good
effect
/
ye
ought
to
pardon
it
.
howbeit
for
all
those
wordes
/
the
kynge
made
hym
to

prisone
.
And
so
remayned
/
tyll
the
erle
of
Cambridge
caused
him
to
be
delyuered
/
whan
he
came
to
Lys●on
to
the
kyng
:
as
ye

After
that
th
englysshmen
and
gas●ons
/
were
returned
to
the
towne
of
Uesyous
/
and
ther
taryed
a

than
they
de●myned
to
send
to
the
kyng
of
Portingale
for
their
wages
/
that
they
were
behynde

and
so
they
sende
forthe
the
lorde
Tal●ot
a
baron
.
And
whan
he
was
come
to
Lysbone
/
&
had
spoken
with
the
kynge
/
for
that
he
was
come
for
.
The
kyng
answered
and
said
how
they
had
two
tymes
rydden
forth
agaynst
his
commaundement
/
wherin
they
had
displeased
hym
/
the
whiche
delayed
their

.
and
so
as

the

●albot
coude
haue
non

and
so
retourned
to
his
company
/
&
shewed
them
the
kynges
answere
/
wherwith
they
were
sore
displeased
.
The

weke
th

Cambridge
remoued
fro
Estremuse
/
and
came
&
lodged
at
Uesious
/
in

The

Among

them selfe
they

It

And
in

so
dyde
some
of
the
englysshe
men

but
nat
many
.
For
th
erle
of
Cambridge
brought
them
home
agayne
into
Englande
:
and
his
son
also
.
wher
by
it
shewed
well
/
that
he
was
nat
content
with
the
kynge
of
Portyngale
:
to
take
a
way
his
son
from

/
for
all
that
he
had
maryed
the
kynges
doughter
.
He
sayde
/
howe
that
his

coulde

endure
the
ayre
of

.
For
all
that
euer
the

coulde
say
or

/
the
erle
wolde
nat
leaue
him
behynde
him
.
But
sayd
to
the
kyng
/
that
his
sonne
was
to
yong
to
abyde
in
Portingale
.
wherfore
it
fell
after
/
as
ye
shall
here
.
¶
About
a
yere
after
that
this
peace
was
thus
made
/
bytwene
Spayn
and
Portyngale
and
that
the
erle
of
Cambridge
was
retourned
in
to
Englande
.
The
quene
of
Castyle
dyed
/
who
was
doughter
to
the
kyng
of
Aragon
.
and
so
than
the
kyng
of
Spayne
was
a
wydower
.
Than
it
was
debated
by
the
prelates
and
lordis
of
bothe
countreis
/
Spayne
and
Portyngale
/
that
the
lady
Beatryce
of
Portigale
/
coude
nat
be
more
higher
maryed
thanne
to
the
kynge
of
Spayne
.
And
to
bring
these
two
realmes
in
a
full
accorde
and
peace
/
the
kyng
of
Portyngale
agreed
to
the
maryage
.
and
deuorsed
his
doughter
fro
the
erle
of
Cambridge
sonne
/
by
the
popes
dispensacion
:
who
confyrmed
this
newe
maryage
.
Thus
the
kyng
of
Portyngales
doughter
was
made
quene
of
Spaygne
/
of
Castyle
/
and
of
Galyce
.
And
the
first
yere
of
the
kyng
of
Spaynes
maryage
/
he
had
by
his
wife
a
fayre
sonne
/
wherof
they
gad
great
ioye
.
Than
after
dyed
Ferrande
kyng
of
Portyngale
.
howbeit
for
all
that
/
they
of
Portingale
wolde
nat
suffre
the
realme
to
come
to
the
kynge
of
Spayne
/
as
in
the
right
of
his
wyfe
.
But
they
made
kyng
/
a
bastarde
brother
of
the
Kynges
dysceassed
/
who
was
called
before
maister
Denys
/
bastard
of
Portyngale
.
This
Denys
was
a
ryght
valyant
man
in
armes
/
and
alwayes
before
/
bare
the
armes
of
Portigale
.
So
thus
he
was
crouned
kynge
/
wherby
after
grewe
moche
warre
/
bytwene
Spayne
and
Portyngale
.
as
ye
shall
here
after
in
this
boke
.
WHau
th
erle
of
Cambridge
and
his
company
/
were
retourned
in
to
the
realme
of
Englande
.
The
kyng
and
the
duke
of
Lancastre
made
them
great
chere
/
as
it
was
reason
:
and
demaunded
of
them
tidynges
.
And
there
they
shewed
all
the
manere
of
the
warre
.
The
duke
of
Lancastre
/
to
whome
the
matere
moost
touched
/
bycause
of
the
chalenge
that
he
made
to
the
realme
of
Castyle
.
For
he
named
hym selfe
(
as
heyre
therof
)
by
the
right
and
tytell
of
his
wyfe
:
the
lady
Custaunce
/
somtyme
doughter
to
Dompeter
/
kyng
of
Castell
.
Therfore
he
demaunded
of
his
brother
the
erle
of
Cambridge
/
howe
they
had
demeaned
them selfe
in
Portyngale
.
Th
erle
shewed
hym
/
howe
the
two
kynges
had
layen
in
hoost
/
more
than
fyftene
dayes
:
the
one
before
the
other
.
And
fayre
brother
/
bycause
the
kynge
of
Portyngale
coulde
here
no
worde
fro
you
/
he
lightly
accorded
to
the
peace
.
And
we
coulde
neuer
se
/
the
euer
he
wolde
condiscende
to
batayle
.
Wherof
we
that
were
on
his
partie
were
sore
dyspleased
/
for
we
wolde
gladly
haue
put
it
at
aduenture
.
And
sir
/
bycause
I
canne
se
no
sure
a
state
nor
trust
in
them
/
therfore
I
haue
brought
agayne
with
me
my
sonne
for
all
that
he
hath
maryed
the
kyngis
doughter
.
Sir
〈◊〉
the
duke
/
I
thynke
ye
had
good
cause
:
sauyng
for
feare
of
breakyng
of
that
maryage
.
For
paraduenture
if
the
kynge
may
fynde
/
any
aduauntage
in
another
place
/
he
wyll
than
gyue
his
doughter
at
his
pleasure
.
By
my
faythe
sir
quod
th
erle
/
happe
what
wyll
.
I
thinke
I
haue
done
nothyng
/
wherof
I
shulde
repent
me
.
and
so
than
they
entred
in
to
other
communycation
of
other
maters
.
¶
Nowe
lette
vs
leaue
to
speke
of
them
and
of
the
warres
of
Spayne
and
Portyngale
.
And
retourne

of
Gaunte
/
and
of
the
Erle
and
countrey
of
Flaunders
/
whiche
were
right
feirse
and
cruell
.
¶
Of
the
great
necessyte
of
vytales

that
they
of

endured
.
and
how
they
were

ALl
the
season

after
the
distruction
and
brinnyng
of
the
towne
of
Grauntmont
/
and
of
the
reysyng
of
the
siege
of
Gaunt
.
by
cause
of
the
displeasure
the
the
erle
of
Flaunders
had
/
for
the
dethe
of
his
cosyn
/
the
yonge
lorde
of
Dangheyn
.
slayne
by
the
enbusshment
of
the
gauntoyse
(
as
ye
haue
herde
here
before
)
The
knyghtes
and
squiers
/
nor
good
townes
/
made
no
warre
to
them
Gaunt
:
but
by
garisons
.
so
the
all
the
countre
helde
with
the
erle
/
agaynst
Gaunt
:
except
the
four
mestiers
/
and
so
by
theym
/
some
vytayle
came
in
to
Gaunte
.
And
some
vitayle
came
in
to
Gaunt
out
of
the
countie
of
Alos
/
but
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
as
sone
as
he
knewe
that
/
he
founde
remedy
.
For
incontynent
/
he
sent
to
the
garyson
of
Teremont
/
commaundyng
them
to
ouerryn
and
to
brenne
/
all
the
playne
countrey
of
the
countie
of
Alos
:
whiche
was
done
at
his
commaundment
.
so
that
the
poore
folkes
with
their
beastes
/
were
fayne
to
flye
a
way
in
to
Brabant
/
and
in
to
Haynalte
.
and
the
moste
parte
to
go
a
beggyng
.
yet
there
was
a
countrey
parteynyng
to
the
foure
mestiers
/
fro
whom
ther
came
euer
some
ayde
or
vitayle
into
Gaunt
.
Thus
all
this
wynter
the
erle
and
they
of
Flaunders
/
constrayned
so
sore
them
of
Gaunt
/
that
they
coulde
haue
nothyng
come
to
them
/
nother
by
land
nor
by
water
.
The
erle
had
so
wonne
his
cosyns
/
the
duke
of
Brabant
and
duke
Aubert
/
that
their
countreis
were
kept
close
agaynst
them
of
Gaunt
.
so
that
nothynge
came
to
them
fro
thens
/
without
it
were
by
stelth
.
and
by
great
aduenture
and
parell
/
for
them
that
dyd
it
.
The
sage
men
sayd
:
howe
it
coulde
nat
longe
endure
/
but
the
they
must
dye
for
famyne
.
for
all
their
garners
were
voyd
/
and
the
people
coulde
gette
no
breed
for
no
money
.
And
whan
any
breed
was
baken
in
the
towne
/
they
were
fayne
to
kepe
it
by
stronge
hande
.
or
els
the
comon
people
that
dyed
for
hunger
/
wolde
haue
taken
it
byforce
.
It
was
great
pyte
to
se
and
to
here
the
poore
people
/
bothe
men
/
women
/
and
chyldren
.
ye
/
suche
as
were
right
notable
/
fell
in
this
daunger
.
And
euery
day
encreased
the
complayntes
/
wepynges
/
and
cryes
/
made
to
Phylyp
Dartuell
/
their
souerayne
capitayne
.
Who
had
of
them
great
pytie
and
compassyon
/
and
made
many
good
orders
:
wherof
he
was
greatly
praysed
.
For
he
caused
the
garners
of
the
abbeys
to
be
opened
and
of
ryche
men
/
and
sette
a
resonable
price
of
the
corne
/
wherby
the
towne
was
greatly
conforted
.
&
some
corne
ther
came
to
them
by
stelthe
/
out
of
Holande
and
zelande
/
and
tonnes
full
of
flower
and
bysket
breed
/
the
whiche
greatly
conforted
them
.
for
they
hadde
bene
longe
discomfyted
before
/
if
they
had
nat
bene
comforted
by
these
sayd
countreys
.
It
was
defended
in
all
Brabant
by
the
duke
/
the
on
payne
of
dethe
/
they
shulde
cary
any
thyng
to
Gaunt
/
but
if
they
of
Gaunt
wolde
ieoparde
to
fetche
any
.
than
they
myght
gyue
them
or
sell
to
them
at
their
pleasure
.
And
whan
the
tyme
of
lent
came
/
than
were
they
in
great
dystresse
/
for
they
had
no
lenton
stuffe
.
Than
ther
departed
out
of
the
towne
a
.xii.
thousande
of
sowdyers
/
and
suche
as
had
nothyng
to
lyue
by
/
but
were
ouercome
with
famyne
.
And
so
they
came
to
the
towne
of
Brusels
/
the
towne
closed
their
gates
agaynst
them
/
for
they
feared
them
/
they
knewe
nat
their
thoughtes
.
Whanne
they
were
nere
to
Brusels
/
they
sende
a
certayne
of
their
company
vnarmed
to
the
gate
of
the
towne
/
and
there
they
desyred
them
of
the
towne
/
for
godsake
to
haue
pytie
of
them
/
as
to
suffer
them
to
haue
vitayle
for
their
money
.
Saynge
/
howe
they
dyed
for
hunger
.
And
sware
/
howe
they
thought
none
yuell
too
them
/
nor
to
the
countrey
about
.
The
good
men
of
Brusels
had
pytie
on
them
/
and
brought
them
vytayle
for
their
money
.
&
so
they
passed
their
tyme
about
in
the
countrey
/
the
space
of
thre
wekes
but
they
coulde
entre
in
to
no
good
towne
.
And
so
they
came
to
Louayn
/
who
had
pytie
on
them
/
and
dyde
them
moche
good
and
refresshyng
.
Their
capitayne
and
leader
was
Fraunces
Atreman
/
he
made
the
treaties
for
them
with
the
good
townes
.
And
in
this
season
while
they
of
Gaunt
lay
in
the
marches
of
Louayne
/
their
capitayne
spake
with
the
maysters
of
the
cytie
of
Lyege
/
and
they
had
compassyon
on
them
.
and
so
had
the
bysshoppe
of
Liege
/
sir
Arnolde
Darcle
.
and
promysed
them
to
sende
to
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
and
to
do
so
moche
/
as
to
make
their
peace
/
sayeng
vnto
them
.
A
ye
good
men
of
Gaunt
/
if
the
countrey
of
Lyege
were
as
nere
to
you
as
Brabant
is
/
or
Haynalte
.
ye
shuld
be

Howe beit

We

may
go
and
come
through
the
countrey
/
as
it
is
reason
:
to

some

hundred
cartes

laded
with

/
so
that
the

therfore
.
they
wyl
suffer
our
marchaundyse
to
passe
thorowe
Brabant
they
and
we
are
at
a
peace
.
And
though
it
be
so
that
Brusels
be
closed
/
we
knowe
it
well
/
it
is
more
for
feare
/
than
for
any
yuell
wyll
:
for
they
haue
of
you
great
compassyon
.
but
the
duke
of
Brabant
and
the
duches
/
at
the
desyre
of
their
cosyn
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
inclyneth
rather

:
as
it
is
reason

for

wayes
great

wyll
holde
eche

.
Of
these
offers
and
loue
that
the
legeoyse
offered
to
the
gauntoyse
/
they
were
therof
greatly
reioysed
/
and
thanked
them
hertlye
/
and
sayd
:
howe
of
suche

&
frendes
/
the
gauntoyse

FRaunces
Atreman
and
the

/
that
were
in

.
toke
leue
of
the
maysters
of

/
who
ordayned
certayne
men
/
to
go
with
them
in
to
the
countrey
/
to
gette
them
chares
.
and
so
in
two
dayes
they
had
a
sixe
hundred
charged
with
corne
/
wherof
they
had
moost
nede
.
And
so
they
wente
forthe
with
their
caryage
/
&
passed
bytwene
Louayn
and
Brusels
.
And
whanne
Fraunces
Atreman
came
to
his
company
/
he
shewed
them
the
loue
and
courtesy
/
the
they
of
Liege
had
offred
them
.
and
offereth

and
moreouer
he
sayde

howe

And
so
he
sent

her
to
knowe
her
pleasure
/
and
she
was
contente
/
that
he
shulde
come
and
speke

and
so
he
went
to
Brusels
.
The
same
tyme
the
duke
of
Brabant
was
at
Lusenburge
.
And
so
this
Fraunces
and
thre

him
entred
in

Brusels
/
and
so
came
to
the
duches
to
her

The

For

And

Thanne

Other

Of

And
caused
masses
to
be
songe
in
dyuers
places
/
by
certayne
freers
that
were
with
him
.
And
so
euery
man
confessed
hym

&
mercy
.
And
ther

certayne
sermons
made

enduryng

And
there
it
was
shewedde
to
people

freers
and
clerkes
/
figurynge
them

the
people
of
Israell

And

lande
of

And

In

for

But

For

Nor

For

Therfore

And

For
vyctorie
lyeth
nat
in
puyssaunce
of

:
But
it
is
all
onely
in

.
And
by
his
grace
/
it
hath
ben
often
tymes
sene
/
as
well
by
the
Macabeus
/
as
by
the
Rhomayns
.
That
a
small
people
of
good
wyll
/
trustynge
in
the
grace
of
god
/
hathe
disconfyted
a
great
nombre
of
people
.
And
sirs
/
in
this
quarell
ye

good
right
and
a
Juste
cause
.
And
therfore
by
many
reasons
/
ye

hardy
/
and
of

.
Thus
with
suche
wordis
and
other
/
these
freers
preched
to
the
people
that
mornynge
:
wherwith
they
were
well
content
.
And
thre
partes
of
the
hoost
were
houseled
/
she
wynge
theym selfe
to
haue
great
trust
in
God
.
And
after
these
masses
songe
/
than
they
assembled
toguyder
on
a
lytell
hyll
.
And
there
Phylyppe
Dartuell
by
great
sentence
/
shewed
them
fro
poynt
to
poynt
/
the
ryght
that
they
thought
〈◊〉
had
in
their
quarell
.
And
howe
that
often
●mes
the
towne
of
Gaunt
had
requyred
their
●ode
〈…〉
Erle
/
to
haue
mercy
on
them
.
but
they
coulde
neuer
come
to
no
poynt
with
hym
/
But
to
the
great
confusyon
and
domage
of
the
towne
of
Gaunt
:
and
to
the
enhabytauntes
therof
.
Also
sayeng
/
howe
they
were
than
come
so
farforthe
that
to
recule
agayne
they
coude
nat
.
And
also
/
than
to
retourne
(
all
thynges
consydered
)
they
coude
wynne
nothynge
therby
.
For
they
hadde
lefte
nothynge
behynde
them
/
but
pouertie
and
heuynesse
.
And
moreouer
he
sayd
.
sirs
/
thynke
nother
of
your
wyues
nor
chyldren
/
but
thynke
of
your
honour
.
Thus
suche
fayre
wordis
Philyppe
Dartuell
shewed
among
them
/
for
he
was
well
langaged
/
and
coude
speke
rightwell
/
and
well
it
became
hym
:
and
finally
he
sayd
.
Now
fayre
lordes
.
Lette
vs
truely
and
equaly
departe
oure
vitayle
eche
to
other
lyke
bretherne
/
without
any
maner
of
outrage
.
for
whan
this
is
spende
it
must
behoue
vs
to
seke
for
newe
/
if
we
thinken
to
lyue
.
And
so
than
right
humbly
/
the
chayres
were
discharged
and
the
bred
was
deuyded
by
the
constables
▪
and
the
two
tonnes
of
wyne
/
the
bottomes
were
set
vpwarde
.
And
so
there
they
dyned
with
the
bredde
and
with
the
wyne
/
and
were
contente
with
their
small
repaste
/
for
that
tyme
.
And
felt
them selfe
better
disposed
/
bothe
in
courage
and
in
their
membres
/
thanne
&
they
had
eaten
more
meare
.
And
whanne
this
dyner
was
past
/
than
they
set
them selfe
in
order
/
and
drewe
them selfe
within
their
rybaudeur
.
The
whiche
were
hyghe
stakes
/
bounde
with
yrone
and
sharpe
poynted
/
whiche
they
vsed
euer
to
beare
with
them
in
their
warre
.
And
so
they
set
them
before
their
batayle
/
and
closed
them selfe
within
them
.
And
in
this
estate
/
the
thre
squyers
that
were
sende
fro
th
erle
/
to
se
their
demea
nynge
founde
them
.
For
they
aproched
so
nere
/
that
they
might
well
auiewe
them
/
for
they
came
iuste
to
their
stakes
.
But
the
gauntoyse
neuer
styred
for
all
theym
/
but
lette
them
alone
.
And
made
semblaunt
/
that
they
were
right
ioyefull
of
their
comynge
.
THan
these
currours
rode
to
Bruges
to
th
erle
/
and
founde
hym
in
his
lodgyng
/
with
a
great
nombre
of
knightes
and
squyers
with
hym
.
So
they
came
through
the
preace
to
the
erle
/
and
they
spake
out
a
loude
/
bycause
the
Erle
wolde
they
shulde
be
herde
.
And
so
there
they
shewed
/
howe
they
hadd
rydden
so
nere
to
the
gauntoyse
/
that
they
myght
haue
shotte
at
them
/
if
they
had
lyst
.
But
they
suffred
them
to
passe
peasably
.
And
also
they
shewed
/
how
they
had
sene
their
baners
.
Than
the
erle
demaunded
what
nombre
of
people
they
were
/
by
estymacyon
.
They
answered
/
that
surely
:
as
farre
as
they
coude
disery
/
they
past
nat
a
fyue
or
sixe
thousande
.
Than
the
erle
sayd
well
.
Let
euery

appareyle
hymselfe
/
I
wyll
go

with
them
they

without

▪
and
therwith
the
trumpettes
dyde
sowne
throughe
Bruges
/
and
than
euery
man
armed
him
.
And
assembled
in
the
market
place
/
and
set
themselve
in
order
with
their
baners
/
as
was
the
vsage
.
And
before
the
Erles
lodgynge
assembled
:
lordes
/
knightes
/
and
squyers
.
Whan
euery
thing
was
redy
:
than
th
erle
went
to
the
market
place
and
sawe
there
great
nombre
of
people
well
ordred
and
araynged
/
wherof
he
reioysed
.
And
so
at
his
commaundement
/
euery
man
drewe
in
bone
order
in
to
the
feldes
.
It
was
great
pleasure
to
beholde
them
.
They
were
a
.xl.
thousande
armed
men
.
And
so
/
what
a
hors
hacke
and
a
fote
:
they
came
nere
to
the
place
where
the
gauntois
were
/
and
there
they
rested
.
And
by
that
tyme
that
th
erle
was
come
thyder
/
it
was
past
noone
and
the
sonne
began
to
declyne
.
Than
some
sayd
to
the
erle
.
sir
/

And

We

Let

and
sir

therby
ye
shall
se
what
they
wyll

.
They
shall
be
febler
than
they

/
for

The
erle
acorded
well
to

and
wolde
that
it

done
.
But
they
of
Bruges
were
so

&
hasty
to

/
that
they
wolde
nat
abyde
.
But
sayd
:
set

/
they

long
endure
.
And
so
than
they
of
Bruges
began
to
shote
gonnes
at
them
.
And
than
they
of
Gaunt
discharged
at
ones
thre

C.
gonnes
at
one
shotte
:
and
so
tourned
a
bout

.
and
caused
the
son
/
to
be
in
the
eyen
of
them
of
Bruges
/
the
which
greued
them
sore
:
and
so
entred
in
among
them
and
cryed
Gaunt
.
And
as
soone
as
they
of
Bruges
herde
them
crye
Gaunt
/
and
herde
so
many
gonnes
come
in

Lyke

herted
people

of

courage
/
they

gauntois
to

among
them
.
And
so
without
any
defence
/
they
cast
downe
their
weapens
and
tourned
their
backes
.
Than
the
gauntoyse
seyng
well
howe

were
disconfyted

kept

And

they
sayd
so

And
as

There

I

For

Some

that
there

It

¶
Howe
the

Th

And

So

but
they
hadd
no

A

and
whan
th

herde
those

/
whiche
were
right
harde
to

as
it
was
reason

He
was
greatly
than
abasshed

and
ymagined
what

he

thanne
he
beleued
the
counsayle

wolde
go
no

but
to
saue
hym selfe
if
he
myght
:
and
so
tooke
his
owne
counsayle
.
He
commaunded
to
put
out
all
the
lyghtes
/
and
sayd
to
them
that
were

.
I
se
well
there

Let
euery

departe

and
saue

as
well
as

And
as
he
commaunded
it
was
done
.
The
lyghtes
were
quenched
and
cast
in
to
the
stretis
/
and
so
euery
man
departed
.
Th
erle
than
went
in
to
a
backe
lane
/
and
made
a
varlette
of
his
to
vnarme

/
and
dyd
cast
away

&
put

.
And
than
sayd
to

.
Go

and
haue

He
answered
and
sayd
.
ser
/
to

therfore
/
I
wyll
speke
no
worde
of

.
Thus
abode
there
the
erle
of
Flaunders
all
alone
.
He
might
than
well
saye
/
that
he
was
in
great
daunger
and
harde
aduenture
/
for
at
that
tyme
/
if
he
had
fallen
in
the
handes
of
his

/
he
had
bene
in
daunger
of
dethe
.
For
the
gauntoyse
went
fro
house
to
house
/
serchyng
for
the
Erles
frendes
.
And
euer
as
they
founde
any
/
they
brought
them
in
to
the
market
place
.
and
there
without
remedy
/
before
Philyp
dart
well
and
the
capitayns
/
they
were
put
to
dethe
.
so
god
was
frende
to
the
erle
/
to
saue
him
out
of
that
parell
.
He
was
neuer
in
suche
daunger
before
in
his
lyfe
/
nor
neuer
after
.
As
ye
shall
here
after
in
this
hystorie
.
This
about
the
hour
of
mydnight
/
the
Erle
went
fro
strete
to
strete
/
and
by
backe
lanes
.
so
that
at
last
he
was
fayne
to
take
a
house
/
or
els
he
had
be
founde
by
them
of
Gaunt
.
and
so
as
he
went
about
the
towne
/
he
entred
in
to
a
poore
womans
house
/
the
whiche
was
nat
mete
for
suche
a
lorde
.
ther
was
nother
hall
/
palys
/
nor
chambre
it
was
but
a
poore
smoky
house
.
there
was
nothyng
but
a
poore
hall
blacke
with
smoke
/
and
aboue
a
smale
plancher
/
and
a
ladder
of
.vii.
steppes
to
mount
vpon
.
And
on
the
plancher
/
there
was
a
poore
couche
/
wher
as
the
poore
womans
chyldren
lay
.
than
th
erle
sore
abasshed
&
trymblyng
/
at
his
entryng
said
.
O
good
woman
saue
me
/
I

.
but
now
I
must

for

enemyes
chase

.
&
if
ye
do
me
good
now
/
I
shall
rewarde
you
her
after
therfore
.
The
poore
woman
knewe
hym
well
/
for
she
had
ben
often
tymes
at
his
gate
to
fetche
almes
/
and
had
often
sene
hym
/
as
he
went
in
and
out
a
sportyng
.
And
so
incontynent
as
hap
was
she
answered
.
For
if
she
had
made
any
delay
/
he
had
bene
taken
talkynge
with
her
by
the
fyre
.
than
she
sayd
.

ladder
/
&
ley

vnder
the
bedde
that

as

and
so
in
the
meane
tyme
the
woman
sat
downe
by
the
fyre
with
another
chylde
/
that
she
had
in
her
armes
.
So
the
Erle
mounted
vp
the
plancher
as
well
as
he
myght
/
&
crept
in
bytwene
the
couche
and
the
strawe
and
lay
as
flatte
as
he
coude
.
&
euyn
ther
with
/
some
of
the
rutters
of
Gaunt
/
entred
in
to
the
same
hous
for
some
of
them
sayd
.
How
they
had
sene
a
man
entre
in
to
the
house
before
them
.
and
so
they
found
the
woman
syttyng
by
the
fyre
with
her
chylde
.
than
they
sayd
.
Good
woman
/
where

the

that

sawe
entre

this
house
/
&
dyde
shytte

after
hym
.
sirs
quod
she
/
I
sawe
no
man
entre
in
to
this
house
this
nyght
/
I
went
out
rightnowe
&
cast
out
a
lytell
water
/
and
dyd
close
my
dore
agayne
.
if
any
were
here
I
coulde
nat
tell
howe
to
hyde
hym
.
ye
se
all
the
easment
that
I
haue
in
this
house
.
Here
ye
may
se
my
bedde
/
&
here
aboue
this
plancher
lyeth
my
poore
chyldren
.
Than
one
of
them
toke
a
candell
and
mounted
vp
the
ladder
/
&
put
vp
his
heed
aboue
the
plancher
.
&
sawe
ther
none
other
thyng
but
the
poore
couche
/
where
her
chyldren
lay
&
slept
.
And
so
he
loked
all
about
/
and
than
sayde
to
his
company
.
Go

/
we
lese
the

the
poore

sayth
trouth
/
her
is
no
creature
but
she
and
her
chyldren
.
&
than
they
departed
out
of
the
house
.
After
y●
/
ther
was
none
entred
to
do
any
hurt
.
all
these
wordes
the
Erle
herde
ryght
well
/
where
as
he
laye
vnder
the
poore
couche
.
ye
may
well
ymagin
/
than
that
he
was
in
great
feare
of
his
lyfe
.
He
might
well
saye
?
I
am
as
nowe
/
one
of
the
poorest
princes
of
the
worlde
.
and
myght
well
say
/
that
the
fortunes
of
the
worlde
are
nothynge
stable
.
yet
it
was
a
good
happe
/
that
he
scaped
with
his
lyfe
Howe
be
it
/
this
harde
and
peryllous
aduenture
myght
well
be
to
hym
a
spectacle
all
his
lyfe
after
:
and
an
ensample
to
all
other
.
¶
Nowe
let
vs
leaue
the
erle
of
Flaunders
in
this
harde
estate
/
and
speke
of
them
of
Bruges
/
and
howe
the
gauntoyse
parceyuered
.
¶
Howe
they
of
Gaunte
/
spared
the
marchauntes
straungers
:
and
howe
the
erle
parted
fro
Bruges
and
went
to
Lysle
.
And
howe
he
was
receyued
there
ioyously
.
Cap.
CCCC
.i.
FRaunces
Atreyman
/
was
one
of
the
chefe
capiteynes
of
these
rutters
.
he
was
sent
by
Philyppe
Dartuell
and
by
Peter
de
Boyse
/
to
seke
aboute
Brugis
for
their
enemies
.
and
to
kepe
the
markette
place
all
nyght
tyll
the
next
day
.
that
they
might
se
/
that
they
were
lordes
of
all
the
towne
And
they
were
straytely
commaunded
/
that
they
shulde
do
no
hurte
/
to
any
marchaunt
straunger
/
beyng
than
in
Bruges
.
Sayeng
/
howe
it
were
no
reason
:
that
they
shulde
take
hurte
/
for
their
warre
.
This
commaundement
was
well
kept
.
The
chefe
occasyon
fell
on
the
foure
Mestyers
/
for
they
had
alwayes
ben
fauourable
to
the
erle
/
before
And
warpe
and
in
other
places
.
The
gauntoyse
went
all
about
serchyng
for
them
and
as
they
were
founde
/
they
were
slayne
without
mercy
.
The
same
nyght
there
were
slayne
/
〈…〉
han
.xii.
hundred
/
what
of
one
and
other
:
with
many
other
robberyes
and
yuell
dedes
/
the
whiche
came
nat
all
to
knowledge
.
As
dyuers
houses
robbed
and
pylled
/
women
defoyled
and
distroyed
:
and
coffers
broken
vp
.
So
that
the
moost
poorest
of
Gaunt
/
were
than
become
riche
.
tHe
sondaye
in
the
mornynge
/
the
ioyfull
tidynges
came
to
the
towne
of
gaunt
.
Howe
that
their
company
had
disconfyted
the
erle
and
all
his
chiualry
:
and
were
lordes
and
maysters
of
Bruges
.
ye
may
well
beleue
and
knowe
/
that
this
tidynges
greatly
reioysed
the
people
/
beyng
before
in
tribulacyon
.
And
so
for
ioye
they
made
dyuers
processyons
/
laudynge
god
:
in
that
he
had
so
regarded
them
with
his
eye
of
pytie
/
and
so
conforted
them
.
as
to
gyue
them
vyctorie
of
their
enemyes
.
And
so
alwayes
/
there
came
fresshe
tidynges
to
theym
of
their
vyctorie
:
wherby
they
were
so
reioysed
that
they
wyst
nat
what
to
do
.
The
lorde
of
harsels
/
who
was
as
than
abidynge
in
Gaunt
.
If
he
had
taken
the
same
sonday
or
the
monday
after
/
a
thre
or
foure
thousande
men
in
harnesse
/
and
gone
to
Andwarpe
:
he
had
taken
the
towne
at
his
pleasure
.
For
they
of
the
towne
were
so
abasshed
whan
they
herde
the
tidyngis
/
that
nigh
for
feare
/
they
had
fledde
out
of
the
towne
in
to
Heynaulte
/
or
in
to
other
places
/
to
haue
saued
them selfe
.
Therto
/
they
were
redy
aparelled
.
but
whan
they
sawe
that
they
of
Gaunte
came
nat
to
them
warde
/
than
courage
came
to
them
and
also
/
suche
knyghtes
as
came
thyder
dyde
confort
them
.
As
sir
Johan
Bernage
/
sir
Tyrrey
du
Ban
/
and
sir
Flureant
of
Hurle
.
These
thre
knightes
conforted
them
of
Andwarpe
/
vnto
suche
tyme
/
as
sis
Damas
of
Hallone
came
thyder
fro
the
erle
.
as
ye
shall
here
after
.
THer
were
neuer
people
/
that
dyde
with
their
enemyes
/
as
they
of
Gaunte
dyde
with
them
of
Bruges
.
They
dyde
hurt
no
man
of
any
of
the
smale
craftes
of
the
towne
/
without
he
were
sore
accused
.
Whan
Philyp
Dartwell
and
the
capitayns
of
Gaunt
/
sawe
how
they
were
lordes
of
Bruges
/
and
all
at
their
commaundement
and
vnder
their
obeysaunce
.
Than
they
made
a
crye
/
that
euery
man
on
payne
of
dethe
shulde
drawe
to
their
logynges
/
&
nat
to
robbe
nor
pylle
/
nor
to
make
no
debate
/
without
they
were
commaunded
.
Than
it
was
enquered
/
if
any
man
knewe
where
th
erle
was
become
.
some
sayd
/
howe
he
was
fledde
the
saturday
.
&
some
other
sayd
/
howe
he
was
styll
in
the
towne
/
hyd
and
coude
nat
be
founde
.
the
capitayns
of
gaunt
toke
lytell
hede
therof
/
for
they
wereso
reioysed
with
their
vyctorie
/
that
they
cared
for
nothynge
.
Nother
for
erle
/
baron
/
knight
/
nor
other
in
all
Flaunders
.
They
reputed
them selfe
so
great
/
that
they
thought
to
haue
all
/
vnder
their
obeysance
.
Than
Philyp
Dartuell
and
Peter
de
boyse
remembred
/
that
whan
they
departed
fro
Gaunt
/
they
left
no
vitayle
/
nor
other
purueyaunce
in
the
town
Therfore
they
sent
streyght
a
certayne
nombre
of
men
/
to
Dan
and
to
Scluse
:
to
th
entent
to
belordes
therof
/
&
of
the
vitayle
in
them
.
And
whan
suche
as
were
sent
came
to
Dan
/
they
opyned
the
gates
to
them
.
And
all
that
was
in
the
towne
/
was
put
in
to
their
handes
/
and
euery
thyng
at
their
commaundement
.
Than
there
was
taken
out
of
the
fayre
cellers
/
the
good
wynes
of
Poyctou
/
of
Gascone
/
and
of
Rochell
:
and
of
other
farre
countreis
/
a
fyue
or
sixe
thousande
tonnes
.
And
it
was
layde
in
to
shippes
and
in
to
chares
and
conueyed
to
Gaunt
/
what
by
lande
and
by
water
.
And
than
they
went
farther
and
came
to
Scluse
.
Whiche
towne
incontynent
was
opyned
to
theym
/
and
put
vnder
their
obeysaunce
.
And
there
they
founde
great
quantyte
of
corne
and
meale
/
in
shyppes
and
cellers
of
marchauntes
straungers
.
So
all
was
bought
and
payed
for
/
and
sende
to
Gaunt
/
by
water
and
by
lande
.
Thus
the
towne
of
Gaunt
/
was
refresshed
and
delyuered
fro
misery
/
by
the
grace
of
god
/
other
wyse
it
coude
nat
haue
ben
done
.
The
gauntoys
than
ought
well
to
remembre
/
that
god
playnly
had
holpen
them
.
Seyng
/
that
fyue
thousandemen
nere
famysshed
/
disconfyted
.xl.
thousandemen
/
at
home
at
their
owne
doores
.
The
capitayns
nor
they
/
had
no
cause
to
be
proude
therof
but
they
were
so
proud
therof
/
that
god
was
displeased
with
theym
.
And
that
was
well
sene
or
the
yere
passed
.
as
ye
shall
her
after
in
the
storie
:
to
gyue
ensample
to
all
people
.
I
Was
enformed
/
and
I
beleue
it
well
.
that
the
sonday
at
night
/
the
erle
of
Flaunders
yssued
out
of
the
towne
of
Brugis
/
by
what
meanes
I
can
nat
saye
.
If
any
dyde
helpe
to
make
his
way
I
can
nat
tell
/
but
I
beleue
yes
.
He
yssued
out
a
fote
all
alone
/
in
an
olde
symple
cloke
And
whan
he
was
in
the

for
than
he
might
well
say

howe
he
had
escaped
a

And
so
went
forthe

aduenture
/
and
went
to
a
thicke
busshe
/
tose
what
way
he
myght
take
.
For
he
knewe
nat
well
the

/
nor
he
was
nat
wonte
to
go

fote
.
And
as
he
stode
vnder
a
thicke
bussh
in
the
night
/
he
herde
by
aduenture
a
man
speke
/
as
he
came
by
and
it
was
a
knight
of
his
/
who
had
maried
his
bastard
doughter
:
and
he
was
called
sir
Robert
Marshall
.
Th
erle
knewe
hym
well
by
his
wordes
/
and
as
he
passed
by
/
he
said
.
Robert
/
are
ye
there
.
The
knight
/
who
knewe
the
erle
well
by
his
speche
/
sayde
.
A
sir
:
ye
haue
made
me
this
day
to
seke
in
many
places
for
you
about
Bruges
.
Howe
are

out
?
Let
vs
go
our
way
quod
the
erle
.
It
is
no
tyme
to
tell
our
aduentures
.
I
pray
you
let
vs
do
so
moche
/
that
I
may
haue
a
horse
/
for
I
am
sore
wery
with
goyng
a
fote
.
and
I
pray
you
:
let
vs
take
the
way
to
Lysle
and
ye
knowe
it
.
yes
sir
qd
the
knight
I
knowe
it
well
.
And
so
they
wente
forthe
all
that
nyght
tyll
it
was
the
next
mornyng
/
or
they
coude
get
a
horse
/
and
yet
they
coude
gette
none
.
But
the
first
that
they
founde
was
a
Mare
/
the
whiche
they
toke
fro
a
poore
man
in
a
vyllage
.
So
the
erle
lept
on
her
without
sadyll
or
panell
.
And
at
night
came
to
Lysle
/
wher
the
moost
parte
of
his
knightes
that
fledde
out
of
the
felde
were
come
thyder
:
some
a
fote
/
some
a
hors
backe
/
and
some
were
gone
in
to
Hollande
and
in
to
zelande
.
as
sir
Guy
of
Guystels
/
he
arryued
at
a
good
port
for
he
founde
in

in
a

there
/
th
erle
Guy
of
Bloyes

who
made
hym
good
chere

&
departed
largely
with
hym
/
and
wylled
him
to
tary
ther
with
hym
/
as
long
as
it
shulde
please
hym
.
Thus
they
that
were
desolate
/
were
recomforted
by
the
lordis
that
they
resorted
vnto
/
who
had
pyte
on
them
:
as
it
was
reason
.
For

Of

THe
tidynges
spredde
a
brode
in
to
dyuers
countreis
/
of
the
disconfyture
of
them
of
Bruges
/
and
of
th
erle
their
lorde
/
done
by
the
gauntois
.
wherwith
ther
were
diuers
people
reioysed
/
and
specially
commynalties
.
All
the
good
townes
aboute
Gaunt
/
and
in
the
bysshoprike
of
Liege
/
were
as
ioyfull
/
as
thoughe
the
mater
had
ben
their
owne
.
In
lykewise
/
so
were
they
of
Rohan
and
Parys
in
Fraunce
/
if
they
durst
haue
spoken
it
.
And
whanne
pope
Clement
herde
therof
/
he
be
thought
hym
a
lytell
/
and
sayde
.
Surely
/
this
disconfyture
was
a
stroke
of
god
/
to
gyue
ensample
to
the
erle
.
And
that
god
had
sende
him
that
tribulacion
/
bycause
he
was
rebell
against
his
opinyons
.
Also
other
great
lordis
in
Fraunce
and
in
other
places
/
sayd
.
howe
the
erles
aduersytie
/
was
nat
greatly
to
be
complayned
/
for
he
had
well
deserued
to
beare
it
.
For
he
had
ben
so
presumptuous
/
that
he
loued
no
lorde
/
neighbour
frenche
kyng
nor
other
:
wherfore
they
complayned
lesse
his
persecucyons
.
Howbeit
it
is
an
olde
sayng
/
he
that
hath
any
yuell
fortune
/
men
wyll
speke
the
worst
therof
.
and
specially
they
of
the
towne
of
Louayne
were
greatly
reioysed
/
with
the
victory
of
the
gauntoyse
/
&
of
the
erles
trouble
.
for
they
were
but
in
harde
case
with
the
duke
of
Brabant
their
lorde
/
who
was
in
purpose
to
make
them
warr
/
and
to
beate
downe
their
gates
/
to
kepe
them
therby
the
rather
vnder
.
Also
it
was
sayd
in
the
towne
of
Louayn
/
that
if
Gaunt
hadde
bene
as
nere
them
as
Brusels
was
:
they
wolde
haue
ioyned
togyder
/
and
haue
been
all
one
.
Of
all
their
wordes
and
deuyses
/
the
duke
and
duches
of
Brabant
were
enformed
/
but
it
behoued
them
/
as
at
that
tyme
/
to
close
their
eyen
and
to
holde
downe
their
heedes
/
for
it
was
no
tyme
for
them
than
to
speke
.
THus
they
of
Gaunt
beynge
in
Bruges
:
deuysed
many
newe
thynges
.
&
among
other
/
they
deuysed
to
beate
downe
two
gates
that
were
towarde
Gaunt
/
and
to
fyll
the
dykes
to
th
entent
that
they
of
Bruges
shuld
neuer
rebell
after
against
Gaunt
.
and
whan
they
shuld
departe
/
to
take
with
them
a
fyue
hundred
men
of
them
of
Bruges
/
to
th
entent
to
kepe
them
in
the
more
feare
and
subiectyon
.
Thus
in
the
meane
season
whyle
these
capitayns
were
at
Bruges
/
beatyng
downe
gatis
and
walles
/
and
fillyng

They

.
submittynge
themselfe
to

and
so
they
all

none

came
all

puttyng
them selfe

And
so

so
dyd

And

And

than
euery

we

highe
enterprise
&
of
noble
wyll
and
corage
.
by
my
faithe
qd
the
kyng
fayre
vncles
/
I
wolde
we
shulde
be
redy
to
morowe
next
/
to
go
to
that
iourney
.
for
fro
hens
forth
/
the
grettest
pleasure
that
I
desyre
/
is
to
go
in
to
Flaunders
/
to
abate
the
pride
of
the
flemynges
.
Of
the
whiche
wordes
the
two
dukes
had
great
ioye
.
than
came
to
them
the
duke
of
Burbone
&
they
shewed
hym
all
the
mater
:
as
ye
haue
herde
before
.
And
of
the
great
desyre
that
the
kyng
had
to
go
in
to
Flaunders
/
wherof
the
duke
of
Burbon
had
great
ioy
.
Thus
the
mater
hanged
in
this
estate
.
And
the
kyng
and
his
vncles
wrote
letters
to
the
lordes
of
the
counsayle
of
Fraunce
.
Desyring
them
/
to
come
at
a
day
assigned
to
Campyen
/
to
a
parlyament
that
shulde
be
ther
holden
/
for
certayne
besynesse
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
&
so
euery
man
obeyed
as
it
was
reason
:
&
the
kyng
was
right
gladde
of
that
tidyngis
.
His
mynde
was
so
sore
therof
/
that
no
man
coude
set
hym
therfro
.
And
the
kyng
sayd
oft
tymes
/
that
ther
was
to
gret
delayes
made
in
the
mater
.
for
he
sayd
/
that
he
thought
/
if
one
shulde
enterprise
a
great
mater
it
shulde
nat
be
long
delayed
.
for
in
the
delay
/
the
enemyes
take
aduyce
to
their
aduauntage
.
And
also
whan
the
parels
of
warr
was
layd
to
hym
than
wolde
he
answere
and
say
.
ye
/
he
that
neuer
enterpriseth
/
lytell
or
no
thynge
atchyueth
.
Thus
the
yonge
kyng
oft
tymes
deuysed
/
with
the
knightes
and
squyers
of
his
chambre
.
¶
Nowe
shall
I
shewe

a
dreme
/
that
fortuned
to
the
king
in
the
same
season
/
whyle
he

Lyse
:
by
occasyon
of
whiche
dreme
/
he
ordayned
the
deuyse
of
the
flyeng
Hart
/
as
I
was
than
enformed
.
Ca.
iiii
.
C

IT
fortuned
whyle
the
kynge
lay
at
saynt
Lyse
:
on
a
night
as
he
lay
in
his
bedde
a
slepe
/
he
had
a
visyon
.
It
semed
to
hym
properly
that
he
was
in
the
cyte
of
Aras
/
wher
as
he
had
neuer
ben
before
/
and
with
hym
all
the
chiualry
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
.
And
he
thought
the
thyder
came
to
hym
th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
&
dyd
set
on
his
fist
a
fayre
faucon
pelerin
/
sayeng
to
him
thus
.
Sir
/
I
gyue
you
this
faucon
/
for
the
best
that
euer
I
sawe
:
the
best
flyeng
&
beater
downe
of
foules
.
Of
whiche
present
/
the
kyng
thought
he
had
great
ioye
/
&
sayd
.
Fayre
cosyn
I
thanke
you
.
And
therwith
/
he
thought
he
regarded
the
constable
of
Fraunce
sir
Olyuer
Clysson
/
and
sayd
vnto
hym
.
sir
Olyuer
/
let
vs
two
go
in
to
the
feldes
to
proue
this
gentyll
faucon
/
that
my
cosyn
of
Flaunders
hath
gyuen
me
.
And
than
he
thought
/
the
constable
answered
hym
&
sayd
.
sir
lette
vs
go
whan
it
pleaseth
you
.
and
so
than
he
thought
/
that
they
toke
their
horses
they
two
alone
/
and
went
in
to
the
feldes
:
&
founde
plentic
of
heerons
to
flye
at
.
Than
the
kyng
sayd
/
constable
/
let
the
faucon
flye
/
&
we
shall
se
howe
she
wyll
chase
her
game
.
Than
the
constable
cast
of
the
faucon
/
&
she
mounted
so
highe
in
to
the
ayre
/
that
they
coude
scant
se
her
.
&
the
kyng
thought
she
toke
her
way
streyght
in
to
Flaunders
.
than
the
kynge
sayd
/
lette
vs
ryde
after
my
byrde
/
I
wolde
nat
lese
her
.
and
so
he
thought
they
rode
after
/
tyll
they
came
to
a
great
maryse
/
and
to
a
thicke
wode
.
Than
the
kyng
sayd
/
let
vs
light
a
fote
/
for
we
can
nat
passe
this
wode
a
hors
backe
And
so
they
a
lighted
:
and
than
he
thought
that
varlettes
came
to
them
and
toke
their
horses
.
&
so
the
kynge
and
the
constable
entred
in
the
wode
with
great
payne
/
and
traueyled
so
long
that
they
came
to
a
fayre
great
launde
.
And
ther
the
kyng
thought
/
he
sawe
his
faucon
chasyng
herons
/
&
fightyng
with
them
&
they
with
hym
.
And
it
semed
to
the
kyng
/
that
his
faucon
chased
so
the
herons
/
that
at
last
he
lost
the
sight
of
her
.
Wherwith
he
thought
he
was
sore
displeased
/
seyng
that
he
coude
nat
folowe
his
hauke
.
&
thought
he
sayde
to
the
constable
.
A
/
I
feare
me
I
shall
lese
my
faucon
/
wherof
I
am
sorie
.
And
I
haue
no
lure
nor
nothynge
els
/
wherwith
to
call
her
agayne
.
And
at
this
poynt
/
the
kynge
thought
that
there
apered
sodenly
before
hym
/
a
great
Hart
with
wynges
/
and
enclyned
hym selfe
before
hym
:
wherof
he
had
great
ioye
.
&
thought
howe
he
sayd
to
the
constable
.
Sir
/
abyde
you
here
/
and
I
wyll
mount
on
this
Hart
/
and
so
folowe
my
faucon
.
And
so
the
kynge
thought
/
he
mounted
on
this
flyeng
Hart
,
and
howe
the
hart
acordyng
at
the
kynges
desyre
/
dyde
beare
him
ouer
all
the
great
wodes
and
trees
.
and
ther
he
same
howe
his
faucon
beate
downe
great
plentie
of
foules
/
so
that
it
was
marueyle
to
beholde
.
And
than
it
semed
to
the
kynge
/
whan
his
faucon
had
long
flyen
and
beaten
downe
many
herons
.
Than
he
thought
he
called
her
/
and
incontynent
the
faucon
came
and
sat
her
downe
on
his
fyst
.
And
than
the
Hart
flewe
agayne
ouer
the
wodes
/
&
brought
the
kyng
to
the
same
launde
/
where
as
the
constable
taryed
for
hym
:
who
had
great
ioye
of
his
comynge
.
And
assoone
as
he
was
a
lyghted
/
he
thought
the
Hart
departed
/
and
than
neuer
sawe
hym
after
.
and
so
ther
the
kyng
thought
howe
he
shewed
to
the
constable
howe
that
the
Hart
had
borne
hym
easly
:
he
neuer
rode
so
easly
before
.
and
also
he
thought
he
shewed
hym
/
of
the
bountie
of
his
faucon
.
And
therwith
it
semed
to
hym
/
that
his
varlettis
came
to
them
and
brought
them
their
horses
.
And
so
they
mounted
and
toke
the
hyghe
waye
/
and
so
came
agayne
to
Arras
.
And
therwith
the
king
awoke
and
had
great
marueyle
of
that
visyon
/
And
he
remembred
euery
thynge
therof
ryght
well
/
and
shewed
it
to
them
of
his
chambre
/
that
were
about
hym
.
And
the
fygure
of
this
Hart
pleased
hym
so
moche
/
that
all
his
ymaginacion
was
set
theron
.
And
this
was
one
of
the
firste
incydentes
/
that
whan
he
went
in
to
Flaunders
to
fight
with
the
flemynges
/
he
toke
to
his
deuyse
to
beare
the
flyeng
Hart.
PHilyppe

/
for
all
his
good
aduentur
at
the
begyuning
of
his
batayle
agaynst

/
and
for
all
the
good
fortune
/
that
he
had
in
the
discontyture
of
th
erle
and
of
them
of
Bruges
.
yet
for
all
that
he
was
no
subtyll
man
of
warre
/
nother
in
sautyng
nor
layeng
of
siege
.
For
he
had
nat
ben
brought
vp
therin
in
his
youthe
/
he
had
bene
more
vsed
to
fisshe
with
an
angle

in
the
riuer
of
Lescalt
.
The
whiche
well
apered
whyle
he
laye
at
siege
before
And
warpe
/
for
he
coude
nat
get
the
towne
He
thought
by
presumpcyon
/
that
the
syght
of
hym
shulde
haue
made
them
of
Andewarpe
to
haue
yelded
them
to
hym
/
but
they
were
nothyng
so
disposed
.
For
they
bare
them selfe
lyke
valyant
men
/
and
made
often
tymes
scrimysshes
at
the
barryers
/
and
slewe
and
hurt
dyuers
of
the
flemyngis
:
and
drewe
agayne
in
to
their
towne
without
any
domage
.
And
of
suche
issues
Lambert
of
Lambres
and
Trystram
his
brother
/
&
the
lorde
of
Lunelhyen
bare
the
greattest
renōe
The
flemynges
sawe
well
/
howe
the
dykes
of
the
towne
were
large
and
full
of
water
/
so
that
they
coude
nat
aproche
to
assaile
it
/
but
with
moche
payne
&
danger
.
Than
they
determyned
amonge
them selfe
to
gette
fagottes
and
strawe
/
and
so
to
fyll
the
dykes
to
come
to
the
walles
/
to
fight
hande
to
hande
.
And
as
they
ordeyned
so
it
was
done
.
Howe
be
it
/
they
within
made
no
count
of
them
/
and
sayd
.
that
if
ther
were
no
treason
among
them selfe
nor
in
the
towne
/
they
wold
set
no
thyng
by
the
siege
that
they
sawe
layde
to
them

And
so
therfore
sir
Danyell
of
Halwyn
/
who
was
capitayne
there
/
to
bring
euery
thyng
out
of
doute
/
kept
hym selfe
day

night
euer
aboue

and
he
so
ordeyned
that
there
was
none
of
them
of
the
towne
shulde
come
on
the
walles
of
the

without

of
some
of
the

this

the
flemyngis
had
great
plenty
of
vitayls
comyng
to
them
by

for
they
were

This

more
englisshe
than

and
wolde
gladly
that
he
had
ben
alyed
with
the

Wherby
he
thought
that
if
the

duke
of
Burgoyne
came
on
him
with
an
army
/
that
he
shulde

He
had

Of

PHilyp
Dartuell
/
to
the
entent
to
coloure
his
dedes
/
&
to
knowe
what
was
sayde
of
hym
in
Fraunce
.
He
determyned
to
write
in
the
name
of
the
hole
countre
of
Flaunders
/
to
the
frenche
kyng
.
submytting
them selfe
/
&
requyring
the
kyng
to
tak●
some
busynes
for
them
:
as
to
bring
them
agayne
i●
to
parfyte
loue
with
their
lorde
the
erle
of
Flaunders
.
So
thus
he
wrote
certayne
letters
to
the
kyage
and
to
his
counsayle
/
and
delyuered
them
to
a
messanger
.
Commaundyng
hym
/
to
go
to
the
kynge
with
the
letters
/
and
so
he
dyde
.
And
rode
so
long
/
that
he
came
to
saynt
Lyse

where
he
founde
the

The

toke

Assoone
as
they
were
reed
and
well
vnderstande

they
dyde
nothynge

laughed
therat
.
And
thanne
it
was
ordayned
/
to
take
the
messanger
/
and
to
set
hym
in
prison
/
bycause
he
was
come
to
the
presens
of
the

/
without
any

conduct
.
&
so
ther
he
remayned
more

thre

Whan
Philyppe
Dartuell
knewe
it
/
he
had
great
indygnacion
therat

and
caused

And

requestes
:
and
shall
so
answere
you
/
that
ye
ought
to
be
contente
.
The
gauntoyse
answered
and
sayd
.
God
graunt
it
.
and
so
they
departed
fro
the
counsayle
/
and
the
lordes
abode
styll
to
guyder
:
&
began
to
laughe
amonge
them selfe
/
and
sayd
.
Haue
ye
nat
sene
these
fleminges
/
and
herde
their
requestes
that
they
make
.
They
demande
to
be
conforted
/
&
say
/
howe
they
haue
nede
therof
.
and
yet
for
all
that
/
they
demaunde
to
haue
our
money
.
It
is
no
resonable
request
/
that
we
shulde
both
ayde
and
pay
.
So
thus
they
reputed
the
flemynges
right
proude
and
presumptuous
▪
to
demaunde
to
haue
agayne
/
two
hundred
thousande
crownes
:
of
so
olde
dette
(
as
they
sayd
)
of
a
.xl.
yere
paste
.
There
was
neuer
a
better
poynt
for
the
frenche
kyng
/
if
he
wyll
/
than
to
come
into
flaunders
.
For
if
the
flemynges
had
nat
as
than
/
demaunded
the
foresayd
somme
of
crownes
/
but
haue
desyred
the
kyng
of
his
confort
and
ayde
.
The
kyng
wolde
haue
gone
or
sent
into
Flaunders
/
so
puissauntlye
:
to
haue
bydden
batayle
(
with
the
ayde
of
the
flemynges
)
to
any
prince
of
the
worlde
.
But
it
wente
otherwyse
:
as
ye
shall
herafter
in
the
storie
.
UIdynges
came
into
Fraunce
to
the
counsayle
there
.
Nowe
that
Philyp
Dartwell
(
whose
courage
was
all
englysshe
)
and
the
countre
of
Flaunders
/
had
sent
in
to
Englande
certayne
of
their
men
/
to
make
aly
aunces
with
th
englysshmen
.
And
the
voyce
ran
/
and
the
comon
renome
:
that
the
kyng
of
Englande
with
a
great
puissaunce
/
shulde
come
in
that
season
&
aryue
in
Flaunders
▪
and
to
lye
in
Gaunt
.
these
tidinges
were
lightly
to
be
beleued
/
howe
that
the
flemynges
wolde
fortify
them selfe
▪
in
some
maner
awyse
.
Than
it
was
deuysed
/
that
the
messanger
that
was
come
fro
Philyppe
Dartuell
/
whome
they
helde
in
prison
▪
shulde
be
delyuered
.
And
to
say
the
trouthe
/
ther
was
no
cause
why
to
retayne
hym
.
so
he
was
delyuered
/
&
sent
to
thost
before
And
warpe
.
The
same
season
they
of
Bruge
▪
had
taken
certayn
burgesses
of
turney
/
and
kept
them
in
prison
.
The
flemynges
she
wed
well
/
howe
they
had
as
lyue
haue
warre
with
Fraunce
as
peace
.
And
whan
they
of
Tourney
/
sawe
that
they
dyde
so
moche
▪
than
they
atrapped
/
and
toke
certayne
burgesses
of
Courtrey
and
so
kept
them
in
prison
in
Tourney
.
Thus
ther
engendred
hatred
dayly
/
bytwene
Fraunce
and
Flaunders
.
howbeit
the
lordes
of
Tourney
wolde
nat
that
their
dede
/
shulde
be
a
tytell
of
warr
to
the
flemynges
/
who
were
their
neighbours
/
without
it
were
by
the
commaundement
of
the
frenche
kyng
.
The
whiche
commaundement
they
had
nat
as
than
.
Therefore
they
deuysed
to
sende
two
of
their
burgesses
to
the
flemynges
/
&
to
haue
in
eschange
/
prisoners
for
prisoners
.
so
ther
was
chosen
to
go
on
this
message
/
Johan
Bone
and
John
Pycart
.
And
so
they
wente
to
t
hoost
before
And
warpe
/
and
spake
with
Philyp
dartuell
.
Who
for
the
honour
of
the
cytie
of
Tourney
/
and
nat
for
loue
of
the
frenche
kyng
(
as
he
sayd
)
welcomed
:
and
receyued
them
amyably
.
For
Philyp
sayd
:
howe
the
kyng
had
nat
deserued
their
loue
.
Whan
that
their
messanger
sent
to
hym
for
a
good
entent
/
shulde
be
put
in
prison
.
sir
qd
the
two
burgesses
.
ye
haue
agayn
your
messanger
.
That
is
true
qd
Philyp
/
but
that
was
more
for
feare
than
for
loue
.
But
sirs
/
tell
me
wherefore
ye
become
to
vs
.
sir
qd
the
burgesses
/
it
is
to
haue
agayne
our
men
of
the
cytie
of
Tourney
/
that
be
in
prison
at
Bruges
.
A
sirs
qd
Philyp
/
if
they
kepe
them
/
in
lyke
wise
/
so
do
ye
kepe
of
our
men
of
Cortrey
.
but
sirs
/
ye
shall
nat
lese
your
comyng
.
Rendre
agayne
ours
/
&
we
shall
rendre
yours
.
sir
qd
they
/
ye
speke
well
and
so
shall
it
be
done
.
So
ther
they
were
acorded
to
make
this
eschange
.
and
so
Philyp
dart
well
wrote
to
Peter
de
Boyse
and
to
Peter
de
Myrt
/
beyng
at
Bruges
:
that
they
shulde
delyuer
the
prisoners
of
Tourney
/
&
to
receyue
for
them
the
prisoners
of
Courtrey
.
And
so
whan
they
departed
/
Philyp
Dartuell
sayd
to
them
.
sirs
/
take
hede
what
I
say
/
I
wyll
nat
betray
you
.
ye
be
of
the
towne
of
Turney
/
the
which
is
vnder
the
frenche
kyng
/
with
whom
we
wyll
haue
no
treatie
/
vntyll
the
season
that
Teremonde
&
Andwarpe
be
opyned
to
vs
.
Therfore
sirs
/
come
no
more
to
vs
/
for
they
that
do
/
shall
nat
go
home
agayne
.
Therfore
constrayne
your
people
&
marchauntis
/
nother
to
come
nor
go
in
to
Flaunders
.
&
they
do
on
their
ieoperdy
.
For
we
loke
for
none
other
thyng
/
but
that
the
frenche
kyng
wyll
come
and
make
vs
warre
.
The
burgesses
of
Tourney
vnderstode
well
those
wordis
/
&
so
departed
&
returned
to
Turner
:
&
shewed
as
ye
haue
herd
before
.
Than
ther
was
made
a
commaundement
/
the
non
shulde
go
a
marchandise
in
to
flaunders
.
on
payne
/
to
be
in
the
indygnacyon
of
the
frenche
kyng
.
and
so
the
prisoners
were
delyuered
but
they
of
Tourney
durst
nat
marchaundyse
with
them
of
Flaunders
.
But
whan
they
wolde
haue
any
marchaundyse
of
Flanders
:
than
they
wolde
go
to
Ualencennes
.
For
they
of
Heynaulte
/
of
Holande
/
of
zelande
/
of
Brabant
/
and
of
Liege
might
go
and
come
/
and
make
their
marchaundyse
through
all
Flaunders
.
¶
Thus
the
sege
laye
styll
before
Andwarpe
.
Philyp
Dartuell
and
they
of
Gaunt
/
lay
on
the
mount
of
Andewarpe
/
on
the
syde
towarde
Heynalte
.
&
there
were
his
engyns
/
and
great
bombardes
&
gonnes
:
The
whiche
made
suche
noyse
whan
they
were
losed
/
that
the
noyse
therof
▪
might
well
be
herde
sixe
leages
of
.
and
next
were
lodged
they
of
Bruges
/
beyonde
the
ryuer
of
Lescalt
.
And
next
them
:
they
of
Ipre
/
of
Courtrey
/
of
Proprigne
/
of
Cassell
/
and
of
the
franke
of
Bruges
so
that
they
vyroned
rounde
aboute
the
towne
.
Thus
the
towne
was
enuyroned
.
And
the
flemmynges
thought
by
this
siege
/
to
famyne
them
within
.
And
somtyme
they
within
wolde
yssue
out
/
&
somtyme
wan
and
somtyme
lost
/
as
auenture
falleth
often
tymes
in
suche
cases
.
but
ther
was
none
assaut
made
.
for
Philyppe
dartuell
wolde
nat
folisshely
aduenture
his
men
/
for
he
sayd
:
he
wolde
haue
them
without
any
assaut
.
Seyng
/
howe
they
coude
haue
no
conforte
fro
any

.
A
byrde
coude
scant
haue
flyen
in
to
the
towne
/
but
that
some
of
the
host
shulde
haue
sene
her
.
It
was
so
set
rounde
about
.
¶
Letters

of
the
frenche

And
Without

Moreouer

Howe

:
and
to

Wherin
ye

/
we

bycause
we
be
subiectes

And
howe
that
the

Wherfore
ye
say
/
we
ought

And
so
we
haue
done
or
this
/
for
in

/
we
haue
sende
to

our

/
as
to
our

requyring
hym
to
haue
made
our

:
whervnto
he
hath
gyuen

but
our
messanger
taken
and
sette
in

.
The
whiche
we
thynke
a
great
blame
in
suche
a
lorde
.
And
moreouer
/
yet
we
repute
in
hym
more
blame
/
in
that
we
wrote
to
hym
/
as
to
our
souerayne
lorde
:
and
he
nat
wyllynge
to
sende

an

▪
And
bycause
it
pleaseth
hym
nat
so
to
do
.
We
thought
and
yet
thynke
/
to
seke
for
the
profyte
of
the
countrey
of
Flaunders
/
by
some
other

Howe beit

as
yet
there
is
nothynge

but
that
the
kyng
may
helpe
all
the
mater
/
so
that
the
forteresses
be
opyned
to

And
therfore
/
we
defended
them
of
Tourney

whan
they
were
laste
with

in
oure
hoost
/
that
they
shulde
nomore

And
yet
for
all
that

they
be

wherfore
we
haue
taken
the

For
we
thynke
ye
study
some
treason

and
specially
agaynst
me
Philyppe
Dartuell

fro

whiche
god
defende

Wherfore

that

without
so
be
the

Whan
Philyppe

had
thus
writen
his
letter
/
by
the
aduyce
of
his
counsayle
/
&
had
well
examyned
it
/
and
so
sealed
it
:
than
he
bethought
hym
who
shulde
beare
it
.
&
so
demaunded
/
if
there
were
no
prisoner
taken
before
Andwarpe
.
and
it
was
shewed
him
/
how
there
was
a
varlet
of
Arthoyse
/
taken
the
day
before
at
a
scrimysshe
.
than
he
commaunded
/
that
he
shulde
be
brought
before

/
and
so
he
was
.
Than
Philyppe
sayde
/
thou

my

/
I
may
make
the

and
I
wyll
.
howbeit
/
syth

/
thou

that

as
I
shall
take
the
:
to
the
french
kynges
counsayle
/
nowe
being
at
Tourney
.
And
whan
the
varlet
harde
spekyng
of
his
delyueraunce
/
he
was
neuer
so
ioyouse
/
for
he
went
verely
to
haue
dyed
/
and
sayd
.
sir
:
I
swere
to
you
by
my
faithe
/
that
I
shall
beare
your
letter
/
whyder
it
shall
please
you
/
&
if
it
be
into

.
Than
Phylyp
began
to
laughe
.
and
sayd
:
thou
sayest
well
and
so
Philyppe
gaue
hym
two
crownes
/
and
delyuered
hym
the
letter
/
and
caused
hym
to
be
conueyed
out
of
the
hoost
/
and
set
in
the
way
to
Turney
.
And
whan
he
came
to
Turney
he
went
to
the
lodgynge
of
the
bysshoppe
of
Laon
/
and
so
he
came
before
the
bysshop
/
and
dyd
his
message
/
fro
poynt
to
poynt
.
and
ther
was
demaunded
of
hym
tydinges
/
of
the
hoost
before
Andwarpe
/
and
he
shewed
as
moche
as
he
knewe
/
and
so
dyned
there
.
And
after
dyner
the
bysshop
departed
to
his
company
/
and
wolde
nat
open
the
letter
/
tyll
they
were
present
.
And
whan
the
thre
bysshoppes
were
all
togyder
/
they
opyned
the
letter
/
and
redde
it
at
good
leyser
/
and
made
due
examynacion
therof
.
Than
they
spake
togyder
/
and
sayde
:
howe
that
Philyp
Dartuell
by
that
he
shewed
/
was
full
of
pride
&
presumpcion
.
and
sayd
/
howe
that
he
loued
but
lytle
the
maieste
royall
of
Fraunce
.
And
so
toke
counsayle
togyder
/
and
sayd
:
howe
that
the
Prouost
and
counsayle
of
the
towne
of
Turney
.
knewe
right
well
/
howe
they
had
sent
letters
to
Philyp
Dartuell
/
&
to
the
other
townes
of
Flaunders
.
wherfore
they
sayd
:
it
shulde
be
well
done
/
that
they
shuld
here
the
answere
that
Philyp
had
made
.
And
so
sent
for
the
prouost
/
and
sowned
the
comon
bell
/
and
all
the
counsayle
drewe
togyder
.
and
than
before
them
all
the
letter
was
red
two
or
thre
dtymes
.
The
wyse
men
ha
great
marueyle
of
the
presumptuous
wordes
that
were
therin
written
.
&
so
it
was
determyned
that
a
copy
of
the
letter
shulde
remayne
styll
in
Turney
.
&
therwith
the
counsayle
departed
/
euery
man
to
his
logyng
.
PHilyp
Dartuell
/
beyng
styll
in
the
hoost
before
And
warpe
.
repented
him
nothyng
of
that
he
had
writen
so
roughly
to
the
comyssaryes
of
Fraunce
.
but
he
repented
hym
/
in
that
he
had
written
so
amiable
/
to
the
ꝓuost
&
then
of
turney
.
she
wyng
them
honour
/
by
way
of
dissymulacion
.
but
he
dyd
it
/
bicause
he
wold
nat
beare
all
the
blame
/
nor
norisshe
all
the
hate
that
myght
fall
therby
.
So
thus
Philyppe
wrote
to
them
in
maner
as
foloweth
.
And
the
superscripcyon
was
.
To
the
right
honorable

In

thought
to

And
so
on

ther
gadred
togyder
a

score

rode

rode
to

so
ther
chased
nigh

all

They

and
Peter

Of

Thus

Thanne

For

whan

stale
fro

There

He
thought

And
so
he

with

And

Nowe

And
so

with
their
baners

wauyng

And
the
lorde
of

Pye
was
in

chyefe
gouernour
and
leader
of
that
company

bycause
he
knewe
the

Thus
as
they

/
Peter

and
sawe
these

What

which

And

We

And

But
whanne
he

than
he
sayd

I
abandon

And

auaunced
them selfe
to
fynde
way

engin
/
howe
to
passe
the

but
it
was
incontynent
night
/
so
that
of
necessyte
they
must
leaue
their
labours
/
as
in
castyng
of
bordes
and
plankes
on
the
ioystes
/
&
some
layd
their
pauesses
to
passe
ouer
.
so
that
the
flemyngis
had
moche
a
do
to
defend
themselve
/
for
they
wys●
nat
well
to
whom
to
take
hede
.
For
they
sawe
beneth
the
bridge
in
the
maryse
/
a
great
nombre
of
men
of
armes
standyng
close
to
gyder
/
and
styll
m●
comyng

And
also
they
sawe
them
that
were
on
the
other
syde
of
the

/
scrimysshyng
sore
with

/
&
dyde
what
they
might

agayne
.
THus
as
ye
haue
herde
before

the

men
passed
by

that
nyght

and
came
priuely
thoroughe

Nowe
beholde

consyder
the

Seyng
/
howe
in
so
long

Certaynly
I
say
/
this
ought
to
be
reputed
for
a
great
valyantnesse
.
And
trewely
they
were
but
a
handfull
of
men

It

Thus

And
the

who
was
on

On

They

Howe
be
it
/
the
greate
pleasure
and
desyre
that
they
had
to

the

with

/
made
them
forget

yf

as
it

it

and
some

For

The
remembraunce
wherof

made
them

There
was
the

Pye

He

Sayeng

bycause

Thus

ANd

And
receyued

Thus

The
whiche
went
throughe

in

that

There
was
Peter

hurt
with
a

also
in

And
he
had
bene
deed

For
he

a
.xxx.

whome
he
had

.
And
so
they
toke

and
bare
him
out
of

the

was
so
great

that
euery

The

They

Some

The

And
the

the
thyckest
of

/
and
spared
no
more
to

than
/
than
they
had
ben
dogges

and
surely
they
had
good
cause
so
to
do
.
For
if
the
flemynges
had
achyued
the
prise
ouer
them
/
they
had
bene
serued
of
the

sauce
.
¶
Whan
the

sawe
howe
they
were
assayled
so
valyauntly

and
that
the
men
of

had
conquered

Than
they
determyned
to
set

/
for
two
causes
.
The
one
was
/
to
th

And
secondly
to
cause
their

also

And
as

thynkynge
therby

whiche
auayled

for

as
valyauntly
as

/
so
they
pursewed
them
styll
/
betyng
and
sleyng
of

Than
the
slemynges
forsoke
the
towne
and
entred
in
to
the
feldes

and
drewe
togyder
.
and
than

and
some

where

In

meane
season
whyle
these

/
that

barkes

So
euery

So
these

passed
the

for
they
were

The

and
so
within

And
so
all

And
yf
it
please
god
of

that
I

with

that
we

I
shal
be
the

And
if
I
be
discomfyted
/
as
great
a
fortune
hath
fallen
on
a
gretter
lorde
than
I
am
.
Thus
as
Philyppe
Dartuell
and
the
lorde
of
Harsels
were
toguyder
deuysinge
/
Ther
came
certayne
persons
to
them
/
suche
as
had
bene
in
the
batayle
before
Comynes
/
who
verifyed
all
:
as
ye
haue
herde
before
.
Thanne
Philyppe
Dartuell
sayd
.
Is
Peter
du
Boyse
deed
or
a
lyue
.
They
answered
and
sayd
.
Sir
/
he
is
nat
deed
.
But
he
was
sore
hurt
in
the
batayle
/
and
is
gone
to
Bruges
.
And
so
therwith
Philyp
lepte
on
his
horse
/
and
a
.xxx.
men
with
hym
/
and
toke
the
way
to
Gaunt
.
And
he
went
a
lytell
out
of
the

/
to
se
certayne
men
that
were
deed
/
of
the
garyson
of
Andwarpe
.
Who
were
issued
out
the
same
night
/
to
make
a
scrye
in
the
hoost
/
and
so
ther
were
a
.xii.
slayne
.
And
as
he
stode
and
behelde
them
/
he
sawe
where
an
haraude
was
comyng
from
Gaunt
warde
/
belongyng
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
and
he
was
called
Irelande
.
Of
the
comyng
of
this
haraude
/
Philyppe
was
right
ioyefull
/
bycause
he
came
out
of
Englande
/
and
demaunded
of
hym
tidynges
.
Sir
quod
the
haraude
/
there
is
fyue
of
yor
men
with
a
knight
of
Englande
/
called
sir
Wyllyam
Fermeton
/
are
come

And
they
by
the
acorde
of
the
kynge
of
Englande
and
of
his
vncles
/
and
generally
/
by
consent
of
all
the
realme
of
Englande
.
They
haue
brought
you
letters
(
as
I
am
enformed
)
the
whiche
letters
comyth
to
you
as
Regent
of
Flaunders
.
And
whan
ye
knowe
what
the
letters
conteyne
/
and
the
great
alyances
that
ye

haue

them
of

ye

.
Well
quod
Philyppe
/
ye

deuysing
/
but
I
feare
me
it
wyll
be
to
late
.
Go
your
way
to
the
hoost
to
our
lodgynge
/
and
so
he
was
brought
to
the
lorde
of
Harsels
/
and
Philyppe
rode
forthe
to
Gaunt
ryght
pensyfe
/
in
suche
wyse
/
that
no
man
coude
haue
a
worde
of
hym
.
NOwe
let
vs
speke
of
the
frenche
kynge
/
and
let
vs
shewe
howe
he
parceyuered
.
Whan
he
harde
howe
that
the
passage
of
Comynes
was
won
/
and
the
bridge
newe
made
.
than
he
departed
fro
the
abbey
of
Marquettes
/
and
so
rode
forth
towardis
Comynes
/
in
good
order
euery
man
in
his
degre
.
So
the
kyng
came
the
same
tuysday
to
Comynes
/
and
he
and
his
vncles
lodged
in
the
towne
/
and
the
vowarde
was
dyslodged
/
and
went
and
lodged
on
the
mount
of
Ipre
.
and
so
all
his
people
and
caryage
passed
by
Comynes
and
Warnestone
.
And
on
the
wednisday
/
the
kynge
came
and
lodged
on
the
same
mount
of
Ipre
.
and
on
the
same
wednisday
the
rerewarde
passed
by
the
bridge
of
Comynes
/
wherin
was
two
thousande
men
of
armes
and
two
thousande
crosbowes
.
and
the
erle
of
Ewe
and
the
erle
of
Bloyse
/
the
erle
of
saynt
Powle
/
the
erle
of
Harcourt
/
the
lorde
of
Chatelon
and
the
lorde
of
sere
/
were
gouernours
of
them
.
And
whan
it
was
night
/
and
that
the
lordes
had
thoght
to
haue
rested
them
after
their
traueyle
/
there
fell
sodenly
a
larum
and
a
skrye
.
so
that
the
lordes
thought
surely
to
haue
had
batayle
/
&
thought
that
the
flemynges
of
Ipre
/
of
Cassell
/
and
of
Bergues
had
bene
gadred
togyder
/
and
come
to
gyue
them
batayle
.
than
these
lordes
armed
them
agayne
/
and
set
on
their
basse
nettes
/
and
set
forthe
their
baners
and
penons
/
and
ordred
their
men
/
euery
man
vnder
their
owne
ensygnes
.
Thus
they
stoode
nygh
all
nyght
/
in
the
myre
to
the
myde
legge
.
These
lordes
endured
moche
payne
/
as
the
erle
of
Bloyse
and
other
/
who
had
nat
bene
acustomed
to
suffre
such
cold
in
such
longe
nyghtes
/
as
in
Nouembre
/
but
they
suffred
it
for
their
honour
.
for
they
went
surely
to
haue
bene
fought
with
all
incontynent
/
but
all
was
nothing
/
for
the
skrye
arose
by
certayne
varlettes
amonge
them selfe
.
Howe
be
it
these
lordes
endured
this
payne
/
and
bare
it
as
well
as
they
myght
.
¶
Howe
the
towne
of
Ipre
and
dyuers
other
/
put
them selfe
vnder
the
obeysance
of
the
french
kyng
/

of

Cap.
CCCC

ANd
on
the
thursday
in
the
mornyng
the
rerewarde
dislodged
fro
comynes
/
and
drue
to
their
company
/
who
were
on
the
mount
of
Ipre
.
And
there
the
kyng
and
the
lordes
toke
counsayle
what
was
best
to
do
/
whether
they
shulde
go
before
Ipre
/
or
before
Courtrey
/
or
before
Bruges
.
in
the
meane
season
the
french
forangers
ran
ouer
the
countrey
/
and
they
founde
catayle
and
other
thynges
/
that
it
was
maruayle
to
consydre
.
for
after
they
were
ones
ouer
the
passage
at
Comynes
they
lacked
no
thynge
.
Whan
they
of
Ipre
sawe
the
kynge
with
all
his
puyssaunce
so
nere
them
/
and
the
passage
at
Comynes
conquered
they
were
nat
well
assured
of
them selfe
/
and
so
they
drewe
togyder
to
counsayle
.
The
rych
and
notable
men
of
the
towne
/
wolde
euer
that
they
shulde
haue
sent
to
crye
the
kyng
mercy
/
and
to
sende
hym
the
keyes
of
the
towne
.
but
the
capitayne
who
was
of
Gaunt
/
and
set
ther
by
Philyp
Dartuell
/
wold
in
no
wyse
that
they
shulde
yelde
.
sayng
sirs
:
our
towne
is
stronge
inough
and
well
prouyded
/
we
may
byde
a
siege
longe
ynogh
if
nedebe
.
and
in
the
meane
tyme
Philyppe
Dartuell
our
regent
wyll
gather
his
puyssance
/
and
come
and
fyght
with
the
kyng
/
and
rayse
the
siege
:
thinke
nat
the
contrary
.
The
other
answered
/
and
sayd
:
we
be
nat
in
surety
of
this
/
for
we
thynke
it
can
nat
lye
in
Philyppe
Dartuells
power
/
to
withstand
the
kyng
/
with
out
the
helpe
of
the
englysshmen
/
the
whiche
is
nothyng
lykely
.
therfore
we
thynke
it
were
best
to
yelde
vs
to
the
french
kyng
/
&
to
none
other
.
So
moche
rose
wordes
bytwene
than
/
that
they
rose
agaynst
the
capitayne
and
slewe
him
/
who
was
called
Peter
Uanelayre
.
And
whan
they
of
Ipre
hadde
done
this
dede
/
they
caused
two
freres
to
go
to
the
kynge
and
to
his
vncles
/
desyring
the
kyng
that
he
wolde
take
an
amyable
treaty
with
them
of
Ipre
.
The
kynge
than
by
the
aduyce
of
his
counsayle
/
gaue
saue
conduct
to
.xii.
of
them
of
Ipre
and
an
abbote
/
to
come
and
go
saue
/
to
knowe
what
wolde
be
their
desyre
/
than
the
frers
returned
to
Ipre
.
And
so
than
xii
.
were
chosen
out
in
the
towne
&
an
abbote
/
to
go
to
the
kyng
on
the
mount
of
Ipre
.
and
whan
they
came
before
the
kyng
they
kneled
downe
/
and
offred
hym
to
become
alwayes
vnder
his
obeysance
/
without
any
meane
or
reseruacion
.
The
kyng
than
by
the
consent
of
his
counsayle
/
as
he
that
thought
to
reduce
the
countrey
by
faire
meanes
if
he
myght
/
receyued
their
offre
/
on
a
condicyon
:
and
that
was
this
.
that
they
of
Ipre
shulde
pay
to
the
kynge
.xl.
thousande
frankes
towardes
his
charges
comynge
thyder
/
to
the
whiche
they
of
Ipre
made
no
refuse
/
but
were
ryght
ioyfull
therof
.
Thus
they
of
Ipre
were
taken
to
mercy
/
and
they
desyred
the
kyng
and
his
vncles
/
to
come
in
to
their
towne
to
refressh
them
/
wherof
they
sayd
all
the
towne
wolde
be
ryght
gladde
.
the
kyng
agreed
therto
/
consyderyng
howe
fro
thens
he
myght
go
in
to
Flaunders
/
to
whiche
parte
he
wolde
.
So
thus
they
of
Ipre
returned
in
to
their
towne
/
and
the
people
therof
were
right
ioyfull
/
whan
they
knewe
how
they
were
receyued
to
mercy
.
And
so
anon
this
.xl.
thousande
frankꝭ
was
gadered
among
them
/
and
payed
to
the
kynge
or
he
entred
in
to
Ipre
.
ALl
this
tyme
the
kynge
lay
styll
on
the
mount
of
Ipre
/
and
than
there
came
tydynges
to
him
/
howe
that
the
parysiens
rebelled
/
and
had
determyned
/
as
it
was
sayde
amonge
them selfe
/
to
haue
beaten
downe
the
castell
of
Beautye
/
standyng
in
the
wode
of
Uyncenes
.
and
also
the
castell
of
Lowre
/
and
all
the
strong
howses
about
Parys
/
to
th
entent
that
they
shulde
nat
be
greued
by
any
of
them
.
There
was
one
amonge
them
thought
to
haue
said
well
/
but
he
spake
right
yuell
:
as
it
apered
after
/
for
he
sayd
.
Sirs
:
let
vs
nat
do
thus
/
iyll
such
season
as
we
knowe
howe
the
kynge
our

/
in
his
iourney
in
Flaunders
.
if
they
of
Gaunt
come
to
their

as
we
trust
they

/
than
it
wyll
be
good
tyme
to
do
it
.
let
vs

begyn
a
thyng
and
afterwarde
repent
vs
.
He
that
sayde
this
/
was
called
Nycholas
the
flemynge
.
and
so
by
his
wordes
the
parysiens
seased
to
do
that
outrage
/
but
they
helde
them selfe
styll
in
Parys
/
and
prouided
for
all
thynges
.
as
harnes
and
other
abylmentꝭ
/
as
richely

as
though
they

And
they

solde
to
euery

beholde

se
what
a

fallen
/
if
the
kyng
&
the
noble
chiualry
that
was
with
hym
had
bene
discomfyted
in

it
may
be

shulde
haue
ben
deed
/
and
lost
in
all
Fraunce
/
&
as
well

The
rebellyon
called
the
Jaquery
/
was
neuer
so
great
nor
horible
as
this
was
likely
to
haue
bene
.
In
lykewise
at
Reynes

at
Chalons
in

and
on
the

of

the

Also
at

at
Beau

the

Nowe

And

whanne

all

toke
their

bounde

Than

Of

Somewhat

¶
Nowe
lette
vs

of
Philyppe
Dartuell
howe
he
parceyuered
.
He
hadde
great
desyre
to
fyght
with
the
kynge
/
and
that
he
well
shewed
/
for
he
came
to
Gaunt
/
and
there
he
ordeyned
that
euery
man
that
was
able
to
beare
armes
/
and
the
towne
kept
/
shulde
folowe
hym
.
euery
man
obeyed
him
/
for
he
made
them
to
beleue
that
by
the
grace
of
god
/
they
shuld
discomfyte
the
french
men
/
and
shuld
be
styll
lordes
of
Gaunt
/
and
of
dyuers
other
countreys
.
And
so
he
hadde
with
hym
out
of
the
towne
/
a
ten
thousande
men
in
harnes
/
for
the
arerebande
.
and
so
he
came
before
Courtrey
/
&
he
had
sent
to
Bruges
/
to
Audyn
/
to
Ardanbourc
/
to
Sluse
/
and
to
the
four
mestyers
/
and
to
the
chatelayne
of
Grantmont
/
Teremonde
/
&
Aloys
.
and
so
he
raysed
among
th●m
a
.xxx.
thousade
/
and
so
lodged
one
nyght
before
Andewarpe
/
and
the
next
day
he
departed
and
went
before
Courtrey
/
and
he
hadde
in
his
company
a
fifty
thousande
men
in
harnes
.
TJoynges
came
to
the
kynge
and
to
the
lordes
of
Fraunce
/
that
Philyppe
Dartuell
and
his
puyssance
aproched
fast
towarde
them
and
it
was
said
the
he
had
in
his
company
a
threscore
thousande
men
.
Than
the
vowarde
departed
fro
Jore
and
the
reregarde
/
and
all
the
hoost
.
Whyle
the
lordes
were
thus
in
the
feldes
they
endured
moch
payne
/
for
it
was
in
the
hart
of
wynter
/
in
the
begynnig
of
December
/
and
it
rayned
nygh
euery

.
the
lordes
were
fayne
to
lye
euery
nyght
in
the
hygh
wayes
/
for
euery
houre
they
loked
for
batayle
.
For
it
was
dayly
said
in
the
hoost
/
howe
their
enemyes
commeth
to
morowe
/
and
that
was
sayde
by
the
foragers
that
went
dayly
forthe
a
foragyng
.
the
kynge
was
lodged
in
the
myddes
of
his
felde
a
monge
his
men
.
And
in
that
Philyppe
Dartwell
and
his
company
taryed
so
long
or
he
came
/
the
lordes
of
Fraunce
were
sore
dyspleased
/
for
the
wether
was
soo
sore
/
that
they
wolde
fayne
the
mater
had
bene
determyned
.
With
the
kyng
was
the
floure
of
all
chiualry
of
Fraunce
.
Philyp
Dartuell
and
the
flemynges
were
to
proude
/
whan
they
were
so
hardy
to
fight
with
the
kyng
.
for
if
they
had
leyen
styll
at
the
siege
before
Andwarde
/
and
a
fortefyed
them selfe
there
/
and
by
the
reason
of
the
rayne
/
and
foule
wether
that
fell
.
The
frenchmen
wolde
neuer
haue
gone
to
haue
fought
with
them
there
/
and
if
they
had
/
they
coulde
nat
lightly
haue
fought
with
them
/
but
to
their
great
payne
and
parell
.
But
Philyppe
glorifyed
so
in
his
fayre
fortune
and
victory
/
that
he
had
before
Bruges
/
that
it
semed
to
him
/
that
no
thynge
coude
go
agaynst
hym
/
for
he
hoped
well
to
be
lorde
of
all
the
worlde
.
this
was
all
his
ymaginacyon
/
for
he
doughted
nothyng
the
french
kyng
/
nor
all
his
puyssance
/
for
if
he

he
wolde
nat

Of

howe
they
ordeyned
their

all

company
.
Cap.
CCCC
.xix.
THe
Wednisday
at
night
that
the
batayle
was
the
next

/
Philyp
Dartuell
with
all
his
puyssance
came
and
lodged
in
a
fayre
grounde
/
right
stronge
bytwene
a
dike
and
a
lytell
groue
of
woode
with
a
strong

so
that
lightly
no
man
coulde
come
well
at
them
.
And
this
was
bytwene
the
hyll
and
Rosebeque
,
where
as
the
kyng
lay
.
The
same
night
Philyppe
Dartuell
made
a
supper
in
his
lodgyng
to
all
his
capitayns
right
plenteous
/
for
they
had
prouisyon
ynoughe
folowynge
them

and
after
supper
/
he
sayd
to
them
.
faire
sirs
:
ye

/
I

we

nowe
I

kepe
faythe

/
and
be
nat
abasshed
of
any
thyng
that
ye

or

/
for
this
that
we
do
is
in
the
vpholdynge
of
our
ryght
/
and
lette
vs
frely
fyght
/
to
mayntayn
the
iurisdictyons
of
Flaunders
.
Admonyst
your

to
do

their

/
and
ordre
them
so
well
and
wisely
/
that
by
our
good
order
and
array
we
may
haue
the
victory
of
the
iourney
to
morowe
.
by
the
grace
of
god
we
shall
fynde
no
lorde
that
dare
fyght
agaynst
vs
in
the
felde
/
and
it
shall
be
more
honoure
for

/
than
though
we
had
comfort
of
the
englisshmen
/
for
if
they
were
in
our
company
/
they
shulde
haue
the
renome
/
and
nat

.
Also
say
to
your
company
that
they
saue
no
parsone
alyue
/
&
so
therby
we
shall
lyue
in
rest
/
for
here
is
with
the
kynge
all
the
floure
of
Fraunce
/
there
is
none
lest
be
hynde
.
Wherfore
I
commaunde
on
payne
of
deth
that
no
man
take
any
prisoner
without
it
be
the
kynge
hymselfe
/
for
I
wolde
he
were
saued
/
for
he
is
but
a
chylde
〈…〉
e
ought
to
be
pardoned
/
he
knoweth
nat
yet
what
he
dothe
/
but
as
he
is
led
/
we
shall
bring
hym
to
Gaunt
to
lerne
to
speke
flemysshe
.
but
as
for
dukes
/
erls
/
and
other
parsones
/
slee
them
all
.
The
comons
in
Fraunce
wyll
nat
be
dyspleased
there
with
/
for
I
am
in
surety
they
wolde
that
none
of
them
shuld
returne
agayne
in
to
Fraunce
/
and
no
more
I
trust
they
shall
.
All
such
as
were
with
Philyppe
at
this
supper
/
acorded
to
his
opinyon
/
and
so
answered
with
one
voice
/
and
sayd
.
Sir
:
ye

and
thus
it
shal
be
done
/
than

of

and
retourned
to
their
lodginges
to
their

to
shewe
them
as
ye
haue
harde
before
.
Thus
passed
the
nyght
in
the
hoost
with
Philyppe
dartuell
/
but
about
midnyght
as
I
was
enfourmed
/
there
fell
in
their
hoost
a
maruaylous
thynge
/
I
neuer
harde
of
none
lyke

THus
whanne
the
flemynges
were

/
howbeit
they
knewe
well
their

As
I
was
enfourmed
/
Philyp
Dartuell
had
brought
a

with

out

Gaunt

and
as
Philyppe
lay

slept
on

besyde
a

/
this

she
loked
towarde
Rosebeque
/
and
she
sawe
in
the
skye
dyuers
fumes

/
it
was
of
the

that
the

Of

she
was
sore
afrayed

and
so
entred

sodenly
awaked

/
I

with
those
wordis
he
rose
and
cast
on
a
gowne
/
and
toke
his
axe
in
his
hande
and
yssued
out
of

And

As

euery

arose

They

If

Howbeit

EUer

And

They

they
ordered
their
batayle
all
in
one
company
/
and
by
the
report
of
their
constables
/
they
were
to
the
nombre
of

thousande
chosen
men
/
who
dyde
sette

lytell
by

Also
there
were
a
threscore
archers
englysshmen
stolen
away
fro
Calys
/
thynkyng
to
haue
more
profyte
by
Philyppe
Dartuell
.
So
thus
euery
thyng
was
ordred
/
their
cariage
/
women

and
varlettes
.
and
Philyppe
Dartuell
had
his
page
by
hym
on
a
good
courser

worthe
to
a
great
lorde
fyue
hundred

He
had
hym
nat
by
hym
/
to
the
entent
to
flye
away
or
to
steale
fro
his
company
/
but
it
was
the
gretter
therby
to
shewe
his
estate
and
to
mount
on
hym
if
nede
were
to
folowe
the
chase
of
the
frenchmen
.
He
had
of
the
towne
of
Gaunt
about
a
nyne
thousande
men
well
armed
whom
he
kept
euer
about
his
owne
person
/
for
he
had
more
truste
in
them
than
in
any
other
.
&
he
and
they
with
their
baners
were
in
the
formast
front
/
and
they
of
Aloyes
and
Grantmont
next
them
.
And
than
they
of
Courtrey
/
of
Bruges
/
of
Danne
/
of
Scluse
/
and
of
Franke
/
who
were
armed
the
moost
partie
with
malles

chapeause
of

and
hocquetons
&
gantlettes
of
steele
and
baleyne
/
eche
of
the
bearynge
a
stake
typped
with
yron
.
These
townes
had
difference
in
armes
and
lyuereis
/
to
knowe
one
company
fro
another
.
Some
had
cotes
of
yelowe
&
blue
/
some
with
blacke
bandes
on
reed
cootes
/
some
bordered
with
whyte
on
blewe
cotes

some
planted
with

Sōelosenged
with

some

some

and
their
baners
accordyng
to
their
craftes

with
great
holmesses
hangynge
at

So
thus
they
taryed
for
the
day

was

I

shewe

THe

sawe
well
ther

for
ther

no

The

that

Euery

And
drue

Howbeit
in
the
bowarde
they
had
many
horses
for

and
to

.
Thus
this

the
frenche

&
at

the

The

Philyppe
Dartuell
had
thus
ordred
his
men
and
sette
his
batayle
in
arraye

and
shewed
theym
what
they
shulde
do

Than
he
made
out
a
wynge

suche
as
he
best
trusted

and
by
him
was
his

he
sayd
Go

whan

Nowe
beholde

that
was

whanne
he
depatrted
in
the
mornynge
out
of

For
it
is
to
be
thought

that
the

wolde
neuer

fought

for
they
coulde

So

who
came

And
so
than
the

departed

went
in

some

but
tha●
in

Howe
be
it
dyuers
reasons
consydered

finally
it
was
determyned
to
be
displayed
as
than
/
by
cause
the
flemynges
helde
the
opynion
contrarie
to
pope
Clement

And
therfore
the

called

wherfore
they
sayde
they
were
hery●●kes

oute
of

That
was
the
chyefe
cause
that
it
was
borne

displayed
in
Flaunders

This
Ori●●ambe
is
a
precyous
baner

and
was
sent
first
fro
heuyn
for
a
great
mysterie
/
the
whiche
was
euer
a
great
comfort
to
them
that
sawe
it

And
the

daye
it
shewed
some
of

for
all
the

there
was
a

But
as

the

brake
away

the
skye
was
as

The

were
greatlye
reioysed

that
they

this
greatly

it
was
great
beautie

And
behelde
well
the

IWas
as

enfourmed
of
the

/
who
shewed
me
/
howe
that
he
was
there

sawe
it

and
so
dyde
dyuers

That
whan
the
Oriflambe
was
displayed
and
the
myst
gone
away
.
There
came
a
doue
and
made
dyuers
flyghtes
ouer
the
kynges
batayle
.
and
a
lytell
before
they
fought
/
she
sat
downe
on
one
of
the
kynges
baners
/
the
whiche
euery
manne
toke
for
a
good
token
.
so
thus
aproched
the
flemynges
and
began
to
shote
gonnes
and
arowes
fethered
with
steele
.
Thus
the
batayle
began
the
whiche
was
right
sharpe
&
feirse
at
the
first
encountryng
.
for
the
flemyngis
set
on
proudly
thrustyng
With
their
speares
&
shulders
lyke
wylde
●o

/
and
they
helde
themselfe
so
close
toguyder
that
they
coulde
nat
be
opyned

ther
was
with
the
shot
of
the
gonnes
at
the
fyrst
thrust
slayne
/
of
the
french
parte
/
the
lorde
Del●●rwyn
baneret
/
Morlette
of
Harwyn
/
and
James
Dorre
/
and
so
therwith
the
kynges
batayle
was
reculed
/
but
the
vowarde
and
the
arerewarde
passed
on
forth
/
and
enclosed
about
the
flemynges
/
and
helde
theym
strayte
/
I
shall
shewe
you
howe
.
On
these
two
wynges
the
men
of
armes
fersly
assawted
/
with
their
stronge
speares
well
heeded
with
heedis
of
fyne
stele
/
wherwith
they
persed
the
flemynges
cotes
of
mayle
in
to
the
harde
bones
/
so
that
the
flemynges
were
glad
to
eschewe
the
strokes
.
So
thus
these
men
of
armes
kept
the
flemynges
so
short
/
that
they
coude
nat
well
helpe
them selfe
/
nor
put
downe
their
armes
to
gyue
any
strokes
.
So
there
were
many
that
lost
their
strength
and
brethe
/
and
fell
one
vpon
a
●other
/
&
so
dyed
for
lacke
of
breth
with
out
strikyng
of
any
stroke
.
And
ther
was
Philyppe
Dartuell
wounded
and
beaten
downe
amonge
his
men
of
Gaunt
/
and
whan
his
page
with
his
horse
/
sawe
the
discomfyture
of
his
mayster
/
he
departed
and
lefte
his
mayster
/
for
he
coulde
nat
helpe
hym
/
and
so
rode
to
Courtray
towardes
Gaunt
.
THus
these
batayls
assembled
to
gyder
.
So
the
●lemynges
batayle
was
inclosed
on
bothe
sydes
/
so
that
they
coulde
passe
no
way
/
than
the
kynges
batayle
came
forth
agayne
the
whiche
was
before
a
lytell
drawen
a
backe
.
The
men
of
armes
beate
downe
the
flemynges
on
euery
syd●
/
some
had
good
axes
of
stele
/
wher
with
they
brake
a
sonder
bassenetes
/
and
some
had
malles
of
leade
.
wherwith
they
gaue
suche
strokes
/
that
they
beat
all
downe
to
the
erthe
be
fore
them
/
and
as
the
flemynges
were
beaten
downe
/
there
were
pages
redy
to
cut
their
throtes
/
with
great
knyues
/
and
so
slewe
them
with
out
pytie
/
as
though
they
had
bene
but
dogges
/
the
strokes
on
the
bassenetes
were
so
great
that
no
man
coulde
here
other
speke
for
noyse

I
harde
reported
that
though
all
the
armorers
of
Bareys
/
and
Brusels
hadde
bene
workynge
toguyder
/
coulde
nat
haue
made
so
great
a
noyse

There
were
some
that
aduaunced
so
sore
in

the
prease
that
they
were
s●ayn

ouercome
for

sir
Fleton
of

was

so

coulde

without

for
yong
knightes
and
squiers
wyll
lightly
auaunce
them selfe

and
the
prease
was
so
great
and
the
besynesse
so
parylous
/
that
whan
they
were
in
the
thicke
of
the
prease
/
they
coude
nat
releue
them selfe

but
were
troden
vnder

and
so
by
that
meanes
there
were
dyuers
of
the
frenchmen
slayne

to
no

The
●lemyngꝭ

And
whanne

THus

And
the

And
after
this
discomfyture

the
whiche
was
right
honourable
for

For

there
had
neuer

For

What
thynke
you
that
they
of

wolde
saye
/
whan
they
knewe
of
this
disconfyture
?
I
thynke
they
were
nothynge
ioyfull
therof
.
thus
whan
this
batayle
was
atchyued
/
at
laste
they
left
the
chase
/
and
trumpettes
sowned
the
retrait
.
And
so
euery
man
drewe
to
his
lodgynge
/
and
the
vowarde
lodged
forwarde
/
there
as
the
flemynges
had
lyen
the

And
there
toke
their
ease
&
were
well
refresshed
/
for
newe
purueyaunce
came
to
them
fro
Ipre
.
And
so
the
night
they
made
great
fyres
/
with
suche
pauesses
and
staues
as
the
flemynges
had
broughte
to
the

And
whan
the
kyng
was
in
his
lodgynge
/
there
was
pyght
vp
a
pauilyon
of
crymasyn
sendall
right
noble

And
there
the

vncles
〈…〉ed
hym

and
dyuers
other
lordes
of
Fraunce
came
thyder
to
se
hym
as
reason
requyred

Than
the
kynge
sayde
to
them
that
were

Sirs
/
if
Philyppe
Dartuell
be
a
lyue

I
wolde
fayne

they
answered

howe
they
wolde
do
their
payne
that
he
shulde

And
thanne
there
was
made
a

throughe
the
hoost

that
who
soeuer
coude
fynde
Philyppe
Dartuell

shulde
haue
a

Than
there
were
many
that
went
among
the
deed
bodyes
/
who
were
nyghe
dispoyled
of
all
their

At
laste
ther
was
suche
serche
made

that
he
was
founde

knowen

by
a
varlette
that
had
serued
hym
longe
tyme
before

&
he
knewe
hym
very
well
by
dyuers
tokens
.
So
he
was
drawen
and
brought
before
the
kynges
pauylyon
.
And
the
kyng
behelde
hym
a
longe
space
and
so
dyde
all
thother
lordes
.
And
he
was
turned
and
retourned

to
se
what
hurtes
or
woundes
he
had
/
but
they
coude
se
no
wounde
wherby
he
shuld
dye

But
it
was
iudged
that
he
fell
in
a

dyke

and
a
great
meny
of
the
gauntoyse
on
hym

wherby
he
was
pressed
to
dethe

And
so
whan
they
had
well
regarded
hym
/
than
at
last
he
was
taken
fro
thens
and
hanged
vpon
a

This
was
the

of
Philyp
Dartuell

Late

The

howe
that

And
as

toke

And
whan

knewe

they
issued

The

at

Bruges
of

Lo

If
the

we
shall
all
be
pylled

than
the

In

And
so
determyned

Cap.
CCCC
.xxiiii.
THe
bretons
and
they
of

shewed
well
by
their
demeanoure

that
they
hadde
great
desyre
to
go
to
Bruges

to

The

who

He
had
pytie
on

sayde
to
his

the
Duke

Sir

if

For
if

bretons
/
it
shall
neuer
be
recouered
agayne
/
but
lost
for
euer
.
the
duke
agreed
well
therto
.
Thus
whyle
the
kyng
lay
at
Courtrey
/
they
of
Bruges
lyued
in
great
feare
/
and
wyst
nat
what
to

/
outher
to
avoyde
the
towne
/
or
els
to
abyde

aduenture
.
And
so
at
last
they
determyned
to
sende
two
freres
to
the

to
Courtrey
/
to
obtayne
a

/
to

These
two
freres
came
to
Curtrey
and
spake
with
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
and
with
the
erle
of

who
molefyed
the

The
kyng
graunted
for

.
So
thus
these
freres
retourned
to
Bruges
.
And
so
twelfe
of
their
burgesses
departed
and
went
to
Courtrey
/
to
the
kynge
and
to
his
vncles
.
They
kneled
downe
on
their
knees
before
hym
and
sayd
.
Sir
/
we

yor
grace
to
take

accepte

at

.
But
sir
/
for
goddessake
haue
pytie
of

Let

the

be
distroyed
nor

.
For
sir
/
yf
it
be
distroyed
/
many
good
men
are
vtterly
vndone
for
euer
.
And
sir
/
in
that
we
haue
ben
contrarie
to
oure
naturall
lorde
/
it
was
by
the
puissaunce
of
Philyppe
Dartuell
and
of
the
gauntoyse
.
For
and
that
hadde
nat
bene
/
the
towne
of
Bruges
hadde
benefull
trewe
to
their
lorde
.
The
kynge
entended
well
to
their
wordes
/
by
the
meanes
of
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
who
was
there
present
.
Who
kneledde
downe
before
the
kynge
/
and
desyredde
to
haue
mercy
for
theym
.
Than
it
was
shewed
theym
/
that
to
apease
the
bretons
and
the
menne
of
warre
lyenge
in
the
feldes
/
bytwene
Courounte
and
Bruges
/
that
it
muste
behoue
theym
to
paye
some
certayne
some
of
money
.
and
so
there
was
comunyng
on
that
mater
/
and
it
was
demaunded
of
them
to
pay
two
hundred
thousande
frankes
.
So
at
last
it
was
determyned
that
they
shulde
pay
sixe
score
thousande
frankꝭ
/
thre
score
thousande
in

/
and
the
resydue

next

and
so
therby
to
lyue
in
rest

peace
/
and
clerly
to
become
liegmen
to
the
french
kyng
/
and
to
owe
to
hym
faythe
homage
and
obeysaunce
.
Thus
the
good
towne
of
Bruges
abode
in
peace
/
and
nat
robed
nor
pylled
/
wherwith
the
bretons
were
ryght
sore
displeased
/
for
they
had
thought
to
haue
had
great
profyte
therby
.
so
that
some
of
them
sayd
/
whan
they
sawe
that
the
peace
was
made
/
and
lykely
to
haue
no
more
warre
.
This
warre
of
Flaunders
is
no
thyng
profytable
for
vs
/
for
we
haue
lytle
aduauntage
therby
.
let
vs
returne
in
to
our
countrey
/
but
let
vs
go
through
Haynalt
/
for

Aubert
who
hath
the

there
/
came
nat
to
ayde
nor
to
helpe
his
cosyn
th
erle
of
Flaunders
/
but
hath
dissymuled
with
hym
.
wherfore
it
is
good
that
we
go
and
vyset
hym
/
for
he
hathe
a
good
countrey
and
a
fat
/
we
shall
●ynd

/
and
so
let
vs
recouer

So
there
were
all

hundred

O

ieopardy
the

but
the
knowledge
therof
came
to
the
gentyll

who
was

And

Than
to

he
aduaunced

Howe

And

And
heshewed

Also

For

But
hath
serued
the

in
this

well

truely
/
with
the
barones

therof
.
And
also
or

and
there
aduentured

So

And

Affirmyng

howe
he
had
a

so
to

but
whan

he
defended

the
flemynges
was
broken
.
And
howe
the
french
kyng
departed
out
of
Flaunders
.
Cap.
CCCC
.xxv.
YE
haue
herde
before
:
howe
sir
Willyam
Fermeton
was
at
Calys
/
sent
thyder
by
the
kyng
of
Englande
and
by
his
counsayle
/
and
brought
letters
with
hym
to
haue
bene
sealed
by
the
good
townes
of
Flaunders
.
Makynge
men●yon
of
great
alyaunces
/
to
be
taken
bytwene
th
englysshmen
and
the
flemynges
.
And
at
Calais
with
hym
was
styll
Fraunces
Atreman
and
sixe
burgesses
of
Gaunt
.
and
whan
tidynges
came
to
them
of
the
discomfyture
at
Rosebeque
/
they
were
sore
abasshed
.
and
the
englisshe
knight
sawe
well
that
he
had
no
more
to
do
/
to
entre
any
farther
in
to
Flaunders
.
For
he
sawe
well
that
the
treatie
was
broken
.
So
he
toke
the
letters
vnsealed
/
and
retourne
in
to
Englande
agayne
assoone
as
he
might
/
and
so
shewed
the
mater
howe
it
was
fallen
.
Wherof
the
gentylmen
of
the
countre
were
nat
greatly
displeased
.
For
they
sayd
and
also
say
yet
:
that
if
the
comons
of
Flaunders
had
wonne
the
vyctorie
/
and
that
the
noble
men
of
Fraunce
had
ben
slayne
.
The
pride
of
the
comons
in
euery
countre
wolde
haue
ben
so
great
/
that
all
noble
men
shulde
haue
repented
it
/
The
whiche
was
well
sene
but
a
lytell
before
in
Englande
.
wherfore
of
the
losse
of
the
flemynges
there
was
but
lytell
thought
taken
.
And
whan
they
of
Flaunders
/
suche
as
had
ben
in
Englande
with
Fraunces
Atreman
knewe
these
tidyngis
/
it
was
right
greuous
to
them
.
And
so
departed
by
water
and
arryued
at
Mydelborowe
in
zelande
/
&
suche
as
were
of
Gaunt
retourned
to
Gaunt
/
and
euery
man
home
to
their
owne
townes
.
And
Fraunces
Atreman
and
his
company
beyng
at
Calis
departed
and
went
to
Gaunt
/
but
that
was
nat
as
long
as
the
frenche
kyng
was
in
Flaunders
.
but
as
I
was
enfour●●ed
they
retourned
by
zelande
.
In
the
same
season
that
the
frenche
kyng
lay
at
Courtrey
/
he
had
dyuers
counsayls
to
knowe
howe
he
shulde
parceyuer
in
his
warre
/
&
whether
he
shulde
go
and
ley
siege
to
Gaunt
or
nat
.
The
kyng
was
well
wyllyng
to
haue
gone
thy●er
.
In
lykewise
so
were
the
bretons
and
burgonyons
.
But
the
lordes
consydred
:
howe
it
was
in
the
moneth
of
Decembre
and
in
the
deed
tyme
of
wynter
/
and
dayly
it
rayned
.
Wherfore
they
thought
it
was
no
good
hostyng
tyll
somer
season
.
And
also
they
sawe
well
howe
their
horses
were
but
feble
/
by
reason
of
the
colde
season
/
and
the
ryuers
great
and
large
about
Gaunt
.
Wherfore
they
thought
but
a
lost
tyme
to
ley
any
sege
there
.
And
also
the
lordes
were
wery
&
sore
traueyled
/
with
so
long
lyeng
in
the
feldes
/
in
that
colde
tyme
and
tayny
.
So
all
thynges
consydred
/
it
was
determyned
that
the
kynge
shulde
go
to
Tourney
/
and
there
to
refresshe
him
and
to
kepe
his
Christmas
.
And
they
of
farr
countreis
/
as
of
Auuergne
/
of
Dolphyn
/
of
Sauoy
&
of
Burgoyne
/
shulde
returne
home
into
their
owne
countreis
fayre
&
easely
.
And
the
bretons
normayns
/
and
frenchmen
/
shulde
abyde
styll
with
the
constable
to
attende
on
the
kyng
.
for
it
was
thought
/
that
they
shulde
haue
some
busynesse
with
the
parisyens
/
who
had
newly
forged
a
great
nombre
of
malles
.
wherfore
they
thought
to
set
another
rule
and
order
amonge
them
.
And
whan
the
kynge
shulde
departe
fro
Courtrey
/
he
and
his
counsayle
forgate
nat
the
gylt
spurres
that
they
founde
in
a
churche
there
in
Courtray
/
the
whiche
of
olde
tyme
parteyned
to
the
noble
men
of
Fraunce
/
somtyme
slayne
with
erle
Robert
of
Arthoyse
/
at
the
batayle
of
Curtrey
.
So
than
the
kyng
ordayned
that
at
his
departyng
the
towne
shulde
be
set
a
fyre
/
&
distroyed
.
Whan
the
knowledge
therof
came
to
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
he
thought
to
haue
founde
some
remedy
therfore
.
And
so
came
before
the
kyng
and
kneled
downe
/
and
requyred
hym
to
do
none
yuell
to
the
towne
of
Curtrey
.
The
kyng
answered
/
howe
that
surely
he
wolde
nat
here
his
request
.
And
so
th
erle
durst
speke
no
more
of
that
mater
/
but
so
departed
and
went
to
his
logyng
Before
they
fyre
began
/
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
caused
an
horaloge
to
be
taken
downe
/
the
moost
fayrest
and
goodlyest
that
coude
be
founde
on
that
syde
of
the
see
.
The
whiche
horaloge
was
taken
downe
by
peces
and
layed
in
chares
/
and
the
bell
also
.
And
after
/
it
was
caryed
to
Diyon
in
Burgoyne
/
and
there
it
was
sette
vp
.
&
there
sowneth
the
.xxiiii.
houres
of
the
day
and
night
.
AT
the
departyng
of
the
kyng
fro
Courtrey
/
the
towne
was
clene
distroyed
and
brent
.
And
the
knyghtes
/
squyers
/
and
men
of
warre
/
toke
some
of
the
men
/
women
/
and
chyldren
to
raunsome
.
And
so
the
kyng
rode
&
came
to
Turney
/
and
was
lodged
in
the
abbey
of
saint
Martyne
.
and
they
of
the
towne
dyde
great
reuerence
to
the
kynge
/
as
reason
requyred
.
And
all
they
of
the
towne
were
arayed
in
whyte
/
with
thre
barres
of
grene
on
the
one
syde
.
The
cytie
was
deuyded
to
lodge
the
lordis
.
The
kyng
lay
at
saynt
Martyns
/
and
his
company
had
one
quarter
of
the
towne
.
The
duke
of
Berry
was
lodged
in
the
bysshoppes
lodginge
/
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
at
the
crowne
/
the
duke
of
Burbone
at
the
golden
heed
/
the
constable
at
saynt
James

.
Ther
was
a
cry
made
in
the
kingis
name
on
payne
of
dethe
/
no
man
to
do
any
hurt
to

and
that
no

/
and
that
none
entre
in
to
the
countie
of
Heynaulte
/
to
do
any

there
.
All
these
thynges
were
well
kept
and
holden
/
there
the
lordes
refresshed
them
well
.
And
they
of
the

countreis
departed
and
retourned
homewarde
/
some
by

/
some

and

The

and

/
and
of
his

th

and

.
And
he
lay
a
day
and
a
nyght
at
.
Ualencennes
/
wher
he
was
well
refresshed
.
For
he
had
achyued
entierly
the
loue
of

good
people
of

/
for
the
seruyce
that
he

and
howe

Cap.
CCCC

IN
lykewise
the
erle
of
Marche
and
sir
James
of
Burbone
his
brother
/
departed
fro
Tourney
and
went
to
refresshe
them
at
Scluse
in
Heynault
/
on
their
owne
herytages
.
Sir
Guy
de
lauall
breton
went
to
Cheure
in
Heynault
/
wher
he
had
parte
of
enherytaunce
:
for
he
and
sir
Robert
of
Namure
were
lordis
therof
.
And
the
lorde
of
Coucy
went
to
Mortayn
on
the
ryuer
of
Lescalt
/
and
there
refresshed
hym
and
his
company
/
but
for
the
most
parte
he
hym selfe
was
with
the
kyng
at
Turney
.
The
erle
of
saynt
Poule
had
commissyon
to
chastyce
the
Urbanystes
/
wherof
ther
were
many
in
that
towne
.
And
so
he
founde
many
/
and
euer
as
he
founde
them
in
the
churche
of
our
lady
or
els
where
:
they
were
taken
&
put
in
prison
and
sore
rausomed
.
And
by
that
meanes
/
the
erle
of
saynt
Poule
gathered
toguyder
in
a
shorte
season
/
more
than
seuyn
thousande
frankes
.
For
there
was
none
that
scaped
hym
/
but
that
payed
or
founde
good
suretie
to
paye
.
And
whyle
that
the
kyng
lay
at
Tourney
/
they
of
Gaunt
had
a
saueconduct
to
go
and
come
/
and
to
entreate
for
a
peace
.
But
in
all
their
treaties
they
were
as
harde
and
as
proude
/
as
thoughe
they
had
won
the
vyctorie
of
the
batayle
of
Rosebeque
.
They
sayd
they
wolde
gladly
put
them selfe
vnder
the
obeysaunce
of
the
frenche
kyng
/
to
holde
of
hym
/
and
to
haue
their
resort
to
the
court
of
Parys
.
But
they
sayd
/
they
wolde
neuer
haue
nor
take
to
their
lorde
the
erle
Loyes
.
For
they
sayde
/
they
coude
neuer
loue
hym
/
bycause
of
the
great
domages
that
they
had
receyued
by
hym
and
by
his
meanes
.
All
that
euer
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
coude
do
/
coude
neuer
tourne
them
fro
that
opinyon
:
They
wolde
neuer
make
other
answere
/
butsayde
.
Thoughe
they
had
lyued
this
two
or
thre
yere
/
in
payne
/
trouble
/
and
daunger
.
yet
they
trusted
at
laste
/
to
recouer
it
/
and
to
bringe
vp
their
towne
agayne
/
in
to
great
prosperyte
and
welthe
.
than
it
was
shewed
them
/
they
might
departe
whan
they
lyst
.
And
so
they
departed
fro
Tourney
and
retourned
to
Gaunt
:
and
so
the
mater
hanged
styll
in
warre
.
The
frenche
kyng
and
his
lordis
toke
great
payne
/
to
cause
the
countie
of
Flaunders
to
be
good
Clementyns
/
&
to
obey
to
pope
Clement
.
But
the
good
townes
and
churches
were
so
sore
anexed
and
bounde
to
the
opinyon
of
pope
Urbane
/
that
they
coude
nat
be
turned
.
Th
erle
of
Flaunders
hym selfe
was
of
the
same
opinyon
/
and
so
they
answered
by
the
counsayle
of
th
erle
to
take
aduyce
/
and
to
answere
detmynatly
by
the
feest
of
Ester
:
and
so
thus
the
matter
hanged
.
The
kynge
kept
his
Christmas
at
Turney
/
and
whan
the
kyng
departed
/
he
ordayned
the
lorde
of
Guystell
to
be
capitayn
of
Bruges
/
the
lorde
of
saynt
Pye
at
Ipre
/
&
the
great
lorde
of
Guystell
to
be
regarde
of
Flaunders
/
&
sir
John
of
Jumont
to
be
capitayne
at
Courtrey
.
And
he
sent
two
.
C.
speres
bretons
and
other
in
garyson
to
Andeburge
.
&
to
Andwarpe
he
sent
sir
Wyllm
of
Langhien
and
about
a.
C.
speares
with
hym
in
garyson
.
Thus
the
garysons
of
Flaunders
were
purueyed
for
to
kepe
garyson
warr
all
wynter
/
and
none
otherwise
tyll
the
next
somer
.
These
thynges
thus
ordred
/
the
kynge
departed
fro
Tourney
and
went
to
Arras
and
his
vncles
with
hym
/
and
the
Erle
of
Flaunders
in
his
company
.
The
kyng
taryed
at
Arras
/
&
the
cytie
was
in
a
great
aduenture
to
haue
ben
ouer
ron
and
robbed
with
the
bretons
/
For
there
was
great
wages
owyng
to
them
.
Also
they
had
endured
great
traueyle
in
that
voyage
/
&
they
were
nat
well
content
with
the
kyng
it
was
great
payne
to
refrayne
them
fro
doyng
yuell
.
The
constable
and
marshals
of
Fraunce
apesed
them
/
promysyng
/
howe
they
shulde
be
clerely
payed
of
their
wages
whan
they
came
to
Parys
.
so
thus
the
kynge
departed
and
went
to
Peron
.
The
erle
of
Flaunders
toke
leaue
of
the
kyng
and
went
to
Lyle
.
so
long
the
kyng
iurneyed
that
he
passed
Peron
/
Noyon
/
and
Compayne
:
and
so
came
to
saynt
Lyse
and
there
rested
.
And
all
his
men
of
warre
were
lodged
in
the
vyllages
bytwene
saint
Lyse
and
Meaulx
in
Bry
/
and
on
the
ryuer
of
Marne
/
and
about
saynt
Denyce
:
so
that
all
the
countre
was
full
of
men
of
warre
.
And
so
than
the
kyng
departed
fro
saynt
Lyse
and
went
towarde
Paris
/
and
he
sent
before
his
officers
to
prepare
for
hym
his
lodgynge
/
at
the
castell
of
Loure
.
And
also
his
thre
vncles
sent
of
their
seruauntes
to
prepare
their
lodgynges
:
&
in
lykewise
so
dyd
other
lordis
.
And
all
this
was
done
for
a
cautell
and
wyle
/
for
the
kyng
nor
these
lordes
were
nat
determyned
to
entre
so
sodenly
in
to
Parys
/
for
they
douted
them
of
Parys
.
But
they
dyde
this
to
proue
what
countenance
&
order
they
of
Paris
wolde
make
at
the
kyngis
entre
/
they
thought
they
wold
make
this
assay
before
.
The
seruauntes
that
went
before
were
commaunded
to
say
/
if
any
man
demaunded
of
them
if
the
kyng
were
comyng
/
that
they
wolde
be
ther
incontynent
.
By
the
whiche
the
parisyens
aduysed
among
them selfe
to
be
armed
/
and
to
shewe
the
kyng
at
his
entre
what
puyssance
they
were
of
:
&
what
men
of
warr
they
were
able
to
make
to
serue
the
kyng
whan
it
pleased
him
.
but
they
had
ben
better
to
haue
sytten
styll
in
their
houses
/
for
the
shewe
that
they
made
was
conuerted
to
their
great
seruytude
/
as
ye
shall
here
after
.
Ther
sayd
they
dyde
it
for
good
/
but
it
was
taken
to
yuell
.
And
wher
as
the
kyng
shulde
haue
lodged
at
Lour
/
he
made
his

And
than
voyce
ran
thorough

how
the

Than

And

The

/
&
thider
to
them
was
broght
all
the

of
all
the

of

Than
the
lordes
sayde
.
A
/

the
pride
of

.
Wherfore
do

yf

in

whan

into
Flaunders
.
Thanne
had
they
done

but
they
hadde
no

They
rather
prayed

They
shulde
rather

and
haue

.
In
thankynge
god
of
the
vyctorie

that
the
kyng
had

Thus
the
lordes
were
abasshed

howe
they
shulde

Finally
it

that

And
demaunde

And

They
were
wyse
ynoughe
to

as

as

So
these
said
lordes
departed
fro
the
kyng
without

&
for
the
more
suretie
of
their
busynesse
/
they

Than
the
herauldes
retourned

the
lordes
/
and
shewed
them
as
ye

than
the
four
lordes

and
came

And
whan

than
they
rested

And
the
Constable
spake

We
were

But
sir

we
be
yssued
out
for
non

cause
/
but
to
shewe
the
kyng
what
puyssance
the
parisyens
be

.
The
kyng
is
but
yonge
he
neuer

/
and
without

it
he

nor

Sirs
quod
the
constable
/
ye
speke
well
.
But
we
saye
vnto

fro
the
kynge
/
that
as
at
this
tyme
he
wyll
not
se
you
in
this
maner
/
for
this
that
ye
haue
done
suffyseth
.
Therfore
we
counsayle
you
to
retourne
agayne
peaseably
to
Parys
/
euery
man
to
his
owne
lodgynge
and
do
of

/
if
ye

that
the
kynge
shall
come

.
Sir
quod
they
/
we
shall
with
right
a
good

fulfyll

And
so
therwith
they
all
retourned
in
to
Parys
/
euery
man
to
his
owne
house
to
vnarme
hym
.
And
the
sayde
four
lordes
retourned
to
the
kyng
/
and
shewed
vnto
hym
/
all
the
wordes
that
ye
haue
herde
before
.
Than
it
was
determyned
/
that
the
kyng
/
his
vncles
and
lordes
/
and
certayne
men
of
armes
with
them
/
shulde
entre
in
to
Parys
.
And
the
great
bande
to
●yde
without
the
cyte
rounde
about
/
to
gyue
the
more
feare
to
the
parisyens
.
And
the
lorde
of
Coucy
and
the
marshall
of
sanxere
were
ordayned
/
that
assoone
as
the
kynge
were
entred
in
to
Parys
/
that
they
shulde
take
downe
the
leaues
of
the
gates
of
the
four
princypals
of
the
cytie
/
towarde
saynt
Denyce
and
saynt
More
.
So
that
the
gates
myght
stande
open
day
&
night
/
for
all
maner
of
men
of
warr
to
entre
in
and
out
at
their
pleasur
/
to
th
entent
to
mayster
them
of
Parys
if
nede
were
.
And
also
/
they
to
take
downe
all
the
chenesse
in
euery
strete
/
to
ryde
in
and
out
at
their
pleasure
.
And
as
it
was
ordayned
so
it
was
done
.
And
so
the
kyng
entred
in
to
Parys
and
lodged
at
Loure
and
his
vncles
by
him
/
and
thother
lordes
in
dyuers
logynges
.
So
thus
the
gates
were
taken
out
of
the
gouges
&
layd
downe
on
the
grounde
/
and
the
chenesse
of
euery
strete
taken
downe
&
brought
in
to
the
palayes
.
Than
the
parisyens
were
in
great
dout
/
and
feared
that
they
shulde
be
ouer
ron
/
so
that
none
of
them
durst
loke
out
in
to
the
strete
/
nor
open
dore
nor
wyndowe
.
&
thus
they
were
a
thre
dayes
in
great
parell
and
feare
to
receyue
greatter
domage
/
as
they
dyd
.
for
it
cost
many
of
them
great
fynance
and
raū
some
.
For
they
were
called
in
to
the
chambre
of
counsayle
one
after
another
/
suche
as
the
lordis
wolde
haue
.
And
so
there
they
were
rausomed
/
some
at
sixe
thousande
frankes
/
some
at
thre
/
&
some
at
one
.
So
that
ther
was
leuyed
in
Parys
to
the
kynges
profyte
/
to
his
vncles
/
and
to
his
mynisters
/
the
some
of
foure
hundred
.
M.
frankes
.
Ther
was
nothyng
demaunded
of
the
poore
people
but
of
the
great
maysters
/
&
suche
as
might
bear
it
.
They
were
right
happy
that
might
escape
with
payeng
of
raunsome
.
And
euery
man
by
him self
/
was
fayne
to
bring
their
harnesse
in
sackes
to
the
castell
of
Beautie
/
other
wise
called
the
castell
of
Uycēnes
:
and
there
it
was
closed
in
a
great
towre
/
&
their
mals
also
.
thus
the
parisyens
were
delt●all
/
to
gyue
ensample
to
all
other
good
townes
of
France
.
and
ther
were
reysed
vp
:
subsydꝭ
/
gabels
/
aydꝭ
/
fouages
douzimes
/
trezimes
/
&
all
other
suche
thyngꝭ
.
&
also
/
all
the

about

¶
Howe
dyuers
notable
men
of
Paris
were
beheeded
with
mayster
Johan
Marettes
at
Parys
/
&
in
dyuers
other

of
Fraunce
:
and
of

the
gauntoise

agayne
.
Cap.
CCCC
.xxvii.
THere
were
also
diuers
taken
and
put
in
prison
and
many
drowned
.
and
than
to
apease
the
remynant
/
there
was
a
crye
made
in
the
cyte
/
that
none
on
payne
of
dethe
shuld
do
any
hurt
to
any
parisyen
/
nor
ro
〈…〉
nor
take
any
thynge
out
of
any
house
/
without
payeng
therfore
.
This
cry
apeased
greatly
them
of
the
cyte
.
Howe
be
it
on
a
day
/
there
were
dyuers
persones
ledde
out
of
the
castell
iudged
to
dye
for
their
defaulꝭ
/
&
for
styrring
vp
of
the
comons
.
Howbeit
there
was
great
marueyle
made
of
mayster
Johan
Marettes
/
who
was
reputed
and
renoumed
a
sage
and
a
notable
man
.
Some
said
he
had
wrong
to
be
iudged
to
dye
/
for
he
had
alwayes
bene
a
man
of
great
wysedome
and
good
counsayle
.
And
was
one
of
the
moost
autentyke

of

:
and
had
serued

Philyppe

Howe
be

.
And
as
he
was
caryed
on
a

to
the
place
of

.
He
spake
and
sayd
Where
be
they
that
hath
iudged
me
to
dye
?
Let
them
come
forthe
&
shewe
the
cause
why
.
Thus
he
preached
to
the
people
as
he
went
to
his
execusyon
.
The
people
had
great
pyte
on
him
/
but
they
durst
speke
no
worde
.
He
was
brought
to
the
markette
place
of
the
halles
/
and
there
first
were
beheeded
/
suche
as
were
brought
thyder

.
There
was
one
called
Nicholas
flamant
a

and
ther
was
offred
to
saue
his
lyfe
/
threscore
thousande
frankes
/
but
it
wolde
nat
be
taken
/
but
there
he
dyed
.
And
whan
they
came
to
mayster
Johan
Marettes
/
they
sayde
to
hym
.
Mayster
Johan
/
crye

Than
he
tourned

These

/
nor
no

the
kyng
that
nowe
is
wolde
haue
done
/
and
he
had
bene
at
his
full
age
/
and
of

knowledge
.
I
beleue
in
the
iudgyng
of
me
/
he
is
nothyng
culpable
.
I

And
so

so

After

maner

These

bycause

And

Peter

And
so
they
renewed
the

that
came
to
them
fro
dyuerscountreis

and
they
were
nothynge
abasshed

as
fresshe

And
the

They
determyned

And

Atreman

with
thre
thousande

so
came

The
Erle
of
Flaunders
beleued
well
all
these
sayenges
to
be
trewe
/
and
so
they
were
in

.
Than
he
began
to
ymagin
agaynst
this
John
Saplemon

and
on
th
englysshmen
dwellynge
in
Bruges
.
Than
he
caused

to
be
somoned
/
to
be
at
a
certayne
day
assigned
before

And
so
the

somoned
Johan

riche

/
or
they
were
ware

of
:
commaundynge
them
the
fyftene
day

to
be
with

Whan
the

herde

were
sore
abasshed
and
toke
counsayle
toguyder
/
hauyng
great
marueyle

why
the
Erle
shulde
sende

.
All
thynges
consydred
/
they
douted
gretlye
/
for
they
knewe
well
the
erle
was
fierse
and
fell
/
in
his
hast
.
Than
they
sayd
amonge
themselfe
.
He
that
kepeth
natte
his
body
kepeth
nothyng
.
We
dout
lest
the
erle
be
enfourmed
sore
agaynst
vs
.
For
with
Fraunces
Atreman
who
hath
a
pensyon
of
the
kyng
of
Englande
/
whan
he
was
in
Englande
/
there
was
with
hym
two
burgesses
of
this
towne
of
Bruges
.
And
parauenture
they
haue
made
some
enformacyon
agaynst
vs
to
th
erle
/
for
as
nowe
they
be
on
his
parte
.
So
on
this
purpose
rested
the
englysshemen
/
that
they
durst
nat
abyde
the
erles
iudgement
/
nor
to
go
to
Lyle
at
the
day
before
lymyted
.
So
they
departed
fro
Bruges
and
wente
to
Scluse
/
and
dyde
so
moche
that
they
founde
a
shyppe
redy
aparelled
.
And
so
they
bought
it
with
their
money
/
and
so
departed
and
sayled
/
tyll
they
arryued
at
London
.
And
whan
th
erle
of
Flaunders
was
enfourmed
of
this
mater
&
sawe
that
the
englysshmen
apered
nat
at
theyr
day
he
was
sore
displeased

and
sende
incontynent
to
Bruges
/
and
caused
to

all
that
euer
coude
be
founde
/
parteyninge
to
the
Englysshmen
/
and
all
their
herytages
gyuen

.
And
Johan
Saplemon
clene
banysshed
out
of
Flaunders
/
for
a
hundred
yere
&
one
day
and
his
companyons
/
&
such
as
were
taken
were
put
in
prisone
:
where
as
some
dyed
.
And
some
recouered
agayne
all
that
euer
they
had
lost
.
THere
is
a
comune
prouerbe
/
the
whiche
is
true
:
&
that
is
/
howe
enuy
neuer
byeth
.
I
say
it
/
bycause
englysshmen
are
right
enuyouse
of
the
welthe
of
other
/
and
alwayes
hath
ben
.
It
was
so
/
that
the
kyng
of
Englande
and
his
vncles
and
the
nobles
of
Englande
/
were
right
sore
displeased
of
the
welthe
and
honour
that
was
fallen
to
the
frenche
kynge
/
and
to
the
nobles
of
Fraunce
at
the
bataile
of
Rosebeque
.
And
the
knightes
of
Englandespake
and
sayd
to
eche
other
.
Ah
saynt
Mary
/
howe
the
frenchmen
are
nowe
mounted
in
pride
/
by
the
ouerthro
wyng
of
a
sort
of
rude
villayns
.
Wolde
to
god
Philyp
Dartuell
had
had
of
our
men
a
.ii.
M.
speares
&
sixe
.
M.
archers

Ther
had
nat
than
scaped
one
frenchmen
/
but
outher
slayne
or
taken
/
but
and
god
wyll
this
glorie
shall
nat
long
endure
them
.
Nowe
we
haue
a
fayre
aduauntage
to
entre
in
to
Flaunders
/
for
the
countre
is
nowe
conquered
for
the
french
kyng
:
&
we
trust
to
conquere
it
agayne
for
the
kynge
of
Englande
.
It
sheweth
well
at
this
tyme
/
that
the
erle
of
Flaunders
is
greatly
subget
to
the
frenche
kyng
/
and
that
he
wyll
please
hym
in
all
poyntis
.
whan
our
marchantes
dwellyng
in
Bruges
&
haue
dwelt
ther
beyonde
this

yere
be
nowe
banysshed
&
chased
out
of
Flaunders

the
tyme
hath
be

they
durst
nat
haue
done
it
:
but
nowe
they
dare
do
none
otherwyse
for

of
the
frenchemen
.
We
trust
it
shall
nat
abyde
longe
in
this
poynt
.
This
was
the
langage
among
th
englysshmen
through
the
realme
of
Englande
/
therfore
it
was
to
be
supposed
/
the
this
was
done
but
by
enuy
.
iN
this
season
/
he
that
wrote
hym selfe
pope
Urbane
the
sixt
/
came
by
the
see
fro
Rome
to
Gennes
/
where
as
he
was
well
receyued
and
reuerently
of
the
genoways
and
there
he
kept
his
resydens
.
ye
knowe
well
/
howe
all
England
was
obeysant
to
hym
/
aswell
the
churche
as
the
people
:
bycause
the
french
king
was
Clementyne
/
and
all
Fraunce
.
This
Urbane
/
on
whome
the
englysshemen
and
dyuers
other
countreis
beleued
:
He
beyng
at
Gennes
/
aduysed
howe
he
might
anoy
the
french
kyng
/
and
so
he
thought
to
sende
in
to
Englande
for
socoure
.
I
shall
shewe
you
by
what
maner
.
He
sent
his
Bulles
to
the
archebysshoppes
and
bysshoppes
of
Englande
/
makyng
mencyon
:
how
he
assoyled
from
payne
&
from
synne
/
all
suche
as
wolde
ayde
to
distroy
the
Clementyns
.
For
he
knewe
well
/
howe
Clement
his
aduersarye
/
had
done
in
lykewise
in
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
and
dothe
dayly
.
And
they
called
the
vrbanystꝭ
in
their
faythe
and
beleue
/
to
be
but
dogges
.
so
this
Urbane
sawe
well
/
that
the
Clementynes
wolde
condempne
and
distroy
hym
if
they
might
And
he
sawe
well
/
he
coude
nat
more
greue
the
frenchmen
/
than
by
the
englysshmen
.
But
first
he
sawe
well
/
he
must
fynde
the
meanes
to
gather
toguyder
great
ryches
.
For
he
knewe
well
the
nobles
of
Englande
/
for
all
his
absolucyons
/
wolde
nat
ryde
forthe
in
warre
/
without
money
.
For
menne
of
warre
lyue
nat
by
pardons
/
nor
they
set
nat
moche
therby
/
but
in
the
artycle
of
dethe
.
Thanne
he
determyned
besyde
these
Bulles
/
to
sende
in
to
Englande
to
the
prelates
/
that
they
shulde
ordayne

Dysme
on

The
noble

therof
to
be
payed
their

/
without
greuynge
of
any
parte
of
the
kynges
treasur
/
or
of
the
comontie
of
the
realme
.
The
whiche
thynge
the
Pope
thought
the
barons
and
knightes
of
England
gladly
wolde
herken
vnto
.
Than
he
caused
to
be
writen
and
engrossed
Bulles
/
as
well
to
the
kynge
and
his
vncles
/
as
to
the
prelates

of

And
besyde

to

a
playne
Dysme
to
be
taken
and
leuyed
throughe

so
that
sir
Henry
Spensar
bysshoppe
of

/
shulde
be
chiefe
capitayne
of
all
the
men
of

bycause
the

therfore
the
pope
wolde

that
one
of

And
to
the
entent
that
the
churches
and
comons
of
the
realme
/
shulde
the
better
beleue
the
mater
.
And
besyde
that
/
bycause
he
knewe
the
realme
of
Spaygne
contrarie
to
his
opinyon
/
and
som
what
alyed
with
the
frenche
kyng

He
aduysed
/
that
with

of
the
same
golde
and
syluer
that
shulde
be
gadered
in
the
realme
of

That
the

And

Thus

ordeyned
all

and
sent
a
.xxx.
Bulles
in
to
Englande
/
the
whiche
were
receyued

Than

agaynst
Fraunce

To

Spayne
in
the

of

with

But
it

that
they
shuld
nat
so
soone

Also
ther
was
another
poynt
contrary

yet
he
had
great
ioye

For
generally

for
a

that
he
dyde

But
they
said

howe
the
bisshop
of

Wherby
the

AT

Our

toucheth

bytwene

Who

if

If

For

the
Erle

Urbanystes

Also
sir

we

for
they
are
all

and
they

a

nombre
of
people
.
They

done
nothyng

this
thre

and
also
it

Also

But

yf

The

And
also
the
frenchmen
are
good
Clementyns
/
contrarie
to

Also
sir

sir
Wyllm
Beauchampe
/
who
shulde
hastely
come
to

:
And
the
last
worde
that
our

was
that
he
wolde

But
sir
/
my
counsayle
is
if
we

nedes
ryde

let

towardes
Ayre
or
Moustrell
.
Ther

none
I
thynke
as

that
wyll

And
alwayes
men
wyll
come
to

oute
of
Flaunders
/
who
hath
lost
all

they
haue
.
they
wyll
be
gladde
to
go

in
hope
to
wynne
some
what
agayne
.
They
beare
yuell
wyll
in
their

to
the
frenchmen
/
who
hath
slayne
in
the
warres
:
their
fathers
/
bretherne
/
kynsmen
and
frendes
.
Sir
Hughe
coude
scant
speke
these
wordes
/
but
that
the
bysshop
toke
the
mater
hote
and
hasty
/
and
sayde
.
A
sir
Hughe
/
ye
haue
so
well
lerned
to
ryde
in
Fraunce
/
that
ye
can
nat
ryde
in

none
other
place
.
We
can
nat
better
ryde
to

/
thanne
to

of
Dunesshe
/
of
Mesport
/
of
Bergues
/
of
Cassell
/
of

&
of

In
these
sayd
countreis
as
I
am
enformed
by
the
burgesses
of
Gaunt
/
they
had
neuer
warre
that
greued

Let

and
refresshe

there
/
for
our

if

Howe
be
it
wese
nat
yet
but
lytell
aparence
of
his
comynge
.
Whan
sir
Hughe
Caurell
/
sawe
that
the
bysshop
dyde
take
hym
vp
so
shortely
.
And
he
consydred
well
/
howe
he
was
their
chyefe
capitayne
/
and
that
he
was
a
great
man
and
of
great
lygnage
/
he
helde
his
peace
.
For
he
sawe
well
also
/
howe
that
his
opynyon
shulde
nat
be
susteyned
/
nother
by
ser
Thomas
Tryuet
nor
by
sir
Wylliam
Helmon
.
than
he
departed
and
sayd
.
Sir
/
if
ye
ryde
forthe
/
sir
Hughe
Caurell
shall
ryde
with
you
.
nor
ye
shal
nat
go
that
way
but
that
he
dare
well
go
the
same
.
I
beleue
well
quod
the
bysshoppe
/
ye
haue
good
wyll
to
ryde
forthe
/
therfore
make
you
redy
/
for
we
wyll
ryde
to
morowe
.
oN
this
purpose
they
were
all
agreed
/
and
their
rydinge
forthe
was
publysshed
throughe
out
the
towne
.
And
in
the
mornynge
the
trumpettes
sowned
/
and
euery
man
departed
in
to
the
feldes
/
and
tooke
the
way
to
Grauelyng
.
And
they
were
in
nombre
/
aboute
a
thre
thousand
men
armed
/
and
so
they
came
to
the
porte
of
Grauelynge
.
Thesee
was
as
than
but
lowe
/
and
so
they
passed
forthe
and
assayled
the
mynster
/
the
which
they
of
the
towne
had
fortifyed
.
The
towne
was
closed
but
with
pales
/
the
whiche
coude
nat
long
endure
.
Nor
also
the
men
of
the
towne
were
but
see
men
.
If
ther
had
ben
gentylmen
/
it
wolde
haue
helde
lengar
than
it
dyde
.
Nor
also
they
countre
was
nat
ware
therof
/
for
they
feared
nothyng
th
englysshmen
.
Thus
th
englysshmen
conquered
the
towne
of
Grauelyng
&
entred
in
to
it
/
and
than
drue
to
the
mynster
/
wherinto
the
people
of
the
towne
were
drawen
.
And
putte
therin
all
their
goodes
/
on
trust
of
the
strength
of
the
place
/
and
their
wyues
and
chyldren
/
and
made
rounde
about
it
great
dykes
/
so
that
the
englysshmen
coude
nat
haue
it
at
their
ease
/
for
they
were
ther
two
dayes
or
they
wanne
it
.
yet
finally
they
wan
it
/
&
slewe
all
them
that
kept
it
with
defence
/
and
with
the
resydue
they
dyde
what
they
lyste
.
Thus
they
were
lordes
and
maysters
of
Grauelynge
/
and
lodged
toguyder
in
the
towne
/
and
founde
ther
plentie
of
prouisyon
.
Than
all
the
countrey
beganne
to
be
afrayed
/
and
dyde
put
their
goodis
in
to
the
fortresses
/
and
sende
their
wyues
and
chyldren
to
Bergues
/
to
Bourbourcke
/
and
to
saynt
Omers
.
The

lay
at

whanne
he
vnderstode
these
tidynges
/
howe
that
the
englysshe
men
made
hym
warre
and
had
taken
Grauelynge
:
than
he
beganne
to
dout
of
them
of
Franke
and
of
Bruges
/
and
called
his
counsayle
to
hym
and
sayde
.
I

and

Some

hym
and
sayde
.
Sir

/
to

/
and

iN

season
that

And

And

By

So

For

And

that
they
shulde

So
on

Than
it
was
demaunded
amonge

what

And

For

Thus

And

And

And

For

I

And

For

first
he
wolde
haue
defyed

.
With
those
wordes
the
bysshoppe
began
to
were
angry
and
said
.
Well

THus
the
heraude
departed
fro
the
lordes
/
and
had
on
his
cote
of
armes
/
and
so
went
to
warde
the
flemyngis
and
thought
non
yuell
/
they
were
all
toguyder
in
a
gret
batayle
.
And
so
the
heraude
wolde
haue
goone
to
some
knyghtes
that
were
there
/
but
he
might
nat
.
For
assoone
as
he
aproched

/
they
toke
and
slewe
hym
without
any
demaundynge
fro
whens
he
came
/
or
wheder
he
wolde
.
Thus
they
slewe
hym
lyke
people
of
small
knowledge
.
The
gentylmen
that
were
there
coude
nat
saue
hym
/
whan
the
englysshmen
sawe
their
dealyng
/
they
were
sore
displeased
.
So
were
the
burgesses
of
gaunt
suche
as
were
there
/
who
were
right
gladde
to
moue
for
the
the
mater
/
so
that
there
might
be
a
newe
brewlynge
in
Flaunders
.
Than
the
Englysshe
men
sayde
.
〈◊〉
yonder

/
but
he
shall
be
dere
solde
to

or
els
we
wyll
all

Than
they
commaunded
their
archers
to
steppe
for
the
towarde
the
flemynges
.
And
there
was
a
burgesse
of
Gaunt
made
knight
/
and
incontynent
the
batayle
began
sore
and
sharpe
.
For
to
saye
trouthe
/
the
flemynges
marueylously
defended
them selfe
/
but
the
archers
shotte
so
thicke
/
that
they
ouerthrue
many
and
greued
them
sore
.
And
the
men
of
armes
entred
in
amonge
them
with
sharpe
speares
/
and
at
the
first
front
ouerthrue
many
.
Finally
the
englysshmen
wan

place
/
and
the
flemynges
discomfited
and
fledde
a
way
/
thynkinge
to
entre
in
to
Donkyrke
.
But
the
englysshmen
chased
them
so
sore
/
that
they
entred
in
to
the
towne
with
them
.
So
that
in
the
stretes
and
on
the
sandes
/
there
was
many
a
flemmyng
slayne
.
Howe
be
it
ther
were
many
Englysshmen
flayne

For
as
they
dyde
chase
the
flem

in
the
stretes
they
were
fought
withall
howe
be
it
finally
/
the
flemynges
were
nere
all
slayne
or
taken
.
Thus
fell
of
this
rencountre
at
Donkyrke
/
where
ther
were
slayne
of
the
flemmynges
a
nyne
thousande
.
tHe

there
retourned

and
shewed

/
wher
with
the

was
right
pensyue
to
thynke
howe
he
shulde
deale
in
the
mater
.
And
also
he
was
more
pensyue
/
and
so
he
had
cause
:
whan
he
herde
the
tidynges
that
his
men
were
slayne
and
discomfyted
at
Donkyrke
.
So
he
bare
it
paciently

and
dyde
reconfort
hym selfe
and
sayd

Well

if

we

and
it
please

So
incontynent
he
wrote
therof
to
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
to
the
entent
that
some
resystence
might
be
made
.
For
he
ymagined
well
/
that
the
Englysshmen
hauynge
ones
that
entre
in
to
Flaunders
/
that
they
wolde
do
more
hurt
in

countrey
/
or
they
departed
agayne
.
And
whanne
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
vnderstode
therof
/
he
sende
knightes
and
squiers
in
to
the
garysons
on

As

¶
Nowe
let
vs
speke
of
th
englysshmen
and
howe
they
ꝑceyuered
.
aFter
the
disconfyture
at
Donkyrke
and
the
towne
taken
.
The
Englysshe
men
entred
in
to
great
pride
/
for
it
semed
to
them
/
that
all
Flaunders
had
ben
theirs
.
And
to
say
the
trouthe
/
if
they
hadde
as
than
gone
to
Bruges
(
as
they
sayd
that
knewe
the
dealyng
of
them
of
the
towne
)
the
towne
had
bene
gyuen
vp
to
them
.
But
the
Englysshmen
wrought
otherwyse
/
for
they
tooke
ad●yse
to
go
to
Bourburcke
and
to
gette
that
towne
/
and
so
to
go
to
Ayre
and
to
Cassell
/
and
to
conquere
all
the
countrey
.
And
to
leaue
nothyng
behynde
them
that
shulde
be
contrarie
to
theym
/
and
than
to
go
to
Ipre
.
They
thought
verily
/
that
the
towne
of
Ipre
wolde
soone
yelde
vp
/
if
they
sawe
all
the
countre
yelden
before
.
So
thus
the
englysshemen
departed
fro
Donkyrke
and
went
to
Burbourcke
/
and
whan
they
of
the
towne
sawe
them
aprochenere
to
their
towne
/
they
yelded
vp
the
towne
/
sauyng
their
lyues
and
goodes
.
And
so
they
were
receyued
/
and
the
Englysshmen
entred
with
great
ioye
.
sayeng
/
howe
they
wolde
make

garyson
for
to
kepe

agaynst
them
of
saynt
Omers
/
and
the
fronters

adioyning
.
And
so
than
after
they
wanne
the
castell
of
Driceham
/
&
they
were
thre
dayes
before
it
or
they
wan
it
.
And
than
they
conquered
it
byforce
/
and
therin
were
slayne
a
two
hundred
men
that
were
there
in
garyson
.
And
than
the
englysshemen
repayred
agayne
the
castell
and
sayde
.
Howe
they
wolde
kepe
it
to
the
best
of
their
powers
/
and
so
sette
therin
newe
men
.
And
thanne
they
wente
forth
and
came
to
Cassell
and
tooke
the
towne
/
and
had
therin
great
pyllage
.
Than
they
departed
▪
and
sayde
they
wolde
go
and
se
the
towne
of
Ayre
.
Howe
be
it
there
was
many
of
them
that
knewe
right
well
that
the
towne
was
nat
easy
to
be
wonne
/
without
great
losse
of
their
men
.
Howe
be
it
the
bysshoppe
of
Norwiche
sayde
/
he
wolde
go

it
and
loke
theron
.
¶
Howe
the
englisshmen
conquered
all

fro

and
howe
they
beseged

THe

So
that

Whan
they
dyde
aproche

to
Ayre
/
at
a
place
called
the
Newe
dike
.
They
putte
them selfe
in
order
of
batayle
/
&
so
passed
forthe
with
baners
and
penons
wauyng
withthe
wynde
/
for
they
knewe
nat
what
the
vycount
of
Meaulxe
was
mynded
to
do
.
The
vycont
and
his

beyng
as
thanne
there
in
garysone
/
were
rainged
in
good
order
on
the

before

And
there
they
might

clerely
the

takynge
the
way
to
saynt
Uenaunt
:
but
they
were
nat

ynowe
to

Thus
they
stode
styll
kepynge
watche
and
warde
/
redy
at
their
defence
.
And
the
Englysshmen
passed
by
and
so
wente
the
same
night
a
two
myles
fro
sait
Uenaunt
/
wherof
a
knyght
of
Picardy
was
capitayne
/
called

:
Who
had
fortifyed
the
mynster
for
hym
and
his
company
/
to
drawe
in
to
if
nede
requyred
/
and
so
he
dyde
.
For
the
towne
was
closed
but
with
small
palys
and
dykes
/
wherfore
it
coulde
nat
longe
endure
agaynst
the
englysshmen
.
So
the
frenche
men
withdrewe
them selfe
/
some
in
to
the
castell
and
some
into
the
churche
/
the
whiche
was
right
stronge
.
They
of
the
castell
were
nat
assayled
/
for
it
was
marueylous
stronge
.
There
coude
no
manne
aproche
nere
therto
/
the
dykes
rounde
about
were
so
large
and
depe
.
But
the
mynster
was
incontynent
assayled
by
the
Englisshmen
/
whan
they
had
entred
the
towne
/
by
cause
they
had
knowledge
that
the
men
of
armes
were
withdrawen
in
to
it
.
sIr
Wyllyam
of
Melle
Was
a
good
knyght
and
a
valyant
/
and
nobly
defended
the
churche
of
saynt
Uenant
.
the
Englysshe
archers
were
rounde
about
it
/
and
they
shotte
vp
arowes
so
thycke
and
so
rudely
/
that
they
within
durst
scant
apere
at
any
defence
Howe
be
it
they
aboue
had
stones
and
artyllarye
great
plentie
/
and
dyde
caste
downe
stones
and
other
thynges
/
&
hurt
many
beneth
.
howe
be
it
the
assaut
was
so
sore
contynued
by
the
englysshmen
/
that
the
mynster
was
won
byforce
:
And
sir
Wyllyam
de
Melle
within
/
who
valyantly
fought
at
his
defence
/
and
so
dyde
all
his
company
.
And
if
they
had
parceyued
any
confort
of
rescue
/
they
wolde
lengar
haue
contynued
:
but
there
was
no
conforte
that
they
coulde
parceyue
/
and
therfore
they
were
the
easier
to

.
Thus
sir
Wyllyam
of
melle
was
prisoner
with
the
englysshmen
/
and
so
sette
to
his
fynaunce
.
And
so
went

:
as
all

englisshe

frenche
were

and
in

without

to

THus
whan

And
fewe

for
all
was
brent
&
beaten
downe
so
that
it
was
moche
payne
to

So
this
sir
John
Jumont
toke
on

to
kepe
it

and
incontynent
dyde
repayre
it
.
and
dyde
so
thanked
by

/
that
he
attaygned
nothyng
therby
:
but
honour
and
prayse
.
The
duke
of
Burgoyne
to
whom
the
busynesse
of
flaunders
touched
right
nere
/
toke
great
study
to
brige
well
all
thing
to

And
so
he
sende
a
thre
score
speares
bretons
to
Courtrey
/
to
th
entent
to
refresshe
the
towne
:
and
so
first
these
speares
came
to
the
duke
to
Lisle
.
And
on
a
friday
they
departed
thens
and
toke
the
way
to
Comynes
/
and
the
lorde
of
saynt
Leger
and
yuonet
of
Cātemat
were
capitayns
of
the
sayd
speares
.
And
in
to
the
towne
of
Comynes
the

at
the
breakynge
of

/
there
was
come
two
hundred
Englysshe
speares
to
fetche
forage
abrode
in
the
countre
/
to
bringe
it
to
their
hoost
before
Ipre
.
The
said
bretons
or
they
were
ware
fell
in
their
handes
and
daunger
.
So
ther
was
a
harde
and
a
sore
encountre
/
at
the
foote
of
the
bridge
of
Comynes
:
and
valiantly
the
bretons
dyde
beare
them selfe
.
If
they
had
bene
rescued
with
as
many
mo
as
they
were
/
by
lykelyhode
they
had
scaped
withoute
domage
.
Howe
be
it
they
were
fayne
to
flye
/
for
they
were
to
fewe
men
to
endure
long
.
The
moost
parte
of
them
were
slayne
and
taken
in
the
felde
/
retournynge
towardes
Lysle
.
The
lorde
of
saynt
Leger
was
sore
wounded
and
lefte
for
deed
in
the
place
/
they
were
happy
that
scaped
.
The
chase
endured
within
halfe
a
myle
of
Lyle
:
to
the
whiche
towne
the
lorde
of
saynt
Leger
was
caryed
/
wounded
as
he
was
/
and
a
fyue
dayes
after
he
dyed
/
and
so
dyde
fyue
of
his
squyers
.
thus
fortuned
of
this
aduenture
.
THus
styll
the
siege
lay
at
Ipre
.
The
englisshmen
and
gauntoys
made
many
assautis
&
they
of
the
towne
trymvled
for
feare
.
the
erle
of
Flaunders
beyng
at
Lysle
feared
greatlye
the
takyng
of
Ipre
/
for
he
knewe
well
the
englisshmen
were
right
subtell
.
and
confort
might
dayly
come
to
them
fro
Calys
/
by
reason
of
the
garysons
that
they
had
won
in
their
way
.
And
indede
they
might
haue
had
great
socoure
out
of
Englande
and
they
had
lyst
/
but
at
the
begynnyng
they
set
nothyng
by
the
erle
/
nor
by
all
the
power
of
Fraunce
.
Ther
were
dyuers
great
lordes
of
Englande
about
the
marches
of
Douer
and
Sandwiche
/
redy
apparelled
to
passe
the
see
to
Calys
/
and
to
haue
ayded
their
company
if
they
had
ben
requyred
.
Ther
were
redy
M.
speares
and
two
thousande
archers
.
Sir
Wyllyam
Beauchampe
and
sir
Wyllm
Wyndsore
marshals
of
Englande
were
soueraygne
capitayns
/
set
there
by
the
kyng
and
by
his
counsell
.
And
for
that
cause
the
duke
of
Lancastre
lost
his
vyage
that
season
into
Portyngale
.
For
all
the
realme
of
Englande
was
rather
enclyned
to
the
bysshop
of
Norwiches
army
than
to
the
duke
of
Lancastres
.
Th
erle
of
Flaunders
knewe
ryght
well
all
this
besynesse
&
insydentes
/
as
they
fell
in
Englande
:
and
euery
thyng
that
was
done
at
the
siege
of
Ipre
/
thynkyng
to
fynde
remedy
to
his
power
.
He
thought
well
that
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
wolde
moue
the
frenche
kyng
and
the
lordes
of
the
Realme
/
to
reyse
and
to
assemble
to
driue
the
englysshemen
out
of
Flaunders
/
the
whiche
they
had
wonne
the
same
yere
.
And
bycause
he
knewe
that
the
assemblynge
of
the
lordes
of
Fraunce
wolde
belonge
/
and
specially
of
them
that
shulde
serue
the
kyng
out
of
farre
countries
.
and
that
many
thinges
might
fall
or
they
came
toguyder
.
Therfore
he
aduysed
to
sende
to
the
bysshoppe
of
Liege
sir
Arnolde
Desorge
who
was
good
Urbanyst
.
To
the
entent
that
he
shulde
come
to
Ipre
/
to
treate
with
the
Englysshmen
to
depart
fro
thens
/
and
to
drawe
to
some
other
parte
:
bycause
he
hadde
great
marueyle
that
they
shulde
make
hym
warre
.
Seynge
that
he
was
good
Urbanyst
/
and
all
the
countre
of
Flaunders
:
as
all
the
worlde
knewe
.
So
moche
dyde
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
that
the
bysshoppe
of
Liege
came
in
to
Heynaulte
and
passed
Ualencennes
/
&
so
came
to
Doway
and
than
to
Lysle
and
spake
with
the
erle
.
And
ther
determyned
what
he
shulde
say
to
thenglysshemen
.
And
so
thus
the
bysshop
of
Liege
came
to
the
siege
before
Ipre
/
to
speke
with
the
bysshoppe
of
Norwiche
and
th
englysshmen
/
and
with
them
of
Gaunte
:
and
they
receyued
hym
right
well
/
and
were
gladde
to
here
hym
speke
.

So

he
toke

Whan

And

THis

Thus
they
departed

they
a
lyghted
a

Whanne
sir
Johan

There
was
of

a

howe
be
it
finally
the

so
they
were
disconfyted

There
were
but
a

Thus

right
sore

Sirs

Some

And

THe

The

The

Peter
so
one
agreed

If

For

And

.
Than
Fraunces
chase
out
a
foure
hundred
men
/
in
whom
he
had
best
truste
:
and
so
departed
fro
Gaunte
in
the
euenyng
/
and
toke
the
way
to
warde
Andewarpe
.
This
was
in
the
moneth
of
Septembre
/
whan
nightes
be
of
a
resonable
length
/
and
the
wether
fayre
and
clere
.
And
so
about
mydnight
they
came
to
the
medowes
of
Ande
warpe
/
and
had
scalynge
ladders
redy
with
them
.
And
as
they
passed
by
the
maresse
/
there
was
a
woman
of
the
towne
gaderynge
grasse
for
her
kene
▪
she
bydde
her selfe
whan
she
herde
noyse
of
men
comyng

way
.
She
herde
them
well
speke
/
&
knewe
well
howe
they
were
gauntoyse
comyng
towarde
the
towne
to
scale

:
she
sawe
well
the
ladders
.
This
woman
was
sore
abasshed
/
&
at
last
sayd
to
her selfe
.
I
wyll
go
to
And
warpe
&
shewe
all
that
I
haue
herde
and

to
the
wache
menne
of

towne
.
And
so
leyd
downe
all
her
baggage
/
and
toke
a
preuy
way
that
she
knewe
and
stale
to
the
towne
or
the
gauntoyse
came
ther
and
than
she
called
.
and
at
last
one
that
went
on
the
walles
fro
gate
to

/
herde
her
and
sayd
.
What

I

I

▪
herby

I
haue

Nowe
I

agayne

for
if
they

I

.
Thus
the
poore
woman
departed
and
the
man
was
abasshed
/
and
thought
to
abyde
styll
to
se
if
the
woman
sayd
trouthe
or
nat
.
The
gauntoyse
who
right
priuely
dyde
their
enterprise
/
made
no
noyse
nor
had
no
trumpette
/
but
the
noyse
of
their
langage
.
Than
Fraunces
Atreman
sent
foure
of
his
company
on
before
/
and
sayde
.
Go
your
way
secretely
Without
any
wordes
or
cough
hang
to
the
towne
walles
/
and
harken
aboue
and
beneth
if
ye
can
parceyue
any
thynge
.
And
so
they
dyde
/
and
Fraunces
and
his
companye
abode
styll
in
the
marisshe
/
and
stode
styll
nere
where
as
the
woman
was
.
She
sawe
them
well
and
herde
what
they
sayde
/
but
they
sawe
nat

.
These
forsayd
four
men
went
to
the
dykes
and
behelde
the
walles
/
and
sawe
nor
herde
nothyng
.
Lo
/
ye
mayse
what
yuell
aduenture
fell
to
them
within
:
for
if
they
had
fortuned
to
haue
had
but
a
candell
lyght
/
that
the
gauntoyse
might
haue
sene
it
they
durst
nat
haue
come
ther.
For
than
they
wolde
haue
thought
that
there
hadde
ben
good
watche
made
.
THese
four
men
returned
agayne
to
Frances
Atreman
and
sayde
.
Sir

I

.
Let

way
towarde

/
and
than

.
The
poore
woman
where
as
she
lay
priuely
herde
all
these
wordis
.
Than
she
went
agayne
to
the
wall
and
came
to
the
man
that
watched
there
/
and
shewed
hym
as
she

:
and
declared
all
that
she
had

herde
/
and
counsayled

to

For

And
so
the
good
poore
womandeꝑted
/
and
the
man
remembred
her
wordes
and
wente
to
the
gate
/
where
he

playenge
at

and
sayd

.
Sirs

there
was
a

and
thus
/
as
ye

They
answered
and
sayd
:
all

.
In
an
yuell
tyme
of
the
night
that
woman
is
come

It

and
she

:
I
warrant
you

In

season
whyle

were
thus
talkynge
/
Fraunces
Atreman
and
his
company
were
come
and
entred

wherin

And
there
they
brake
downe

before

wall
/
and
so
rered
vp
their
ladders
and
entred
in

the
towne
and
went
streight
to
the
market
place
/
without
sownynge
of
any
noyse
tyll
they
came
thyder
&
there
they
founde
a
knight
called
sir
John
Florence
of

/
who
was

.
And
he
kepte

And

Thus

Howe

were
sore
abasshed
whan
they
herd
that
cry
/
and
saw
their

taken
and
coude

.
For
the
gauntoyse
brake
vp
their
houses
byforce
/
&
slewe
them
without
any
defence
makyng
/
they
were
taken
so
sodenly
/
wherfore
there
was
no
recouery
/
therfore
euery
man
saued
him selfe
that
might
best
.
The
men
fledde
out
of
their
houses
all
naked
&
lept
ouer
the
walles
/
and
left
all
behynde
them

and
waded
throughe

about

The
ryche

bare
nothyng

for
they
were
happy
that

Ther
was
the

and
drowned
in
the
dykes
and
waters
.
Thus
it
for
tuned
of
this
aduenture
.
And
in
the
moruynge
whan
the
gauntoyse
sawe
howe
they
were
lordes
of

/
than
they
put

wherof
they

had
achyued
a
great
and
an
highe
enterprise
/
whiche
ought
to
tourne
to
his
great

.
Thus
Fraunces
Atreman
abode

/
and
wanne

riches
and
great
prouisyon
/
which
came

the
whiche
they
of

But
all

Heynalte
was
saued
/
they
toke
nothyng

but
that

In

Therfore

They

He

And

Than
they
sayd

were
enclosed

THe
saturday
as
is

/
the
frenche
kyng
came
before
Burbourke
.
There
was
neuer
sene
a
goodlyer
army
/
and
euery
man
redy
apparelled
to
assaut
the
towne
/
with
great
courage
and
wyll
.
And
they
sayd
/
the
towne
shulde
nat
long
endure
agaynst
them
/
howe
be
it
first
it
cost
them
many
of
their
men
.
Some
had
great
marueile
why
they
went
nat
incontynent
to
the
saut
.
some
said
agayne
/
that
the
duke
of
Bretayne
and
the
erle
of
Flaunders
/
who
were
on
the
farther
syde
of
the
towne
/
were
in
trea●●e
with
the
Englysshmen
to
yelde
vp
the
towne
without
any
assaut
.
The
bretons
/
burgonyons
/
normayns
/
almayns
and
other
peple
/
who
thought
surely
that
within
the
towne
was
great
pyllage
and
protyte
for
them
/
yf
they
might
wynne
the
towne
byforce
.
Wherfore
they
were
sore
displeased
that
they
went
nat
streyght
wayes
to
the
assaute
.
Some
scrymysshed
at
the
barryers
without
any
commaundement
or
ordynaunce
of
the
constable
or
marshalles
.
The
mater
multiplyed
in
suche
wyse
/
that
the
frenchemen
shotte
fyre
in
to
the
towne
/
so
that
there
was
fyre
in
mo
than
in
.xl.
places
/
so
that
they
myght
se
the
flame
and
smoke
in
euery
parte
of
the
hoost
.
Than
beganne
the
crye
and
assaut
/
and
there
was
in
the
formast
front
/
sir
Wyllyam
of
Namure
and
his
company
/
who
valyantly
dyde
assayle
.
There
was
done
many
a
feate
of
armes
.
The
assaylantes
with
great
courage
and
wyll
entred
in
to
the
dykes
/
some
to
the
knees
in
water
and
myre
/
and
came
and
shotte
and
fought
at
the
pales
with
th
englysshmen
/
who
defended
theym selfe
as
well
as
any
men
myght
do
/
and
it
was
nede
for
them
so
to
do
.
They
within
had
so
moche
to
do
/
that
they
wyste
nat
well
what
to
do
.
They
were
assayled
on
euery
syde
/
and
styll
brent
the
houses
of
the
towne
/
whiche
abasshed
the
englyssmen
moost
of
any
thyng
.
But
for
all
that
they
went
nat
fro
their
wardes
/
but
abode
styll
at
their
defences
.
And
sir
Mathue
Reedman
and
sir
Nycholas
Traicton
/
and
suche

were
stablysshed
in
the
towne
.
They
dyde
as
moche
as
they
myght
to
quenche
the
fyre
/
but
the
wether
was
so
fayre
&
the
season
so
drie
/
that
the
houses
flamed
.
And
for
certayne
/
if
the
assaute
had
begonsoner
the
same
saturday
/
and
that
the
night
hadde
nat
so
soone
come
/
they
had
wonne
the
towne
by
assaut
/
but
it
behoued
them
to
cease
the
assaut
/
bycause
of
the
nyght

Of

Wyllyam
Namures
company
there
were
a

slayne
/
and

them
of
the

.
as
the
heraldes
reported
/
there
were
slayne
and
hurte
mo
than
fyue

Than
ceased

bicause
of
the

/
and
the
frenchmen
drewe
to
their
lodgynges
/
and
entended
to
their
hurte
people
/
and
to
bury
the

.
And
it
was
sayd
in
the

/
that

in

mornyng
/
they
wolde
newe

.
Sayeng
surely
/
how
they
wolde
wynne

/
and
that

.
The
englysshmen
all
that
nyght
entended
to
repayre
their
pales
whiche
were
broken
/
and
to
quenche
the
fyre
in
the
towne
.
So
they
sawe
them selfe
all
thynges
consydered
in
a
harde
case
/
for
they
sawe
well
they
were
closed
in

/
so
that
they
coude

aNd
on

after

There
was
a

tent
/
he

To

Than

/
so
that

So

And
some

that

And

And
to

For

For

and
toke
their

/
and
passed

thorough

The

Thus

but
the

This
was
a
true
thynge
:
and
the
vyllayne
fell
fro
the
auter
and
dyed
a
shamefull
dethe
.
Many
men
sawe
this
myracle
:
and
after
that
ther
came
another
that
wolde
haue
done
the
same
:
but
than
all
the
belles
in
the
church
rang
without
any
helpe
of
mannes
handes
/
nor
also
they

For

And

of
Bauyer
/
bycause
he
was
come
to
serue
hym
so
farre
of

and
also
the
erle
of

.
so
thus
euery
lorde

to
their

and
than
the

but
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
taryed

to

The

and
diuers
other
knightes
and
squiers
of
Poictou
/
of
Uymewe
/
and
of
Picardy
/
entred
in
to
Grauelynge
whan
the
Englysshmen
had
lefte
it
.
And
newe
repayred
it
/
and
made
it
a
countre
garyson
agaynst
Calays
.
And
lytell
and
lytell
peopled
agayne
the
countre
of
Furneys
/
of
Donkyrke
/
of
Disqueme
/
and
of
Newporte
/
the
whiche
was
all
lost
before
:
but
than
they
conquered
it
newe
agayne
.
yE
may
knowe
well
/
that
the
duke
of
Lancastre
was
nothynge
dyspleased
/
that
the
bysshoppe
of
Norwyches
armye
spedde
no
better
than
it
dyde
.
For
by
reason
of
that
army
/
he
lost
his
viage
into
Spayne
and
Portyngale
.
And
whan
these
englysshe
knightes
were
retourned
in
to
Englande
/
they
were
sore
taken
vp
with
the
comens
.
They
sayde
to

/
howe
they
had
right
yuell
quyted
themselve
in
their
vyage
/
whan
they
had
so
fayre
a

in

/
and
conquered
nat
the
hole
countre
:
and
specially
sir
Thomas
Tryuet
and
sir
Wyllm
Helman
were
moost
blamed
.
As
for
sir
Hughe
Caurell
there
was
no
faute
layde
to
his
charge
/
nother
by
the
kyng
nor
his
counsayle
nor
by
the
comons
.
For
it
was
well
knowen
/
that
if
his
counsayle
might
haue
bene
beleued
/
they
had
spedde
better
than
they
dyde
to
their
honores
.
And
so
it
was
layde
to
the
two
other
knightes
/
howe
they
had
solde
Burborke
and
Grauelynge
to
the
frenche
kyng
/
so
that
all
the
realme
was
sore
moued
agaynst
them
/
so
that
they
were
in
parell
of
their
lyues
.
And

For

seyng

the

howe

but
that

they

For

Of

There

so
that
he
was
well

and
thanked
the

And

And

wherfore

They

they
wolde

for
it
was

So
thus
they
departed

thought
to

Howe
be
it
the
wynde
was

whanne

so
that

were
fayne
to

/
in

called
Uorell
.
than
they
thoght
they

but
it
was
nat
so
:
For

Normayns
but
a
lytell
before
had
ouer
ron

&
done

Wherfore
these

for

their

THe

called
Jacob
Grasyns

He
spake

dyde
so
moche
by

langage
/
that
parte
of
their

was
restored
agayne
to

/
and
to
bring
them
out
of
the
parell
and
daunger
that
he
sawe
they
were

(
for
he
knewe
well
the
people
of
the
towne
were
sore
moued
agaynst
them
/
and
were
in
mynde
to
ly

on

see
/
and
to
execute
that
purpose
they
had
warned
other

by
)
the
sayed
squyer
shewed
them
what
daunger
they
were
in
/
&
the
countre
was
sore
moued
agaynst
them
.
But
he
sayd
/
for
the
loue
of
the
kyng
and
for
t
honour
of
the
realme
of
Fraunce
/
he
wolde
ordayne
some
remedy
for
them
.
Than
he
went
to
a
maryner
and
hyred
a
shippe
to
go
wher
as
pleased
hym
with
his
company
:
sayeng
/
howe
he
wolde
sayle
to
Dondrest
.
So
the
maryner
made
couynaunt
with
him
/
and
so
he
entred
in
to
the
shyppe
/
and
all
the
sayde
frenchmen
with

.
And
so
first
the
maryner
set
his
course

Donderst
.
Whanne
Jacob
sawe

tyme
/
than
he
sayd
to
the
mariners
.
Sirs

The

So
they
tourned
the
helme
and
sayle
/
and
sayled
toward
the
towne
of
Streneghen
/
and
came
thyder
without
any

The
towne
belonged
to
the

and
there
they
refresshed

and
so
departed
at
their
pleasure

There

So

WE
haue
herde
here
before
/
howe
Fraunces
Atremanne
in
the
meane
tyme
whyle
the
frenche
king
was
in
his
iourney
in
Flaunders
/
toke
by
stelthe
the
towne
of
Andewarpe
/
wherof
they
of
Tourney
and
of
other
townes
therabout
were
sore
dismayde
/
for
the
garyson
there
before
the
truse
was
taken
/
dyde
moche
domage
in
the
countre
of
Turnesyn
/
and
specially
all
the
landes
of
the
lorde
of
Destornay
was
in
their
obeysaunce
.
And
at
the
feest
of
Christēmas
/
they
gadered
vp
the
rentes
as
capons
/
and
other
thynges
in
his
townes
/
wherwith
he
was
sore
displeased
/
and
his
seruauntes
and
frendes
.
He
sayd
/
that
whatsoeuer
truse
or
respyte
of
warre
was
taken
bytwene
Englande
/
Fraunce
/
and
Flaunders
:
he
wolde
in
no
wyse
kepe
truse
with
the
gauntoise
.
For
they
had
done
him
so
moche
hurt
that
he
was
nat
able
to
beare
it
/
but
in
a
maner
vndone
therby
.
So
thus
this
lorde
of
Destornay
dyde
cast
his
aduyce
to
get
agayne
Andwarpe
/
and
atchiued
his
entent
by
the
ayde
of
some
knightes
and
squyers
of
France
/
of
Flaunders
/
and
of
Heynalte
/
who
helped
hym
to
his
purpose
.
yet
whan
he
sende
for
them
/
there
were
many
that
knewe
nothyng
what
he
wolde
do
.
This
chaunce
happed
the
.xvii.
day
of
May
.
the
lorde
of
Destornay
knewe
by
his
spyes
/
that
Fraunces
Atreman
was
as
than
in
Gaunt
and
nat
in
Andwarpe
.
For
he
trusted
so
on
the
truse
bitwene
them
and
Fraunce
/
that
he
feared
nothyng
/
whiche
was
a
great
folly
.
For
he
tooke
nat
so
good
hede
to
Andewarpe
as
he
shulde
haue
done
:
as
ye
shall
herafter
.
The
lorde
of
Destornay
made
an
assemble
of
foure
hundred
knyghtes
and
squyers
good
men
of
armes
.
And
so
he
came
into
the
wode
of
Lart
agaynst
the
gate
towarde
Grauntmount
right
nere
to
the
gate
of
Andwarpe
.
And
with
hym
there
was
sir
Johan
of
Molyn
/
sir
Jakes
de
la
Tremoyle
/
sir
Gylbert
/
sir
Johan
Cacq̄lon
/
sir
Roulande
Despyre
/
sir
Blaynchard
de
Calonne
/
and
the
lorde
of
Destripouylle
/
who
was
ther
made
knight
.
I
shall
shewe
you
now
the
maner
howe
they
of
Andwarpe
were
disceyued
.
They
toke
two
cartes
laded
with
vitayle
and
four
carters
in
gray
cotes
harnessed
vnderneth
/
right
hardy
and
aduenturous
felowes
.
So
they
came
and
draue
their
Cartes
before
Andwarpe
/
&
shewed
the
watchmen
howe
they
had
brought
prouisyon
out
of
Heynault
to
vitayle
the
towne
.
The
watchemen
thought
nothyng
but
good
/
and
so
lette
downe
the
portcolyse
.
Than
the
carters
priuely
losed
the
horses
fro
the
cart
/
the
watchmen
sayd
.
sirs
/
why
driue
you
nat
forthe
your
cartes
/
and
the
watchemen
toke
the
forehorses
by
the
heed
and
drewe
them
forthe
?
And
so
they
passed
in
&
the
cartes
abode
styll
in
the
gate
and
on
the
bridge
.
Thanne
the
watchmen
sawe
well
they
were
betrayed
/
and
began
to
fight
with
the
carters
/
who
defended
them selfe
right
well
/
for
they
were
well
armed
vnder
their
cotes
.
And
so
they
slewe
two
of
the
watchmen
/
and
incontynent
they
were
rescued
for
the
lorde
of
Destornay
and
his
company
pursewed
fast
after
and
entred
in
to
the
towne
.
than
the
watchmen
fledde
into
the
towne
/
and
cryed
treason
treason
.
But
or
the
towne
was
reysed
/
the
men
of
armes
were
entred
and
slewe
all
that
they
encountred
/
that
made
any
defence
/
and
so
cryed
the
towne
is
wonne
.
Thus
Andwarpe
was
taken
agayne
/
and
there
were
of
the
gauntoyse
slayne
and
drowned
a
thre
hundred
/
and
there
was
founde
great
richesse
parteyning
to
Fraunces
Atreman
.
It
was
sayd
/
it
amounted
to
a
fyftene
thousande
frankes
.
THese
t●●ynges
were
sone
knowen
in
dyuers
places
howe
Andwarpe
was
taken
/
the
truse
duryng
by
the
frenchmen
.
And
specially
they
of
Gaunt
were
sore
displeased
therwith
as
it
was
reason
/
for
it
touched
them
right
nere
.
Than
they
toke
counsayle
togyder
/
and
determyned
to
sende
to
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
shewyng
hym
howe
in
the
assuraunce
of
peace
/
Andwarpe
had
ben
taken
fro
hym
:
desyring
him
/
that
it
might
be
restored
agayne
/
or
els
the
truse
was
broken
.
So
they
sende
to
hym
/
but
the
duke
excused
hym
and
sayd
:
that
he
medled
nothynge
with
that
mater
/
and
so
prayed
god
to
helpe
them
For
he
sayd
/
he
knewe
nothyng
of
the
lorde
Destornayes
en●prise
.
but
he
sayd
/
he
wolde
write
to
hym
with
a
good
wyll
/
and
so
he
dyde
/
commaundynge
hym
to
rendre
agayne
Andwarpe
to
the
gauntoyse
.
Sayeng
/
howe
it
was
nat
honourable
to
take
any
towne
/
castell
or
fortresse
/
duryng
the
peace
.
The
lorde
of
Destornay
answered
to
the
dukes
letter
/
and
sayd
to
the
messangers
.
Sirs
/
alwayes
the
garysone
of
Andwarpe
hath
made
me
warre
/
bothe
in
the
warr
season
and
in
peace
tyme
/
and
hath
taken
fro
me
myne
herytage
/
and
as
for
me
I
neuer
agreed
to
be
at
peace
with
them
.
Thus
I
haue
taken
Andwarpe
by
good
feate
of
warre
/
and
I
purpose
to
kepe
it
as
my
proper
herytage
/
tyll
Flanders
and
Gaunt
be
all
one
/
for
I
haue
nothyng
els
/
for
all
is
lost
by
the
warre
.
So
thus
the
mater
abode
/
the
gauntoyse
coude
get
nothyng
els
.
Of
the
yuell
kepynge
of
Andwarpe
Fraunces
Atreman
was
sore
blamed
/
and
specially
of
the
lorde
of
Harsels
/
so
that
there
were
great
&
heynous
wordes
bytwene
them
.
Fraunces
sayde
:
howe
he
had
done
better
seruice
to
Gaunt
/
than
euer
he
dyde
.
Their
langage
multiplyed
so
farr
that
eche
of
them
belyed
other
/
with
foule
wordes
.
And
anone
after
the
lorde
of
Harsels
was
slayne
:
some
sayd
it
was
by
the
meanes
of
Frances
Atreman
&
Peter
de
Boyse
for
enuy
.
The
same
season
the
gauntoyse
made
a
request
to
the
kyng
of
Englande
▪
to
haue
some
noble
man
of
his
blode
to
be
gouernoure
of
Gaunt
.
So
the
kyng
and
his
counsayle
sende
to
Gaunt
a
valyant
knyght
and
ryght
sage
/
to
haue
the
gouernyng

he
was
called

he
had
the
gouernynge
of

And
went
to
Puyle
and
to
Calabre
/
and
conquered
all
the
countre
to
Naples
/
but
the
neapolytans
wolde
neuer
tourne
to
his
parte
/
but
they
euer
sustayned
and
helde
with
sir
Charles
de
la
Payx
.
the
duke
of
Aniou
abode
in
this
vyage
thre
yeres
/
whiche
was
a
great
cost
and
charge
.
Though
a
man
be
neuer
so
riche

men
of

warre
wasteth
all

For
he
that
wyll

they
must
be
payed
truely
their

/
or
els
they
wyll

Certaynly
/
this
sayde
iourney
cost
the
duke
of
Aniou
so
moche
/
that
it
canne
nat
be
well
estemed
.
And
they
that
wasted
&
cofounded
moost
of
his
richesse
/
was
the
erle
of
Sauoy
and
the
sauosyns
.
Howe
be
it
the
erle
of
Sauoy
and
a
great
parte
of
his
company
dyed
in
this
viage
whiche
was
great
pytie
/
so
that
the
duke
of
Aniowe
began
to
waxe
feble
/
bothe
of
men
and
of
money
.
and
for
those
two
causes
he
sende
for
so
coure
in
to
Fraunce
to
his
two
bretherne
/
the
duke
of
Berry
and
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
.
Desyring
them
nat
to
fayle
him
at
his
nede
/
but
to
socour
hym
with
men
and
money
:
and
so
they
sayd
they
wolde
.
Than
they
aduysed
what
men
were
mete
to
be
sende
on
that
voyage
.
And
all
thynges
consydred
/
they
ymagined
that
they
coude
not
sende
a
better
/
nor
one
that
knewe
better
all
men
of

/
thanne
the
gentyll
lorde
of
Coucy
/
and
with
hym
the
lorde
Danghien
erle
of
Conuersant
/
whiche
Erldome
is
in
Puylle
.
These
two
lordes
were
desyred
by
the
kyng
and
by
his
vncles
to
take
on
them
that
iourney
/
to
the
whiche
they
wyllingly
agreed
/
and
thought
it
was
for
them
right
honorable
.
And
so
they
made
them
redy
&
went
forthe
as
sone
as
they
myght
with
their
men
of
warre
.
But
whan
they
were
come

Auignon

and
intended
to
their
besynes
and
made
their
men
to
passe
forthe

Tydinges
than
came

them
howe
the

Whan

he
wente
no
farther
forth
/
for
he
sawe
well
than
that
his

But
the
lorde
Conuersant
passed
forthe
farther
/
for
he
had
moche
a

and
in

.
Tydinges
was
knowen
anon

So
thus
the

The

For

And

I
had

to

Margarete
be

to
the

of
Haynalt
.
Than
the
lady
went
fro
one
parte
to
the
other
/
to
treat
for
this
maryage
.
The
duke
Aubert
to
whome
these
tydinges
were
newe
.
answered
right
curtesly
/
and
sayd
:
howe
he

as
than
no

/
suche

What

or

I

I
wyll

mater
/
for

hathe
as
moche
parte
of
my
chyldren
as
I.
Also
fayre
aunt
▪
it
is
metely
that
the
nobles
of
the
countrey
be
enfourmed
therof
.
well
qd
the
duches
I
pray
god
all
be
for
the
best
.
And
than
she
thought
at
their
departinge
/
to
desyre
them
to
mete
agayne
in
the
same
place
in
Lent
tyme
/
and
to
bringe
their
wyues
and
their
counsayls
with
them
.
This
lady
dyde
all
this
so
secretly
/
that
fewe
folkes
knewe
wherfore
the
counsayle
was
.
Thus
the
two
dukes
departed
fro
Cambray
.
The
duke
of
Burgoyne
went
to
the
cytie
of
Arras
/
where
as
the
lady
his
wyfe
was
.
and
the
duke
Aubert
returned
in
to
Holande
/
where
as
the
lady
his
wyfe
was
.
And
the
Duches
of
Brabant
retourned
in
to
her
countrey
/
and
euer
secretly
she
wrote
and
sent
to
eyther
party
/
and
tooke
great
payne
to
bringe
agayne
these
lordes
and
their
wyues
in
to
the
cytie
of
Cambray
:
for
greatly
she
desyred
this
mariage
to
be
confyrmed
/
for
to
bringe
in
vnite
and
concorde
/
Flaunders
/
Brabant
/
and
Haynalt
to
gyder
.
SO
moche
dyd
this
good
lady
/
that
she
and
the
sayd
dukes
/
their
wyues
and
counsayls
came
agayne
to
Cambray
/
and
ther
was
done
great
honoure
/
for
eche
of
them
enforsed
them selfe
to
do
honoure
eche
to
other
.
There
was
the
duches
Margarete
of
Burgoyn
/
and
the
duches
Margaret
of
Heynault
/
who
helde
sore
in
this
treaty
.
saynge
/
that
if
her
sonne
shulde
mary
Margarete
of
Burgoyne
/
she
wolde
also
that
her
doughter
shuld
mary
John
of
Burgoyne
/
and
so
to
make
a
crosse
maryag●
/
wherby
shulde
be
the
more
coniunction
of
loue
.
And
so
two
of
the
chyldren
of
Burgoyne
shulde
be
maryed
in
to
one
howse
.
The
duke
of
Burgoyne
thought
it
was
ynough
to
mary
his
doughter
/
and
excused
Johan
his
sonne
.
saynge
/
howe
h●
was
to
yonge
of
age
to
be
maryed
.
for
the
duk●
of
Burgoyne
had
ymaginacion
to
mary
Jo
〈…〉
his
sonne
with
Katheryne
of
Fraunce
/
suster
〈…〉
his
nephewe
the
french
kyng
.
So
thus
on
〈…〉
poynt
the
treaty
was
lyke
to
haue
fayled
/
for
the
duches
of
Bauiers
sayd
/
howe
there
shulde
be
made
no
maryage
of
any
of
her
chyldren
/
with
out
they
were
both
maryed
.
Alwayes
she
helde
this
purpose
/
ther
coude
no
man
breke
her
therof
.
The
duches
of
Brabant
hadde
great
payne
to
go
fro
the
one
to
the
other
/
and
to
bringe
the
treaty
toguyder
.
So
moche
she
dyd
alegynge
and
she
wynge
so
good
reasons
/
specially
to
the
duke
and
duches
of
Burgoyn
/
that
finally
they
went
through
/
and
concluded
that
the
sonne
and
doughter
of
the
duke
of
Burgoyne
/
shulde
be
maryed
to
the
sonne
and
doughter
of
the
duke
Aubert
of
Bauiers
.
And
the
let
of
the
mater
fyue
dayes
before
/
was
for
a
mater
that
the
duke
of
Burgoyns
counsayle
feared
.
for
they
vnderstod
that
duke
Aubert
had
nat
bene
in
trewe
possession
of
Heynalt
/
but
in
possibylite
therof
/
for
as
than
lyued
erle
Willyam
of
Haynault
his
brother
/
and
lay
sore
sycke
at
Ouesnoy
/
the
whiche
erle
myght
recouer
and
ouerlyue
duke
Aubert
his
brother
.
and
if
he
so
dyd
they
thought
clerely
and
feared
greatly
/
that
his
other
bretherne
shulde
haue
the
gouernynge
of
Haynault
/
and
the
chyldren
of
duke
Aubert
to
be
put
clene
out
.
For
this
dought
they
made
a
delay
in
this
maryage
the
space
of
fyue
dayes
/
tyll
at
last
it
was
clerely
knowen
/
that
duke
Aubert
hadde
no
mo
bretherne
but
the
Erle
of
Haynault
/
so
that
he
coulde
nat
put
the
herytage
fro
duke
Aubertes
chyldren
.
Whanne
these
thynges
were
knowen

there
was

no

And
Johan
of
Burgoyne

spared
no

and
euery

Tidynges
of
these

came
to
Englande
.
the
duke
of
Lancastre
who
alwayes
hoped
/
that
Willyam
of

shulde

his

his

/
at
leest
he
was
borne
so
in

▪
he
was
right

sore
troubled

And
whanne
he
had
well

he
sent
certayne

And
whanne
these

Bourchier

the
aldermen
of
Gaunt
/
Peter
du
Boyse
and
Fraunses
Atreman
/
who
made
them
right
good
chere
.
And
so
ther
they
taryed
two
dayes
/
and
fro
thence
they
went
to
Mons
in
Heynalt
/
and
so
to
Quesnoy
/
and
there
they
came
to
the
duke

and
he
and
the
duches
and
his
children
receyued
them
goodly

for
the
honour
of
the

/
and
made

And

Than

&
recommaunded
the
duke
of
Lancastre
to
the
duke
Auberte

.
And
than
he
spake
of
other
thynges
as
he
was
charged
to

And

if
it
were
his
entent
to
perceyuer

With

wordes
the

a
lytell
chaunged
colour
/
and
sayd
:

This
was
the
answere

So
