Of his Wife and issue.
HE married Margaret Daughter of Rayner Duke of Anjou, and Ti••ular king of Ierusalem, Sicilie, and Arragon; by whom he had small Portion, and little strength of Alliance; yet might have been a good match, if they could have chan∣ged conditions with one another, that he might have had her active and stirring spi∣rit, and she his softly and milde disposition; She was his wife six and twenty years, and after her husbands depulsion from the Regall Throne, his Forces being van∣quished at the Battell of Tewkesberry, in a poore Religious house, where she had fled for safety of her life, was taken prisoner and carried captive to London, where shee remained in durance, till Duke Rayner her Father purchased her liberty, unto whom she returned, and lastly dyed in her native Country. By her, king Henry had issue only one Son named Edw••rd, who when the day was lost at T••wkesberry, sought to escape by flight, but being taken, was brought into the presence of king Edward; whose r••solute answers provoked king Edward so much, that he dashed him on the mouth with his Gantlet, and then Richard the Crouchback ran him into the heart with his Dagger; his body wa•• buried amongst the poore persons there slain, in the Monasticall Church of the Black-Friers in Tewkesberry.
