THys was syr John̄ of Heynaulte moued in his cou¦rage & made his assembly / & prayed ye 〈◊〉〈◊〉 to he redy at hale•• & y• 〈◊〉〈◊〉 at Bre∣das / and the Hollanders to be at ••uchryghte / at a daye lymytted. Than the quene of Juglande tooke leue of the erle of Heynault / and of the coūtesse, and thanked theym greatly of their honour / se∣a••t / and good chere: that they hadde made her / kyssynge theym at her departynge. Thus this lady departed and hersonne & all her company with syr John̄ of Heynaulte / Who With great peyne gatte leue of his brother. Sayng to hym My lorde and brother I am yong / and thynke that god hath pourueyed for me this entrepryse for myn aduancemēt. I beleue and thynke ve∣rely / that wrōgfully and synfully this lady hath been chased out of Inglande / and also her sōne. hit is almes and glory to god and to the worlde to comforte and helpe them / that be comfort〈…〉〈…〉 and specyally so hyghe / and so noble a lady as this is. Who is doughter to a kyng and desceu∣dyd of a royall kyng. We be of her bloodde and she of oures. I hadde rather renounce and for∣sake all that I haue / and go serue god ouer the see. and neuer to retourne into this countrey ra¦ther than this good lady shulde haue departed from vs Withowte comforte and helpe. Ther∣fore dere brother / suffre me to go with yor good Wyll. wherin ye shall do nobly / and I shall hū∣bly thanke you therof. and the better therby I shall accomplysshe all the voyage. And Whan the good Erle of Heynaulte / hadde 〈◊〉〈◊〉 harde his brother / and parceued the great desyre that he hadde to his entrepryse / and sawe 〈◊〉〈◊〉 hy•• myght tourne hym and his heyres to great ho∣noure here after.

Therfore in the name of god I gyue you leue and kyste hym / 〈…〉〈…〉ynge hym by the hande / insygne of great loue.
Thus he departed / and roode the same nyghte to Mounce in Heynnaulte With the Quene of Inglande.
