"This yere [A^{o}. xxxiiij. Edw. III.] the blode all fresshe flowid out of the tombe of Thomas sometyme erle of Lancastre. Also this yere the kyng chose his sepulture at Westmynstre. Also this yere, the yere of oure lord m^{l} iij^{c} lx, the xiiij day of Aprile and the morn after day, the kyng Edward with his hoste lay about Paris," &c. as is related in the text to have occurred in the _thirty-fifth_ year of Edward III., though the king's expedition to Calais against the regent of France is stated to have occurred in the _thirty-fourth_ year. NOTE M. page 67. The sheriff called in the text Adam Wymondham, stands as Adam Wymbyngham in the Cottonian MS.; and though the death of dame Blaunch duchess of Lancaster is there mentioned, no notice occurs of the pestilence. NOTE N. page 70. The following is the account of the events in this year [A^{o}. xlix. Edw. III.], in the copy in the Cottonian MS.--"In this yere, at the towne of Brugges in Flaundres, was tretid upon diverse articles hangynge atwixt the pope and kyng Edward. Also the same tyme at Brugges was tretid for a peas bitwixt the ij realmes Fraunce and England. Also this yere deide William Witlesey archebisshop of Caunterburye, and the monkes chose the cardinall of England; and the kyng was wroth therwith, and wolde not consent therto, ne the pope nor cardinall; and so Maister Symon succedid." NOTE O. page 71. The only event noticed in the copy in the Cottonian MS. in the 51st Edw. III. is the death of Edward prince of Wales, and his burial at Canterbury. NOTE P. page 71. It is singular that in both MSS. the events mentioned in the text, as well as the death of Edward the Third, are said to have occurred in the _fifty-second_ year of that monarch's reign, for he died in the _fifty-first_ year, namely on the 21st of June 1377. The commencement of his reign is always calculated from the 25th of January 1327, when his father resigned the crown. NOTE Q. page 77. A^{o}. ix. Richard II.--The copy in the Cottonian MS. only states under this year, that "This yere, the yere of oure lord m^{l} iij^{c} and iiij^{xx} and vj, kyng Richard went into Scotland with a roial power."

NOTE S. page 80. The occurrences mentioned in the text as having taken place in the 15th of Richard II. are in the Cottonian MS. assigned to the following year; but no notice is taken under either year of "the pley of S^{t}.
