Then he came into land with a great army and won castles; and the king ched against him with a much larger army, howbeit they not fight, but the archbishop and wise men went between and made a treaty on these terms: that the king should ord and king while he lived, and that Henry should be after his death, and that he should consider him as his er, and the king him as his son, and that peace and conshould be between them, and in all England. The king, the earl, and the bishop, and the earls, and all the great swore to observe these and the other conditions that then made. The earl was received with much honour inchester and at London, and all did homage to him, and e to keep the peace, and it soon became a very good e, such as never was in this land. Then the king was powerful here than ever he was; and the earl went sea, and all the people loved him, because he did good ce, and made peace. : 1154. This year king Stephen died, and he was buried his wife and his son at Faversham; they had built that stery.

And the king was received at Peter. borough with great respect, and in full procession; so he was also at Ramsey, at Thorney, and at .... and Spalding, and .... The MS. is defective. Ramsey and Thorney are elicited from some faint traces in the Laud MS. which seem to have escaped the penetration of Gibson.
