The History of England in Three Volumes, Vol.I., Part C.

CHAPTER XXXV
4/57

The rebels in Wiltshire were dispersed by Sir William Herbert: those in' the neighboring counties, Oxford and Glocester, by Lord Gray, of Wilton.

Many of the rioters were killed in the field: others were executed by martial law.

The commotions in Hampshire, Sussex, Kent, and other counties, were quieted by gentler expedients; but the disorders in Devonshire and Norfolk threatened more dangerous consequences.
