Note 9 — Chapter XXI · DESPOTISM, DISCONTENT, AND DISORDER.
Reading edition
"Herbert was not a little joyous of the king's letter, partly to deserve the king's liberality, which, of a mean gentleman, had promoted him to the estate of an earl, partly for the malice that he bare to the Earl of Warwick, being the sole obstacle (as he thought) why he obtained not the wardship of the Lord Bonville's daughter and heir for his eldest son."—Grafton's Chronicle.
