Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.
EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).
The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.
Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.
Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.
Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.
The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.
Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

1.
THat
it
is
a
Maxim
in
the
Romish
Religion
,
declared
by
most
of
their
own
writers
,
that
the
Pope
may
if
he
will
,
at
one
Mass
free
all
the
souls
out
of
Purgatory
:
his
Majesties
inference
on
this
Position
was
,
with
●…bnegation
of
the
Popes
charity
,
and
admiration
of
his
unparalelled
cruelty
,
that
being
granted
,
to
have
a
power
so
to
do
,
dot●…
not
nor
may
not
apply
his
will
unto
it
.
2.
That
the
wearing
of
Leeks
on
Saint
Davids
day
by
the
Welshmen
,
was
a
good
,
honourable
,
and
commendable
fashion
,
seeing
that
all
memorable
Acts
have
by
the
Agents
something
worn
for
distinction
,
and
also
to
preserve
the
memory
thereof
unto
posterity
:
even
as
the
Passeover
was
to
the
Jews
,
that
when
their
children
should
ask
why
they
were
girded
with
staves
in
their
hands
,
they
might
shew
them
the
cause
;
so
the
Welshmen
in
commemoration
of
the
great
fight
by
the
black
Prince
of
Wales
,
do
wear
Leeks
as
the●…r
chosen
Ensign
.
3.
Doctor
Baily
holding
conference
with
the
King
touching
the
Popes
Arrogancy
,
alluding
to
Christs
answer
to
his
Apostles
;
He
that
desires
to
bear
Rule
,
let
him
be
the
least
amongst
you
,
and
therefore
the
Pope
doth
sometimes
colourably
term
himself
servant
of
servants
:
to
which
the
King
replyed
,
that
by
such
an
inference
he
could
prove
the
Pope
to
be
humbly
minded
,
to
which
the
Doctour
answered
,
that
he
did
not
alwayes
so
account
himself
,
save
only
when
he
had
purpose
to
deceive
,
otherwise
he
esteemed
himself
Lord
of
Lords
.
His
Majesties
determination
was
,
that
the
Popes
calling
himself
servant
of
servants
,
was
rather
in
a
more
strict
and
peculiar
sense
,
as
that
he
was
a
servant
of
his
Church
,
and
so
by
consequence
,
the
servant
of
the
servants
of
God
,
but
towards
all
other
,
Lord
of
Lords
;
so
likewise
to
be
a
professed
Catholick
,
is
to
be
a
true
Christian
,
but
to
be
a
Roman
Catholick
is
it
,
which
marreth
the
matter
.
4.
That
whereas
our
Saviour
saith
it
is
as
easie
for
a
camel
to
pass
through
the
eye
of
a
needle
,
as
for
a
rich
man
to
enter
into
the
Kingdome
of
heaven
,
the
Pope
perverteth
that
saying
,
for
that
none
shall
have
no
pardons
,
but
such
as
pay
for
them
:
so
consequenly
the
rich
are
more
easie
to
enter
into
heaven
then
the
poore
,
because
the
one
can
have
pardons
when
he
will
,
but
the
other
is
not
able
to
purchase
it
,
and
thereupon
his
Majesty
concluded
the
Pope
to
be
justly
called
a
Merchant
of
mens
souls
,
as
is
set
forth
in
the
18.
of
the
Revelation
.
5.
His
Majesty
observed
a
quaint
interrogatory
put
to
a
jealous
Lover
,
out
of
that
famous
Comedy
of
Ignoramus
,
the
which
his
Majesty
highly
commended
,
viz.
whether
he
desired
most
,
or
rather
to
be
termed
Publius
Cornelius
,
or
Cornelius
Tacitus
;
in
further
approbation
of
which
Comedy
,
besides
in
opposition
and
dislike
of
another
Comedy
performed
and
acted
before
his
Majesty
by
the
Scholars
of
the
University
of
Oxford
,
that
as
in
Cambridge
one
Sleep
made
him
wake
;
so
in
Oxford
,
one
Wake
made
him
sleep
.
6.
That
Tobacco
was
the
lively
image
&
pattern
of
hell
,
for
that
it
had
by
allusion
in
it
all
the
parts
and
vices
of
the
world
wherby
hell
may
be
gained
;
to
wit
first
it
was
a
smoak
,
so
are
the
vanities
of
this
world
.
Secondly
,
it
delighteth
them
who
take
it
,
so
do
the
pleasures
of
the
world
delight
the
men
of
the
world
.
Thirdly
,
it
maketh
men
drunken
,
and
light
in
the
head
;
so
do
the
vanities
of
the
world
,
men
are
drunken
therewith
.
Fourthly
,
he
that
taketh
Tobacco
,
saith
he
cannot
leave
it
,
it
doth
bewitch
him
:
even
so
the
pleasures
of
the
world
make
men
loath
to
leave
them
,
they
are
for
the
most
part
so
inchanted
with
them
:
and
further
,
besides
all
this
,
it
is
like
hell
in
the
very
substance
of
it
;
for
it
is
a
stinking
loathsom
thing
,
and
so
is
hell
:
and
further
,
his
Majesty
professed
,
that
were
he
to
invite
the
Devil
to
a
dinner
,
he
should
have
these
three
dishes
.
1.
a
Pig
,
2.
a
Pole
of
Ling
,
and
Mustard
,
and
3.
a
pipe
of
Tobacco
for
digestare
.
7.
That
he
had
heard
an
old
Minister
say
,
touching
conformity
,
that
it
would
be
a
scandal
for
him
to
conform
,
and
yet
will
allow
that
his
son
may
do
it
,
as
if
he
living
a
fool
all
his
life
,
desired
so
to
die
.
8.
Heaven
is
governed
by
order
,
and
all
good
Angels
there
;
nay
,
hell
it self
could
not
well
subsist
without
some
order
,
and
the
very
devils
are
divided
into
Legions
,
and
have
their
Captains
.
How
can
any
Society
then
upon
earth
subsist
without
order
or
degrees
?
9.
That
the
often
mentioning
of
Abraham
,
Isaac
and
Jacob
in
the
Scripture
,
is
to
signifie
that
we
should
celebrate
the
memory
of
good
men
above
others
,
and
of
all
men
above
beasts
.
10.
That
all
humane
Laws
cannot
be
perfect
,
but
that
some
must
rest
in
the
discretion
of
the
Judge
,
although
an
innocent
man
do
perish
thereby
:
as
his
Majesty
further
conceived
,
that
a
Jury
may
cast
upon
evidence
,
and
a
Judge
may
give
a
just
sentence
,
yet
the
party
innocent
.
11.
We
should
not
be
like
the
Puritans
in
our
prayers
,
who
speak
to
God
,
as
to
their
fellows
,
and
sit
at
Christs
Table
,
as
with
their
companions
.
Let
us
joyn
reverence
with
the
sweet
confidence
we
have
in
Gods
love
.
12.
That
no
man
can
thrive
that
keepeth
a
whore
at
Rack
and
Manger
,
to
sit
openly
with
justification
.
That
to
rove
is
proper
to
expresse
the
action
of
the
body
,
but
to
rave
is
an
action
of
the
mind
.
13.
His
Majesty
would
not
admit
publick
,
disputation
betwixt
twelve
Papists
,
and
twelve
Protestants
,
himself
being
chosen
umpire
,
because
he
might
lose
more
,
that
would
not
be
satisfied
,
then
he
could
win
,
although
the
Papists
side
were
convicted
:
and
further
his
Majesty
declared
,
that
in
88
,
he
almost
converted
a
Papist
,
untill
my
new
convert
heard
of
the
Spanish
Invasion
.
14.
Vertue
is
easier
then
vice
,
or
the
essential
difference
betwixt
vice
and
vertue
,
is
truth
and
falshood
;
and
it
is
easier
and
lesse
pa●…s
to
tell
truth
then
a
lye
,
and
for
vices
of
the
senses
custom
is
all
in
all
;
for
to
one
that
hath
lived
honestly
,
it
is
as
much
shame
to
commit
sin
,
as
for
another
to
abstain
.
15.
The
art
of
Physicians
is
very
imperfect
,
for
I
doubt
not
but
for
every
disease
,
there
is
in
nature
a
several
simple
,
if
they
could
find
it
out
,
so
that
these
compounds
do
rather
shew
their
ignorance
then
their
knowledge
.
16.
The
Popish
Religion
is
like
●…mers
Iliads
of
the
siege
of
Troy
,
or
Virgils
Aene
des
of
the
beginning
of
Rome
,
both
of
them
had
a
foundation
of
truth
,
so
had
the
Papists
of
the
Bible
,
but
they
have
all
added
so
much
,
that
the
first
truth
is
almost
lost
.
17.
That
Monarchicall
Government
by
Secular
Kings
and
Priests
,
is
the
only
Ordinance
of
God
,
and
the
Republick
only
a
depraved
institution
of
man
for
depraved
ends
,
as
appears
manifestly
by
the
whole
current
of
Scripture
,
even
from
Adam
to
the
Primitive
Church
after
Christ.
18.
A
Preacher
preaching
before
his
Majesty
on
the
29.
Psalm
,
that
I
offend
not
in
my
tongue
,
he
could
have
wished
might
have
bin
before
so
many
women
,
because
they
are
most
unruly
therein
.
19.
That
there
were
many
wayes
to
find
out
truth
besides
evidence
of
reall
witnesse
,
as
it
was
in
the
businesse
of
Mr.
Haddock
,
who
was
reputed
good
,
yet
was
found
at
last
a
great
oflender
,
whereupon
his
Majesty
replyed
,
the
case
in
him
was
not
after
his
meaning
,
and
thereupon
insisted
further
to
exemplifie
his
offence
,
confessing
the
same
to
be
high
&
capital
in
respect
of
God
and
man
,
meaning
Mr.
Haddock
,
who
preached
in
his
sleep
,
that
his
Majesty
did
God
and
the
Countrey
good
service
,
in
discovering
that
man.
2.
That
his
practice
was
diabolical
&
a
new
way
to
sin
,
that
his
Majesty
never
heard
of
before
.
3.
That
he
did
therein
practice
against
God
himself
,
in
that
he
did
endeavour
to
make
his
own
inventions
as
the
oracle
of
God
,
and
by
that
means
to
bind
mens
consciences
thereto
to
believe
.
4.
That
his
Majesty
discovered
him
by
his
own
papers
and
notes
which
were
brought
unto
the
King
,
the
which
Mr.
Haddock
confessed
to
be
his
own
hand-writing
,
and
the
notes
of
his
Sermon
which
men
say
he
preached
in
his
sleep
,
but
for
answer
thereunto
,
said
he
only
noted
his
Sermons
first
in
writing
,
and
so
in
the
night
dreamed
thereof
,
and
of
the
same
thing
that
he
had
penned
before
,
but
by
his
answer
his
Majesty
convinced
him
upon
his
own
experience
concerning
dreams
and
visions
in
the
night
,
that
things
studied
or
mentioned
in
the
day
time
may
be
dreamed
of
in
the
night
,
but
always
irregularly
,
without
order
,
but
not
as
his
Sermons
were
,
both
good
and
learned
,
as
in
particular
in
that
very
Sermon
which
he
preached
before
his
Majesty
in
his
sleep
,
concernin
Davids
waters
,
Psalm
69.
where
in
he
treated
.
1.
physically
,
then
theologically
,
which
is
not
usual
in
dreams
so
to
do
.
5.
That
Mr.
Haddocks
sin
being
granted
for
liberty
,
and
good
,
then
would
all
sinnes
bee
protected
and
allowed
,
as
blasphemy
against
God
,
Treason
against
the
King
,
slander
against
any
man
;
and
at
last
all
defended
under
colour
of
being
asleep
:
and
further
his
Majesty
declared
his
opinion
,
that
the
reason
that
moved
the
aforesaid
Mr.
Haddock
to
put
in
practice
his
preaching
in
his
sleep
did
proceed
from
two
natural
infirmities
,
to
which
he
was
subject
,
the
one
was
stammering
in
speech
,
so
finding
himself
more
ready
to
speak
being
quiet
in
his
bed
,
and
his
eyes
shut
from
any
object
to
trouble
his
mind
,
he
could
utter
himself
more
perfectly
.
The
second
reason
was
his
practice
to
talk
in
his
sleep
:
these
two
as
the
King
conceived
,
put
him
on
to
that
soul
practise
and
illusion
of
Sathans
.
20.
The
King
professed
,
that
he
would
chuse
rather
to
turn
Turk
,
then
in
some
fables
to
believe
Bollarmine
:
and
further
declared
on
this
subject
,
that
miracles
,
as
now
used
and
maintained
amongst
the
Papists
,
to
the
end
to
confirm
a
false
belief
on
Saints
,
according
as
at
first
Christ
used
miracles
to
cause
and
confirm
a
true
belief
on
himself
,
as
is
further
declared
in
this
story
of
a
popish
miracle
.
In
Naples
,
one
of
the
chief
Cities
in
Italy
,
in
a
time
of
a
famous
siege
which
it
endured
,
the
Viceroy
thereof
made
a
severe
order
,
wherein
it
was
death
for
any
man
above
and
under
such
an
age
to
walk
without
a
sword
in
any
parts
throughout
the
City
,
which
not
long
time
had
passed
before
it
happened
,
that
as
himself
and
train
was
riding
through
the
streets
to
see
how
well
this
order
was
put
in
execution
,
that
he
espied
a
Gentleman
without
a
sword
,
which
being
brought
before
him
the
order
was
read
,
and
die
he
must
for
contempt
,
and
accord●…ng
to
the
order
he
was
to
be
hanged
upon
the
next
sign
post
:
the
Gentleman
pleaded
several
things
in
his
own
behalf
,
which
were
availing
,
and
seeing
he
must
die
,
desired
this
favour
of
the
Viceroy
,
that
he
might
not
die
so
ignominious
a
death
as
to
be
hanged
,
but
that
as
he
was
a
Gentleman
,
so
he
might
die
like
a
Gentleman
,
&
therefore
did
desire
●…hat
the
next
Gentleman
that
past
by
,
with
his
sword
might
run
him
through
,
which
request
being
so
reasonable
,
the
Viceroy
could
not
in
civility
deny
him
,
and
so
prorogued
the
execution
till
the
next
came
,
which
was
to
do
the
businesse
,
which
was
not
long
before
one
appeared
,
and
exactly
qual●…ied
for
the
business
.
,
Now
you
must
take
notice
,
that
this
man
that
came
on
,
had
n●…ly
come
from
a
gaming
house
,
imomach
that
he
had
lost
all
,
even
the
very
●…ade
of
his
sword
,
and
in
regard
of
that
severe
order
d●…st
not
go
home
,
untill
a
woodden
one
was
fi●…ed
to
●…ast
and
●…bard
;
so
being
stopt
,
the
dying
Gentlemans
req●…st
was
said
op●…n
unto
him
,
which
knowing
his
own
●…fficiency
for
that
〈◊〉
,
so
star●…led
him
,
that
he
fained
and
took
on
〈◊〉
terms
as
these
,
What
make
a
common
Executioner
of
me
?
what
,
stun
my
b●…od
to
Eternity
?
with
〈◊〉
like
,
w●…
all
proving
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
he
was
hard

,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
Viceroy
,
and
the
dying
Gentleman
,
he
waved
all
further
excuses
,
and
prepared
himself
to
the
work
,
and
so
putting
off
his
loose
garments
,
he
began
his
work
,
with
a
prayer
to
this
effect
,
O
Lord
God
,
which
seest
all
the
transactions
here
below
,
judge
I
pray
thee
the
right
of
those
that
suffer
wrong
,
and
in
an
especial
manner
grant
,
that
if
this
man
here
ought
not
to
dye
,
may
this
my
sword
be
turned
into
wood
,
so
plucking
it
forth
,
and
it
being
accordingly
as
we
mentioned
before
,
the
dying
Gentleman
was
released
with
abundance
of
joy
:
the
woodden
sword
was
carried
with
much
solemnity
,
and
hung
up
in
the
Cathedral
Church
,
as
a
true
link
to
the
chain
of
Popish
miracles
.
22.
Let
no
man
think
that
he
may
frame
and
make
his
wife
as
he
pleaseth
,
that
deceived
Solomon
,
the
wisest
King
that
ever
was
.
23.
That
his
Majesty
confested
,
that
he
read
more
Popish
books
than
Protestant
,
and
from
thence
findeth
matter
to
confirm
him
in
the
Protestant
Religion
:
and
he
farther
related
,
that
he
stiled
a
book
once
being
sent
him
by
the
name
of
Melchisedeck
,
being
without
beginning
or
ending
.
24.
That
many
learned
writers
have
recorded
things
for
truth
,
which
experience
hath
falsified
:
as
for
instance
,
his
Majesty
gave
his
own
experience
touching
the
worms
found
in
a
Stags
head
,
which
are
reported
to
dy
,
if
put
into
water
,
but
will
live
in
wine
,
the
which
being
tryed
,
they
live
equally
in
both
.
25.
If
the
Pope
may
erre
as
a
man
,
but
not
as
a
Pope
,
I
would
know
why
the
Pope
doth
not
instruct
or
reform
the
man
,
or
wherefore
the
man
doth
not
require
the
Popes
instruction
.
26.
Not
only
the
deliverance
of
the
Jews
till
they
came
to
the
Land
of
promise
,
but
even
their
daily
preservation
was
miraculous
;
for
there
was
never
any
noted
plague
in
Jerusalem
,
though
it
stood
in
a
hot
Climate
,
which
had
it
been
,
would
have
endangered
the
whole
Nation
,
it
being
to
assemble
thither
twice
every
year
of
necessity
.
27.
That
to
have
any
imployment
in
any
Republick
in
that
State
is
dangerous
,
for
do
he
well
or
ill
,
he
is
sure
to
rue
it
,
and
he
speedeth
best
that
doth
worst
,
like
a
Scottish
Tale
,
I
have
heard
of
one
that
never
sped
well
amongst
the
Lawyers
when
he
had
a
good
cause
,
because
he
then
least
suspected
it
,
&
the
other
side
bribed
and
countermanded
,
&
so
the
greatest
carried
it
for
the
most
part
,
even
so
in
Republicks
.
28
That
a
Germane
was
naturally
most
constant
to
himself
,
for
although
he
could
well
fashion
himself
to
any
Countrey
he
travelled
unto
,
yet
returning
home
to
his
own
,
he
would
appear
to
any
mans
judgment
,
nothing
changed
from
the
manner
and
condition
of
his
own
Nation
,
and
so
in
him
is
most
truly
fulfilled
this
saying
,
That
the
Heathen
change
not
,
but
all
persons
and
things
here
below
are
subject
to
change
,
but
with
the
English
or
any
other
Nation
,
it
is
otherwise
;
nay
,
farther
on
this
subject
,
his
Majesty
said
,
that
a
Frenchman
though
never
so
grave
and
sober
of
countenance
,
yet
one
time
or
other
would
have
his
frisk
of
vanity
.
29.
That
he
is
not
of
opinion
,
that
all
speeches
in
Scripture
,
touching
beasts
or
sowls
,
by
allegory
,
doth
agree
with
the
proper
and
peculiar
nature
of
them
,
as
of
that
,
Be
nise
as
Serpents
,
or
that
comparison
of
the
Ostrich
,
that
seemeth
to
neglect
her
young
by
leaving
her
eggs
in
the
dust
,
which
is
not
the
proper
nature
of
them
,
as
hath
been
approved
by
Barbary
Merchants
,
that
have
seen
them
,
but
itseems
so
outwardly
,
because
she
hideth
her
eggs
in
the
sand
,
and
so
removeth
a
little
from
them
,
but
for
no
other
end
,
but
to
protect
them
,
that
at
the
time
of
need
,
and
in
the
hatching
to
break
the
shell
,
which
of
it self
cannot
.
30.
Sir
Francis
Kinaston
by
experience
falsified
the
Alchimist
report
,
that
a
hen
being
fed
for
certain
days
with
gold
,
beginning
when
Sol
was
in
Leo
,
should
be
coverted
into
gold
,
and
should
lay
golden
eggs
,
which
be●…ng
tryed
,
was
no
such
thing
,
but
became
indeed
very'sat
;
his
Majesties
conceit
thereupon
was
,
that
surely
somewhat
was
omitted
in
Sir.
Francis
experiment
,
to
wit
,
he
wanted
faith
to
believe
,
as
himself
did
always
in
the
like
,
or
such
matters
,
but
one
thing
more
might
have
been
●…added
more
amply
to
satisfie
the
experiment
;
〈◊〉
the
Cock
had
been
first
fed
with
gold
,
and
afterwards
have
trodden
the
hen
,
might
happily
have
succeeded
the
better
.
31.
That
upon
report
made
to
his
Majesty
of
a
Goose
that
loved
a
man
,
that
it
would
never
be
from
him
,
wheresoever
he
went
,
and
upon
occasion
would
guard
him
from
offence
,
whereupon
his
Majesty
remembred
the
Goose
of
the
Capitol
;
and
further
he
said
,
he
thought
it
as
easie
to
prove
the
deceit
of
the
aforesaid
Goose
from
that
Goose
of
the
Capitol
,
as
the
Heralds
now
adayes
for
gain
do
prove
the
deceit
of
the
Gentlemen
of
these
times
.
32.
Whether
boldness
or
bashfulness
did
soonest
prevail
in
Court
?
his
Majesties
opinion
was
,
that
bashfulness
did
,
alluding
to
the
Lord
Duke
of
Buckingham
,
who
at
his
first
coming
to
Court
,
exceeded
in
bashfulness
,
and
when
his
Majesty
had
cast
his
eye
upon
him
,
the
Lord
of
Arundel
being
asked
by
his
Majesty
what
he
thought
of
him
,
he
answered
,
that
his
blushing
bashfulness
was
such
,
as
he
thought
he
would
do
but
little
good
in
Court
favours
.
33.
That
if
there
were
no
other
quarrel
between
the
Papists
and
the
Pro●…estants
,
but
the
number
of
Sacraments
he
himself
would
be
a
Papist
:
for
he
held
it
not
worth
the
quarrelling
,
as
appeared
by
a
Tale
of
two
friends
in
Scotland
,
being
great
in
friendship
,
and
in
their
cups
falling
out
about
that
subject
,
the
one
a
great
Papist
,
and
the
other
a
Protestant
,
so
they
fought
and
were
both
slain
:
a
third
said
,
before
he
would
have
lost
his
life
in
that
quarrel
he
would
have
divided
the
seven
into
three
and
twenty
&
half
to
end
that
controversie
.
34.
That
he
would
never
use
any
other
Argument
to
convince
the
Papists
of
their
opinion
of
Miracles
,
but
by
their
own
Doctrine
,
whereunto
most
of
their
miracles
are
altogether
repugnant
:
as
for
example
,
a
fable
they
have
that
the
picture
of
our
Lady
should
stir
;
their
Doctrine
is
,
that
these
images
are
but
Representative
,
now
what
disproportion
appeareth
between
their
opinion
and
their
Doctrine
?
35.
God
is
never
better
honoured
,
than
in
giving
him
true
worship
:
the
King
at
that
time
declared
himself
resolved
alwayes
to
kneel
at
the
Sacrament
,
and
that
for
to
testifie
his
humility
towards
God
,
being
a
King
,
and
the
rather
for
example
sake
to
others
that
are
set
under
him
,
he
said
he
would
not
have
willingly
a
gout
in
the
knee
,
alluding
to
Doctor
Lawds
Sermon
on
that
subject
a
little
before
,
and
his
Majesty
confessed
the
gout
of
the
knee
very
troublesom
,
and
that
by
a
particular
experiment
of
his
own
upon
an
accidental
hurt
,
which
he
received
on
his
foot
at
New-Market
,
being
to
receive
the
holy
Communion
on
Christmas-day
following
,
and
resolved
to
take
the
same
kneeling
as
aforesaid
,
provoked
his
whole
body
into
a
very
great
sweat
,
and
anguish
,
and
therefore
concluded
the
gout
in
the
knee
to
be
a
main
impediment
for
sacred
duties
;
and
further
said
he
,
Shall
we
not
exceed
the
Turks
,
who
in
their
false
worship
,
do
fall
down
flat
on
their
faces
,
rise
often
in
the
night
to
perform
their
false
worship
?
and
this
they
are
injoyned
to
do
,
or
otherwise
they
account
themselves
damned
.
36.
That
it
was
strange
to
look
into
the
life
of
Henry
the
eighth
,
how
like
an
Epicure
he
lived
.
It
was
once
demanded
by
King
Henry
the
eighth
,
of
one
,
what
he
might
do
to
be
saved
?
who
answered
,
that
he
had
no
cause
to
fear
,
having
lived
so
mighty
a
King
,
and
done
so
many
worthy
acts
in
his
life
time
:
but
oh
,
said
he
,
I
have
lived
too
like
a
King
,
which
King
James
inferred
was
rather
like
no
King
;
for
the
office
of
a
King
is
to
do
justice
and
equity
,
but
he
only
served
his
sensuality
like
a
beast
.
37.
No
Country
can
be
called
rich
,
wherein
there
is
war
,
as
in
the
low
Countries
,
there
is
much
money
,
but
the
Souldiers
have
it
in
pay
from
the
Governours
,
the
Boors
have
it
for
victuals
of
the
Souldiers
,
the
Governors
have
it
from
them
again
in
Taxes
,
so
there
is
no
center
,
no
honour
.
38.
That
it
hath
like
operation
to
make
women
learned
,
and
to
make
foxes
tame
,
which
teacheth
them
only
to
steal
more
cunningly
,
the
possibility
is
not
equal
,
for
where
it
doth
one
good
,
it
doth
twenty
harm
.
39.
On
an
espousal
of
marriage
,
his
Majesty
let
●…all
this
silver
saying
,
that
Parents
might
forbid
their
children
an
unfit
match
,
but
they
may
not
force
their
consent
to
a
fit
.
40.
The
Devil
alwayes
avoids
the
mean
,
and
waits
upon
extremity
:
so
hath
he
alwayes
sought
to
delude
the
world
betwixt
Atheism
and
Superstition
.
On
extremity
of
war
,
his
Majesty
further
observed
,
that
no
man
gains
by
war
,
but
he
that
hath
not
wherewith
to
live
in
peace
.
41.
All
extremities
come
round
to
one
end
,
the
simple
obedience
of
the
Papists
,
and
the
non-obedience
of
the
P●…ritans
,
the
one
bred
confusion
,
the
other
ignorance
and
security
.
42.
There
was
a
politick
Sermon
,
that
had
no
divinity
in
it
that
was
preached
before
K.
James
,
the
King
as
he
came
forth
,
said
to
Bishop
Andrews
,
call
you
this
a
Sermon
?
The
Bishop
answered
,
&
it
may
please
your
Majesty
,
by
a
charitable
construction
it
may
be
a
sermon
43.
Bishop
Andrews
was
asked
by
King
James
at
the
first
coming
over
of
the
Bishop
of
Spalato
,
whether
he
were
a
Protestant
or
no
:
he
answered
,
truly
I
know
not
,
but
he
is
a
detestant
of
divers
opinions
of
Rome
.
44.
An
ill
name
may
be
free
from
dishonesty
,
but
not
from
some
folly
,
we
should
not
only
be
free
from
〈◊〉
but
from
suspition
;
for
it
is
not
enough
to
be
well
lived
,
but
well
reported
,
and
oftentimes
weighty
matters
,
are
as
much
coloured
by
reputation
,
as
substance
.
45.
Misfortunes
are
not
acceptable
in
any
kind
,
yet
those
are
endured
with
most
ease
,
that
come
rather
by
destiny
than
deserving
.
46.
Cresus
said
to
Cambyses
,
that
peace
was
better
than
war
,
because
in
peace
the
sons
did
bury
their
fathers
,
but
in
wars
,
the
fathers
did
bury
their
sons
.
47.
Justice
should
be
blind
and
friendless
;
it
is
not
by
it
,
that
those
that
be
in
authority
should
reward
their
friends
,
or
cross
their
enemies
.
48.
Cato
Major
was
wont
to
say
,
that
wise
men
learned
more
by
fools
,
than
fools
by
wise
men
,
as
appears
by
this
following
example
:
a
certain
Duke
kept
a
fool
,
the
Duke
falling
sick
of
a
quartane
ague
,
it
in
a
short
time
came
to
pass
,
that
the
distemper
grew
to
that
height
,
that
his
Physicians
gave
it
forth
that
nothing
would
cure
him
of
that
malady
,
but
a
great
fright
,
which
thing
coming
to
the
fools
ear
,
he
waited
an
opportunity
to
effect
a
cure
for
the
Duke
,
which
he
thus
brought
about
,
taking
notice
in
what
part
of
his
garden
he
used
frequently
to
walk
in
near
a
River
,
he
got
himself
into
a
hollow
●…ree
near
hand
,
and
when
the
Duke
was
●…ast
by
him
,
he
rusheth
forth
,
&
thrusts
●…im
into
the
river
,
&
calls
out
to
those
that
waited
aloof
off
,
look
to
your
Duke
,
or
he
will
be
drown'd
else
,
so
they
●…un
with
all
speed
,
&
pluckt
him
forth
,
●…nd
in
two
or
three
dayes
,
the
Duke
was
perfectly
recovered
,
the
fool
absents
●…imself
,
for
fear
,
but
after
a
years
absence
●…eturns
to
Court
,
where
being
brought
●…efore
the
Duke
,
the
Duke
aggravates
his
fault
to
him
,
and
told
him
,
that
on
the
morrow
he
should
dye
for
it
;
the
fool
replyed
,
that
he
thought
the
Duke
no
harm
by
it
,
and
many
words
to
the
like
purpose
;
but
all
not
serving
,
he
the
next
morning
appeared
on
a
Scaffold
the
Duke
had
caused
to
be
erected
,
to
lose
his
head
;
so
the
hour
being
come
,
the
fool
laid
his
head
on
the
block
,
&
as
the
Duke
had
appointed
,
instead
of
cutting
his
head
off
,
he
caused
warm
water
to
be
poured
upon
his
neck
,
and
the
fool
with
very
fear
expired
,
to
the
great
grief
of
the
Duke
,
who
broke
forth
into
this
expression
upon
it
,
That
it
was
wisdom
for
fools
to
jest
with
wise
men
,
but
the
greatest
folly
in
the
world
,
for
wise
men
to
jest
with
fools
.

1.
AFflictions
cannot
be
esteemed
with
wise
and
godly
men
any
argument
of
sin
in
an
innocent
person
,
more
than
the
●…mpunity
of
wicked
men
is
amongst
good
men
any
sure
token
of
their
innocency
.
2.
That
in
the
direct
worship
of
God
himself
,
we
ought
to
be
guided
by
the
word
of
God
,
and
not
otherwise
,
but
in
the
form
and
order
of
Ceremonies
,
that
indeed
is
solely
left
to
the
Church

3.
When
the
King
first
entered
the
Castle
of
Ragland
,
the
Marquess
kissed
the
Kings
hand
,
and
rising
up
again
,
he
saluted
his
Majesty
with
this
complement
,
my
Lord
,
I
am
not
worthy
:
the
King
replyed
unto
the
Marquess
,
my
Lord
,
I
may
wel
answer
you
again
,
I
have
not
found
so
great
faith
in
Israel
,
for
no
man
would
trust
me
with
so
much
money
as
you
have
done
:
to
which
the
Marquess
replyed
,
I
hope
your
Majesty
will
prove
a
Defender
of
the
faith
.
4.
Prepare
for
war
when
thou
propoundest

otherwise
thy

A

Cur
,
though
he
wag
his

will
shew
his

,
the
best
Treaty
is
with
a

,
and
the
safest
peace
is
concluded
under
a
buckler
.
5.
As
it
is
one
of
the
most
convincing
Arguments
,
that
there
is
a
God
,
whilst
his
power
sets
bounds
to
the
raging
of
the
Sea
,
so
it
is
no
less
that
he
restrains
the
madness
of
the
people
,
nor
doth
any
thing
portend
more
Gods
displeasure
against
a
Nation
,
then
when
he
suffers
confluence
and
clamours
of
the
vulgar
to
pass
all
boundaries
of
Law
,
and
reverence
to
authority
.

When
King
Charls
had
made
his
repair
to
Rapland
,
after
the
Battel
of
Naseby
,
taking
occasion
to
thank
the
Marquess
for
some
mony
lent
his
Majesty
,
the
Marquess
returned
his
Majesty
this
answer
,
Sir
I
had
your
word
for
my
money
,
but
I
never
thought
I
should
be
so
soon
repaid
,
for
now
you
have
given
me
thanks
,
I
have
all
I
look
for

Upon
a
discourse
of
the
singular
parts
,
which
Doctor
John
Donne
Dean
of
Pauls
,
was
indowed
withal
,
he
took
occasion
to
speak
of
his
marriage
,
who
marrying
into
a
rich
and
honourable
Family
,
being
much
above
his
Degree
,
and
against
his
wives
fathers
consent
,
insomuch
that
the
father
would
give
her
no
Portion
,
which
the
Doctor
then
perceiving
,
took
his
Pen
and
writ
(
and
sent
it
to
the
old
man
)
in
this
manner
,
John
Donne
,
Anne
Donne
,
undone
,
which
wrought
good
effects
on
the
old
man.

His

being

in
the
true
Protestant
Religion
,
in
a

doth

God
blessed
the

,
which
Noahs

bear
to
their

nor
did
his
open
infirmity
justifie
Chams

,
nor
exempt
him
from
that
curse
of
being
servant
of
servants
,
which
curse
must
needs
be
on
them
who
seek
by
dishonourable
actions
to

A
Bishop
rising
up
in
arms
against
his
Prince
,
was
overthrown
,
and
himself
being
then
clad
in
Armour
,
was
taken
prisoner
,
and
by
the
Kings
express
command
clapt
up
:
the
Pope
hearing
of
it
,
sends
to
the
King
,
complaining
or
breach
of
the
Church-priviledges
,
that
one
o●…
her
sons
should
be
imprisoned
:
the
King
sends
back
the
Messenger
,
and
with
him
the
Armour
taken
from
the
Bishop
,
desiring
the
Pope
to
send
him
word
,
whether
those
were
the
garments
of
any
of
his
sons

Popular
tumults
,
are
not
like
a

,
which

its

like
an
earth-quake
,
shaking
the
very
foundations
of
all
,
then
which
nothing
in
the
world
hath
more
horror
.
27.
It
matters
not
much
,
whether
in
Government
thou
tread
the
steps
of
severe
Hannibal
,
or
gentle
Scipio
,
so
thy
actions
be
honourable
,
and
thy
life
vertuous
,
both
in
the
one
and
in
the
other
,
there
is
defect
and
danger
,
if
not
corrected
and
supported
by
the
fair
repute
of
some
extraordinary
indowments
:
No
matter
black
or
white
,
so
the
Steed

.
28.
That
it
is
an
hardiness
beyond
true
valour
,
for
a
wise
man
to
set
himself
against
the
breaking
in
of
a
Sea
,
which
to
effect
at
present
threatens
imminent
danger
,
but
to
withdraw
gives
it
space
to
spend
its
fury
,
and
gains
a
fitter
time
to
repair
the
breach
.
Certainly
a
gallant
man
had
rather
fight
to
get
disadvantages
for
number
and
place
in
the
field
in
an
orderly
way
,
than
se
ussle
with
an
indisciplin'd
Rabble
.
29.
Sir
Henry
Bard
,
who
was
Lord
Bellameunt
,
coming
into
the
Hall
of
Ragland
,
and
seeing
so
many
Tables
furnished
with
food
,
and
seeders
,
sware
that
his
Majesty
had
a
plo●…
to
destroy
that
Family
,
first
in
borrowing
all
the
old
mans
money
,
and
then
in
coming
thus
to
eat
up
his
victuals
:
which
h●…s
Majesty
hearing
smiled
at
:
but
the
Marquess
asked
the
man
who
made
the
relation
unto
him
,
of
what
Garison
the
Lord
Bellameunt
was
Governour
;
it
was
told
his
Lordship
,
that
he
was
Governour
of
Cambden
house
;
the
Marquess
replyed
,
that
when
the
King
had
done
as
he
said
,
that
then
his
Majesty
m●…ght
go
to
his
Garison
,
and
there
he
m●…ght
have
Cambdens
Remains
.

There
be
three
sorts
of
Government
,
Monarchical
,
Historical
,
Democratical
,
and
they
are
apt
to
fall
three
several
wayes
into
ruine
.
The
first
by
Tyranny
,
the
second
by
ambition
,
the
last
by
t●…mulr
.
A
Common-weal
grounded
upon
any
of
these
,
is
but
of
short
continuance
,
but
being
wisely
mingled
,
either
guard
the
other
,
and
makes
the
government
exact
.
31.
A
certain
Court
Lady
,
being
very
extravagant
in
all
pleasures
of
this
life
,
was
admonished
to
steer
another
course
,
and
being
prest
hard
by
the
Minister
,
of
the
van●…ty
of
all
earthly
things
set
forth
so
fully
by
Solomon
,
she
answered
,
What
tell
you
me
of
Solom●…n
?
Solomon
never
said
they
were
vanity
●…ntil
he
had
tried
them
,
even
so
will
I
do
,
and
then
I
will
tell
you
my
judgement
of
them
:
His
Majesties
opinion
of
it
was
,
That
she
was
led
more
by
sense
than
faith
.
32.
The
Mahometans
live
in
such
exemplary
concord
,
that
they
seldom
break
into
ill
language
,
but
if
they
do
so
,
a
third
man
will
reprove
them
,
with
a
Fye
Mussel-man
fall
out
!
and
all
is
appeased
,
h●…s
Majesties
determination
on
this
was
,
That
Christianity
would
be
far
more
be●…ful
than
it
is
,
if
it
could
be
brought
to
such
a
degree
of
perfection
.
33.
A
man
being
a
great
observer
of
Dreams
,
dreamed
,
that
all
Dreams
were
vain
;
which
when
he
awoke
,
he
was
in
a
maze
to
consider
of
it
;
but
at
last
recollecting
himself
,
he
thought
that
if
all
Dreams
were
vain
,
then
this
was
vain
and
all
the
rest
true
;
but
them
again
,
if
this
Dream
was
true
,
then
all
his
other
Dreams
were
vain
;
so
in
this
labyrinth
I
leave
him
.
His
majesties
judgment
on
it
was
,
That
dream
had
much
altered
the
case
of
his
former
judgment
on
that
subject
.
34.
Sir
John
Hotham
a
notable
monument
of
unprosperous
disloyalty
teached
the
world
by
so
sad
and
unfortunate
a
spectacle
,
that
the
rude
carriage
of
a
subject
towards
his
Soveraign
carries
alwayes
its
own
vengeance
,
as
an
unseparable
shadow
with
it
.
35.
Some
men
have
so
much
of
the
Serpents
subtilty
,
that
they
forget
the
Doves
simplicity
.
36.
No
men
are
prone
to
be
greater
Tyrants
,
and
more
rigorous
exactors
upon
others
to
conform
to
their
illegal
novelties
,
than
such
whose
pride
was
formerly
least
disposed
to
the
obedience
of
lawful
constitutions
,
and
whose
licentious
humours
most
pretended
conscientious
liberties
.

In
the
war
,
the
King
came
to
a
Castle
,
and
told
the
Lord
thereof
,
that
he
thought
not
to
have
stayed
with
his
Lordship
above
3.
days
,
but
his
occasion
requiring
a
longer
stay
,
and
considering
that
it
was
a
Garrison
,
and
that
his
provision
might
be
spent
by
so
great
a
pressure
,
was
willing
his
Lordship
should
take
what
provision
the
Countrey
would
afford
for
his
present
maintenance
,
and
recruit●…
to
which
his
Lordship
answered
;
I
humbly
tha●…
〈◊〉
Majesty
,
but
my
〈◊〉
will
never
stand
〈◊〉
,
i●…
it
le●…ns
upon
the
〈◊〉
,
&
I
had
rather
be
brought
to
a
m●…rsel
of
bread
,
than
any
m●…rsels
of
bread
should
be
brought
in
to
cu●…in
your
M●…sty

Carry
a
watchful
eye
upon
dangers
till
they
come
to
ripeness
,
and
when
they
are
ripe
,
let
loose
a
speedy
hand
,
he
that
expects
them
too
long
,
meets
them
too
late
,
and
he
that
meets
them
too
soon
,
gives
advantage
to
the
evil
.
Commit
their

to
Argus

Fortune
hath
no
power
over
wisdom

of
sensuality

and
of
Lives
that

and
Judgment

Aristarchus
scoffingly
said
,
That
in
old
time
hardly
could
be
found
seven
wise
men
throughout
the
world
,
but
in
one
day
,
quoth
he

much
ado
there
is
to
find
so
many
fools

After
Antigenus
had
been
sick
a
long
time
of
a
lingring
disease
,
and
well
recovered
again
,
We
have
,
said
he
,
got
no
harm
by
this
long
sickness
;
for
th●…s
hath
taught
us
not
to
be
so
proud
,
by
p●…tting
us
in
mind
,
that
we
are
but
mortal
:
his
Majesties
determination
of
it
was
,
That
were
he
real
,
he
had
by
it
learned
a
most
divine
Less●…n
.
42.
That
an
infallid
thing
may
be
discerned
and
known
by
a
fallid
means
:
As
for
example
,
our
senses
are
fallid
,
but
by
them
we
know
many
things
infallid
;
whence
the
Papists
inferre
,
that
because
the
Church
is
visible
,
therefore
the
chief
head
must
be
visible
.
The
universal
Church
consisteth
of
two
parties
,
the
one
visible
,
the
other
invisible
;
to
wit
,
a
visible
body
,
and
an
invisible
spirit
,
and
therefore
the
chief
head
of
the
Church
should
rather
be
visible
,
but
we
grant
many
visible
substitutes
over
the
Church
,
as
subordinate
Rulers
under
the
chief
.

Sir
Thomas
Somerset
,
brother
to
the
Marquess
of
Worcester
,
had
a
house
which
they
called
Troy
,
five
miles
from
Ragland
Castle
:
this
Sir
Thomas
being
a
compleat
Gentleman
of
himself
,
delighted
himself
much
in
fine
Gardens
and
Orchards
,
where
by
the
benefit
of
art
the
earth
was
made
so
graceful
to
him
at
the
same
time
,
that
the
King
happened
to
be
at
his
brothers
house
,
that
it
yielded
him
wherewithal
to
send
his
brother
Worcester
a
present
,
and
such
an
one
as
the
time
&
place
considered
was
●…ble
to
make
the
King
to
believe
,
that
the
Soveraign
of
the
Planets
had
new
changed
the
Poles
,
and
that
Woles
,
the
re●…use
and
outcast
of
the
fair
Garden
of
England
,
had
fairer
and
riper
fruit
than
Englands
bowels
had
on
all
her
beds
,
this
presented
to
the
Marquess
,
the
Marquess
would
not
suffer
to
be
presented
to
the
King
,
by
any
other
hand
than
his
own
,
in
comes
the
Marquess
at
the
latter
end
of
Sapper
,
led
by
the
arm
,
with
a
slow
pace
,
expressing
much
a
Spanish
gravity
,
with
a
silver
dish
in
each
hand
filled
with
rarities
,
and
a
little
basket
on
his
arm
,
as
a
reserve
,
where
making
his
obeysance
,
he
thus
speaks
,
May
it
please
your
Majesty
,
if
the
four
Elements
could
have
been
robd
to
have
entertained
your
Majesty
,
I
think
I
had
but
done
my
duty
;
but
I
must
do
as
I
may
,
if
I
had
sent
to
Bristol
for
some
good
things
to
entertain
your
Majesty
,
that
had
been
no
wonder
at
all
,
if
I
had
procured
from
London
some
goodness
,
that
might
have
been
acceptable
to
your
Majesty
,
but
here
I
present
your
Majesty
(
placing
his
dishes
upon
the
Table
)
with
what
,
that
came
not
from
Lincoln
,
that
was
not
London
,
that
is
not
York
that
is
to
be
,
but
I
assure
your
Majesty
,
that
this
Present
came
from
Troy
;
whereupon
the
King
smiled
,
and
answered
the
Marquess
,
Truly
my
Lord
,
I
have
heard
,
That
corn
now
grows
where
Troy
Town
stood
,
but
I
never
thought
there
had
grown
any
Apricocks
there
before
.
Whereupon
the
Marquess
replyed
,
any
thing
to
please
your
Majesty
:
when
my
Lord
Marquess
departed
the
presence
,
one
told
his
Lordsh●…p
,
that
he
would
make
a
very
good
Courtier
,
the
Marquess
said
,
I
remember
I
said
one
thing
that
may
give
you
some
hopes
of
me
,
Any
thing
to
please
your
Majesty
.
44.
The
first
night
his
Majesty
came
into
Rag●…and
Castle
,
the
King
desired
to
see
the
great
Tower
,
where
his
Lordship
did
use
to
keep
his
Treasure
,
his
Majesty
spake
au●…o
Doctor
Baily
then
standing
by
to
fetch
the
keys
;
he
ran
down
to
the
Marquess
and
acquainted
him
with
the
Kings
pleasure
,
who
would
needs
bring
them
to
the
King
,
and
shew
him
the
Tower
himself
:
when
the
King
saw
the
Marquess
bringing
the
keys
himself
,
he
●…aus
spake
unto
the
Marquess
,
My
Lord
,
there
are
some
men
so
unreasonable
,
as
to
make
me
believe
,
that
your
Lordship
hath
good
store
of
gold
yet
lest
within
t●…s
Tower
,
but
I
knowing
how
I
have
exhausted
you
,
together
〈◊〉
your
own
occasions
,
could
never
have
believed
it
until
now
I
see
you
will
not
trust
the
keyes
with
any
but
your self
:
to
which
the
Marquess
made
this
reply
,
Sir
,
I
was
so
far
from
giving
your
Majesty
any
such
occasion
of
thought
by
this
tender
of
my
duty
that
I
protest
unto
you
,
that
I
was
once
resolved
that
your
Majesty
should
have
lain
there
,
but
that
I
was
loath
to
commit
your
Majesty
to
the
Tower.
45.
When
the
King
first
entred
the
gates
of
Ragland
,
the
Marquess
delivered
his
Majesty
the
keyes
according
to
the
ordinary
custom
,
the
King
restoring
them
to
the
Marquess
,
the
Marquess
said
,
I
beseech
your
Majesty
to
keep
them
if
you
please
,
for
they
are
in
a
good
hand
,
but
I
am
afraid
that
ere
it
be
long
,
I
shall
be
forced
to
deliver
them
into
the
hands
of
those
who
will
spoil
the
Complement
.
46.
H●…s
Majesty
professed
that
he
could
not
fix
his
love
on
one
that
was
never
angry
;
for
as
he
that
is
without
sorrow
is
without
gladness
;
so
he
that
is
without
Anger
,
is
without
Love.
47.
Upon
discourse
of
life
,
his
Majesty
observed
that
it
was
one
of
the
fol●…es
of
man
,
that
when
he
was
full
of
dayes
,
and
near
his
end
,
that
then
he
should
love
life
most
.
48.
Cato
said
,
to
which
his
Majesty
assents
,
That
the
lest
way
to
keep
good
Acts
in
memory
,
was
to
refresh
them
with
new
.
49.
King
Charls
coming
to
Ragland
,
it
being
when
the
tall
Cedar
of
our
Lebanon
was
brought
so
low
,
and
those
Sycomores
flourished
,
when
the
Royal
Oak
was
in
the
fall
of
the
leaf
,
it
happened
that
his
Majesty
was
at
bowls
upon
Ragland
Castle
Green
,
a
place
proudly
situated
,
where
after
he
had
ended
his
Recreation
,
his
Majesty
was
pleased
to
delight
himself
with
observing
the
Co●…ntrey
round
about
,
it
happened
,
that
one
Prichard
,
the
Kings
partner
at
bowls
,
presuming
more
upon
his
good
bowling
,
than
good
manners
,
continued
that
familiarity
,
that
should
have
ended
with
the
rubbers
,
shewing
the
King
where
his
house
stood
,
&
told
his
Majesty
that
he
must
look
through
the
wood
,
and
he
might
see
a
white
thing
,
and
that
was
it
:
moreover
acquainted
his
Majesty
,
what
the
Lord
of
Wercester
had
advised
him
,
viz.
to
cut
down
some
of
those
trees
,
that
the
house
might
plainly
be
discerned
from
the
Green
,
whereby
his
Lordship
when
he
wanted
a
good
bowler
,
might
make
a
sign
,
and
so
have
him
at
a
beck
:
to
which
the
King
replyed
,
Mr.
Prichard
,
let
me
give
you
better
advice
,
put
up
more
trees
where
the
trees
are
so
thin
,
that
my
Lord
of
Worcester
may
not
see
thy
house
at
all
.
The
Marquess
of
Worcester
supposing
the
King
had
dreamed
of
this
greediness
,
of
purchasing
all
the
Land
which
was
near
unto
him
,
shewed
his
Majesty
a
row
of
trees
,
and
told
the
King
,
that
beyond
that
row
of
trees
stood
a
pretty
Tenement
,
and
because
he
would
not
have
Naboths
vineyard
to
be
an
eye-sore
to
him
,
he
had
planted
those
trees
to
hoodwink
his
eyes
from
such
temptations
.
50
God
made
one
part
of
man
of
earth
,
the
basest
element
,
to
teach
him
〈◊〉
lity
,
his
soul
proceeded
from
the
bosom
of
himself
,
to
teach
him
goodness
;
so
that
if
he
look
downward
nothing
is
viler
,
if
he
cast
his
eyes
to
heaven
,
he
is
of
a
matter
more
excellent
than
the
Angels
.
The
former
part
was
a
type
of
Adam
,
the
second
of
Christ
,
which
gives
life
to
that
which
was
dead
in
it self
.
APOPHTHEGMS
OF
THE
EARL
OF
VVORCESTER
.
1
AT
the
Kings
being
at
Ragland
,
there
were
some
information
given
of
some
Gentlemen
of
the
County
,
who
were
supposed
to
have
done
his
Majesty
many
ill
offices
,
by
withdrawing
the
hearts
of
the
people
from
his
Majesty
:
these
men
thus
accused
,
were
ordered
to
be
laid
hold
of
,
and
it
was
executed
accordingly
,
and
they
being
brought
before
his
Majesty
,
it
was
moved
by
some
,
that
they
should
be
forthwith
tryed
by
a
Commission
of
Oyer
and
Terminer
,
others
advised
his
Majesty
they
should
be
sent
to
Hereford
,
and
there
to
be
kept
in
safe
custody
,
until
further
consultation
might
be
had
concerning
them
,
they
excusing
themselves
as
well
as
they
could
,
one
of
them
protesting
his
innocency
with
tears
in
his
eyes
;
the
King
ordered
,
that
he
should
be
released
,
being
always
prone
to
lean
to
pity
rather
than
Justice
,
and
to
favourable
rather
than
rigid
construction
.
The
King
coming
back
from
Alergeveny
,
where
this
was
put
in
execution
,
told
the
Marquess
what
he
had
done
,
and
that
when
he
saw
them
speak
so
honestly
,
he
could
not
but
give
some
credit
to
their
words
,
so
seconded
by
tears
,
and
withal
told
the
Marquess
that
he
had
onely
sent
them
to
prison
,
whereupon
the
Marquess
said
,
what
to
do
?
to
poyson
that
Garison
?
Sir
,
you
should
have
done
well
to
have
heard
their
accusations
,
and
then
to
have
shewed
what
mercy
you
pleased
.
The
King
told
him
,
that
he
heard
they
were
accused
by
some
contrary
Faction
,
as
to
themselves
,
who
out
of
distast
they
bore
to
one
another
upon
old
grudges
,
would
be
apt
to
charge
them
more
home
than
the
nature
of
their
offences
had
deserved
:
to
whom
the
Marquess
made
this
return
,
Well
Sir
,
you
may
chance
to
gain
you
the
Kingdom
of
heaven
by
such
doings
as
these
,
but
if
ever
you
get
the
Kingdom
of
England
,
by
such
wayes
,
I
will
be
your
bond-man
.
2.
The
Marquess
had
a
mind
to
tell
the
King
as
handsomly
as
he
could
of
some
of
his
(
as
he
thought
)
faults
,
and
thus
he
contrived
his
plot
against
the
time
,
that
his
Majesty
was
wont
to
give
his
Lordship
a
visit
,
as
commonly
he
used
to
do
after
dinner
,
his
Lordship
had
the
book
of
John
Gower
lying
before
him
on
the
Table
,
the
King
casting
his
eye
upon
the
book
,
told
the
Marquess
,
that
he
had
never
seen
it
before
,
O
said
the
Marquess
,
it
is
a
book
of
books
,
which
if
your
Majesty
had
been
well
versed
in
,
it
would
have
made
you
a
King
of
Kings
;
Why
so
my
Lord
,
said
the
King
?
Why
said
the
Marquess
,
here
is
let
down
how
Aristotle
brought
up
and
instructed
Alexander
the
great
in
all
his
iudiments
and
principles
belonging
to
a
Prince
;
and
under
the
persons
of
Alexander
and
Aristotle
,
he
read
the
King
such
a
lesson
,
that
all
the
standers
by
were
amazed
at
his
boldness
,
and
the
King
supposing
that
he
had
gone
further
than
his
Text
would
have
given
him
leave
,
asked
the
Marquess
,
whether
he
had
his
lesson
by
heart
,
or
whether
he
spake
out
of
the
book
:
the
Marquess
replyed
,
Sir
,
if
you
could
read
my
heart
,
it
may
be
,
you
might
find
it
there
,
or
if
your
Majesty
please
to
get
it
by
heart
,
I
will
lead
you
my
book
,
which
latter
proffer
the
King
accepted
of
,
and
did
borrow
it
:
nay
said
the
Marquess
,
I
will
lend
it
you
upon
these
conditions
,
1.
That
you
read
it
,
2.
That
you
make
use
of
it
:
but
perceiving
how
some
of
the
new
made
Lords
fretted
and
bit
the
thumbs
,
at
certain
passages
in
the
Marquesses
Discourse
he
thought
a
little
to
please
his
Majesty
,
though
he
displeased
them
,
the
men
who
were
so
much
displeased
already
,
protesting
unto
his
Majesty
,
that
no
man
was
so
much
for
the
absolute
power
of
a
King
,
as
Aristotle
,
desiring
the
book
out
of
the
Kings
hand
,
he
told
the
King
he
would
shew
him
one
remarkable
passage
to
that
purpose
,
turning
to
that
place
,
that
had
this
verse
,
viz.
A
King
can
kill
,
a
King
can
save
,
A
King
can
make
a
Lord
a
knave
.
And
of
a
knave
a
Lord
also
.
Whereupon
there
were
divers
new
made
Lords
,
who
slank
out
of
the
room
,
which
the
King
observing
,
told
the
Marquess
,
My
Lord
,
at
this
rate
you
will
drive
away
all
my
Nobility
;
the
Marquess
replyed
,
I
protest
unto
your
Majesty
,
I
am
as
new
a
made
Lord
,
as
any
of
them
all
,
but
I
was
never
called
knave
and
rogue
so
much
in
all
my
life
,
as
I
have
been
since
I
received
this
last
honour
,
and
why
should
not
they
bear
their
shares
?
3.
The
Marquess
travelling
,
was
as
he
thought
surprized
by
enemies
,
but
recovering
the
top
of
a
high
Mountain
,
by
the
advantage
of
the
ground
he
could
see
the
enemy
marching
off
another
way
,
at
which
sight
the
Marquess
dwelt
with
his
eyes
a
little
longer
upon
that
object
,
then
the
L.
John
Somerset
his
son
thought
convenient
,
whereunto
the
Marquess
made
this
reply
,
O
son
,
I
love
to
see
my
own
danger
,
especially
when
it
is
marching
of
.
4.
The
Marquess
travelling
on
the
way
,
happened
to
come
to
a
place
wherein
was
seen
a
miracle
,
which
the
tradition
of
those
parts
reports
to
have
been
wrought
,
occasioned
upon
Saint
Davids
preaching
unto
3000
people
,
who
that
he
might
the
better
be
heard
,
the
ground
it
is
said
to
rise
up
in
a
round
knob
,
whereupon
Saint
David
pitched
his
Cross
whereon
he
leaned
whilst
he
was
preaching
,
which
Cross
was
yet
standing
with
some
words
,
and
letters
,
which
time
had
made
unlegible
,
and
that
Saint
David
had
caused
a
Church
to
be
erected
in
that
place
,
as
a
memorial
of
so
great
a
miracle
:
this
relation
made
the
Marquess
very
desirous
to
view
the
place
,
the
Church
,
and
the
Cross
,
and
standing
in
the
Church
yard
,
every
man
endeavoured
to
make
something
of
the
obliterated
superscription
,
and
no
man
could
,
for
there
were
only
these
worn
pieces
of
characters
to
be
seen
,
viz.
Crx.
Xt●…
Dd.
and
a
piece
of
an
S.
which
my
Lord
presently
read
it
Crux
Christi
Davidis
,
which
we
all
wondring
that
no
man
could
find
it
out
,
it
afterwards
appearing
to
be
so
plain
,
he
told
,
as
look
you
now
,
I
without
my
Spectacles
and
ill
eyes
could
read
it
sooner
than
all
you
that
needed
none
,
and
had
good
eyes
,
it
is
not
a
good
eye
,
but
a
good
faith
that
attains
to
the
knowledg
of
such
things
which
you
pore
so
much
upon
,
the
like
you
lose
the
meaning
,
now
I
will
tell
you
how
I
came
to
find
it
out
,
I
considered
what
had
been
told
me
,
with
the
help
wherof
I
came
to
unstand
what
the
words
might
signifie
,
so
that
in
this
I
am
sure
tradition
was
a
means
to
help
me
to
the
true
understanding
of
the
Scripture
.
Leaving
the
place
,
as
we
were
going
along
by
the
Church
yard
rails
,
there
was
an
old
woman
naked
as
ever
she
was
born
,
who
kept
her
Hermitage
between
the
roots
of
an
overgrown
hollow
tree
,
she
was
the
most
lamentable
spectacle
of
Mortality
that
ever
eyes
beheld
,
her
eyes
as
hollow
as
a
dead
mans
scul
,
and
her
head
as
bare
,
nothing
but
skin
and
bone
,
her
breasts
hanging
down
like
two
leathern
pockets
,
and
her
belly
like
a
Satchel
,
her
tawny
skin
looking
rather
as
if
it
had
been
loose
garments
to
the
bo●…es
,
then
confines
to
any
flesh
and
blood
,
in
a
word
it
frightned
us
all
,
only
the
Marquess
was
in
love
with
her
,
protesting
that
he
never
saw
a
sight
which
did
him
so
much
good
,
saying
,
How
happy
were
it
for
a
man
that
is
going
to
bed
to
his
grave
,
to
be
first
wedded
to
this
woman
.
4.
The
Marquess
on
discourse
about
Religion
,
said
,
That
God
was
fain
to
deal
with
wicked
men
as
men
do
with
frisking
jades
in
a
pasture
:
that
cannot
take
them
up
till
they
get
them
to
a
gate
:
so
wicked
men
will
not
be
taken
up
till
the
hour
of
death
.
5.
Treating
of
youth
,
the
Marquess
said
,
that
it
was
the
best
course
for
Parents
and
Tutors
to
teach
children
:
that
when
they
are
young
,
they
may
put
in
practice
,
when
they
are
grown
up
in
riper
years
.

Philo
Jude●…s
saith
,
to
which
the
Marquess
assents
,
that
the
sense
is
like
the
Sun
,
for
the
Sun
seals
up
the
globe
of
heaven
,
and
opens
the
globe
of
earth
,
so
the
sense
doth
obscure
heavenly
things
,
and
reveal
earthly
things
.
7.
He
was
wont
to
say
,
that
a
plain
dealing
friend
,
whose
friendly
Counsel
was
requited
with
choler
and
disgust
,
was
like
a
turf
,
that
whilst
a
man
bestowed
breath
upon
it
to
enliven
it
,
it
returns
thanks
to
the
well-willer
,
by
spitting
fire
in
his
face
.

Dr.
Baily
living
at
Ragland
castle
three
years
,
in
all
that
time
never
saw
man
drunk
,
nor
heard
an
oath
amongst
any
of
all
his
servants
,
and
very
rare
it
was
to
see
a
better
ordered
Family
,
but
that
which
was
most
wonderful
was
,
half
his
servants
being
Protestants
,
and
half
Papists
,
yet
never
were
at
variance
in
point
of
Religion
:
which
was
brought
about
by
prohibiting
disputation
,
neither
was
any
man
less
accepted
for
his
Religion
,
if
his
service
was
acceptable
,
but
when
the
Castle
,
was
filled
with
Officers
&
Souldiers
,
he
used
to
be
much
grieved
to
hear
and
see
the
Oaths
and
drunkenness
,
that
was
then
and
there
too
much
practised
;
insomuch
,
that
when
some
of
his
chief
Officers
had
told
him
how
they
had
fortified
such
and
such
a
place
so
and
so
,
and
that
here
the
enemy
could
not
come
,
and
there
it
was
impossible
,
I
,
but
said
my
Lord
,
you
have
left
the
main
place
open
and
unfortified
;
you
have
made
no
fortification
against
heaven
,
for
there
is
such
swearing
and
drunkenness
amongst
you
,
that
I
fear
me
,
that
from
thence
will
come
you●…
greatest
enemy
,
and
you
have
made
no
provision
against
him
.
9.
As
the
Marquess
was
in
his
travel
from
Dneb
.
shire
toward
Ragland
,
he
determined
to
lye
in
a
poor
Town
called
Bala
in
Mer●…neth
shire
,
where
being
come
,
upon
misinformation
,
that
they
were
enemies
,
the
people
gazed
on
them
like
Owls
,
and
no
Officer
belonging
to
the
Town
,
would
be
spoken
withal
:
At
last
,
one
of
the
Marquesses
retinue
espied
a
young
man
,
who
had
a
Ribbon
on
his
hat
with
Vive
le
Roy
in
it
,
to
whom
he
applyed
himself
,
and
told
him
,
that
he
by
his
favour
should
be
one
that
loved
the
King
,
and
that
there
was
such
a
Nobleman
,
who
had
served
the
King
in
no
small
measure
,
who
was
likely
to
ly
in
the
streets
for
want
of
a
Lodging
:
the
young
man
shewed
immediately
great
respect
,
telling
his
Lordship
,
that
he
should
be
welcom
to
his
Mothers
house
,
who
kept
a
poor
Inn.
So
into
the
house
his
retinue
went
,
finding
it
a
most
lamentable
receptacle
for
such
a
person
,
yet
better
than
none
at
all
;
the
Parlour
where
my
Lord
was
to
lye
,
was
a
soft
and
loose
ground
,
wherein
you
might
sink
up
to
the
ancles
every
step
,
the
top
of
the
house
being
thatched
with
ill
thrasht
straw
,
the
corn
was
left
in
the
straw
,
wherewith
the
house
was
thatched
,
grew
,
and
was
all
as
green
as
grass
.
The
Marquess
by
that
time
that
we
had
got
a
good
fire
,
and
laid
some
loose
boards
over
the
sloor
,
came
near
the
house
,
who
seeing
the
manner
of
the
house
top
,
and
the
parlour
bottom
,
said
,
That
he
lay
over
a
bog
,
and
under
a
Meadow
:
but
it
being
known
who
he
was
,
the
Mayor
of
the
Town
with
singular
respect
and
much
humanity
,
came
to
the
Marquess
,
excusing
his
ignorance
,
and
misunderstanding
,
offering
all
the
civilities
of
his
own
house
,
for
which
my
Lord
gave
him
many
and
hearty
thanks
,
breaking
forth
into
this
Meditation
,
Lord
what
a
thing
this
misunderstanding
is
!
I
warrant
you
might
but
the
King
and
Parliament
confer
together
,
as
you
and
I
have
done
,
there
might
be
as
right
an
understanding
betwixt
them
,
as
there
is
now
betwixt
you
and
I
,
some
body
hath
told
the
Parliament
,
that
the
King
was
an
enemy
,
and
their
believing
of
him
to
be
such
,
hathwrought
all
the
jealousies
which
are
come
to
these
distractions
,
the
Parliament
being
now
in
such
a
case
as
I
my self
am
,
having
green
ears
over
their
heads
,
and
false
ground
under
their
feet
.

The
Marquess
of
Worcester
calling
for
a
glass
of
Claret
wine
,
it
was
told
him
by
his
Physician
,
that
Claret
wine
was
naught
for
his
gout
;
What
,
said
the
Marquess
,
my
old
friend
Claret
?
nay
,
give
it
me
in
spight
of
all
Physicians
and
their
books
,
it
never
shall
be
said
,
that
I
forsook
my
friend
for
my
enemy
.
11.
The
Marquess
discoursing
of
the
small
profit
generally
got
by
disputation
in
matters
of
Religion
,
said
,
That
men
are
often
in
arguing
,
carried
by
the
force
of
words
f●…rther
asunder
than
their
question
was
at
first
,
like
two
ships
going
out
of
the
same
haven
,
their
journeys
end
is
many
times
whole
Countries
distant
.
12.
Drunkenness
is
a
beastly
vice
,
and
hath
this
property
,
that
it
is
one
of
those
vices
,
that
increaseth
with
age
:
which
Discourse
the
Marquess
prosecuted
by
a
certain
story
of
a
certain
Philosopher
,
that
having
a
drunken
man
brought
before
him
,
to
know
what
suitable
punishment
he
should
suffer
for
the
offence
,
the
vice
was
so
rarely
known
in
those
dayes
,
that
the
Philosopher
was
wholly
ignorant
of
it
,
and
therefore
caused
him
to
be
brought
before
him
the
day
following
,
in
the
interim
of
which
time
,
the
Philosopher
drank
himself
drunk
,
and
thereby
was
so
sick
,
that
he
judged
nothing
but
death
would
immediately
ensue
,
but
it
being
once
over
,
and
the
man
appearing
the
next
day
to
know
his
doom
,
he
said
,
I
adjudge
thee
to
no
other
punishment
,
than
to
bedrunk
again
,
for
certainly
that
crimecarries
its
punishment
along
with
it
.
13.
The
Earl
of
Worcester
travelling
toward
Ragland
,
at
a
certain
Inne
in
a
poor
town
,
where
he
lay
,
by
the
carelessness
of
servants
left
behind
him
1000
l.
in
gold
,
being
hid
under
a
Bench
,
and
forgot
to
be
taken
away
,
the
money
was
never
missed
until
they
came
to
their
journies
end
at
night
,
and
it
being
told
my
Lord
that
so
much
was
missing
,
and
where
they
had
left
it
,
my
Lord
made
no
other
words
of
it
but
these
,
you
talk
of
a
cheap
reckoning
,
but
I
never
paid
so
dearly
for
a
nights
Lodging
in
all
my
life
:
who
would
think
that
a
man
should
leave
so
much
money
behind
him
in
such
a
lousie
Inn
?
One
that
stood
by
told
the
Marquess
,
that
it
was
a
hundred
to
one
if
ever
he
heard
of
his
money
again
,
it
was
such
a
beggarly
house
,
O
peace
,
said
the
Marquess
,
if
they
will
not
be
known
of
the
money
,
you
shall
see
it
will
be
a
brave
Inn
in
a
short
time
:
this
mony
was
sent
after
,
and
very
honestly
restored
,
and
delivered
into
the
Messengers
hands
that
came
for
it
.
Being
brought
unto
the
Marquess
,
there
was
much
wondring
at
the
honesty
of
the
woman
of
the
house
,
others
praised
the
whole
town
seeing
it
was
generally
known
.
The
Marquess
told
them
,
It
may
be
the
town
never
saw
so
much
mony
before
,
and
therefore
they
knew
not
what
to
make
of
it
.
14.
The
Marquess
journeying
on
his
way
to
Ragland
,
happened
to
come
to
a
place
that
was
called
Strata
del
storida
,
in
Cardiganshire
,
which
made
him
say
that
he
was
brought
to
the
West
Indies
already
,
an
old
ruined
,
but
sometimes
a
most
famous
Monastery
,
with
whose
ruines
was
built
a
pretty
tolerable
Welsh
Gentlemans
house
,
where
my
Lord
lodged
that
night
,
in
which
house
there
was
shown
an
old
old
woman
,
who
was
credibly
reported
to
have
been
living
,
and
of
years
able
to
remember
when
the
Monastery
was
in
its
flourishing
condition
,
and
to
have
been
at
Mass
oftentimes
when
the
place
was
inhabited
by
Monks
and
Friars
:
this
strange
relation
was
no
sooner
carried
up
,
and
presented
to
my
Lords
ears
,
but
my
Lord
was
as
greedy
to
glut
his
eys
with
such
an
object
,
as
they
to
fil
his
ears
with
the
relation
:
the
woman
being
sent
for
came
,
coming
,
the
Marquess
questioned
her
concerning
the
manner
of
the
Monks
behaviour
,
both
in
their
Service
,
their
Orders
,
Habits
,
Customs
,
and
all
other
particulars
,
who
gave
his
Lordship
so
exact
an
account
,
that
he
believed
it
to
be
true
,
and
confessed
that
it
must
needs
be
so
;
and
questioning
of
her
further
,
about
her
age
,
she
said
she
was
an
hundred
years
of
age
:
then
the
Marquess
asked
her
,
And
what
when
the
Religion
altered
,
you
altered
with
the
Religion
?
she
answered
,
no
in
truth
Master
,
I
staid
to
see
whether
or
no
the
people
of
the
new
religion
would
be
better
than
the
people
of
the
old
,
and
I
could
see
nothing
,
but
grew
worse
and
worse
,
&
charity
to
wax
colder
&
colder
,
&
so
kept
me
to
my
old
religion
,
I
thank
God
,
and
by
the
grace
of
God
mean
to
live
and
die
in
it
.
The
Marquess
turned
to
the
Gentleman
of
the
house
,
who
was
a
Protestant
,
and
asked
him
whether
or
no
,
she
had
been
noted
for
a
Papist
all
her
life
,
the
Gentleman
said
,
that
she
had
,
&
could
never
be
brought
from
it
;
and
that
she
would
oftentimes
steal
into
the
Church
alone
with
her
beads
,
and
there
she
would
be
praying
by
her self
;
the
Marquess
dismissed
her
for
the
present
,
but
after
Suppen
sent
for
her
again
,
and
had
some
more
private
conference
with
her
;
amongst
other
things
he
asked
her
how
she
did
to
serve
God
,
and
when
she
had
seen
a
Priest
last
,
when
she
had
been
at
Mass
,
or
received
the
Sacrament
:
the
woman
answered
,
that
she
had
not
seen
a
Priest
not
in
sixty
years
,
but
she
did
her
office
daily
,
and
never
missed
,
and
once
a
year
upon
Goodfriday
she
received
the
Sacrament
at
the
Parsons
hands
,
praying
unto
God
,
that
seeing
she
could
not
attain
unto
the
means
,
that
God
would
make
the
Parson
a
Priest
to
her
at
that
day
,
which
she
believing
God
Almighties
judgment
to
be
such
,
as
that
he
did
hear
her
prayers
.
The
Marquess
fell
into
such
a
fit
of
Laughter
,
and
then
into
such
expressions
of
admiration
,
that
it
was
rare
to
see
him
transported
into
such
extreams
,
so
at
last
he
ended
in
pity
and
commiseration
,
which
wrought
in
the
Marquess
this
effect
,
and
to
the
poor
woman
this
intended
advantage
;
the
Marquess
gave
her
ten
pieces
of
old
Gold
,
telling
her
,
that
if
she
would
go
with
him
to
Ragland
,
and
spend
the
remainder
of
her
dayes
with
him
she
should
be
welcom
,
and
there
enjoy
the
means
of
bringing
her
thither
,
where
now
she
had
but
a
little
way
to
go
,
meaning
heaven
.
The
woman
fell
a
crying
,
saying
over
and
over
again
constantly
,
God
hath
sent
him
,
God
hath
sent
him
,
he
was
a
good
man
,
and
so
she
departed
,
resolving
to
go
as
soon
as
possible
toward
Ragland
.
The
next
news
that
was
heard
in
the
morning
was
,
that
the
poor
woman
was
dead
,
whereupon
the
Marquess
excessively
grieved
,
and
wept
,
all
concluding
that
she
died
of
an
excessive
joy
,
whereat
the
Marquess
said
thus
,
If
this
poor
soul
died
for
joy
that
she
should
come
into
a
place
where
she
might
serve
God
,
bo●…
joyfully
will
she
serve
him
when
she
comes
into
a
place
where
she
shall
never
dye
?
15.
The
Marquess
discoursing
once
of
the
Essence
of
God
,
excellently
commended
the
wisdom
of
Simonides
,
who
being
asked
of
Hiero
,
what
he
thought
of
God
,
asked
a
seven-nights
time
to
consider
of
it
,
and
at
the
seven-nights
end
he
asked
a
fourtnights
time
,
at
the
fourtnights
end
he
asked
a
moneth
,
at
which
Hiero
marvelling
,
Simonides
answered
,
That
the
longer
he
thought
on
it
,
the
more
difficult
he
found
it
.
16.
The
Earl
of
Glamorgan
,
the
Marquess
of
Worcesters
eldest
son
,
accompanied
with
divers
of
high
rank
and
quality
,
as
they
were
on
their
journey
for
Ireland
,
quartered
in
the
town
of
Carnarvan
,
a
Sea
Town
in
North
Wales
,
where
they
were
entertained
with
Discourse
at
the
Table
,
by
some
of
the
Country
Gentlemen
,
who
informed
them
of
the
falling
of
an
old
Welsh
Prophesie
at
that
very
time
and
place
,
which
was
viz.
That
there
should
come
a
Magpy
,
and
build
her
nest
in
the
Crown
,
then
should
come
a
Jackdaw
,
and
beat
away
the
Magpy
,
and
after
that
there
should
come
a
Buzzard
,
that
should
beat
away
the
Jackdaw
,
and
then
there
should
be
seen
no
Crown
,
but
that
of
thorns
upon
the
Kings
head
,
at
last
there
should
come
a
Band
of
men
from
a
far
Countrey
,
&
take
away
the
thorns
,
and
then
the
Crown
should
appear
again
:
this
they
said
,
was
thus
hitherto
accomplished
,
viz.
Over
the
gate
of
Carnarvan
Castle
,
there
was
the
picture
of
King
Edward
the
first
,
in
full
proportion
,
with
a
Crown
upon
his
head
,
there
did
come
a
Magpy
,
and
did
build
her
nest
in
the
said
Kings
Crown
,
and
a
Jackdaw
did
beat
away
the
Magpy
,
and
the
Buzzard
the
Jackdaw
:
this
we
assure
your
Honour
to
be
true
;
for
all
our
Townsmen
have
observed
it
.
Dinner
being
ended
,
they
all
went
unto
the
Castle
gate
,
being
greedy
to
satisfie
their
eyes
with
the
sight
,
as
well
as
their
ears
with
the
Relation
;
where
being
come
they
beheld
the
sight
,
the
nest
being
disordered
by
the
fighting
of
the
combatants
,
and
the
materials
of
the
nest
made
such
a
mournful
aspect
,
as
if
they
had
bin
artificially
pleated
upon
the
Kings
head
.
The
Earl
of
Clamorgan
could
not
endure
the
sight
,
but
straightway
commanded
the
nest
to
be
pulled
down
,
the
materials
of
which
was
such
,
as
never
any
bird
builded
her
nest
with
,
viz.
White
thorn
:
the
story
being
related
to
the
Marquess
of
Worcester
,
after
some
pause
he
said
,
that
is
the
nick-name
,
which
the
Round-heads
use
to
give
to
the
Bishops
:
and
none
about
him
guessing
at
his
meaning
,
he
said
,
as
I
take
it
,
they
used
to
call
the
Bishops
Magpies
,
whom
they
reproach
for
building
their
nests
in
the
Crown
,
then
came
the
Presbyterian
Jackdaws
,
and
beat
them
out
,
and
the
next
thing
that
you
shall
see
,
will
be
the
Independant
,
Buzzards
,
which
drive
them
away
,
and
who
comes
next
God
knows
:
but
asking
further
,
whether
it
was
an
open
or
an
Imperial
Crown
,
answer
being
made
that
it
was
open
,
O
then
,
said
the
Marquess
,
that
was
the
reason
the
Kings
Crown
was
too
open
,
had
it
been
close
at
top
with
the
Cross
over
head
,
such
unlucky
birds
could
never
have
come
there
to
have
built
their
nests
.

Antisthenes
being
asked
of
one
,
what
Learning
was
most
necessary
for
mans
life
,
answered
,
To
unlearn
that
which
is
naught

The
Marquess
would
often
say
,
that
all
the
inconveniences
that
the
frailty
of
humane
nature
was
incident
to
fall
into

ever

this
merry
passage

the

that
were

in

one
pair
of

no
sooner
united
two
hearts
in
one
,
and
had
seated
themselves
by
one
of
the
many
properties
belonging
unto
the
honourable
state
of
matrimony
,
viz.
the
board
,

to

his

fixes
upon
being
enabled
sufficiently
thereby
to
follow
any
humour
,
as
a
fit
subject
to
make
their
Ladiships
some
sport
,
which
happened
to
be
so
suitable
to
the
occasion
,
and
so
well
performed
,
that
it
soon
captivated
the
ears
also
of
all
the
Masculine
Nobility

thus
incountring
the
fair

Madam

you
have
the
prettiest
piece
of
necessity
yonder
at
the
side

,
that
I
know
not
how
any
man
can
be
without
her
,
that
may
have
her
for
asking
,
Madam
,
will
you
give
her
me
?
I
protest
I
will
marry
her
,
&
fancy
my self
to
be
a
Lord
,
&
her self
a

,
which
shall

the
Marquess
,
such
men
as
you
and
I
,
whose
joints
are
enfeebled
with
the
strokes
of
many
years
,
must
not
think
to
win
young
maids
,
by
promising
to
make

will
you
make

shall
lie
upon

Why
then
it
shall
be
a

said
the

.
With

me
your

Deputy
,
I
will
have
her
,
if
there
be
no
more

evils
in

and
presently
makes
his
addresses
to
the
pretty
little
Gentlewoman
of
the
said
Table
,
who
had
heard
all
the
Discourse
,
and
was
perswaded
then
upon
his
approach
to
answer
his
humour
with
a
condescention
at
the
first
word
,
and
informed
,
that
he
was
an
old
rich
whoreson

accosting
her
after
this
manner

This
pretty
moppet

now
thy
Lady
hath
given
her
consent
that
I
shall
have
thee
,
if
thou
sayest
so
too

we
will
be
in

as
soon
as

With

Up
he
goes
again
to
the
Lady
,
and
tells
her
that
they
were
agreed

My
Lady
drank
to
him
upon
the

condition
,

&
wished
thewine
might
be
his
poison
if
he
did
not

her
after
dinner
;
the
Lady
willing
to
prefer
her
woman
to
such
a
fortune

him
to
his

not
from
any
part
of
his
promise
,
only
the
time
excepted
,
and
that
in
regard
he
meant
to
buy
himself
some
wedding
cloaths
.
The
Marquess
willing
to
remove
that
obstacle
,
told
him
that
he
thought
his
cloaths
would
fit
him
,
and
bid
him
go
into
his
wardrobe
,
and
take
what
he
had
a
mind
to

me
your
key

Thom

unto

I

said
my

I

not

make
us

we

his
Scene
of
mirth
in
the
Hall

which
proved
to
be
a
thing
of
that
convenience

as
if
it
had
been
an
act
of
some
set
policy
to
keep
the
crowd
out
of
the
Parlour
,
that
the
Marquess
might
have
room
enough
to
dance
in
.
At

when

and
time

the

the
dance
out
of

saluted
the
old

his
Lady

leading
them
into
a
Parlour

to
a
Table
which
was
furnished

the

of

asked
the
Lady
,
his
daughter
,
if
she
had
an
hundred
pounds
about
her
,
she
answered
,
No
my
Lord
,
but
I
can
send
for
as
much
,
I
pray
do
said
the
Marquess
,
but
it
must
be
all
in
gold
.
She
sent
for
it
,
and
presented
it
to
her
father
,
who
pulled
out
another
purse
of
an
hundred
pieces
,
and
put
the
two
hundred
pieces
into
a
basin

saying
,
Madam

if

tell
you
in

so
transported
the

man

that
he
protested

that
now

he
would
marry
all
the
waiting
Gentlewomen

one

you
have
left
,
out
one
thing
that
you
should
have

at
this
rate
,
not
to
be
too
tediòus

The

what
with

,
and
what
with
that
,
which
was
as
free
to
every
man
as
were
their
purses
unto
him
(
which
was
good
wine
)
was
not
himself
,
when
he
should
have
gone
tobed
to
another
,
which
being
related
to
my
Lord
,
his
Lordship
took
an
occasion
to
tell
the
company
the
story
of
the
beggar
,
who
was
made
believe
he
did
but
dream
of
the
happiness
that
was
really
acted
;
&
thereupon
the
Marquess
was
desirous
to
make
experiment
,
whether
it
could
be
related
in
the
person
of
old
Thomas
,
in
order
whereunto
he
gave
command
,
that
my
friend
Thomas
should
be
disrobed
of
his
new
wedding
garment
,
the
rest
of
his
fine
cloaths
taken
from
him
,
and
himself
carried
unto
his
old
Lodging
in
the
Porters
Lodge
,
and
his
wife
to
respite
the
Solemnization
of
the
marriage-bed
until
his
comportment
should
deserve
so
fair
an
admission
:
which
was
done
accordingly
,
the
next
morning
made
the
experiment
to
answer
the
height
of
all
their
expectations
;
for
news
was
brought
unto
the
Marquess
,
all
the
rest
of
the
Lords
and
Ladies

that

for
a
dream

at

seemed
to
do
so
,
to
humour
the
fancy
I
should
be
endless
,
if
I
should
relate
unto
you
the
sport
that
this
fellow
made
.
To
conclude
,
the
Marquess
called
them
both
before
him
,
and
delivered
unto
them
the
money
,
with
many
good
exhortations
to
them
both

upon
the
premises

walking
one
day
with
his
Lordship
in
a
private
walk
,
that
was
about
the
round
Tower
,
and
there
esping
where
a
bird
had
made
her
nest
,
whom
they
disturbed
from
hatching
her
young
ones
,
and
sitting
upon
her
eggs
,
which
act
of
nature
my
Lord
compared
unto
the
manner
of
the
Creation
;
for
said
he
,
God
having
made
his
nest
in
the
world
,
and
brought
forth
his
young
at
first
imperfected
,
did
by
his
spirit
breath
,
and
by
his
wings
of
providence
spread
over
them
,
he
gave
them
life
and
power
,
and
by
his
word
he
brake
the
shell

and
so
the
world
was
gloriously
peopled

it
is
said
,
Examine
your selves

come

will
not
communicate
,
till
they
be
as
they
think
perfect
,
forgetting
,
that
Christ
came
into
the
world
,
not
for
the
healthful
,
but
sick
,
and
that
we
come
unto
that
Table
to
be
refreshed
with
that
spiritual
food
,
bringing
nothing
with
us
,
but
a
purpose
to
amend
.

a
Discourse
of
the
several
windings

turnings
that
have
been
in
the
compass
of
twelve
years
:
he
thus
delivered
himself
,
that
every
age
breeds
some
exorbitant
spirits
,
who
turn
the
edge
of
their
own
sufficiency
upon
whatsoever
they
can
devour
in
their
own
ambitious
apprehensions
,
seeking
rather
a
name
,
than
a
good
fame
,
and
holding
it
the
chiefest
honour
to
be
thought
the
wonder
of
the
times
,
which
if
they
attain
unto
,
is
but
in
the
condition

that
are
generally
much
admired

more
abhorred

During
the
Siege
of
Ragland
,
there
came
a
musquet
bullet
in
at
the
window
of
the
withdrawing
room
,
where
my
Lord
was
used
to
entertain
his
friends
with
his
pleasant
Discourses
after
Dinners
and
Suppers
,
which
glancing
upon
a
little
marble
pillar
of
the
window
,
and
from
thence
hit
the
Marquess
upon
the
side
of
the
head
,
and
fell
down
flatted
upon
the
Table
,
which
breaking
the
pillar
in
pieces
,
it
made
such
a
noise
in
the
room
,
that
the
Countess
of
Glamorgan
who
stood
in
the
same
window
,
ran
away
,
as
if
the
house
had
been
falling
down
upon
her
head
,
crying
out
,
O
Lord
,
O
Lord
;
but
finding
her self
more
afraid
than
hurt
,
she
returned
back
again
,
no
less
excusing
her self
,
as
she
was
pleased
to
call
it
rudeness
to
her
father
,
than
acknowledging
her
fears
to
all
the
company
:
to
whom
the
Marquess
said
,
Daughter
,
you
had
reason
to
run
away
,
when
your
father
was
knockt
on
the
head
,
and
pausing
some
while
,
and
turning
the
flatted
bullet
round
with
his
finger
,
he
further
said
,
Gentlemen
,
Those
who
had
a
mind
to
flatter
me
,
were
wont
to
tell
me
,
that
I
had
a
good
head-piece
in
my
younger
dayes
,
but
if
I
do
not
flatter
my self
,
I
think
I
have
a
good
head-piece
in
my
old
age
,
or
else
it
would
not
have
been
Musquet
proof
.
25.
One
was
telling
the
Marquess
how
strangely
Doctor
Baily
his
Chaplain
escaped
a
shot
,
by
the
bar
of
a
Window
,
looking
out
into
the
Leaguer
,
as
thus
,
Standing
in
a
window
of
the
Castle
,
there
came
a
musquet
bullet
,
&
hit
falling
against
the
edge
of
an
iron
bar
of
a
Chamber
Window
,
so
that
it
parted
the
bullet
in
two
,
the
bar
exspatiating
it self
by
degrees
towards
the
middle
,
one
half
of
the
bullet
flew
on
the
one
side
,
&
the
other
half
on
the
other
side
,
so
that
by
Gods
providence
no
harm
was
done
.
The
Marquess
hearing
this
,
asked
in
whose
chamber
it
was
,
his
Chaplain
told
him
,
his
Lordship
said
,
that
the
Window
of
that
chamber
was
cross-barrrd
,
and
you
will
never
believe
me
how
safe
it
is
to
stand
before
the
Cross
when
you
face
your
enemy
.
26.
The
Marquess
on
a
Discourse
of
images
related
this
story
of
a
Papist
,
being
opposed
by
a
Protestant
,
that
they
had
no
Scripture
for
images
,
answered
,
yes
,
for
you
read
,
that
the
people
laid
their
sick
in
the
streets
,
that
the
shadow
of
Saint
Peter
might
come
upon
them
,
and
that
a
shadow
was
an
image
,
and
the
obscurest
of
images
.
27.
Talking
upon
occasion
of
Christs
miracles
,
viz.
of
his
turning
water
into
wine
,
and
of
the
five
loaves
and
two
fishes
,
Why
said
the
Marquess
,
these
Miracles
he
works
amongst
us
every
day
,
but
that
they
are
so
ordinary
unto
us
,
that
we
take
no
notice
of
them
,
God
sends
rain
upon
the
earth
,
this
water
gets
up
into
the
vine
,
and
the
sap
of
the
vine
tree
God
turneth
into
wine
,
and
as
few
grains
of
corn
as
will
make
five
loaves
,
being
sowed
in
the
earth
,
will
multiply
&
increase
to
such
advantage
as
will
feed
5000
with
bread
,
and
two
fishes
will
bring
forth
so
many
fishes
as
will
suffice
so
many
mouths
.

There
was
an
old
rich
usurer
and
for●…icator
,
who
had
a
plot
upon
the
body
and
estate
of
a
handsom
young
widow
,
and
an
inheritrix
of
an
estate
,
which
the
old
Miser
thought
rather
convenient
than
great
enough
for
him
;
wherefore
having
a
mind
rather
to
enjoy
than
have
her
,
and
knowing
that
she
was
in
Debt
,
courted
her
with
offering
to
leave
her
monies
,
as
an
argument
of
his
affection
,
which
she
accepted
of
,
offering
to
bindher
estate
for
repaymen●…
hoping
that
the
tye
of
his
person
would
be
a
freedom
of
her
estate
:
thus
with
his
money
,
he
got
his
foot
into
hereestate
,
and
by
a
false
promise
slept
into
her
bed
,
as
often
as
he
had
a
mind
to
lye
doubly
.
Six
years
he
staved
her
off
,
who
bed-staved
him
in
,
within
her
own
sleeping
room
,
but
at
last
,
that
she
might
be
sure
of
the
substance
,
she
urged
him
to
the
Ceremony
,
and
that
so
much
,
that
at
last
he
gave
her
a
flat
denial
,
wherupon
she
flatly
denies
him
the
former
familiarity
,
he
seizes
upon
her
estate
and
answers
,
the
kindness
of
he●…
admittance
of
him
into
her
own
bed
,
with
the
Discourse
of
turning
her
out
of
her
own
doors
:
She
makes
the
Marquess
her
friend
,
declaring
unto
him
how
much
she
had
been
abused
by
him
,
and
withal
that
she
was
willing
to
pay
him
his
money
,
but
not
the
use
of
it
,
as
he
required
:
The
Marquess
sends
for
this
whoreson
,
and
offered
himself
a
mediatour
,
the
man
was
unwilling
to
that
,
yet
knew
not
well
how
to
deny
him
:
which
the
Marquessperceiving
,
called
him
aside
,
and
bid
him
get
her
to
be
bound
with
him
in
a
bond
of
five
hundred
pounds
,
to
stand
to
such
an
award
as
he
should
make
between
them
,
promising
him
faithfully
,
that
he
would
award-him
use
upon
use
.
O
my
Lord
,
said
he
,
if
you
do
so
,
I
shall
be
much
obliged
to
your
Honour
,
and
will
be
bound
with
all
my
heart
,
and
will
send
you
a
couple
of
the
bravest
colts
of
your
Lordships
own
breed
,
as
any
is
in
the
Countrey
.
Well
,
well
,
said
the
Marquess
,
let
it
be
so
.
Then
all
was
done
accordingly
,
and
when
the
business
was
examined
,
&
found
to
be
as
was
before
related
,
the
Marquess
made
this
award
,
viz.
Sir
said
he
,
to
the
man
,
she
hath
had
the
use
of
your
money
so
long
,
and
you
have
had
the
use
of
her
body
so
long
,
and
there
is
use
upon
use
;
so
I
have
allowed
you
what
I
promised
.
28.
The
Marquess
on
a
Discourse
of
Temptation
thus
delivered
himself
,
that
we
pray
in
vain
to
God
to
save
us
from
temptation
,
if
at
every
occasion
we
run
into
it
:
Like
one
who
voluntarily
sticks
in
the
dirt
,
and
cries
for
help
from
those
that
pass
by
.

Thales
said
,
that
life
and
death
was
all
one
:
one
that
was
present
asked
him
,
Why
do
not
you
dye
then
?
Thales
said
again
,
because
they
are
all
one
.
And
being
further
asked
,
how
a
man
should
order
his
life
,
answered
,
as
if
a
man
should
live
long
,
or
die
quickly
.
30.
There
was
a
great
man
in
the
Kings
Army
,
between
whom
and
the
house
of
Ragland
there
was
at
this
time
animosity
,
the
Marquess
of
Worcester
had
heard
,
how
that
this
party
should
cast
a
dubious
saying
,
as
the
case
then
stood
,
viz.
that
he
intended
to
take
Ragland
in
his
way
,
and
was
so
far
good
as
his
word
,
as
that
he
marched
into
the
Park
,
&
there
drew
up
his
men
,
and
faced
the
Castle
,
whereupon
the
Line
was
man'd
,
and
Command
was
given
,
that
none
should
be
suffred
to
come
near
the
Line
,
which
Command
was
so
observed
,
that
some
of
the
Officers
of
the
Army
approaching
within
the
place
prohibited
,
the
Centinel
bid
stand
,
they
did
not
,
the
Centinel
called
to
them
again
to
stand
,
they
refused
,
the
Lieutenant
called
upon
the
Centinel
to
fire
,
the
Centinel
preferring
the
knowledge
of
his
friends
before
his
duty
to
his
Officer
,
did
not
give
fire
,
but
swore
he
would
give
fire
if
they
would
not
stand
,
whereupon
one
of
them
told
him
,
that
it
was
such
a
General
,
and
wondred
that
the
Officer
would
bid
the
Souldier
give
fire
upon
him
,
the
General
forthwith
coming
to
the
drawbridge
,
and
desired
to
speak
with
the
Lord
Charls
,
whom
he
no
sooner
faluted
,
but
required
satisfaction
for
the
affront
,
he
was
desired
to
come
into
the
Castle
,
and
told
that
the
matter
should
be
examined
before
him
,
and
if
any
affront
was
given
,
he
should
receive
satisfaction
:
whereupon
being
come
within
the
Castle
,
the
Lieutenant
was
sent
for
,
who
told
the
General
,
that
though
he
knew
him
to
be
a
General
,
yet
as
a
Souldier
he
was
not
to
take
any
notice
of
him
,
until
such
time
as
he
had
declared
himself
,
which
when
he
did
,
he
respected
him
accordingly
:
&
further
said
that
rewards
he
had
seen
given
on
the
like
occasion
,
but
never
knew
it
a
fault
before
:
all
this
would
not
serve
,
but
the
General
said
he
was
affronted
,
and
must
have
satisfaction
,
and
so
took
his
leave
.
The
Marquess
of
Worcester
sleeping
upon
his
bed
all
this
while
,
and
not
dreaming
of
any
of
all
this
that
had
hapned
in
the
interim
,
hearing
the
whole
Relation
,
he
askt
all
the
Officers
,
whether
the
Lieutenant
had
offended
,
they
unanimously
answered
no
,
and
commended
him
for
what
he
had
done
;
then
said
the
Marquess
,
this
is
but
a
pretence
,
they
have
a
mind
to
quarrel
with
us
;
therefore
I
will
send
him
to
the
General
,
and
a
Guard
with
him
of
such
Souldiers
as
are
able
to
witness
the
truth
of
it
,
and
let
him
try
him
at
his
Councel
of
War
,
and
see
what
Law
he
hath
for
it
,
and
so
we
shall
break
the
neck
of
the
quarrel
,
and
so
said
the
Lieutenant
I
shall
be
hanged
by
the
neck
for
my
labour
.
Whereat
the
Marquess
replyed
,
What
friends
hast
thou
in
the
Garison
?
The
Lieutenant
made
answer
,
I
have
a
wife
and
a
daughter
:
then
said
the
Marquess
with
some
vehemence
,
I
protest
unto
thee
,
if
they
hang
thee
,
I
will
marry
thy
wife
,
and
provide
for
thy
daughter
.
The
Lieutenant
replyed
,
I
had
rather
you
would
marry
my
daughter
,
and
provide
for
me
;
I
protest
said
the
Marquess
,
I
will
marry
thy
daughter
,
and
I
will
provide
for
thee
an
honourable
grave
,
but
you
shall
be
hanged
first
.
My
Lord
,
said
the
Lieutenant
,
shall
I
bespeak
my
grave
?
thou
shalt
said
the
Marquess
;
then
said
the
Lieutenant
,
I
will
be
laid
in
the
vault
in
Ragland
Church
,
betwixt
your
father
,
and
your
Grandfather
,
and
I
pray
God
I
may
be
hanged
before
I
see
you
again
;
and
so
flung
out
of
the
room
,
leaving
my
Lord
in
a
most
merry
vein
,
as
possibly
could
be
,
who
remembring
himself
sent
him
five
pieces
to
bear
his
charges
.
The
Lieutenant
being
brought
to
the
General
at
Monmouth
,
the
General
dismissed
him
of
his
Guard
,
and
sent
him
to
Hereford
with
an
oath
at
his
heels
,
that
he
would
hang
him
,
if
there
were
no
more
men
in
England
;
then
the
Lieutenant
cryed
out
,
This
makes
for
us
,
I
do
but
think
how
finely
I
shall
lie
between
the
two
old
Earls
,
and
how
finely
the
old
Earl
will
lie
between
my
daughters
two
young
legs
:
the
particulars
whereof
being
brought
to
the
Marquess
,
the
Marquess
was
not
a
little
perplext
between
fear
of
having
his
new
Mistris
,
&
losing
his
old
friend
,
which
he
had
run
himself
into
between
jest
and
earnest
,
but
the
greatest
sport
of
all
was
,
concerning
the
hopeful
Lady
Marquess
,
who
was
ever
and
anon
enquiring
and
asking
many
questions
concerning
the
Marquess
,
whom
she
never
saw
,
what
manner
of
man
he
was
,
how
old
,
whether
he
went
with
a
staff
,
or
no
?
What
was
the
reason
he
kept
his
chamber
so
much
,
and
did
not
come
abroad
?
Sometimes
,
what
diseases
he
had
?
and
how
long
it
was
ago
since
his
Lady
died
?
with
many
other
necessary
questions
to
be
asked
by
a
woman
in
her
condition
:
nevertheless
,
it
stood
the
Marquess
upon
to
be
sollicitous
in
the
business
,
being
so
prest
between
two
strong
Passions
,
Love
and
Pity
,
and
so
he
sends
immediately
to
Hereford
,
where
making
some
sport
of
the
business
there
,
the
Lieutenant
at
last
was
brought
home
to
his
Wife
and
Daughter
,
who
ever
after
was
called
,
my
Lady
Marquess
.
32.
Discoursing
before
the
Marquess
concerning
the
error
of
the
Manichees
,
who
held
there
were
two
causes
of
Heaven
and
earth
,
viz.
that
the
good
and
white
God
made
the
heaven
,
and
man
from
the
middle
upward
,
and
the
black
and
evil
God
was
the
efficient
cause
of
the
earth
,
and
of
man
from
the
middle
downwards
,
that
was
but
a
foolish
conceit
said
the
Marquesse
,
for
Gods
power
and
wisdom
is
shown
and
seen
,
as
well
in
an
Ant
as
in
an
Elephant
,
as
well
in
a
worm
as
in
an
Angel
,
so
his
Godhead
and
might
appears
as
well
in
the
earth
,
as
in
the
heavens
,
but
methinks
it
had
been
a
pretty
fancy
,
and
not
far
from
truth
or
reason
,
if
they
had
held
that
Heaven
and
Earth
had
been
as
man
and
Wife
,
or
male
and
female
,
seeing
the
Heavens
were
made
as
the
male
part
of
the
world
,
by
whose
influence
,
motion
and
dews
,
the
earth
as
the
female
part
thereof
out
of
her
womb
brings
forth
all
necessary
and
living
creatures
.
33.
On
a
Discourse
of
Necromancy
,
the
Marquess
thus
delivered
himself
,
that
as
none
can
be
Scholars
in
a
School
,
and
not
be
subject
to
the
Master
thereof
:
So
none
can
study
and
put
in
practise
the
Circles
and
Art
of
Magick
,
without
committing
a
horrible
defection
from
God.
34.
The
Marquesse
was
of
a
disposition
alwaies
inclinable
to
charitable
constructions
,
which
suffered
him
not
to
want
excuses
,
or
fome
cloak
or
other
to
throw
over
any
mans
imperfections
.
There
was
a
Gentleman
of
high
desert
,
who
chanced
in
the
Marquess
his
hearing
to
come
under
the
lash
of
some
mens
ceasures
.
Alas
Gentlemen
,
said
the
Marquess
,
Will
you
have
corn
to
grow
without
ch●…ffe
,
or
light
to
be
without
its
adjoyning
darkness
,
or
the
sweetest
hony
without
unsavoury
wax
,
or
the
pleasant
wines
,
or
liquors
without
their
Lees
and
Dregs
?
As
soon
shall
corn
gr●…
without
chaffe
,
as
a
man
of
his
parts
shal●…
be
free
from
vain
gl●…ry
;
worthless
chaffe
keeps
the
corn
warm
,
and
vain
glory
fires
him
to
all
those
brave
atchieviments
.
If
you
set
a
man
on
his
horse
,
le
him
have
his
spurs
.
35.
It
was
ordinary
with
the
Marquess
to
entertain
Discourse
with
every
man
according
to
the
condition
and
profession
he
was
of
,
and
most
commonly
from
the
beginning
of
his
Discourse
,
you
should
never
know
what
the
end
would
be
,
taking
delight
to
deceive
the
expectation
of
his
Auditor
:
Upon
a
time
,
there
was
presented
unto
him
a
Lawyer
,
and
he
was
informed
hefore-hand
how
excellent
a
man
he
was
in
his
profession
;
the
Marquess
thought
with
himself
how
he
might
pose
him
,
and
being
brought
in
with
other
Gentlemen
,
after
they
had
dined
he
was
presented
unto
the
Marquess
.
Sir
,
said
the
Marquess
,
I
have
received
a
very
good
character
of
you
,
they
say
you
are
very
learned
in
the
Law
,
I
would
very
fain
ask
you
one
question
,
Any
thing
my
Lord
,
said
the
Lawyer
,
that
lies
within
my
poor
ability
.
I
pray
,
said
the
Marquess
,
who
was
the
first
man
that
ever
had
a
Dedimus
potestatem
granted
unto
him
?
the
Lawyer
was
so
confounded
,
that
he
knew
not
what
to
say
for
a
long
time
:
at
last
he
made
a
long
and
learned
discourse
concerning
the
original
of
that
Writ
,
and
the
Marquess
gave
him
the
hearing
,
but
when
he
had
done
,
he
told
him
,
that
hè
came
far
short
of
the
original
thereof
;
for
Adam
was
the
first
,
that
ever
had
fulness
of
power
granted
unto
him
,
viz.
when
God
gave
him
power
to
subdue
the
earth
,
and
to
have
dominion
over
every
living
creature
.
The
Lawyer
thankt
his
Lordship
,
and
told
him
,
that
he
thought
the
Law
had
not
been
so
antient
.
Antient
,
said
the
Marquess
,
there
was
the
beginning
of
all
your
Courts
of
Justice
,
but
I
see
you
are
but
a
common
Lawyer
that
cannot
derive
your
Pedigree
from
thence
.
36.
Aeneas
Silvius
said
,
to
which
the
Marquess
assents
,
That
the
Christian
faith
and
Law
,
though
it
had
not
been
confirmed
by
miracles
,
yet
was
most
worthy
to
be
received
for
the
honesty
therof
.
37.
There
was
a
new
married
couple
presented
before
the
Marquess
,
the
Bride
a
goodly
proper
woman
,
her
face
well
feitured
,
an
excellent
eye
she
had
,
but
was
pitifully
disfigured
with
the
small
Pox
:
the
Marquess
looking
much
upon
her
,
and
saying
nothing
to
her
a
long
while
,
we
all
knew
that
Silence
was
in
labour
for
some
notable
Production
,
at
last
he
advanceth
toward
the
young
Bride
,
and
asked
he
Gentlewoman
,
Do
you
know
why
it
is
said
,
that
God
Almighty
created
man
and
builded
woman
?
the
Gentlewoman
somewhat
out
of
countenance
,
answered
,
No
indeed
,
my
Lord
:
The
Marquess
asked
her
again
,
Do
you
know
why
you
women
are
called
Housewives
?
I
think
my
Lord
said
the
Bride
,
because
good
wives
should
keep
at
home
,
and
not
gad
abroad
.
It
is
a
good
answer
said
the
Marquess
,
but
not
the
right
,
for
women
may
be
bad
wives
at
home
as
well
as
abroad
.
The
answer
to
my
first
question
is
,
women
are
not
said
to
be
made
as
Adam
was
,
which
only
signifies
plain
work
,
but
to
be
built
,
which
signifies
curiosity
and
co●…trivance
,
and
therefore
as
to
my
second
question
,
a
woman
is
called
a
housewife
,
because
she
is
a
house
out
of
which
all
the
Royal
Families
of
Kings
and
Emperors
derive
their
extract
:
neither
are
you
only
compared
unto
houses
,
but
unto
Cities
,
Kingdoms
,
Churches
,
and
Common-wealths
.
But
do
you
know
what
house
you
are
like
?
No
indeed
my
Lord
,
said
the
Bride
,
why
then
I
will
tell
you
,
when
God
builded
the
first
woman
,
he
made
her
his
storehouse
wherein
he
laid
up
all
the
race
of
mankind
,
wherewith
he
replenishad
the
whole
earth
,
but
I
must
tell
you
Lady
,
God
Almighty
did
not
make
you
coaches
nor
waggons
,
that
you
should
alwaies
be
gadding
abroad
.
Whereat
the
Bridegroom
made
answer
,
My
Lord
,
I
think
you
for
this
,
I
hope
my
wife
will
remember
it
.
My
Lord
,
said
the
young
Bride
,
you
will
read
such
a
lecture
to
my
husband
,
that
he
will
never
let
me
go
abroad
:
O
Lady
said
the
Marquesse
,
he
must
not
debar
you
of
that
liberty
,
provided
,
that
you
will
never
go
abroad
,
but
when
you
go
like
the
Snail
,
who
seldom
stirs
abroad
,
but
whilst
that
blessing
the
dew
of
Heaven
is
upon
the
earth
,
that
she
may
gather
benefit
,
and
by
her
greatest
care
,
and
equal
management
,
still
carrys
here
house
upon
her
back
.
O
my
Lord
said
she
,
if
I
should
go
abroad
like
the
Snail
,
I
should
carry
a
house
upon
my
back
,
and
horns
in
my
forehead
.
No
Lady
said
the
Marquess
,
though
she
forks
at
you
,
yet
they
are
no
horns
,
the
Snail
can
soon
draw
them
in
if
you
touch
them
,
which
no
horned
creature
can
perform
,
but
she
carrys
them
in
her
head
,
to
teach
you
what
you
should
provide
&
bear
in
your
mind
against
you
go
to
hay-making
:
but
the
Marquess
fearing
that
he
had
a
little
displeased
her
,
he
thought
to
make
her
amends
by
the
following
discourse
.
Sir
,
said
he
to
the
Bridegroom
,
you
know
I
have
compared
your
wife
to
a
building
,
and
I
must
commend
your
choice
,
for
said
he
,
alluding
to
her
disfigurement
,
a
goodly
house
must
not
be
chosen
by
the
smoothness
or
whiteness
of
the
wall
,
for
such
an
one
may
be
but
a
dairy-house
,
or
a
milk-house
,
nor
according
to
the
colours
or
painting
on
the
outside
,
for
such
an
one
may
be
but
a
Tavern
or
an
Alehouse
;
but
if
I
see
a
house
that
is
lofty
and
stately
built
,
and
have
fair
windows
though
the
outside
be
but
rough
cast
,
yet
I
am
sure
there
are
goodly
rooms
within
:
and
so
both
parties
were
well
pleased
.
38.
It
was
told
the
Marquess
that
such
a
Romane
Catholick
,
being
sorely
prest
to
take
the
oath
of
Supremacy
,
and
being
acquainted
with
another
Gentleman
that
was
a
Protestant
,
and
so
like
unto
him
that
you
could
hardly
distinguish
them
whilst
they
were
together
,
much
less
asunder
,
this
his
image
,
as
if
Nature
had
chosen
him
to
be
his
Representative
,
as
the
others
part
,
the
right
stone
being
pulled
out
,
and
a
counterseit
set
in
the
right
Ring
,
and
what
with
the
likeness
of
his
countenance
and
his
apparel
,
he
passed
for
currant
,
which
jest
my
Romane
thought
so
good
,
that
he
must
needs
brag
of
it
to
the
Marquess
,
but
the
Marquess
no
way
liked
it
,
asking
him
,
Would
you
put
another
upon
that
which
you
would
not
do
your self
?
What
if
the
Devil
,
(
you
two
being
so
alike
one
another
)
should
mistake
you
for
him
,
I
assure
you
he
would
go
near
to
marre
the
conceit
.
39.
Vespasian
asked
of
Apollonius
what
was
the
cause
of
Neroes
ruine
;
who
answered
,
That
Nero
could
tune
the
harp
well
,
but
in
G●…vernment
he
did
alwayes
wind
up
the
strings
too
high
,
or
let
them
down
too
low
.
40.
T●…ere
was
a
young
and
beautiful
Lady
,
who
was
shewing
the
Marquess
,
that
the
colours
that
hung
off
such
a
Tower
,
was
one
of
the
curtains
of
her
bed
.
To
which
my
Lord
replied
,
Madam
,
I
would
you
would
set
that
little
boy
that
uses
to
stand
behind
the
curtain
,
on
the
top
of
that
Tower
,
that
we
may
see
whether
or
no
he
would
drive
away
all
those
men
with
his
bow
and
arrows
.
To
which
the
Lady
replied
.
Cupid
never
raised
a
siege
in
his
life
,
but
he
hath
taken
many
a
strong
hold
:
then
said
the
Marquess
,
I
will
tell
you
how
you
shall
make
yours
impregnable
.
How
my
Lord
,
said
the
Lady
?
the
Marquess
said
unto
her
,
whensoever
you
see
a
handsom
young
man
be
sure
you
shut
your
eyes
,
or
else
he
will
take
the
Fort
of
your
Virginity
,
flying
in
at
your
Windows
.
41.
The
Marquess
highly
commended
Queen
Elizabeth's
wisdom
and
prudence
,
thereupon
relating
this
story
,
Queen
Elizabeth
being
to
resolve
upon
a
great
Officer
,
and
being
by
some
that
canvased
for
others
,
put
in
some
doubt
of
that
person
whom
she
meant
to
advance
,
called
for
Mr.
Bacon
,
and
told
him
,
she
was
like
one
with
a
Lanthorn
,
seeking
for
a
man
,
and
seeming
unsatisfied
in
the
choice
she
had
of
men
for
that
place
.
Mr.
Bacon
answered
her
,
that
he
had
heard
,
that
in
old
time
there
was
usually
painted
on
the
Church
walls
the
day
of
Doom
,
and
God
sitting
in
Judgement
,
and
St.
Michael
by
him
with
a
pair
of
Ballances
,
and
the
Soul
,
and
the
good
deeds
in
one
Ballance
,
and
the
●…aults
and
evil
deeds
in
the
other
,
and
the
souls
Ballance
went
up
far
too
light
:
then
was
our
Lady
painted
with
a
great
pair
of
Beads
,
casting
them
into
the
light
Ballance
to
make
up
the
weight
:
So
he
said
,
place
and
authority
which
was
in
her
hands
to
give
,
was
like
our
Ladies
Be●…ds
,
which
though
men
,
through
divers
imperfections
were
too
light
before
,
yet
when
they
were
cast
in
made
weight
competent
.
42.
There
was
an
old
servant
of
my
Lords
,
who
would
needs
make
a
young
Captain
;
and
at
last
took
an
opportunity
to
shew
himself
an
arrant
coward
.
This
Captain
upon
a
time
,
was
to
command
a
party
to
go
out
to
make
a
mock
salley
,
but
as
soon
as
ever
he
came
within
sight
of
the
enemy
,
he
squatted
upon
his
belly
behind
the
refuse
of
an
old
Brick-kill
,
for
which
his
behaviour
he
was
laughed
at
sufficiently
:
after
that
he
came
into
the
Castle
,
some
there
were
who
told
this
unto
the
Marquess
,
who
being
willing
to
bring
his
old
servant
off
with
better
credit
,
than
he
had
brought
off
himself
,
told
them
,
I
thought
I
had
heard
you
say
,
that
it
was
a
mock
Salley
,
to
which
they
answered
,
that
it
was
so
,
then
said
the
Marquess
,
If
it
was
but
a
mock
salley
,
he
can
be
but
a
mock
coward
,
if
you
had
been
in
earnest
,
it
may
be
he
would
not
have
played
the
fool
in
jest
.
43.
The
Marquess
was
one
day
reading
of
us
a
Lecture
of
patience
in
our
adversity
:
amongst
the
rest
of
those
witty
sayings
,
which
came
from
him
,
he
told
us
that
there
was
nothing
so
bad
,
but
was
good
for
something
;
for
said
he
,
if
there
were
no
silence
,
there
would
be
no
Musick
;
for
the
sudden
stops
which
are
in
Musick
add
to
the
grace
and
perfection
of
the
Art.
Ignorance
is
a
spur
to
knowledge
,
darkness
a
Pavilion
to
the
Almighty
.
A
Cabbin
or
drawn
chamber
for
us
to
sleep
in
.
A
Dungeon
for
the
Judge
to
punish
his
Delinquents
,
and
a
foil
for
the
Painter
to
make
his
shadows
:
so
are
afflictions
good
for
our
instructions
,
and
adversities
for
our
amendments
.
44.
The
Marquess
had
a
new
servant
to
wait
upon
him
,
who
had
the
ill
luck
to
think
himself
wiser
than
he
was
thought
by
others
,
insomuch
that
upon
an
occasion
,
he
told
the
Marquess
,
that
he
was
not
wise
in
such
a
thing
,
and
that
if
he
were
as
the
Marquess
,
he
would
do
so
and
so
:
the
Marquess
hearing
of
him
made
him
this
gentle
reply
,
Truly
,
if
I
knew
where
to
find
a
servant
,
that
were
wiser
than
his
Master
,
I
would
give
gold
for
such
an
one
,
but
to
have
a
servant
that
thinks
himself
wiser
than
his
Master
,
for
such
an
one
I
would
not
give
a
rush
.
45.
On
a
Discourse
of
vain
glory
,
the
Marquess
related
this
story
,
That
Archidamus
King
of
Lacedemon
,
having
received
from
Philip
King
of
Macedon
proud
Letters
,
after
the
said
Philip
had
won
a
victory
over
the
Athenians
,
writ
back
to
him
,
That
if
he
measured
his
own
shadow
,
he
should
find
it
no
longer
now
,
than
it
was
before
his
victory
.
46.
When
it
was
told
the
Marquess
,
that
some
would
warrant
him
,
that
if
he
would
,
he
might
be
Duke
of
Somerset
,
he
made
them
this
reply
,
When
I
was
Earl
of
Worcester
I
was
well
to
live
,
since
I
was
a
Marquess
I
am
worse
by
one
hundred
thousand
pounds
,
and
if
I
should
be
a
Duke
,
I
should
be
an
arrant
beggar
;
wherefore
I
had
rather
if
I
might
go
back
again
to
my
Earld●…m
,
than
at
this
Rate
keep
on
my
pace
to
the
Dukedom
of
Somerset
.
47.
At
the
beginning
of
the
long
Parliament
,
there
were
certain
Rusticks
who
came
unto
Ragland
Castle
to
search
the
Castle
for
arms
,
my
Lord
being
a
Papist
:
the
Marquess
met
them
at
the
Castle
gate
,
and
desired
to
know
whether
they
came
to
take
away
his
mony
,
seeing
they
intended
to
disarm
him
;
they
answered
no
,
but
what
they
did
,
was
because
he
was
a
Recusant
,
he
said
he
was
a
Peer
of
the
Realm
,
and
no
convict
Recusant
,
and
therefore
the
Law
could
not
in
reason
take
notice
of
any
such
things
,
and
further
,
some
sharp
and
dubious
words
coming
from
the
Marquess
,
they
were
at
last
willing
to
take
his
word
,
but
the
Marquess
not
willing
to
part
with
them
on
such
easie
terms
,
having
before
resolved
to
return
them
one
fright
for
another
,
which
he
thus
effected
;
having
carried
them
up
and
down
the
Castle
,
he
at
length
brought
them
over
a
high
bridge
that
arched
over
the
Moat
,
that
was
between
the
Castle
and
the
great
Tower
,
wherein
the
Lord
Herbert
had
lately
contrived
certain
water-works
,
which
when
the
several
Engins
and
Wheels
were
to
be
set
a
going
,
much
quantity
of
water
through
the
hollow
conveyances
of
the
aquaeducts
were
to
be
let
down
from
the
top
of
the
high
Tower
,
which
upon
the
first
entrance
of
these
wonderful
Asinegoes
,
the
Marquess
had
given
order
that
these
catarrhacts
should
begin
to
fall
,
which
made
such
a
fearful
and
hideous
noise
,
by
reason
of
the
hollowness
of
the
Tower
,
and
the
neighbouring
ecchoes
of
the
Castle
,
and
the
waters
that
were
between
,
and
round
them
both
,
that
there
was
such
a
roaring
as
if
the
mouth
of
Hell
had
been
wide
open
,
and
all
the
Devils
had
been
conjured
up
,
that
the
poor
silly
men
stood
so
amaz'd
,
as
if
they
had
been
half
dead
,
and
yet
they
saw
nothing
:
At
last
as
the
plot
was
laid
,
up
comes
a
man
staring
,
&
running
,
crying
out
before
he
came
at
them
,
Lock
to
your selves
my
Masters
,
for
the
Lions
are
got
loose
:
whereupon
the
searchers
gave
us
such
a
loose
,
that
they
tumbled
so
over
one
another
down
the
stairs
,
that
it
was
thought
one
half
of
them
had
broken
their
necks
,
never
looking
behind
them
till
they
were
sure
they
had
got
out
of
sight
of
the
Castle
.
48.
There
was
a
Colonel
,
who
came
unto
the
Marquess
after
the
Castle
was
delivered
,
whom
the
Marquess
very
well
received
until
such
time
,
as
the
Colonel
desired
reparation
of
certain
losses
which
he
had
sustained
by
his
son
Clamorgan
,
the
Marquess
prayed
him
not
to
call
him
to
an
account
for
other
folks
,
for
he
had
enough
to
do
to
answer
for
himself
:
whereupon
the
Colonel
clapt
his
hat
upon
his
head
,
and
sate
himself
down
in
a
chair
of
State
,
which
was
upon
my
Lords
right
hand
,
which
the
Marquess
observing
,
gently
said
unto
one
of
his
servants
,
I
pray
reach
him
the
footstool
.
49.
After
much
conference
betwixt
the
Marquess
,
and
General
Fairfax
,
wherein
many
things
were
requested
of
the
General
by
the
Marquess
,
and
being
as
he
thought
himself
happy
in
the
attainment
,
his
Lordship
was
pleased
to
make
a
merry
Petition
to
the
General
as
he
was
taking
his
leave
,
viz.
in
the
behalf
of
a
couple
of
pigeons
,
which
were
wont
to
come
to
his
hand
,
and
feed
out
of
it
constantly
,
in
whose
behalf
he
desired
the
General
that
he
would
be
pleased
to
give
him
his
Protection
for
them
,
fearing
the
little
command
that
he
should
have
over
his
Soldiers
in
that
behalf
.
To
which
the
General
said
,
I
am
glad
to
see
your
Lordship
so
merry
.
Oh
said
the
Marquess
,
you
have
given
me
no
other
cause
,
and
as
hasty
as
you
are
,
you
shall
not
go
until
I
have
told
you
a
story
.
There
were
two
men
going
up
Holborn
in
a
Cart
to
be
hanged
,
one
of
them
being
very
merry
and
jocond
,
gave
offence
unto
the
other
,
who
was
as
sad
and
dejected
,
insomuch
as
that
the
downcast
man
said
unto
the
other
,
I
wonder
brother
that
you
can
be
so
frolick
,
considering
the
business
that
we
are
going
about
.
Tush
,
answered
the
other
,
thou
art
a
fool
,
thou
wentest
a
thieving
,
and
never
thought
what
would
become
of
thee
,
wherefore
being
on
a
sudden
surprized
thou
fallest
into
such
a
shaking
fit
,
that
I
am
ashamed
to
see
thee
in
that
condition
,
whereas
I
was
resolved
to
be
hanged
before
ever
I
fell
to
stealing
;
which
is
the
reason
,
nothing
happening
strange
,
or
unexpected
,
I
go
so
composed
unto
my
death
:
so
said
the
Marquess
,
I
resolved
to
undergo
whatsoever
,
even
the
worst
of
evils
that
you
were
able
to
lay
upon
me
,
before
ever
I
took
up
arms
for
my
Soveraign
,
and
therefore
wonder
not
that
I
am
so
merry
.
50.
There
was
a
Romane
Catholick
,
who
had
been
converted
unto
the
Protestant
Religion
,
and
giving
the
Marquess
of
Worcester
a
visit
,
the
Marquess
questioned
him
very
seriously
concerning
his
revolt
,
and
the
ground
of
his
disertion
;
the
Convert
told
him
,
that
the
ground
of
his
departure
from
the
Church
of
Rome
,
was
because
she
had
departed
from
her self
.
You
say
very
well
said
the
Marques
,
but
how
do
you
prove
that
?
to
which
demand
the
convert
made
this
reply
,
viz.
the
Scriptures
tell
me
so
:
whereupon
the
Marquess
called
for
a
Bible
,
giving
command
it
should
be
a
Bible
cum
privilegio
Regis
,
which
being
brought
unto
him
,
he
said
unto
the
Gentleman
,
I
will
see
whether
it
wil
tell
me
any
such
thing
,
and
holding
it
in
his
hands
a
pretty
while
,
at
last
he
opened
the
Bible
,
and
held
it
open
as
long
,
then
he
protested
unto
the
afresaid
Gentleman
,
that
the
Bible
told
him
no
such
matter
,
and
that
he
believed
it
to
be
so
ful
of
truth
,
&
sincerity
,
and
that
it
respected
the
salvation
of
mens
souls
so
much
,
that
if
there
were
any
such
thing
,
it
would
in
charity
(
with
which
it
was
so
fully
fraught
)
do
no
less
than
acquaint
him
also
with
it
.
To
which
the
Gentleman
replied
:
My
Lord
,
it
is
not
the
letter
,
cover
or
paper
that
tells
me
so
,
it
is
the
sense
&
meaning
.
I
cry
you
mercy
said
the
Marquess
,
who
shall
be
judge
of
the
meaning
,
you
or
I
?
to
whom
the
Gentleman
gave
his
Lordship
this
answer
,
who
comes
nearest
the
truth
.
Then
said
the
Marquess
,
how
should
we
know
who
comes
nearest
the
truth
?
we
shall
know
that
said
the
Gentleman
by
the
word
it self
.
I
have
told
you
said
the
Marquess
,
that
the
word
it self
sayes
nothing
:
then
said
the
Gentleman
,
there
is
a
perswasive
spirit
that
directs
every
man
&
leads
them
into
all
truth
who
are
seekers
of
her
meerly
for
love
of
her self
.
Indeed
said
the
Marquess
,
I
have
heard
of
such
a
Sect
that
is
newly
sprung
up
,
who
go
under
the
name
of
Seekers
,
but
I
had
rather
be
on
the
finders
side
.
To
which
the
Gentleman
made
answer
.
Seek
&
ye
shall
find
.
To
which
my
L.
replied
,
you
must
have
day-light
,
or
candle-light
,
or
else
your
eys
will
do
you
no
good
:
the
Gentleman
made
answer
,
that
Christ
was
so
easie
to
be
found
of
all
that
sought
him
,
that
if
we
did
but
grope
after
him
,
we
should
find
him
.
I
said
the
Marquess
,
you
say
wel
,
but
not
when
there
is
a
light
in
the
room
;
&
thereupon
the
Marquess
entred
upon
a
large
discourse
,
perswading
the
gentleman
to
return
to
his
mother
again
,
whose
arms
were
always
open
ready
to
embrace
all
that
should
return
into
her
bosom
,
to
whom
the
gentleman
said
if
I
should
turn
now
I
should
be
despised
on
all
sides
.
Oh
,
said
the
Marquess
,
if
that
be
all
,
then
all
is
nothing
,
for
what
can
any
man
say
more
to
you
,
than
this
,
you
have
been
abroad
,
and
you
are
come
home
again
?
51.
The
time
being
come
,
that
the
Prophecy
of
Henry
of
Windsor
must
now
fit
the
fatal
destiny
of
Henry
of
Ragland
,
like
a
thunder-bolt
,
that
splits
downwards
from
the
higher
to
the
lower
branch
of
the
same
tree
,
viz.
that
he
should
live
long
,
and
lose
all
that
Garison
,
had
the
honour
to
make
good
the
rear
hope
for
a
time
,
when
the
main
body
of
the
whole
Kingdom
was
quite
forlorn
;
and
in
her
last
fortunate
and
successfully
sally
,
like
a
dying
Taper
to
make
one
great
blaze
before
she
went
out
,
in
which
exploit
some
of
her
Gentlemen
were
so
gallant
,
as
to
bring
home
Trophies
of
her
victories
,
Colours
,
which
were
no
sooner
dishevelled
,
but
they
spread
to
gather
with
themselves
the
praises
of
these
takers
,
these
being
presented
to
the
Marquess
,
he
turned
away
his
face
,
saying
,
These
are
no
natural
colours
,
they
are
but
borrowed
,
intimating
how
unnatural
the
war
was
,
and
how
soon
these
Colours
must
be
restored
.
52.
When
it
was
told
his
Lordship
not
long
before
he
dyed
,
that
leave
was
obtained
by
the
Parliament
,
that
he
might
be
buried
in
Windsor
Castle
,
within
the
great
Chappel
,
and
wherein
divers
of
his
Ancestors
lie
buried
,
with
some
sprightliness
he
spake
aloud
,
God
bless
us
all
,
why
then
I
shall
take
a
better
Castle
when
I
am
dead
,
then
they
took
from
me
whilst
I
was
alive
.
53.
The
Marquess
a
little
before
he
dyed
,
having
addressed
himself
to
the
House
of
Peers
,
and
having
found
very
hard
usage
from
them
,
broke
forth
into
these
expressions
.
Oh
said
he
,
When
the
Noblest
and
highest
element
,
Courts
the
noise
of
their
Waves
,
the
●…ruest
Emblem
of
the
madness
of
the
people
,
and
when
the
highest
Region
stoops
unto
the
lower
,
and
the
lowest
gets
up
into
the
highest
seat
,
What
can
be
expected
but
a
Chaos
of
confusion
and
desolation
of
the
universe
?
I
do
believe
,
that
they
are
so
near
unto
their
end
,
that
as
weak
as
I
am
,
there
is
Physick
to
be
had
,
if
a
man
could
find
it
to
prolong
my
days
,
that
I
might
outlive
their
honours
.
Not
many
hours
before
he
died
,
reflecting
upon
the
Articles
that
he
had
waived
upon
the
Surrender
of
Ragland
into
the
Parliaments
hands
,
Ah
Doctor
said
he
,
to
Doctor
Baily
,
If
I
had
made
use
of
the
Articles
,
which
you
had
procured
in
my
behalf
,
I
had
not
been
now
so
near
unto
the
end
of
my
life
,
and
the
beginning
of
my
happiness
,
I
forsook
life
,
liberty
&
estate
which
I
might
have
had
,
and
threw
my self
upon
their
mercy
,
which
when
I
had
done
,
if
to
seise
upon
all
my
goods
,
to
pull
down
my
house
,
to
sell
my
estate
,
and
to
send
for
up
such
a
weak
body
,
as
mine
was
,
so
enseebled
by
diseases
in
the
dead
of
winter
,
and
the
Winter
of
mine
age
,
be
merciful
,
What
are
they
whose
mercies
are
so
cruel
?
Neither
do
I
expect
that
they
should
stop
at
all
this
,
for
I
fear
they
will
persecute
me
after
death
:
you
tell
me
,
that
when
I
am
dead
,
you
will
petition
the
Parliament
for
money
to
bury
me
,
then
will
they
appoint
those
who
will
dispose
of
the
time
and
manner
of
my
burial
;
and
you
shall
see
,
that
they
(
being
it
is
so
near
the
good
time
)
will
cause
me
to
be
buried
according
to
the
directory
in
spight
of
Christmas
day
upon
Christmas
:
and
so
they
did
.

thrice
thought

that
the

,
said
to
some
of

,
that
it
was

a

this
had
some
waies
come
to
the

who
kept
it
till
when
the
Queen
waxed
great

then
called
the
Count
of
Soisons
to
him
,

said
,
laying
his

upon
the
Queens
belly
,
Come
Cousin
,
it

no

:
Yes
Sir

answered

it

at

a

said
modestly
to

,
What

Julius
answered
,
What

The

Julius
upon
like
occasion
of
speech
,
why
he
should
bear
so
great
affect
on
to
the

young

say
,
That

found
by

that
it
was
the

was

they

Sir
Nicolas
Bacon
,
being
appointed
a
Judge
for
the
Northern
Circuit
,
and
having
brought
his
Trials
that
came
before
him
to
such
a
passe
,
as
the
passing
of
Sentence
on
Malefactors
,
he
was
by
one
of
the
Malesactors
mightily
importuned
for
to
save
his
life
,
which
when
nothing
that
he
had
said
did
avail
,
he
at
length
desired
his
mercy
on
the
account
of
kindred
:
Prethee
said
my
Lord
Judge
,
how
came
that
in
?
Why
,
if
it
please
you
my
Lord
,
your
name
is
Bacon
,
and
mine
is
Hog
,
and
in
all
ages
Hog
and
Bacon
have
been
so
near
kindred
that
they
are
not
to
be
separated
.
I
but
replied

you

,
to
get
a
suit
,
Aristippus
answered

is
a
strange
thing

Why
should
men
rather
give
to
the
poor

he
answered

Because

think
themselves
may
sooner
come
to
be
poor
than
to
be
Philosophers
.

the

I

you
should
know
these
things
better
than
I.

Methinks

I
could
have
answered
better
my self

Why

Would
you
have
me
contend
with
him
that
commands
thirty

many
protestations
,
That
she
knew
no
more
of
what
he
said
,
than
the
man
in

:
Now
the
Captain
of
the

man
she
so
much
loved

other
did
not

any

turns
back
,
and
waits

but
in
France
they
only
do
reverence

and
pass
by
,
but
the
French
Gentleman
answered
him
,
There
is
reason
for
it
,
for
here
with
us
.
Christ
is
secure
amongst

friends
,
but
in
Spain
,
there
be

Jews
and
Marannos
,
that
it

Gonsalvo
would
say
,
The
honour
of
a
Souldier
ought
to
be
of
a
strong
web
,
meaning
that

disgrace

stick
in
it

Aristippus

lookers
on

another
,
what
's
the
reason
that
this
Gentleman
changeth

,
the
other
answered
,
Sure
,
because
it
may
be

ran
worse
than
the
Gentleman
in

did
use
to
make
the
King
sport
,
telling
him
ever
the
reason
why
he
put
every
one
into
his
Calendar
:
so
when
Charles
the
fifth
passed
upon
confidence
of
the
noble
nature
of
Francis
,
through
France
,
for
the
appeasing
of
the
Rebellion
of
●…aunt
,
Bisquet
put
Charles
the
fifth
into
the
Calendar
,
the
King
asking
the
cause
,
he
said
,
because
you
have
suffered
at
the
hands
of
Charles
the
greatest
bitterness
that
ever
Prince
did
from
other
,
and
therefore
I
account
it
great
folly
in
him
that
he
should
trust
his
person
in
your
hands
.
Why
Bisquet
said
the
King
,
what
wilt
thou
say
,
if
thou
seest
him
pass
in
as
great
safety
,
as
if
it
were
through
the
middest

Bifquet●…
Why
then
I
will
put

him

and
put

My
Lord
,
how
haps
it
,
that
you
have
not
a
Jewel
as
well

My
Lord
Henry
answered

I
am
no
cock

therefore
have
found
no
Jewel

Why

King
send
to

to

answered

because

takes
you
to
be

man
in

Phocion
replied
,
If
he
think
so
,
pray

pickt
quarrels
with
him
by

now
at

present
had
demanded
of
him
to
drink
up
the
Sea
,
whereunto
one
of
the
wise
men
said
,
I
would
have
him
undertake
it
.
Why
,
saith
the
Embassadour
,
how
shall
he
come
off
?
thus
saith
the
wise
man
,
Let
that
King
first
stop
the
Rivers
that
run
into
the
Sea
,
which
is
no
part
of
the
Bargain
,
and
then
your
Master
will
perform
it
.
126.
At
the
same
Banquet
,
the
Embassador
desired
the
seven
,

some
other
wise
then
that
were
at
the
Banquet
every
one
of
them
to
deliver
some
Sentence

Parable
,
that
he
might
report
to
his
King
the
wisdom
of
Grecia
,
which
they
did
,
only
one
was
silent
,
which
the
Embassador
perceiving
said
to
him
;
Sir
let
it
not
displease
you
,
Why
do
you
not
say
somewhat
,
that
I
may
report
?
he
answered
,
Re-port
to
your
Lord
,
that
there
are
of
the
Grecians
that
can
hold
their
peace
.

What
think
you
of
one
who
was
taken

manner

adulterie
?
the
other

Marry
I
think
he
was
slow
at
dispatch

him
;
afterwards
when
a
Concubine
of
his
made
the
same
suit
,
he
granted
it
to
her
,
which
when
Pelopidas
seemed
to
take
unkindly
,
he
said

Such
suits

to
be
granted
to
Whores
,
but
not
to
Personages
of
worth
.

after
their
defeat

Leuctra
,

an
Assembly
of
the
Grecians
,
they
made
a
long
invective
against
Epaminondas
,

up

said
no
more
but
this
,
I
am
glad
we
have
taught
you
to
speak
long
.

Fabius
came
down
the
high
grounds

got
the

think
that

at
one
time

pray
by
what

former
perjury
so
severely

to
him
they
gave
in
charge

should
be
silent
for
fear
of
scaring
of
them
,
but
he
no
sooner

he
cried
aloud
,
Ecce
multi
Cuniculi
,
which
in
English
signifies
,
behold
many
Conies
,
which
he
had
no
sooner
said
,
but
the
Conies
ran
to
their
boroughs
,
and
he
being
checked
by
them
for
it

thought
that
the
Rabits
understood
L●…tine

to
speak
it

her
a
Rapier
taken
from
a
Conspiratour
that
had
a
false
chape
being
of
brown
paper
,
but
guilt
over
,
as
it
could
not
be
known
from
a
chape
of
metal
,
which
was
devised
to
the
end
,
that
without
drawing
the
Rapier
might
give
a
stab
,
and
upon
this
occasion
advise
her
that
she
should
go
lesse
abroad
to
take
the
air
weakly
accompanied

put
in

at

Bar
,
related
to
some
of
his
their
acquaintance
,
That
the
Judges
were
good
fortune
tellers

tell

they
should
live
or
dye
.

to
win
Antiquity
of
Knighthood
in
order

my
Lord
favoured
,
though
indeed
the
more
principal
Gentlemen
were
placed
lowest
:
The
Queen
was
told
of
it
and
said
nothing
,
but
when
she
went
along
she
passed
them
all
by
,
as
far
as
the
Skreen
,
as
if
she
had
forgot
it
,
and
when
she
came
to
the
Skreen
she
seemed
to
take
her self
with
the
manner
,
and
said
,
I
had
almost
forgot
what
I
promised
,
with
that
she
turned
back
,
and
knighted
the
lowest
first

so
upward

Your
Majesty
was
too
Politick
for
my
Lord

answered

I
have
but
fulfilled
the
Scripture
:
the
first
shall
be
last

the
last

Oracle
of
Delphos
,
to
be
the
wisest
man
of
Greece

which
he
would
put
from
himself
Ironically
,
saying
,
There
would
be
nothing
in
him
to
verifie
the
Oracle
,
except
this
,
that
he
was
not
wise
,
and
knew
it

others
were
not
wise

knew
it
not

honour

was
asked
by
one
in
a
kind
of
wonder
,
why
he
had
none
,
answered
,
He
had
much
rather
men
should
ask
and
wonder
why
he
had
no
Statue
,
than
why
he
had
a
Statue
.

had
much
and
private
access
to
Queen
Elizabeth
which
he
used
honourably
,
and
did
many
men
good
,
yet
he
would
say
merrily
of
himself
,
That
he
was
like
Robin
good-fellow
,
for
when
the
Maids
spilt
the
milk-pans
,
or
kept
any
racket
,
they
would
lay
it
upon
Robeen
,
so
what
the
Ladies
about
the

told
her
,

other
bad
offices
that
they
did
,
they
would
put
it
upon

there
was
shewed
him
the
book
of
Heraclitus
the
obscure
,
and
was
asked
his
opinion
of
it
,
answered
.
Those
things
which
I
understood
were
excellent
,
I
imagine
so
were
those
that
I
understood
not
,
but
they
require
a
diver
of
Delos
.

the
Philosopher
,
when
the

about
him

that
one

to
him
,
the

come
wondring
about
you
,
as
if
it
were
to
see
some
strange
beast
,
No
,
saith
he
,
it
is
to
see
a
man
which
Diogenes
sought
with
his
Lanthorn
at
noon
day
.
149.
A
man
being
very
jealous
of
his
wife
,
insomuch
that
which
way
soever
she
went
,
he
would
be
prying
at
her
heels
,
and
she
being
so
grieved
thereat
,
in
plain
terms
told
him
,
That
if
he
did
not
for
the
future
leave
off
his
proceedings
in
that
nature
,
she
would
graft
such
a
pair
of
horns
upon
his
head
,
that
should
h●…nder
him
from
coming
out
of
any
door
in
the
house

Italy
;
in
the
fight
there
was
a
band
of
the
Caducians
of
a
thousand

did
notable
service
:
whereupon
after
the
fight
,
Marius
did
denison
them
all
for
Citizens
of
Rome
,
though
there
was
no
Law

warrant
it
:
one
of
his
friends
did
represent
it
to
him
,
that
he
had
transgressed
the
Law
,
because
that
Priviledge
was
not
to
be
granted
,
but
by
the
people
,
whereunto
Marius
answered
,
That
for
the
noise
of
arms
he
could
not
hear
the
Laws
.

Mr.
Bacon
would
say
,
That
it
was
in
business
,
as
it
is
commonly
in
wayes

that
the

way
is
commonly
the

the
fairest
way
,
he
must
go
somewhat
about
.

out

P●…sthumus
Agrippa
his
Grand-child
,
whereof
the
two
first
were
infamous
,
and
the
last
otherwise
unworthy

would
say
,
That
they
were
not
his
seed
,
but
some
imposthumes
that
had
broken
from
him
.

A

together
,
who
knew
him
,
where
being
in
some
passion
that
he
could
not
suddenly
pass
,
one
of
them
in
this
wise
spoke
unto
him
,
That
others

past
by
and
there
was
room
enough
only
he
could
not
tell
whether
their
horns
were
so
wide
as
his
.

Pompey
did
consummate
the
war

means
his
friends
made
,
was
sent
to
put
an
end
to
that
war
;
whereupon
Lucullus
taking
indignation
,
as
a
disgrace
offered
to
himself
,
said
,
that
Pompey
was
like
a
carrion
Cro●…

that
when
others
had
struck
down
bodies
,
he
came
to
prey
upon
them

Epictetus
used
to
say
,
That
one
of
the
vulgar
,
if
any
ill
happens
to
him
,
blames
others

a
novice
in
Philosophy
blames
himself

Philosopher
blames
neither
the
one
nor
the
other
.

Hiero

Thither
saith
Pythagoras
,
come
some
to
win
the

some
come
to
sell
their
Merchandise

because
it
is
a
kind
of
Mart
of
all
Greece
,
some
come
to
meet
their
friends
,
and
make
merry
,
because
of
the
great
confluence
of
all
sorts
,
others
come
only
to
look
on
,
meaning
it
of
Philosophy
,
and
the
contemplative
life

Plato
the

That
riches

like
muck
and
dung
,
when
it
lay
upon
an
heap
,
it
gave
but
a
stench
and
ill
odour
,
but
when
it
was
spread
upon
the
ground
,
then
it
was
cause
of
much
fruit
:
and
he
further
said
,
That
vertuous
men
were
like
some
herbs
and
spices
,
that
gave
not
their
sweet
smell
,
until
they
be
broken
and
crusht

set
up
called
the

with
an
intent
to

told
him

he
should
do
very
well
if
he
would
stop
those
two
holes
in
the
Pillory
,
to
which
the
Tinker
answered
,
That
if
he
would
but
put
in
his
head

ears
a
while
in

Pillory
,
he
would
lestow

upon
him
to
hold
him
in
&
give
him
his
labor
in
to
the
bargain

Cesar
in
his
book
that
he
made
against
Cato
,
did
write
to
shew
the
force
of
opinion
and
reverence
of
a
man
that
had
once
obtained
popular
reputation
,
That
there
were
some
that
found
Cato
drunk
,
and
they
were
ashamed
instead
of
Cato
.

Aristippus
sailing
in
a
Tempest
shewed
signs
of
fear
,
one
of
the
Seamen
said
to
him
in
an
insulting
manner
,
We
that
are
Plebeians
are
not
troubled
,
you
that
are
Philosophers
are
afraid
.
Aristippus
answered
,
There
is
not
the
like
wager
upon
it
,
for
me
to
perish
,
and
you
.
163.
There
was
an
Oratour
that
defended
a
cause
of
Aristippus
,
and
prevailed
,
afterwards
,
he
ask'd
Aristippus
,
Now
in
your
distress
,
what
did
Socrates
do
you
good
?
Aristippus
answered
thus
,
In
making
true
that
good
which
you
said
of
me
.
Concerning
mony
,
he
further
declared
,
That
he
took
mony
of
his
friends
,
not
so
much
to
use
it
himself
,
but
to
teach
them
how
to
bestow
their
mony
.

The
Lady
Paget
,
that
was
very
private
with
Queen
Elizabeth
,
declared
her self
much
against
her
match
with
Monsieur
,
after
Monsieurs
death
the
Queen
took
extream
grief
,
at
least
as
she
made
shew
,
and
kept
within
her
bed-Chamber
,
and
one
Ante-chamber
for
three
weeks
space
,
in
token
of
mourning
:
At
last
she
came
forth
into
her
privy
Chamber
,
and
admitted
her
Ladies
to
have
access
unto
her
,
and
amongst
the
rest
my
Lady
Paget
presented
her self
,
and
came
to
her
with
a
smiling
countenance
:
the
Queen
bent
her
brows
,
and
seemed
to
be
highly
displeased
,
and
said
to
her
,
Madam
,
you
are
not
ignorant
of
my
extream
grief
,
and
do
you
come
to
me
with
a
countenance
of
joy
?
My
Lady
Paget
answered
,
Alas
,
and
it
please
your
Majesty
,
it
is
impossible
for
me
to
be
absent
from
you
three
weeks
,
but
that
when
I
see
you
I
must
look
chearfully
.
No
no
,
said
the
Queen
,
not
forgetting
her
former
averseness
from
the
Match
,
you
have
some
other
conceit
in
it
,
tell
me
plainly
.
My
Lady
answered
,
I
must
●…bey
you
,
it
is
this
,
I
was
thinking
,
how
happy
your
Majesty
was
in
that
you
married
not
Monsieur
,
for
seeing
you
take
such
thought
for
his
death
,
being
but
your
friend
,
if
he
had
been
your
husband
,
sure
it
would
have
●…st
you
your
life
.

Sir
Edward
Dyer
,
a
brave
and
wise
Gentleman
,
did
much
believe
in
Kelly
the
Alchimist
that
he
did
indeed
the
work
,
and
made
gold
,
insomuch
as
he
went
himself
into
Germany
,
where
Kelly
then
was
,
to
confirm
himself
fully
thereof
,
at
his
return
he
dined
with
my
Lord
of
Canterbury
,
when
at
that
time
was
at
the
Table
Doctor
Brown
the
Physician
,
they
fell
in
talk
o●…
Kelly
,
Sir
Edward
Dyer
turning
to
the
Archbishop
,
said
,
I
do
assure
your
Grace
,
that
that
I
shall
tell
you
is
truth
,
I
was
an
eye-witness
thereof
,
and
if
I
had
n●…t
seen
it
,
I
should
not
have
believed
it
,
I
saw
Kelly
put
of
the
metal
into
the
crusible
,
and
after
it
was
set
a
little
upon
the
fire
,
&
a
very
small
quantity
of
the
medicine
put
in
,
and
stirred
with
a
stick
of
word
,
it
came
forth
in
good
proportion
perfect
gold
to
the
touch
,
to
the
hammer
,
and
to
the
test
:
said
the
Bishop
,
you
had
need
take
heed
what
you
say
,
Sir
Edward
Dyer
,
for
here
is
an
Infidel
at
the
board
.
Sr
Edward
Dyer
said
again
pleasantly
,
I
would
have
looked
for
an
Insidel
sooner
in
any
place
than
at
your
Graces
Table
.
Wha●…●…ay
you
Doctor
Brown
?
saith
the
Bishop
.
Doctor
Brown
answered
after
his
blunt
and
hadling
manner
,
the
Gentleman
hath
spoken
enough
for
me
.
Why
,
saith
the
B●…shop
,
What
hath
he
said
?
Marry
said
Doctor
Brown
he
said
,
he
would
not
have
believed
it
,
except
he
had
seen
it
,
and
no
more
will
I.

A
young
Maid
having
married
an
old
man
,
was
observed
on
the
day
of
marriage
to
be
somewhat
moody
,
as
if
she
had
eaten
a
dish
of
chums
,
which
one
of
her
Bridemen
observing
bid
her
be
cheery
,
and
told
her
moreover
,
that
are
old
horse
would
hold
out
as
long
,
and
as
well
as
a
young
in
travel
:
to
which
she
answered
,
stroking
down
her
belly
w●…th
her
hand
,
But
not
in
this
road
,
Sir.

Democritus
said

That

A
Seaman
coming
before
the
Judges
of
the
Admiralty
for
admittance
into
office
in
a
ship
bound
for
the
Indies
,
was
by
one
of
the
Judges
much
sleighted
,
as
an
insufficient
person
for
that
office
which
he
sought
for
to
acquire
,
till
the
Judge
telling
him
,
that
he
believed
,
that
he
could
not
say
the
poin●…s
of
his
Compass
;
the
Seaman
answered
,
better
than
he
could
say
his
Pater
N●…ster
:
the
Judge
replyed
,
that
he
would
wager
twenty
shillings
with
him
of
that
:
so
the
Seaman
taking
him
up
,
it
came
to
trial
,
and
the
Seaman
began
and
said
all
the
points
of
his
Compass
very
exactly
,
the
Judge
likewise
said
his
Pater
Noster
,
and
when
he
had
finished
it
,
he
required
the
wager
according
to
agreement
,
because
the
Seaman
was
to
say
his
Compass
better
than
he
his
Pater
Noster
,
which
he
had
not
performed
:
my
hold
,
quoth
the
Sea
man
,
the
wager
is
not
finished
,
for
I
have
but
half
done
;
and
so
he
immediately
said
his
Compass
backward
very
exactly
,
which
the
Judge
failing
of
in
his
Pater
Noster
,
the
Setman
carried
away
the
prize
.

Doctor
Johnson
said
,
that
in
sickness
there
were
three
things
that
were
material
,
the
Physician
,
the
disease
,
and
the
Patient
,
and
if
any
two
of
these
joyned
,
then
they
have
the
victory
:
for
if
the
Physician
and
the
Patient
joyn
,
then
down
goes
the
disease
,
for
the
Patient
recovers
;
if
the
Physician
and
the
disease
joyn
,
then
down
goes
the
Patient
,
that
is
,
where
the
Physician
mistakes
the
c●…re
;
if
the
Patient
and
the
disease
joyn
,
then
down
goes
the
Physician
,
for
he
is
discredited
.

Alexander
visited
Diogenes
in
his
Tub
,
and
when
he
asked
what
he
would
desire
of
him
,
Diogenes
answered
,
That
you
would
stand
a
little
aside
,
that
the
Sun
may
come
to
me
.
171.
Diogenes
called
an
ill
Musician
Cock
,
Why
saith
he
?
Diogenes
answered
,
because
when
you
crow
,
men
use
to
rise
.

grossely
by
another

himself
to
Sir

Scholar
,
and
ask
his
advice
,
what
he
should
do
to
repair
the
wrong
had
been
offered
him
;
Raleigh
answered
,
Why
challenge
him
at
a
match
of
shooting
.
173.
Whitehead
a
grave
Divine
was
much
esteemed
by
Queen
Elizabeth
,
but
not
preferred
,
because
he
was
against
the
Government
of
Bishops
,
he
was
of
a
blunt
Stoical
nature
,
he
came
one
day
to
the
Queen
,
and
the
Queen
happened
to
say
to
him
,
I
like
thee
the
better
,
Whitehead
,
because
thou
livest
unmarried
.
He
answered
,
In
troth
Madam
,
I
like
you
the
worse
for
the
same
cause
.

There
was
a
Noble
man
that
was
lean
of
visage
,
but
immediately
after
his
marriage
he
grew
pretty
plump
,
and
fat
,
one
said
to
him
,
Your
Lordship
doth
contrary
to
other
married
men
,
for
they
at
the
first
wax
lean
,
and
you
wax
fat
,
Sir
Walter
Raleigh
stood
by
and
said
,
Why
there
is
no
beast
,
that
if
you
take
him
from
the
common
,
and
put
him
into
the
Several
,
but
he
will
wax
fat
.

Diogenes
seeing

not
his

Doctor
Lawd
said
,
that
some
Hypocrites
and
seeming
mortified
men
,
that
held
down
their
heads
like
bulrushes
,
were
like
little
Images
that
they
place
in
the
very
bowing
of
the
vaults
of
Churches
,
that
look
as
if
they
held
up
the
Church
,
but
are
but
puppets
.

A
Noble
man
of
this
Nation
,
famously
known
for
his
mad
tricks
,
on
a
time
having
taken
Physick
,
which
he
perceiving
that
it
began
well
to
work
,
called
up
his
man
to
go
for
a
Surgeon
presently
,
and
to
bring
his
instruments
with
him
:
the
Surgeon
comes
in
all
speed
;
to
whom
my
Lord
related
,
that
he
found
himself
much
addicted
to
women
,
and
therefore
it
was
his
will
,
that
the
cause
of
it
might
be
taken
away
,
and
therefore
commanded
him
forthwith
to
prepare
his
instruments
ready
for
to
geld
him
;
so
the
Surgeon
prepared
forthwith
prepares
accordingly
,
and
my
Lord
told
him
that
he
would
not
see
it
done
,
and
therefore
that
he
should
do
his
work
the
back
way
,
so
both
parties
being
contented
,
my
Lord
makes
ready
,
and
holds
up
his
A
—
and
when
he
perceives
the
Surgeon
very
near
him
,
he
lets
she
full
in
his
face
,
which
made
the
Surgeon
step
back
,
but
coming
presently
on
again
;
Hold
,
hold
,
〈◊〉
my
Lord
,
I
will
better
consider
of
it
,
for
I
see
the
re●…ntive
faculty
is
very
weak
at
the
very
appro●…ch
of
such
keen
instruments
.

The
Lord
Henry
Howard
,
being
Lord
privy
Seal
,
was
ask'd
by
the
King
openly
at
the
Table
,
where
commonly
he
entertained
the
King
upon
the
sudden
,
My
Lord
have
you
not
a
desire
to
see
Rome
?
My
Lord
Privy
Seal
answered
,
yes
indeed
Sir.
The
King
said
,
and
why
?
My
Lord
answered
,
because
,
and
it
please
your
Majesty
,
it
was
once
the
Seat
of
the
greatest
Monarchy
,
and
the
Seminary
of
the
bravest
men
in
the
world
amongst
the
Heathen
,
and
then
again
,
because
it
was
the
See
of
so
many
holy
Bishops
in
the
Primitive
Church
,
most
of
them
Martyrs
.
The
King
would
not
give
it
over
,
and
for
nothing
else
?
My
Lord
answered
,
Yes
,
It
please
your
Majesty
,
for
two
things
especially
,
the
one
to
see
him
who
they
say
hath
such
a
power
to
forgive
other
mens
sins
,
to
confess
his
sins
upon
his
own
knees
before
a
Chaplain
or
Priest
,
and
the
other
is
to
hear
Antichrist
say
his
Creed
.
178.
There
was
a
Noble
man
said
of
great
Counsellour
,
That
he
would
have
made
the
worst
Farrier
in
the
world
,
for
he
never
shod
horse
but
he
cloyed
him
,
so
he
never
commended
any
man
to
the
King
for
service
,
or
upon
any
occasion
of
Suit
,
or
otherwise
,
but
that
he
would
come
in
the
end
with
a
But
,
and
drive
in
a
nail
to
his
disadvantage
.
179.
There
was
a
curst
Page
that
his
Master
whipt
naked
,
and
when
he
had
been
whipt
,
would
not
put
on
his
cloaths
,
and
when
his
Master
bad
him
,
Take
them
you
,
for
they
are
the
Hang-mans
Fees.

There
was
a
Gentleman
sell
very
sick
,
and
a
friend
of
his
said
to
him
,
Surely
you
are
indanger
,
I
pray
send
for
a
Physician
,
but
the
sick
man
answered
,
It
is
no
matter
,
for
if
I
dye
,
I
will
die
at
leisure
.
181.
There
was
a
Lady
of
the
West
Countrey
,
that
gave
great
entertainment
at
her
house
to
most
of
the
gallant
Gentlemen
thereabouts
,
and
amongst
others
,
Sir
Walter
Raleigh
was
one
,
this
Lady
,
though
otherwise
a
stately
Dame
,
was
a
notable
good
housewife
,
and
in
the
morning
betimes
,
she
called
to
one
of
her
Maids
,
that
lo●…kt
to
the
Swine
,
and
asked
,
are
the
pigs
served
?
Sir
Walter
Raleighs
chamber
was
fast
by
the
Ladies
,
so
as
he
heard
her
;
a
little
before
dinner
,
the
Lady
came
down
in
great
State
into
the
great
Chamber
,
which
was
full
of
gentlemen
,
and
as
soon
as
Sir
Walter
Raleigh
set
eye
upon
her
,
Madam
,
saith
he
,
Are
the
Pigs
served
?
The
Lady
answered
,
You
know
best
,
whether
you
have
had
your
breakfast
.
182.
There
was
an
Epicurian
vaunted
that
divers
of
other
sorts
of
Philosophers
did
after
turn
Epicureans
,
but
that
there
was
never
any
Epicurean
that
turned
to
any
other
sect
,
whereupon
a
Philosopher
that
was
of
another
sect
,
said
the
reason
was
plain
,
For
that
Cocks
may
be
made
Capons
,
but
Capons
could
neuer
be
made
Cocks
.
183.
An
old
Baud
,
being
as
she
supposed
on
her
death-bed
was
importunned
by
one
who
had
been
a
constant
customer
to
her
house
,
that
she
would
put
a
Girl
into
his
hand
,
not
onely
handsom
but
wholsom
,
which
she
accordingly
promised
,
and
to
that
end
,
called
up
for
one
,
who
appearing
,
the
Gentleman
was
not
in
all
respects
satisfied
concerning
her
,
he
therefore
prest
her
hard
to
know
assuredly
,
whether
she
was
according
as
the
old
Bawd
promised
,
to
which
she
answered
,
That
she
was
,
and
further
left
it
to
him
to
judge
with
what
comfort
and
confidence
she
could
expect
to
meet
her
Saviour
,
if
she
should
leave
the
world
with
a
lie
in
her
mouth
.

A
man
having
backs●…den
,
so
as
to
raise
a
maids
belly
,
and
it
being
commonly
known
,
his
friends
and
relations
came
together
on
purpose
for
to
reprove
him
,
hoping
it
might
prove
a
remedy
from
any
such
future
malady
,
and
every
one
had
a
saying
to
him
,
and
the
end
of
all
their
sayings
was
a
wondering
at
him
that
he
should
do
so
,
and
so
:
well
,
he
having
patiently
heard
them
made
this
answer
,
You
make
a
wondering
and
a
wonder
that
I
should
get
her
with
child
,
now
that
is
usual
,
and
therefore
no
cause
of
wonder
,
but
you
would
have
had
somewhat
indeed
to
wonder
at
,
if
you
had
found
that
she
had
got
me
with
Child
.

excellent
similitude
,
Sir
Thomas
teacheth
us
why
few
do
fear
death
,
even
as
they
that
look
upon
things
afar
off
,
see
them
conf●…sedly
,
not
knowing
whether
they
be
men
or
trees
:
even
so
,
he
that
promiseth
unto
himself
long
life
,
looketh
upon
death
,
as
a
thing
afar
off
,
not
judg●…ng
what
it
is
,
how
terrible
,
what
grief
and
danger
it
brings
with
it
:
and
that
none
ought
to
promise
to
himself
long
life
,
he
proveth
thus
,
Even
as
two
men
that
are
brought
out
of
prison
to
the
gallows
,
one
by
a
long
way
about
,
the
other
by
a
direct
straight
path
,
yet
neither
knowing
which
is
which
,
until
they
come
to
the
Gallows
,
neither
of
these
two
can
promise
himself
longer
life
by
reason
of
the
uncertainty
of
the
way
,
even
so
,
a
young
man
cannot
promise
himself
longer
life
than
an
old
man.
2.
Against
the
vanity
of
worldly
honour
,
he
speaks
thus
:
Even
as
that
criminal
person
who
is
lead
to
execution
should
be
accounted
vain
if
he
should
ingrave
his
coat
of
arms
upon
the
Prison
gate
,
even
so
are
they
vain
who
endeavour
to
leave
with
great
industry
,
monuments
of
their
dignity
in
the
prison
of
this
world
.
3.
By
a
subtil
〈◊〉
he
teacheth
us
,
why
we
are
not
to
think
that
we
can
be
hurt
by
the
loss
of
our
supers●…ous
goods
in
this
manner
,
He
that
suffereth
any
loss
of
his
goods
,
he
would
either
have
bestowed
them
with
praise
,
and
liberality
,
and
so
God
will
accept
his
will
instead
of
the
deed
it self
,
or
else
he
would
have
wasted
them
wickedly
,
and
then
he
hath
cause
to
rejoyce
,
that
the
matter
of
sinning
is
taken
away
.
4.
To
express
lively
the
folly
of
an
old
covetous
man
,
he
writeth
thus
,
A
Thief
that
is
to
dye
to
morrow
,
stealeth
to
day
and
being
asked
why
he
did
so
,
he
answered
That
it
was
great
pleasure
to
him
to
be
Master
of
that
mony
but
one
night
:
so
an
old
Miser
never
ceaseth
to
increase
his
heap
of
coin
,
though
he
be
never
so
aged
.
5.
He
saith
also
,
That
those
which
give
themselves
to
pleasure
and
idleness
in
the
time
of
their
Pilgrimage
,
are
like
to
him
who
is
travelling
to
his
own
house
,
where
there
is
abundance
of
all
things
,
would
yet
be
an
Ostler
in
an
Inn
by
the
way
,
for
to
get
an
Inn-keepers
favour
,
and
to
end
his
life
there
in
a
Stable
.
6.
Pleasure
saith
he
,
doth
not
only
draw
wicked
men
from
Prayer
,
but
also
affliction
sometime
,
yet
this
is
the
difference
,
that
affliction
doth
sometimes
wrest
some
short
prayer
from
the
wickedest
man
alive
,
but
pleasure
calleth
away
even
one
that
is
indifferent
good
from
all
prayer
.
7.
Against
impenitent
persons
,
and
such
as
defer
the
amending
of
their
lives
to
the
latter
end
of
their
daies
,
he
saith
thus
,
A
leud
fellow
that
had
spent
all
his
life
in
wickedness
was
wont
to
brag
that
he
could
be
saved
,
if
he
spoke
but
three
words
at
the
hour
of
his
death
;
riding
over
a
bridge
that
was
broken
,
his
horse
stumbling
,
&
not
being
able
to
save
himself
from
falling
into
the
water
,
when
he
saw
himself
past
recovery
,
casting
away
the
bridle
,
he
said
,
The
Devil
take
all
,
and
so
with
his
three
words
he
perished
in
the
River
.
8.
Even
as
he
that
passeth
over
a
narrow
Bridge
,
by
reason
of
his
fear
often
falleth
,
especially
if
others
say
to
him
you
fall
,
which
otherwise
he
would
safely
pass
over
,
even
so
,
he
that
is
fearful
by
nature
,
and
full
of
pusillanimity
often
falleth
into
desperation
,
the
Devil
crying
unto
hi●…
,
thou
art
damned
,
which
he
would
never
hearken
to
,
nor
be
in
any
danger
of
if
he
should
take
unto
him
a
good
heart
,
and
by
wholsom
councel
nothing
fear
the
Devils
out-cry
.
9.
The
prosperity
of
this
world
,
is
like
the
shortest
winters
day
,
and
we
are
listed
up
in
it
as
an
Arrow
shot
upon
high
,
where
a
short
breath
do●…h
delight
us
,
but
from
thence
we
fall
suddenly
to
the
earth
,
and
there
we
stick
fast
,
either
bemired
with
the
dirt
of
insamy
,
or
starving
with
cold
,
being
pluck'd
on
t
of
our
feathers
.
10.
It
is
a
hard
thing
to
touch
pitch
and
not
be
desiled
therewith
,
a
dry
stick
to
be
put
into
the
fire
,
and
not
to
be
burnt
,
to
nourish
a
Snake
in
our
bosom
,
and
not
to
be
stung
with
it
:
So
a
m●…st
hard
thing
it
is
to
be
rich
and
honoured
in
this
world
,
and
not
be
struck
with
the
dart
of
Pride
and
vai●…-glory
.
11.
Let
there
be
two
beggars
,
who
a
long
time
begged
together
,
one
of
whom
some
rich
man
hath
entertained
in
his
house
,
put
him
in
Silk
,
give
him
mony
in
his
purse
,
but
with
this
cond●…tion
as
he
tells
him
,
within
a
short
space
he
will
thrust
him
out
of
his
doors
,
and
take
all
that
away
from
him
again
;
if
he
in
the
mean
while
being
thus
gallant
,
should
chance
to
meet
with
his
fellow
beggar
,
would
he
be
so
foolish
as
for
all
this
not
to
acknowledge
him
for
his
companion
?
or
would
he
for
those
few
daies
happiness
hold
himself
better
than
he
?
applying
this
to
every
mans
case
,
Who
cometh
naked
into
this
world
,
and
is
to
return
naked
again
.
12.
If
he
be
called
stout
,
that
hath
sortitude
,
he
hot
who
hath
heat
,
wise
that
hath
wisdom
,
yet
he
who
hath
riches
cannot
be
said
presently
to
be
good
,
therefore
riches
cannot
be
numbred
among
good
things
.
Twenty
,
yea
,
a
hundred
bare
heads
standing
by
a
Noble
man
doth
not
defend
his
head
from
cold
,
so
much
as
his
own
hat
doth
alone
,
which
yet
he
is
inforced
to
put
off
in
the
presence
of
his
Prince
.
13.
He
that
knoweth
certainly
,
he
is
to
be
banished
into
a
strange
Country
never
to
return
again
〈◊〉
his
own
,
and
will
not
endure
that
his
goods
be
transported
thither
,
being
loath
to
want
them
for
that
little
while
,
rather
than
ever
to
enjoy
them
after
,
may
well
be
thought
a
mad
man
:
so
are
they
out
of
their
wits
who
intic'd
with
a
vain
affections
to
keep
their
goods
alwaies
about
them
,
and
neglective
to
give
alms
for
fear
of
wanting
,
cannot
endure
to
have
their
goods
sent
before
them
to
heaven
,
when
as
they
know
most
assuredly
,
that
they
shall
enjoy
them
alwaies
there
,
with
all
plenty
,
and
with
a
double
reward
.
14.
To
ease
his
thoughts
when
he
was
in
Prison
,
He
imagined
that
all
the
world
was
but
a
Prison
,
out
of
which
every
day
some
one
or
other
was
called
to
execution
.
15.
When
he
heard
any
at
his
Table
speaking
detraction
,
he
would
interrupt
them
thus
,
Let
any
man
think
as
he
pleaseth
,
I
like
this
room
very
well
,
for
it
is
very
well
contrived
,
and
fairly
built
.
16.
Of
an
ungrateful
person
,
he
would
say
,
That
they
wrote
good
turns
d●…ne
unto
them
in
the
dust
,
but
even
the
least
injuries
in
marble
.
17.
He
compareth
reason
to
an
handmaid
,
which
if
she
be
well
taught
will
obey
,
and
faith
to
the
Mistress
,
!
which
is
to
keep
her
in
awe
.
18.
He
said
,
That
he
was
a
mad
man
that
would
drink
poyson
to
take
a
preservative
after
it
,
but
he
is
a
wiseman
,
that
spilling
the
poyson
,
leaveth
the
Antidote
for
him
that
hath
need
thereof
.
19.
When
Sir
Thomas
Moore
lived
in
the
City
of
London
,
being
one
of
the
Justices
of
Peace
,
he
used
to
go
to
the
Sessions
at
New
gate
,
where
it
fell
out
,
that
one
of
the
ancientest
Justices
of
the
Bench
was
wont
to
chide
the
poor
men
whose
purses
had
been
cut
,
for
not
being
more
careful
,
telling
them
,
their
negligence
was
the
cause
that
so
many
cut-purses
were
brought
thither
,
which
when
Sir
Thomas
Moore
observed
him
so
often
to
repeat
at
one
time
,
especially
,
the
night
after
he
sent
for
one
of
the
chief
cut-purses
that
was
in
prison
,
and
promised
to
save
him
harmless
,
and
stand
his
friend
too
,
if
he
would
cut
the
aforesaid
Justices
Purse
the
next
day
as
he
sate
on
the
Bench
,
and
then
presently
make
a
sign
of
it
to
him
:
the
fellow
very
gladly
promiseth
him
to
do
it
the
next
day
,
therefore
when
they
sate
again
,
that
Thief
was
called
among
the
first
,
who
being
accused
of
his
fact
,
said
,
he
did
not
doubt
but
that
he
could
sufficiently
excuse
himself
,
if
he
were
permitted
to
speak
to
some
of
the
Bench
in
private
,
he
was
therefore
bid
to
chuse
one
who
he
would
,
and
presently
he
chose
that
grave
old
man
,
who
then
had
his
pouch
at
his
girdle
,
as
they
wore
them
in
those
dayes
,
and
whilst
he
whispered
him
in
the
ear
,
he
cunningly
cut
his
purse
,
and
then
solemnly
taking
his
leave
,
returns
to
his
place
,
Sir
Thomas
knowing
by
a
private
sign
,
that
the
business
was
dispatcht
,
presently
took
occasion
to
move
the
Bench
to
distribute
some
alms
to
a
poor
needy
fellow
that
was
there
,
and
for
good
example
began
himself
to
do
it
,
when
the
old
man
came
to
open
his
purse
,
and
sees
it
cut
away
,
and
much
wondering
said
,
he
was
confident
he
brought
it
with
him
when
he
came
thither
that
morning
.
Sir
Thomas
replied
presently
,
What
will
you
charge
any
of
us
with
felony
?
but
his
choler
rising
,
and
he
being
ashamed
of
the
thing
;
Sir
Thomas
calls
the
Cut-purse
,
and
bids
him
give
him
his
purse
again
,
and
withal
advised
the
good
old
Justice
hereafter
,
Not
to
be
so
bitter
a
censurer
of
innocent
mens
negligence
,
when
as
himself
could
not
secure
his
purse
in
that
open
assembly
20.
When
he
was
Lord
Chancellour
,
one
of
the
house
of
the
Manors
whom
the
King
had
lately
preferred
to
a
great
honour
,
who
before
that
had
been
a
great
friend
of
Sir
Thomas
Moores
,
but
perceiving
now
that
the
world
began
somewhat
to
frown
upon
him
,
because
he
was
not
so
forward
as
other
men
to
perswade
the
King
to
the
divorce
,
and
being
desirous
to
pick
so●…e
quarrel
against
him
,
My
Lord
,
said
,
Honores
mut●…nt
mores
,
Sir
Thomas
readily
replied
,
It
as
so
indeed
my
Lord
,
but
Mores
signifies
in
English
manners
,
not
More
;
which
answer
put
my
Gentleman
to
a
nihil
di●…
.
21.
Sir
Thomas
Moore
having
le●…t
a
Gentleman
mony
in
some
time
afterwards
demanded
it
back
of
the
Gentleman
,
the
Gentleman
bid
him
remember
he
must
dye
,
and
God
knows
how
soon
,
and
that
then
he
should
have
little
use
of
mony
,
adding
the
Se●…ence
in
Latin
,
the
better
to
please
Sr.
●…h
ma●…
,
Memento
morieris
:
to
which
Sir
〈◊〉
.
presently
answer'd
,
What
say
you
Sir
?
methinks
you
put
your self
in
mind
of
your
duty
herein
,
saying
,
Memento
Moriaeris
,
Remember
Moores
mony
.
21.
It
happened
on
a
time●…
hat
a
beggars
little
dog
which
she
had
lost
,
was
sent
to
the
Lady
Moore
for
a
Present
,
and
she
had
kept
it
about
a
week
very
carefully
,
but
at
last
the
beggar
having
notice
where
her
dog
was
,
presently
came
and
complained
to
Sir
Thomas
,
as
he
was
sitting
in
his
Hall
,
that
his
Lady
kept
her
dog
from
her
,
presently
my
Lady
was
sent
for
,
and
the
dog
brought
with
her
,
which
Sir
Thomas
taking
in
his
arms
,
he
caused
his
wife
to
stand
at
the
upper
end
of
the
Hall
,
and
the
beggar
at
the
lower
end
,
and
then
saying
,
That
he
sate
there
to
do
every
one
justice
,
He
badeach
of
them
call
the
Dog
,
which
when
they
did
,
the
dog
ran
presently
to
the
beggar
,
forsaking
his
Lady
;
when
he
saw
this
,
he
bid
his
Wife
be
contented
for
it
was
none
of
hers
:
yet
she
repining
at
his
Sentence
,
agreed
with
the
beggar
,
and
gave
her
a
piece
of
Gold
:
so
all
parties
were
satisfied
,
every
one
smiling
at
this
strange
discovery
of
truth
.
23.
Another
time
a
certain
friend
of
his
taking
great
pains
about
a
Book
which
he
intended
to
publish
,
being
well
conce●…ted
of
his
own
wit
,
which
no
body
else
thought
worth
of
commendation
,
and
because
he
would
Sir
Thomas
Moore
should
observe
it
e're
it
were
Printed
,
he
brought
it
to
him
,
who
perusing
it
and
finding
nothing
therein
worthy
the
Presse
,
said
with
a
grave
countenance
,
If
it
were
in
verse
,
it
were
more
worth
;
upon
which
words
he
went
immediately
and
turned
it
into
verse
,
and
then
brought
it
again
to
Sir
Thomas
,
who
looking
thereon
said
soberly
,
Yea
marry
now
it
is
somewhat
,
for
now
it
is
Rithm
,
before
it
was
neither
Rithm
,
nor
Reason
.
24.
And
what
ever
Jest
he
brought
forth
,
he
never
laughed
at
any
himself
,
but
spoke
them
so
seriously
,
that
few
could
discern
by
his
look
,
whether
he
were
in
earnest
or
in
jest
,
as
once
talking
with
another
in
dispute
of
his
Dialogues
by
some
occasion
,
they
happened
to
speak
of
a
Dogs
Turd
,
at
that
very
instant
one
of
his
men
came
to
tell
him
that
dinner
was
ready
,
to
whom
he
said
,
look
that
there
be
better
mea●…
provided
for
us
than
that
;
who
presently
went
and
told
his
Lady
,
that
his
Lord
would
have
better
meat
provided
for
his
Dinner
,
which
caused
a
great
disturbance
in
the
house
,
till
at
last
the
mistake
being
known
,
the
sea
of
their
disturbance
was
calmed
in
a
fit
of
laughing
.
25.
Sir
Thomas
Moore
had
only
daughters
at
the
first
,
and
his
Wife
did
ever
pray
for
a
boy
,
at
last
she
had
a
boy
,
which
after
at
mans
years
proved
simple
,
Sir
Thomas
said
to
his
Wife
,
Thou
prayedst
so
long
for
a
boy
,
that
he
will
be
a
boy
as
long
as
he
lives
.
26.
Sir
Thomas
Moore
the
day
he
was
beheaded
,
had
a
Barber
sent
to
him
,
because
his
hair
was
long
which
was
thought
would
make
him
more
commiserable
with
the
people
,
the
Barber
came
to
him
,
and
asked
him
whether
he
would
be
pleased
to
be
trimmed
,
In
good
faith
honest
fellow
,
said
Sir
Thomas
,
the
King
and
I
have
a
suit
for
my
head
,
and
till
the
Title
be
cleared
,
I
will
do
no
c●…st
upon
it
.

Sir
Thomas
Moore
had
sent
him
by
a
Suiter
in
the
Chancery
two
silver
flaggons
,
when
they
were
presented
by
the
Gentlemans
servant
,
he
said
to
one
of
his
men
,
Have
him
to
the
Cellar
,
and
let
him
have
of
my
best
Wine
,
and
turning
to
the
servant
said
,
tell
thy
M●…ster
friend
,
if
he
like
it
,
let
him
not
spare
it
.
28.
When
Sir
Thomas
Moore
was
Lord
Chance●…lour
,
he
did
use
at
Masse
to
sit
in
the
Chancel
,
and
his
Lady
in
a
Pew
,
and
because
the
Pew
stood
out
of
sight
,
his
Gentleman
Usher
ever
afte●…
Service
came
to
the
Ladies
Pew
,
and
said
,
Madam
,
my
Lord
,
is
gone
:
so
when
the
Chancellors
place
was
taken
from
him
,
the
next
time
they
went
to
Church
Sir
Thomas
himself
came
to
his
Ladies
Pew
,
and
said
,
Madam
,
my
Lord
is
gone
.
29.
In
Sir
Thomas
Moores
imprisonment
in
the
Tower
,
there
came
one
from
the
Court
,
for
to
perswade
Sir
Thomas
to
change
his
mind
before
he
died
,
of
those
things
which
he
stood
condemned
in
by
the
Law
,
and
Sir
Thomas
being
wearied
with
his
importanity
,
said
,
I
have
changed
my
mind
,
the
C●…tier
said
,
in
what
?
Sir
Thomas
replied
,
in
this
,
That
whereas
he
had
intended
to
be
s●…aven
,
that
he
might
appear
to
the
people
,
as
before
he
was
wo●…
,
now
he
was
fully
resolved
,
that
his
beard
should
take
such
part
as
his
head
did
.

Sir
Thomas
Pope
visiting
Sir
Thomas
Moore
in
his
imprisonment
was
very
sad
,
and
could
not
refrain
from
weeping
,
which
Sir
Thomas
Moore
seeing
,
to
put
him
out
of
his
melancholy
,
took
his
own
urinal
in
his
hand
,
and
casting
his
water
said
merrily
,
I
see
no
danger
,
but
that
this
man
(
meaning
himself
)
might
live
longer
if
it
had
pleased
the
King.
31.
Sir
Thomas
Moore
,
who
was
a
man
in
all
his
life
time
,
that
had
an
excellent
vein
in
jesting
a
little
before
,
and
at
his
death
delivered
himself
in
this
manner
coming
on
the
Scaffold
,
which
seemed
to
him
so
weak
,
that
it
was
ready
to
fall
,
he
said
merrily
to
the
Lieutenant
,
I
pray
you
Mr.
Lieutenant
,
see
me
safe
up
,
&
for
my
coming
down
,
let
me
shift
for
my self
;
and
to
the
Execaioner
,
he
said
,
pluck
up
thy
spirits
man
,
and
be
not
afraid
to
do
thine
office
,
my
neck
is
very
short
,
take
heed
therefore
thou
strike
not
away
for
saving
thine
honesty
:
and
at
the
very
instant
of
his
death
,
having
a
pretty
long
beard
,
after
his
head
was
upon
the
block
lift
it
up
again
,
and
gently
drew
his
beard
aside
,
and
said
,
that
that
had
never
committed
any
Treason
,
nor
in
the
least
offended
the
King
,
and
therefore
should
not
be
cut
off
:
and
thus
passed
Sir
Thomas
Moore
out
of
this
world
,
on
the
very
same
day
on
which
himself
had
most
desired
,
being
Saint
Thomas
day
,
in
the
year
of
our
Lord
,
1537.
