ANIMAD VERSIONS UPON Sr RICHARD BAKER'S CHRONICLE AND It 's CONTINUATION Wherein many Errors are discover'd and some Truths advanced By T. B. Esq Cicero de Orat. Prima est Historiae Lex ne quid falsi dicere audeat deinde ne quid veri non audeat OXON Printed by H. H. for Ric. Davis 1672. The PREFACE SInce Cronicles are the public Records of a Nation I wonder'd not a little to see Sr Rich Bakers twice Printed by it self and three times with a Continuation and no person learned in our History of England or concern'd in the actions of the late Rebellion or in the adulteration of his own or his Ancestors Name or Title should impugn it being stuff'd with so many contradictions and repetitions so many mistimings and mistakings as of other things of moment so especially of the Pedegrees Names and Place of our ancient Nobility Bishops Baronets Gentry c. For. Non ego paucis Offendor maculis And yet the wonder increased to see the Continuator a person as it appears of incompetent parts for so great an undertaking presume to dedicate a Work so many ways imperfect to the Kings most excellent Majestie of whom as Cicero said to Caesar nil vulgare dignum videre possit As I am conscious this Age affords many more knowing in our English History then my self so doubtless the publishing their Notions had been very necessary that the public Cronicle of our Nation might have had the true properties of a Record which are Vetustatis veritatis vestigia But finding in all this time no stop put to so great a stream of Error by any better Hand I thought my self oblig'd to lay these few Animadversions in the way lest such muddy waters should at last totally overflow the land of Truth Nor have I presumed herein to intermeddle with the affairs of State and those great revolutions in the raign of King CHARLES the first of ever blessed memory Though I am wel assured the Continuator has in many passages neither don right to His sacred Memory nor to those of his subjects who most faithfully serv'd Him For the Errors which slip'd Sr Rich. Bakers pen some Excuses may be assign'd as old Age and the confinement of a Prison c. but none for that his confident Assertion upon which the Continuator builds much in his Preface That this Cronicle was collected with so great care and diligence That if all other of our Cronicles should be lost this onely would be sufficient to inform posterity of all passages memorable and worthy to be known Sr Rich acknowledges his VVork to be a Collection out of other Author wherein he took up some Coin upon content which was not sterling and that wherein he onely excell'd was the digesting the whole into a better Method yet he confesses some Passages he might have said many are omitted in the reign of King James which was the tyme he liv'd in and had bin fit for the Continuator to have supply'd who instead thereof has sweld the Continuation into such a Bulk of indigested matter as is not at all sutable to the rest of the History Besides the many failings both of the Author and Continuator the Printer has with supine negligence added a grosse number of Errata's without any advertisement of them but leaving all upon the Authors account yet the understanding Reader wil for the most part discern which ought to be laid at the Authors Study dore and which at the Printers Case If particular information may be rely'd on we may ere long expect a compleater Cronicle of the Kings of England with a more exact and impartial account of the late Rebellion and the happy restauration of his Majesty from a Hand better qualified for such an undertaking Mean time these few leaves not taking in a Third of what is justly lyable to exception may help to rectify some of the Errors already printed and may contribute in some measure towards the observing a greater care and exactnesse in publishing Books of so general a concern in time to come Errors Committed in the printing PAg. 6. lin ult Auther for Author p. 10. l. 8. praefix'd for prefix'd p. 12. 25. l. 1.

He lived not til the year 1210 as may be seen in his Chronicle printed about xx years Since Asserius Menevensis Bishop of Salisbury 9. lived about the year 890. A gross mistake for no Bishops See was setled at Salisbury til after the Conquest There was indeed one Asserus Bishop of Sherburne Anno 880 and continued so but 4 years Osbertus a Benedictine Monk wrote 11. the life of For Osbernus Cantuariensis a Benedictine Monk and Chantor of Canterbury Culmanus Anglicus writ a Cronicle 12. and lived about the year 1040 He should have said Colemannus sapiens who flourished An. 1200. Gulielmus Gemetecensis lived Aº 1135. 13. He flourished in the year 1160. Ingulphus Abhot of Croyland lived 18 in the time of william the first He dyed in the year 1109 which was in the 9th year of Henry the first Turgotus an English man first Dean 19. of Durham c. lived in the year 1098. This Turgotus was not first Dean of Durham but Prior and is called in latin Authors Turgotus Dunelmensis He dyed An 1115. Gnalterus Mappaeus writ a book denugis 21. Curialium and lived about the Conquerors time His name is Mape Latin'd by writers Mapus His book in MS. is in the Bodleyan Library He flourished in the year 1210 long after the Conquerors time And I think his Book affords nothing for our Authors purpose Raradocus born in Wales 25. for Caradocus Lancarvanensis Gervasius Derobernensis lived about the year 1120. 26. Which should be 1200. Johannes Fiberius commonly called de Bever lived about the year 1110. 27.
This Iohannes Fiberius was otherwise called Castorius and flourished not til the later end of Edward the first 's time about the year 1306. Radulphus de Rizeto Which should be Radulphus de Diceto 45. and is mentioned before num 5. but this is the more proper place for him in point of time Thomas Spottey a Benedictine Frier 48. of Canterbury His name was Sport or Spot a Benedictine Monk Matthaeus Westmonasteriensis lived 49. about the year 1307 for 1377 Mathew Paris wrote a History 51. from Will 1. to the last year of Hen. 3. and lived about the time of K. Edward 3. Mistakes enough Math. Paris dyed many years before Edw 3. time viz. Aº 1259. To which year he brought down his History and after his death it was continued for some years by another Bartholomeus Anglicus wrote a 53. Cronicle of the Scots His right Sirname was Glanvile he did not write a Cronicle de Scotis but a History de Sanctis Alex. Essebiensis Prior of the monastery 55. of Regular Canons lived in the year 1360. By the word the we are to beleive there was but one Monastery of that Order of which there were many this Auther flourished in the year 1220. John Froyssart born in the Low Countrys writ a Cronicle ending 56. with Henry the 4th He was born at Hennault in Flanders His History ends in the year 1400 which is the first year of Hen. 4th Thomas Rodburn an English man 58. and a Bishop wrote a Cronicle and lived 1412. He was Bishop of St Davids but the Cronicle our Author aims at was written by another Thomas Rodburn a monk of Hide Abby who lived Ao. 1480. and is extant in M.S. in Lambeth Library John Trevisa born in Glocestershire 59. He was born in Cornwall John Capgrave born in Kent a Hermit 61. Friar He was an Augustin Friar of Canterbury John Lydgate Monk of St. Edmunds 62. bury lived in the year 1470. in the time of King Edw. the 4th He dyed in the year 1440 tempore Hen. 6. Doctor Goodwin Bishop of Hereford 78. wrote and lived in the time of Q. Eliz. He means Doctor Francis Godwin Bishop who lived in the time of K. James and K. Charles 1. and dyed Anno 1633. Doctor Heyward writ the History of 79. This was Sr John Heyward Knight Doctor of Law Thomas Cowper Bp of VVinchester 83. writ Chronicle notes of all Nations These notes were written by Tho Lanquet and onely continued for some years by Cowper Nicholas Harpsfeild hath written 88. a Chronicle of all the Bishops of England He wrote an Ecclesiastical History of England in folio but no such Cronicle of Bishops was ever before heard of John Speed a Londoner wrote 90. He was born in Ches-shire William Abington Esquire hath 91. written His name was Habington c. These Notes have been with some pains collected out of Leland Bale Pits and other Authors of good authority to shew the mistakes and anticronisms of our Author even in his first Effort who thinking to give a greater reputation to his Book has not without much suspition of vanity praefix'd a Catalogue of 93. Authors Ancient and Modern out of whom he saies his Chronicle is collected of which number it may justly be suspected he never saw above the one half otherwise he could not without great inadvertence so grosly have mistaken what is here noted Besides if his wine had bin good it would not have needed such a Bash ANIMADVERSIONS on the Catalogue of the Nobility Bishops Baronets c. BEfore we come to the Book it self the Continuator has thought fit to entertain the Reader with an Antipast consisting of a Catalogue of the Nobility Bishops and Baronets of England which is so ill cook'd that it must needs offend the understanding Readers stomac especially that dish of the Baronets Thomas Howard Duke of Norfolk Baron John Howard his Ancestor created Duke of Norfolk by King Rich. 3d July 4. 1483. whose ancestor Sr John Howard Knight was created a Baron in 1461. by King Edward 4. and afterwards by Richard 3. was created Duke June 28. 1483. If this were true there should be two Dukes of Norfolk and both Howards created by the same K. Rich within 7. daies one of another But this Baron John Howard and Sr Iohn Howard was one and the same person not created Baron but made so by Writ of Summons For thus Camden Iohn Lord Howard who was summond Brit. fol. 483. a Baron to Parliament by Edw. 4 was created Duke of Norfolk by Rich. 3d. and his son Thomas created Earle of Surry It is an ill proof of the Continuators skil in Heraldry thus to mistake the Pedegree of the Primier Peer of the Realm William Cavendish Duke of Baron Bolsomer twice for Bolsover Edward Fines Earle of Lincoln for Fiennes His true name is Clinton William Ley Earle of Marleburgh whose father James was created Earle Iames Ley was the first Earle Henry his son the 2d and Iames the 3d who was slain at Sea in the late war with the Dutch and leaving no issue the title went to his uncle William yet living Henry Germaine Earle of St Albans and Baron Germaine of St Edmundsbury should be Iermyn in both places Archbishops and Bishops Gilbert Shelden for Sheldon John Couzens for Cousin William Fuller consecrated Bishop of in Ireland add Limerick Aº 1663. Davies Bishop of Landaff add Francis BARONS Nevil Baron of Abergavenny created by King Harold the second A grosse mistake The rise of the Lord Bergavenny's honor was by writ of Summons and not by Patent of Creation VVilliam Beauchamp de Bergavenny was first called by writ in 16. Ric. 2d. And Edw. Nevile de Bergavenny was first Summond to Parliament in 29. Hen. 6. James Barfue Baron Norris for Bertue Smith Baron Carington of Worton in England and Viscount Carington of Barefore in Ireland which should be Baron of Wotton-VVawen in England and Viscount Berisford in Ireland William Widdington Baron Widdington for VViddrington John Freshville Baron Freshville and elsewhere Fretswell for Freschevile Thomas Windzor Baron Windzor for VVindesor The Lord Howard of Estrich for Escrick in severall places of the Continuation BARONETS In the Catalogue of Baronets about twenty are totally omitted divers are postpon'd from their true place whereby disputes have arisen touching precedency For say some what more obliging authority can you have in that behalfe Then the English Cronicle not considering that these Catalogu's are published without any licence or authority from the Kings at Armes the proper Registers Approvers and Judges herein Again many of these Baronets names are so grosly mistaken that the Reader had need be a little skilld in Divinails to raise a conjecture who are meant by them for Example num num  137 Sr. Iohn Hornet 184 Sr. VVill Skerington 323 Sr. Iohn Rarisly 468 Sr. Hugh Smithford 558 Sr. Charles Koyde c.

These were Sr Raph de Hengham and Sr Iohn Lovetot And where does our Author find those Courts ever called the Higher Bench and Lower Bench but Bancus Regis or Aula Regis and Bancus Communis XXIII In the 12th year of Edward the 1 in fol. 101. a the Quindenes of St Michael the Iustices Itinerants began to go their general Circuit This is a mistake for Camden saies King Henry the 2d sent some Cam.

Which Sr Edward Coke in his Institutes saies was in Hillary Terme 18 Edward 2d four years after And our Author omits a memorable part of the story That Cam. writes his name Harcla and that more truly when Judgment was pronounced against Sr Andrew his sword broken over his head and his spurs hewn of his heeles Sr Anthony Lucy the Judge said to him Andrew now art thou no Knight but a Knave XXV In Edward the 2 ds time digging the foundation of a work about Pauls f. 117 b were found more then one hundred heads of Oxen and Kine which confirmed the opinion That of old time it had bin the Temple of Jupiter and that there was the Sacrifice of Beasts St Pauls Church had of old been the Temple of Diana For See Cam. Brit. f. 426 in Doctors Commons anciently an appurtenant to that Temple there was a Chamber which retained the name of Diana's Chamber even til the late dreadful Conflagration And our ancient Historians write of Tauropolia Beef-head Sacrifices which were immolated to Diana in that Temple XXVI The Book called Domus Dei ib. which should be Domesday liber judiciarius as the learned Spelman asserts with good reason XXVII King Edward 2d was buried without any funeral Pomp in the Monastery f. 118 b. of St Peter at Glocester by the Benedictine Friers Monks he would have said For there never were any Benedictin Friers XXVIII Our Author tels us That John Sconer Iustice of the Bench among f. 122. b. others was committed to Prison by Edward 3. sub Aº 1339.

And in the Catalogue of Mayors and Sherifs at the end Robert Tichburn is placed Mayor in the year 1656. Which last is the truth for in 1658 Ireton was Mayor Now come we to the year 1659 f. 657. which takes up neer thirty leaves of paper and conteins more words though lesse substance than the seaven Kings Reigns next after the Cōquest of which the two first Henryes Reigned 70. years 'T is true that year comprehends several great Actions and in particular that greatest most happy and most memorable the restoring His sacred Majesty to His Crown and Dignity by the faithfull endeavours of the never-enough honoured General Monk after deservedly created Duke of Albemarle with the concurrence and assistance of many loyall subjects But that the relation of this Noble design and atchievment should be stuffed with so many perticular conferences placing and displacing petty Officers Letters Messages and Debates of private persons seems in most mens judgments very superfluous and not agreeable to the nature of a Chronicle which requires a more compendious method and properly admits of nothing common and trivial I shall endeavour says a late ingenious Historian with plain and Milton f. 3. lightsom brevity to relate well and orderly things worth the noting so as may best instruct and benefit them that read For allowing that prolix way of Chronologizing if all the memorable actions since the Conquest and there were many such had been thus perticularly expatiated 't is more then ptobable the Book would have bulk'd it self into three greater volums then Foxes Martyrs and burn'd the edge of most Readers patience in its perusal LXXXI Speaking of the Lords in Parliament f. 730. a. proclaiming his Majesty in the Palace yard 1660 he adds Mr Bish one of the Heralds and Mr Rily that officiated as King at Armes By this you would Judge Mr Bysshe not Bish to be som smal pursuivant at Armes who was in those times Garter principal King at Armes and both then and since a member of the house of Commons a person of worth and since Knighted by the name of Sr Edward Bysshe and Mr Rily was but Norroy and much his inferior both in quality and literature LXXXII In the 4th Edition our Continuator f. 807. says Knights of the Bath are never made but at a Coronation Now he has better bethought himselfe and says Likewise in order to their attendance f. 758. a. upon this grand solemnity the Coronation there were created 68 Knights of the Holy Trinity called Knights of the Bath they being a Society of Knights never made but at a creation of a Prince of Wales or Duke of York Our Continuator has given these Knights of the Bath a new title For they were never til now called Knights of the Holy Trinity And he might have found in Mr Seldens Titles of Honor and Camdens Brit. f. 172. Britannia That Knights of the Bath have also been made at Royal Marriages Christning or Knighting the Prince or other of the Kings Sons and such like occasions Note likewise that the Foundations of the Colleges of the the Universities especially of Oxford are for the most part mistaken either in the point of time or names of the Founders Which I attempted not alwaies to rectify both in that it cxceeded my skil but cheifly because the History of that University as I am informed is now in the Presse Which will cleer those mistakes with much certainty and satisfaction being perform'd by the hand of that Faithfull and most industrious Searcher of Antiquities Mr Anthony Wood of Merton College Nonsences and false Syntax The last King was Oswald after f. 6. b. whom Egbert being in a sort the fountain of f. 18. a those which at this day we term the Common of Lawes Nor he kept not his word twice f. 34. b in the same page such as one as in this Kings time f. 89. b brake out most loathsome He would come with power to f. 86. b aid the King take order for guarding the Ports which intend to hinder his landing but finding The Viscount Montacute marcheth f. 204. b. towards King Henry and by the way encountreth the Lord Hungerford at Hegley Moor but he with Lord Basse upon the charge ran away leaving Sr Raph Darcy alone with his own Regiment who were valiantly fighting dyed To utter the impoverishing Of f. 83. a the Kingdome And here they bind the King to f. 86. a lose to their loyal obedience whensoever he infringed this Charter But he with Lord Basse ran away f. 204. b.
