Eliz. at her first entrance to her Reigne an 1558. It was not spoken but delivered in writing to her by a certain noble Man The beginning of it is Albeit there be innumerable gifts c. He also wrot a little book in favour of the house of Suffolk especially of the Children of Edw. Seymour Earl of Hertford eldest Son of Edward Duke of Somerset who was married to the Lady Cath. Grey Dau. of Hen. Duke of Suff. of near alliance in blood to the Queen in his house in Chanon row within the City of Westminster in Oct. 1560. The effect of which was to derive the title of the Crown of England in case Qu. Eliz. should die without issue to the house of Suffolk This Marriage notwithstanding the Archb. of Cant. did by his sentence pronounce unlawful yet our Author Hales who was esteemed a Man very opiniotive tho otherwise very learned did maintain in the said book that their sole consent did legitimate their conjunction Which pamphlet flying abroad came straight way to the Court Whereupon the Queen and the Nobles being highly offended the Author was quickly discovered and forthwith imprison'd in the Tower of London Soon after Sir Nich. Bacon then Lord Keeper was presumed to have had a finger in it for which he was like to have lost his office if Sir Ant. Browne who had been L. Ch. Justice of the Common-pleas in Qu. Maries time would have accepted of it which her Majesty offer'd to him and the Earl of Leycester earnestly exhorted him to take it but he refused it for that he was of a different Religion from the State and so Sir Nic. Bacon remained in his place at the great instance of Sir Will. Cecill afterwards L. Treasurer who tho he was to be privy to the said book yet was the matter so wisely laid upon Hales and Bacon that Sir Will. was kept free thereby to have the more authority and grace to procure the others pardon as he did Soon after Jo. Lesley Bishop of Ross a great creature of Mary Queen of Scots did answer that Book for which he got the good will of many tho of others not As for our Author Hales he gave way to fate on the fifth of the calends of January in Fifteen hundred seventy and two year 1571 whereupon his body was buried in the Chancel of the Church of St. Peter's poor in London He died without issue so that his estate which chiefly laid in Warwickshire of which his principal house in Coventry call'd Hales place otherwise the White Fryers was part went to John Son of his Brother Christopher Hales sometimes also an Exile at Frankfort whose posterity doth remain there to this day ELIZE HEYWOOD sometimes written Ellis Heewood Son of Job Heywood the famous Epigrammatist was born in London and by the indulgence of his Father was carefully educated in juvenile learning in that City and in Academical in Oxon. In 1547 he was elected Probationer-Fellow of Allsouls Coll. where spending some time in Logicals and Philosophicals he applyed his genie to the study of the Laws in which faculty he took one degree an 1552 being the sixth year of K. Ed. 6. Afterwards he travelled into France and Italy continued for some time at Florence being patroniz'd by Card Pole and became such an exact Master of the Italian tongue that he wrot a book in that Language entituled Il Moro lib. 2. Fiorenz 1556 in octavo This book which is dedicated to the said Cardinal contains a discourse fancied to be in the house of Sir Tho. More sometimes L. Chanc. of England and in consolation with him Besides this book he wrot as 't is said other things in Italian or in Lat. or in his mother tongue which being printed beyond the Sea we seldom or never see them in these parts About that time our Author receiving instructions concerning matters of faith from an English Man called Hall he went into the Low Countries and at Antwerp performed the office of Preacher and Prefectship of the spirit Thence he went to Lovaine where he died in the twelfth year after his ingress into the society of Jesus year 1572 which was about Fifteen hundred seventy and two He had a younger brother named Jasper bred also in Oxford and leaving the Nation for Religion sake entred himself into the said Society as I shall tell you under the Year 1597. num 295. NICHOLAS GRIMALD or Grimoald received his first being in this world in Huntingdonshire and his first Academical education in Christs Coll. in Cambridge where taking the Degree of Bach. of Arts went to Oxon and was incorporated there in the said Degree in Apr. 1542. In the next month he was chosen Probationer Fellow of Merton Coll. he being then in the 23 year of his age In 1544 he proceeded in Arts and 1547 when the Coll. of King Hen. 8. was to be settled and replenished with Students he was put in there as a Senior or Theologist accounted then only honorary and the rather for this reason because he about that time did read a publick Lecture to the Academians in the large refectory of that place All that I have yet seen of his writings are these Archipropheta Tragedia jam recens in lucem edita Colon. 1548. in oct Oratio ad Pontifices Londini in aede Paulina an 1553. 17.

JOHN BOND Bondius a most noted critick in Greek and Latin learning of his time was born in Somersetshire educated in Grammaticals in Wykehams School near Winton became a Student in this University about the nineteenth year of his age an 1569. took a degree in Arts 4 years after being either one of the Clerks or Chaplains of New coll and much noted for his proficiency in Academical learning In 1579. he proceeded in Arts and had soon after the Mastership of the Free-School of Taunton St. Maryâ— Madg. in his own Country conferred on him by the Warden and Society of New coll At which place continuing many years he did exercise such an admirable way of teaching that many departed thence so excellently well grounded in humane learning that they proved afterwards eminent either in Church or State At length being in a manner worn out with the drudgery of a School he did for diversion I cannot say profit practice Physick tho he had taken no degree in that Faculty in this University and became at length Chief Secretary to the Lord Chancellour of England Egerton if one of his admirers may be credited As for his writings which are used by the Juniors of our Universities and in many Free-Schools and more admired and printed beyond the Seas than in England they are these Commentarii in Poemata Q.

Johns coll where he took the degree of Bach. of Civ Law Afterwards he was made a Lecturer in the City of Exeter and carried himself conformable for a season But when the times turned in 1641. and he saw that the Puritan began to be uppermost then did he Preach very seditiously and published what he had said under this title A door of Hope Also holy and loyal activity Two Treatises delivered in several Sermons in Exeter The first on Psal. 126. 1 2. and the other on Exod. 17. 11. Lond. 1641. qu. Both which do contain most scandalous and rebellious stuff besides what he preached in a Serm. in the said City before the Deputy-Lievtenants Lond. 1643. qu. So that having thus began his pranks and shewed himself a zealous Brother for the Cause and a rank Covenanteer he was made Preacher or Minister of the Savoy in the Strand near London in the place of Joh. White before-mentioned when he passed over the water to Lambeth to take possession of the Rectory there belonging to Dr. Dan. Featly one of the Assembly of Divines and about that time Doctor of the Laws This J. Bond by the way you must know being scarce warm in the Pulpit but he began to threaten Heaven with some of his Divinity by telling the auditory with great zeal that they ought to contribute and pray and do all they were able to bring in their Brethren of Scotland for the setling of Gods Cause I say this is Gods Cause and if ever God had any Cause this is it and if this be not Gods Cause then God is no God for me but the Devil is got up into Heaven c. About the same time he became a frequent Preacher before the Long-Parliament and hath 3 or more Sermons preached before the Members thereof published as 1 Salvation in a mystery c. on Jer. 45. 25.

Lond. 1648. qu. preached on the 19. Jul. 1648. In which year he had a Serm. published intit Grapes among Thornes preached before the H. of Commons In all which Sermons as in others which he delivered in London and Westminster are contained many strange positions rebellious doctrines religious cantings and I know not what About that time he was made Master of Trinity hall in Cambridge which Mr. Jo. Selden refused and in 1654. he was made an assistant to the Commissioners of Middlesex and Westminster for the ejection of such whom they then called scandalous and ignorant Ministers and Schoolmasters These things I thought
acknowledgement of his Supremacy in this Realm would be in danger and in the 25. of the said King was judgment given on his behalf for taking place before the Lord Dcres of Gilsland His younger Years were adorned with all kind of superficial Learning especially with Drammatick Poetry and his elder with that which was divine and therefore worthily characterized to be vir liter is clarus ac genere nobilitate conspicus His writings have been Several Comedies and Tragedies Declaration of the Psalm 94.

After he had taken the Degrees in Arts he gave himselfe solely up to Divinity and in that faculty he became a noted Disputant On the 2. of Nov. 1501. he was admitted to the rectory of Bledon in the of Wells on the death of Mr. Micb. Clyffe and afterwards took the Degrees in Divinity In 1508. he by the favour of Edm. Audley B. of Sarum was collated to the Prebendship of Bedmyster and Redclyve having a little before been admitted Preb. of Lyme and Halstock in the said Church This E. Powell was the Person who for his great learning and undaunted courage was entertained as an Advocate by Qu. Catherine when K. Hen. 8. sought cause for a divorce from her and the same who before had shewed himself very zealous in disputing and writing against M. Luther his Disciples and Doctrine for which the University of Oxon did not only congratulate him for his pains but also in an Epistle to the said Bishop Audley they thus honorably speak of him res ea Oxoniensium quorundam ingeniis discutienda permittitur inter quos eximius ille Edoardus Powell Theologiae condidatus tuae Sarisburiensis Ecclesiae ut vocant Canonicus connumeratus est Is enim ex quo res primum in Literarium certamen venit tam assiduus semper fuit tantum operae ac diligentiae impendit tam denique eruditè adversus eas hereses invectus est ut ex suis immensis laboribus vigilantissimisque studiis nostrae Academiae nonnihil attribui laudis facile auguramur c.

Another Book of his making is intit Tract de non dissolvendo Henrici Regis cum Catherinâ matrimonio lib. 1. and other matters as 't is probable but such I have not yet seen At length for his denial of the King's Supremacy over the Church of England whereby he despleased him far more than before he pleas'd him by writing against Luther he was committed to Prison and having received sentence to dye was on the 30.

The birth of this most noble Person was as a learned Author reports at Stoverton Castle in Staffordshire or as another who was a Forreigner tells us but false as I presume at London in the Month of March 1500. His education in Grammatical learning was partly in the Carmes House commonly called White Friers in the North suburb of Oxon and his Academical in the Coll. of St. Mary Magdalen where continuing for some time he was admitted to the reading of any of the Logical Books of Aristotle that is to the Degree of Bach. of Arts an 1515. In which year he supplicated the venerable Congregation of Regents that he might wear panni pretiosi and pellurae pretiosae and be admitted to enter into the Library How long he tarried in that Coll. after he had taken his Degree or whether he took the Degree of Master of Arts or a Degree in any other faculty it appears not in our Registers In the Year 1517. March 19. he was made Prebendary of Roscombe in the Church of Salisbury in 1519. Apr. 10. Preb. of Yatminster secunda in the said Church and on the 14 of Feb. 1523 he was admitted Fellow of Corp. Chr. College by command from the founder Which place I presume he never enjoyed being then absent if not happily Dean of Winbourne Minster in Dorsetshire from whence he was promoted to be Dean of Exeter Afterwards his life being chiefly spent in Italy he became by the favour of the Pope Cardinal of St. Nereus and Achilleus afterwards of St. Mary in Cosmedin and at length of St. Prisca was employed also by him in several Embassies to the French King and to the Emperor and lastly after the said Popes death Paul 3. he was in the Conclave of Cardinals chose twice by them to succeed him an 1549. But he upon some account refusing both the elections craved license to depart unto a certain Monastery in the Territory of Verona there to spend the remainder of his days To which place afterwards retiring he exercis'd himself for some years in great devotion and retiredness At length the news of K. Edw. death being brought of him and that Qu. Mary had obtained the Crown he procured of P. Julius 3. license to be sent his Legat into England to reconcile that Nation to the Romish See and the rather for this cause that being not in holy orders tho a Cardinal he might be in a capacity being one of the three that were named to marry the Queen Soon after coming into England the Queen being then married he was elected Chancellour of this University and was made Archb. of Canterbury in the place of Cranmer to which he was consecrated 22. March 1555. being about that time invested with the Temporalities of that See and kept it to his dying day He was a Person of great learning eloquence and judgment of singular piety charity and exemplary life as several Writers tell us who add also that he was an excellent Canonist and well read in the Laws of ecclesiastical polity as may partly be seen in the Books written by him which are these Pro unitate ecclesiastica ad Hen. 8.

Vniv. Oxon. lib. 2. p. 152. b. His posterity do live at this day at Ducklington near to Witney in Oxfordshire some of whom have been Justices of the Peace for the said County FRANCIS PUCCIUS Filidinus was born of the noble and renowned family of the Puccii at Florence from which had sprung before his time three Cardinals educated from his Childhood in good Letters and in the R. Cath. Religion exercis'd the trade of Merchandize at Lyons where many differences and disputes arising concerning Religion which were not then quite sopited our Author Puccius who was only a Spectator laid aside his trade and totally applied himself to the study of Sacred Letters to the end that he might perfectly understand the grounds of his belief and what was professed by the Protestants At length being satisfied in Conscience that those of the Ro. Church were in an errour he left France and Italy retired into England and being seemingly a Protestant he went to the University of Oxon got himself thro commendations of his sincerity to be entred into a Coll. or Hall wherein he studied Philosophy and Divinity very severely and took the degree of Master of Arts an 1574. About which time maintaining certain opinions contrary to those of the Grandees of the said University which were Calvinistical especially de fide in dcum quae qualis sit had many private disputes with Theologists there and at length publick Which disputes being altogether displeasing to them who esteemed them ridiculous and the author no better than an arrogant and an opinionative person they found means to remove him from the University much about the same time that he was endeavouring to be a Theol. or Catechistical Lecturer lest his Doctrine should take root among the juniors For at that time they being very zealous for a thro Reformation were jealous of all strangers that came among them and particularly of him whom they well knew to have been a zealous Papist and then no well-grounded Protestant From Oxford he went to London had several disputes there also and became acquainted with Ant. Corrano who living about that time in Oxon also his person could never be well relisht among them Afterwards Puccius went to Basil in Germany upon the invitation of Francisc Bettus a Roman then living there where meeting also with Faustus Socirus they had many discourses concerning the adventures of 〈◊〉 England and at length had several disputes 〈◊〉 himself with which he seeming 〈◊〉 Puccius wrote ten arguments de 〈…〉 primi hominis ante peccatum All which being answered by Socinus were by him with several disputations that had passed between them made publick Afterwards Puccius was forced to leave Basil because he had printed certain Theses to be disputed on in which he asserted universum humanum genus in ipso matris utero efficaciter particeps esse beneficiis Christi vitae immortalis beatae c. Whereupon he went into England and so to London where he began to publish his paradoxical opinions and that with such confidence as if Orpheus like he meant to charm all to follow him but his waters being narrowly watch'd he was seiz'd on imprison'd and suffered several calamities otherwise Oxford would have once more tasted of his Doctrine Afterwards being let loose he went into Flanders and Holland where he corresponded by Letters with Socinus From Holland he went to Antwerp where he did the like and had several cavilling disputes not only with such that he esteemed heterodox but with those of his own opinion Thence he removed to Cracaw in Poland where he had frequent disputes with the Jesuits and others nay and with some of his own perswasion Socinus being there also and wrote several matters in the Italian Tongue against the Church of Rome in 1585. While he continued in the said City of Cracaw it hapned that he became acquainted with two persons that had come to that place with Albertus Alaskie Prince or Vaywood of Sirad when he left England Their names were John Dee and Edward Kelley Magicians who having partly known Puccius in England did entertain and admit him into their secrets with great hope of some good to be done by his fellowship and in August the same year he was actually with them at Prague in Bohemia to which place they conveyed him while certain Spirits appeared to them Kelley being then Seer and d ee an observer or writer down of what was said by the Spirits and Kelley's seeing and interpreting At length Puccius did not deal truely and sincerely with them which much troubled Dee and thereupon he desired to be rid of him Puccius therefore perceiving it wrote a large and submissive Letter to the said Dee and Kelly and among other things gave him a very punctual account of what had passed between Philip Bishop of Placentià who was sent by the Pope as his Nuncio to have the said Magicians banished or else sent to Rome and himself concerning their cause apparitions high attempts c. But so it was that whither by the perswasions of the said Nuncio or some things utter'd by the Spirits that all the World should at length come to the Church of Rome he forthwith recanted before certain Rom. Priests and became a zealous Papist and at length a Priest All that I have seen of his works besides what are already mentioned are De Christi Salvatoris efficacitate in omnibus singulis hominibus quatenus homines sunt assertio Catholica c. Goudae 1592. oct Ded. to P. Clem. 8. Epistola ad Jo. Dee Edw. Kelly Dat. at Prag 15. Cal. oct 1585. 'T is a large Epistle in Latin and is the same with the submissive Letter before mentioned After the year fifteen hundred and ninty two he went to Rome and became Secretary to Cardinal Pompeius Arragon from whom he expected great matters but death snatching him untimely away in the midst of his aspiring thoughts about the year 1600 was buried in the Church of St.

Jewell being then a candidate of the Fac. of Theology Afterwards he went to Rome and in 1568. he was with his Brother or near Kinsman admitted into the Society of Jesus Whereupon because a way had not then been opened for the Jesuits into England he went into Germany to perform offices pertaining to his Order But being initiated in the Priesthood before his ingress into the Society and having performed the office of Confessor in the place of one Hall was sent to Auspurge and at length became Rector of the coll of Jesuits at Ingolstadt He hath written Confutation of a Sermon pronounced by Mr. Jewell at Paul's Cross Antw. 1564.

THOMAS WILLIAMS a Welsh-man born did spend several years among the Oxonians but whether in Brasenose coll where one of both his Names took the degree of Master of Arts in 1573. I cannot tell Afterwards he entred on the Physick line but took no degree in that Faculty retired into his Country and practiced there This person who was also a curious Critick in his mother-tongue wrote Dictionarium Latino-Britannicum A work of many years labour which being left imperfect in some places was reviewed and corrected by Dr. Jo. Davies and by him published in 1632. who tells us that he said Williams was much encouraged in his studies by the Father of Sir RichWynne Knight and Baronet to whom he did intend to dedicate had he lived to have finished it He tells us also that the said Th. Williams was living and in great renown in his own Country in sixteen hundred but when he died he adds not I find another Tho. Williams who was elected Probat Fellow of Merton coll in 1562. studied Physick several years took the degree of Bach. of that Faculty in 1575. and died in his coll 1579. being then accounted a learned Physician But this person was no author and whether a Welsh-man I cannot yet find A third Tho.

HENRY CUFF a most excellent Grecian is said by an Historian of no great note to be base by Birth meaning I presume that his birth was mean If so then let it be known from the Records in the Coll. of Arms that his birth was gentile in Sommersetshire that his Predecessors for 4 Generations before him lived at Creech near to Taunton in the said County in good esteem and that his Ancestor Joh. Cuff who lived sometimes at Ilchester and sometimes at Creech where he had good inheritances had a Coat of Arms granted to him and his posterity by Christop Barker Garter King of Arms 36.

Pope and two years after was not only made Master-Fellow but also M. of A. In which time he occasionally shewed himself a rare Grecian Philosopher and Disputant Afterwards he was Greek Professor and Proctor of the University and at length Secretary to that unfortunate Count Robert Earl of Essex As he was a person of good parts so was he ambitious withal and pretended to be well seen in the rules of Policy believed by many that he was so because smothered under the habit of a Scholar especially by his great Patron which brought him the sooner to the block He wrote in the year 1600 The differences of the ages of man's life Lond. 1607. and 1633. in oct The original causes progress and end of Man's life Printed with the former book and other things which he left fit for the Press but never published Afterwards he being found guilty of Treason for conspiring with the said Rob.

Among several Records in the Prerogative-office I once saw the last Will and Test of one John Barlow Clerk of Chiddingfield in Surrey which was proved 26. May 1641. the Testator having some weeks before been dead but whether this John Barlow be the same with the former Joh. Barlow who was the writer I cannot justly say nor whether he be the same with Joh. Barlow M. of Arts who in Sept. 1620. became Prebendary of Wivelscomb in the Church of Wells on the resignation of Will. Barlow The said Joh. Barlow of Chiddingfield doth mention his Brethren Edward Raphe Laurence William and Rob. Barlow FRANCIS GODWIN a passing great lover of venerable antiquity and of all good literature Son of Thom. Godwin D. D. sometimes Bishop of B. and Wells was born at Hannington in Northamptonshire 4. of Q. Elizabeth elected Student of Ch. Ch. in 1578. took the degrees in Arts holy Orders and became Rector of Samford-Orcais in Somersetshire Prebendary of S. Decuman in the Church of Wells Residentiary there and Vicar of Weston in Zoyland in the same County which last he resigning became Vicar of Bishops Lidiard in 1595. being then Sub-dean of Exeter and about that time Doctor of Divinity In the year 1601. he was nominated to the See of Landaff by Q. Elizabeth to which being consecrated 22. Nov. the same year sate there about 16 years being a Bishoprick rather proportionated to his modesty than merits because much impaired by one of his Predecessors named Anth. Kitchin alias Dunstan whom I shall elsewhere mention and therefore had liberty allowed to him to keep one of his Dignities in Commendam with it and to take upon him the Rectory of Kingston-Scymour in the Dioc. of Wells Afterwards for the respect that K. James had for him and his learning he gave him the Bishoprick of Hereford to which he was translated the tenth and confirmed the 28. of Nov. an 1617. and kept it to his dying day He was a good Man a grave Divine skilful Mathematician excellent Philosopher pure Latinist and incomparable Historian being no less critical in Histories than the learned Selden A person also he was so celebrated by many in his time whether at home or beyond the Seas that his memory cannot otherwise but be precious in succeeding ages for his indefatigable pains and travel in collecting the succession of all the Bishops of England and Wales since the first planting of the Gospel among the Christians nor pretermitting such of the British Church or any that have been remembred by the care and diligence of preceeding writers or had been kept in memory in any old monument or record But as he hath in those his infinite labours endeavoured out of a Puritanical peak to bring a scandal on the ancient Cath. Bishops and to advance the credit of those that were married since the Reformation he being one of that number for the credit of the Protest cause so comes one afterwards by name W. Prynne the most inveterate Enemy to the Bishops that ever appeared in our Horizon who thence from his labours takes all advantages whether truth or not truth to raise arguments against or bring a scandal upon the prelatical function Take heed therefore of being partial lest others light Candles from your Torch and thereby in the end you lend a helping hand for the cutting your own Throat But to return to give therefore our author Godwin a farther character as I have received it from his Son he was esteemed a good preacher and a strict liver but so much employed in his studies and matters of Religion that he was as 't were a stranger to the world and the things thereof His works are these Concio Lat. in Luc. 5. 3.

refectory at what time the said Doctor was returned from Salisbury after he had been installed Dean thereof an 1635. The said Pastoral is not printed but goes about in MS. from hand to hand Dr. Speed who was by all persons that knew him accounted an ingenious man year 1640 died in the month of May in sixteen hundred and forty and was buried in the Chappel of S. John's coll leaving then behind him a Son named Samuel who was aftera Student of Ch. Ch. and M. of A. installed Canon of the said Church on the death of Dr. Seb. Smith on the sixth day of May 1674. and another named John afterwards Fellow of St. John's coll and Doctor of Physick living now at Southampton THOMAS FITZHERBERT Son of Will. Fitzherbert by Isabell his Wife Daughter and one of the heirs of Humph. Swinnerton of Swinnerton in Staffordshire fourth Son of Sir Anth. Fitzherbert Knight the famous Lawyer Son of Ralph Fitzherbert of Norbury in Derbyshire was born in the said County of Stafford an 1552. in which County being initiated in Grammer learning was sent either to Exeter or Lincoln coll in 1568 But having been mostly before trained up in the Cath. Religion the college seemed uneasie to him for tho he would now and then hear a Sermon which he was permitted to do by an old Roman Priest that then lived abscondedly in Oxon for to him he often retired to receive instructions as to matters of Religion yet he would seldom or never go to prayers for which he was often admonished by the Sub-Rector of his house At length he seeming to be wearied with the heresie as he stil'd it of those times he receeded without a degree to his Patrimony where also refusing to go to his parish Church was imprison'd about 1572. But being soon after set at liberty he became more zealous in his Religion defended it against the Protestant Ministers and not only confirm'd and strengthned many wavering Catholicks therein but wrote also several valid reasons for the not going of Catholicks to Protestant Churches for which being like to suffer he withdrew and lived abscondedly In 1580. when Campian and Persons the Jesuits came into the mission of England he retired to London found them out shew'd himself exceeding civil and exhibited to them liberally Whereupon bringing himself into a promunire and foreseeing great danger to come on him and all Catholicks he went as a voluntary exile into France an 1582. where he continued a zealous sollicitor in the cause of Mary Queen of Scots with the K. of France and Duke of Guise for her relief tho in vain After her decollation and all hopes of the Catholicks frustrated for the present he left that Country and the rather because that he about that time had buried his Wife and forthwith went into Spain For some years there he became a zealous agitator in the Royal Court for the relief of Catholicks and their Religion in England but his actions and the labours of many more of that nature being frustrated by the Spaniards repulse in 1588. he under pretence of being weary with the troubles and toyles of this life receeded to Millaine with the Duke of Feria Whence after some continuance there he went to Rome where he was initiated in sacred Orders took a lodging near to the English college and observed all hours and times of Religion as they in the college did by the sound of their bell and there composed certain books of which that against Machiavel was one A certain author of little or no note named James Wadsworth tells us that the said Tho. Fitzherbert had been before a Pensioner and Spye to the King of Spain in France and his service being past and his pension failing him out of pure necessity he and his man were constrained to turn Jesuits or else starve And he being a worthy Scholar and a great Politician was very welcome to that Order But let this report remain with the author who is characteriz'd by a Protestant writer to be a Renegado proselyte-Turncote of any Religion and every trade now living 1655. a common hackney to the basest Catch-pole Bayliffs c. while I proceed In 1613-4 he took upon him the habit of the Society of Jesus on the feast of the Purification initiated therein on the vigil of the Annuntiation following and on the next day he sung his first Mass Afterwards he presided the mission at Bruxells for two years and at length much against his will he was made Rector of the English coll or seminary at Rome which he governed with great praise about 22. years He was a person of excellent parts had a great command of his tongue and pen was a noted Politician a singular lover of his Country men especially those who were Catholicks and of so graceful behaviour and generous spirit that great endeavours were used to have him created a Cardinal some years after Allens death and it might have been easily effected had he not stood in his own way He hath written A defence of the Catholick cause containing a Treatise in confutation of sundry untruths and slanders published by the Hereticks c.
