A13781	A true and strange discourse of the trauailes of two English pilgrimes what admirable accidents befell them in their iourney to Ierusalem, Gaza, Grand Cayro, Alexandria, and other places: also what rare antiquities, monuments, and notable memories (concording with the ancient remembrances in the holy Scriptures), they saw in Terra Sancta, with a perfect description of the old and new Ierusalem, and scituation of the countries about them. A discourse of no lesse admiration; then well worth the regarding: written by one of them, on the behalfe of himselfe, and his fellowe pilgrime.	Timberlake, Henry, d. 1626.	1603 (1603)	STC 24079; ESTC S119224	21,670	30

shewed vs was the place iudiciall next the house of Veronica sancta and demanding of them what Saint that was they told me it was shee that did wipe our Sauiours face as he passed by in his agonie Descending a little lower in the same street they shewed mee the way which our Sauiour went to crucifying called by them Via dolorosa Then on the right hand in the same street I was showne the house of the rich glutton at whose gate poore despised Lazarus lay Holding on our way downe this streete wee came to a turning passage on the left hand whence they tolde me Simon Sirenus was comming toward the Dolorous way when the Soldiours seeing him called him and compeld him against his will to helpe our Sauiour to carie his crosse Then they told mee that in the same place the people wept when Christ answering said vnto them Oh daughters of Ierusalem weepe not for mee c. Next they shewed me the Church where the virgine Marie fell into an agonie when Christ passed by carying his Crosse. Afterward they brought mee to Pilates Palace which though it be all ruinated yet is there an olde Arche of stone which is still maintained by the Christians and it standing full in the high way wee passed vnder it much like the way of passage vnder master Hammons house in the Bulwarke but that the Arch is higher for vpon that Arche is a Gallerie which admitteth passage ouer our heads from one side of the streete to the other for Pilates Palace extended ouer the high way on both sides and Pilate had two greate windowes in the saide Gallerie to gaze out both waies into the streete as master Hammon hath the like aduantage at both his windowes Into this Gallery was our Sauiour brought when hee was showen vnto the Iewes and they standing belowe in the street heard the words of Ecce homo A little from this place is the foote of the staires where our Sauiour did first take vp his Crosse. Then they brought mee to the place where the virgine Marie was conceiued and borne which is the Church of Saint Anna and no Turkish Church Next they shewed me the Poole where Christ cleansed the Leapers and then guiding mee to Saint Stephens gate a little without it vpon the left hand they shewed mee the stone wheron S. Stephen was stoned From hence I sawe the staires going vp to porte Aurea at which porte are diuers reliques to be seen it was the East gate of the Temple which Salomon built vpon mount Moria in which Temple was the place of Sanctum Sancterum but now in that place is builded a goodly greate Church belonging to the Turkes Thus spent I the second day being the 26. of March all within the gates of Ierusalem except my going to see the stone wherewith S. Stephen was stoned The next day being the 27. of March hauing done our dutie to God and the Pater Guardian we hyred Asses for the Friers and the Trouchman to ride on and going foorth the citie gates we mounted and rode directly toward Bythinea By the way as we rode they shewed me the place of the fruitlesse Fig-tree which Christ cursed next the Castle of Lazarus that Lazarus whome Christ loued so well for his house or Castle is in Bythinea but it is vtterly ruinated and nothing to be seene but the two sides of a wall In the same towne they shewed me the house of Marie Magdalen but al so ruinated that nothing is left of it but a piece of a wall there I sawe likewise Marthaes house consisting of three pieces of a wall and thence they brought me to the stone where the two sisters tolde Christ that Lazarus was deade from whence passing on they shewed me the place where our Sauiour raised Lazarus from death after he had lien three daies in the ground and where he was buried afterward when he died This place hath bin not ably kept from the beginning and is repaired still by the Christians but yet in poore and very bare sort and this is all that I saw in Bythinia Frō hence we rode vnto Mount Oliuet passing by Bethphage they brought me to the place where our Sauiour tooke the Asse and Colte when he rode to Ierusalem vpon Palme Sunday Riding from Bethphage directly to the North wee came to the foote of Mount Oliuet where they shewed me the place Benedicta of the virgin Maries Annunciation and ascending to the top of the Mount wee saw the place of our Sauiours Ascension at the sight whereof we said our Prayers and were commaunded withal to say 5. Pater nosters and 5. Aue Maries but we said the Lords praier tooke notice of the place and departed This is the very highest parte of Mount Oliuet and hence may be discerned many notable places as first West from it is the prospect of the new Cittie of Ierusalem Southwest from it may be seene the prospect of Mount Sion which is adioyning to new Ierusalem also in the valley betweene Sion and the mount whereon I stood I sawe the brooke Cedron the Poole Silo the Garden wherein our Sauiour praied the place where afterward he was betrayed and diuers other notable things in this valley of Gethsemanie as the Tombe of Absolon king Dauids sonne the Tombe of Iehoshaphat and others which I will speake of as I come to them Full South frō mount Oliuet I could see the places we came last from as all Bythinia and Bethphage also East North-east from this mount may be scene both the riuer of Iordan which is some 15. miles off and Iericho which is not so farre because it is to the Westward of Iordan From mount Oliuet East and East-South-east may be seene the lake of Sodome and Gomorrha which is some 100. miles long 8. miles ouer all these places I set with the Compasse when I was on mount Oliuet for I staied on the top of it some two houres and a halfe hauing a little Compasse about me Descending hence toward the foote Westward wee came to a place where the Friers told me that a woman called S. Pelagia did penaunce in the habit of a Frier whereat I smiling they demaunded why I did so I answered that to beleeue Pelagia was a Saint stood out of the compasse of my Creede they tolde me when I should come home at night they would shew me sufficient Authours for it but when I came home I had so much to doo in writing my notes out of my table bookes that I had no leysure to vrge their Authours for S. Pelagia By this time they brought vs to the place where our Sauiour did foresee the iudgement then where he made the Pater noster and then where the Apostles made the Creede From hence wee came to the place where Christ wept for Ierusalem thence to the place where the virgin Marie gaue the gyrdle to S. Thomas and then to the place where she prated for S. Stephen all these last
