times the contrary was deliuered to him the Iurie passed vppon him founde him guilty of high Treason whereupon he was sent away till the time of Iudgement which because it was not til Wednesday following it shall not be much differing from our purpose to handle and say somewhat in the meane while concerning the tryall and conuiction of Humphrey Lloyde endicted there vpon Wilfull Murder hauing slaine Master Thomas Morris one of the ordinary yeamen of his Maiest Guarde not long before in Chauncery-Lane Vpon Sunday in the afternoone being the 18. of Ianuary the forenamed Humphry Lloyd and Thomas Morris meeting together in Aldersgate streete in the companie of certaine other of theyr friendes went into the halfe Moone Tauerne to drink where they had no plenty of such Wine as to cause distemper or otherwise that way to procure impatience But it was deliuered in euidence that some speeches concerning Religion passed beetweene them wherein Morris touched Lloyd to be a dissembler as neither hot nor cold but if any thing at all it was indeed best affected to Popery as afterwarde it plainely appeared It happened that the lie was retorted between them which vrged Morris to cast a cuppe of Wine in Lloyds face and Lloyd thereupon threwe a Rowle of bread at the head of Morris A further and more dangerous strife had presently ensued but that honest frends on both sides beeing present did so discreetely deale with them that they grew friends againe drank to one another and no hart-burning outwardly perceiued till at the length Lloyd renewing remembrance of the former speeches a more heauier falling out had thereon hapned but that the friendes as before pacified them again but yet menacing words passed from eyther Morris threatning to bee ●uen w t Lloyds bald pate and Lloyd woulde try acquittance with the others Cods-heade so that they parted with tearmes of enmity On the Wednesday next ensuing Lloyde and a Gentleman in a white coloured cloake standing talking together at Lincolns Inn gate it hapned Morris and a friende of hys with him to passe by the friende saluted Lloyd as Lloyd did the like by him And very soone after the Gentleman in the white cloke that had stoode talking with Lloyd being sent by him as it apeared followed Morris as Lloyd likewise and rounding him in the eare which the friend then with Morris could not heare hee perceiued an alteration in the countenauce of Morris and the like in Lloyd wh●●● by this time was come to them which he being desirous to remooue as standing an equall friend to them both desired them if any thing were amisse betweene them to 〈◊〉 him perswade a friendly agreement and no to grow into any vnciuill behauiour in th● open street to the wounding of their credit and reputation as also what danger migh● otherwise ensue was doubtful to be gathred Lloyd made answere that he was goo● friends with his Cozen Morris loued hi● as deerly as any in England Whereto Mo●ris instantly replied wilt thou neuer lead thy dissembling Dost thou pretend to lo●● me so deerely and hast euen now sent mee challenge by this man Lloyd immediate returned him this answere that if he had 〈◊〉 sent him a challenge he was come in perso● to answere it and would performe it the● or any where els thus his malicious inte●● very plainely appeared What other word passed betweene them I know not neith●● could they bee heard by any standers by 〈◊〉 forthwith they drewe out both theyr We●pons notwithstanding all intreaty to y e co●trary And indeede Lloyd did drawe to soo● to expresse his bloody and vnquencheab●● malice for he soon gaue to Morris his death wound whereupon he fell downe presentl● notspeaking one word And to witnesse the more his cruell and bloodie hatred hee strake twice or thrice at him when he was downe cutting him ouer the head and otherwise wounding him yet he pleaded that hee did all this but in hys owne defence All this which hath bin breefelie reported being much more circumstantially deliuered in euidence and by oath approued to his face he sought to extenuate his offence by verie shalow speeches vtterly impertinent and most against himselfe in due consideraon of his friuolous allegations For he had bin a man of more dangerous quality then was conceined in his present tryall hauing tasted the Kings most gracious mercy and had beene borne withall beyond his deseruing It was also told him how farre hee had waded in VVatsons treason and was also a partaker in the Gunne-powder plotte sending shot and powder also to them in wales in all which the mercie of his Maiesty had looked more mildly vpon him then himself coulde desire or any way deserue But the Iustice of heauen very manifestly appeared that so false and hollow a hart sullied with the detested guilt of treason must now in a wilful and malicious act of blood and murder declare it selfe to the whole worlde and the vpright censure of Lawe this way depriue him of life that had felte mercy before in a heauier offence Heer is also to be noted that as the quarel first hapned on talk of popish Religion so now Lloyd discouers him in his colours For thogh it was told him that he had very confidently deliuered himself to be otherwise and which himselfe was not able to denye yet nowe Drewrie the Prieste after his iudgement passing away by him in the Docket gaue him a publicke noted absolution with his hand crossing him and vsing some close speeches whereupon thinking this sufficient to wash off his stayne o● Murder he forthwith openly confest tha● he is a Catholique so he had bin alwayes and so hee woulde die as if that very nam● should giue fame to his foule fact wher● he died a murderer his owne ydle supposition of Popishe absolution shoulde make him now to die in the case of a Martyr and for his conscience When he was drawne in the Carte with others toward execution and all the Carts beeing stayed before Saint Sepulchers Church where the most Christian and charitable deed of Master Dooue at euery such time is worthily performed to moue prayer and compassion in mens harts for such 〈…〉 All the while that the man spake Lloyd stopte his eares not willing to heare any thing but if any Romaine Catholicks were neere he desired such to pray for him And so at Tyborne he did in like manner calling to Romaine Catholickes to praye with him and for him but no other prayers would he accept of But the Lawe hauing censured him and Iustice likewise beeing past vppon him what else remaines to bee thought or said of him let it be so charitably as such a case requireth and as becommeth all honest Christians Euermore remembring that flesh blood is subiect to frailty and he that boasteth most of strength maye soonest fall and be deceiued therefore let vs measure other mens infirmities by a considerate care of whatour owne may be and committing all to
