Besley would have put in the Lords before him but she said Come in M. Besley you know the way but they do not this they thought strange that she should know them and never saw them Then they went into the house where there was a great fire and she bid them welcome calling them by their names and sent for some Cakes and Ale and they dranke and were very merry Mother Shipton said the Duke if you knew what we came about you would not bid us so welcome she said the messenger should not be hang'd Mother Shipton said the Duke you said the Cardinall should never see York yea said she I said he might see York but never come at it but said the Duke when he comes to York thou shalt be burned we shall see that said she and plucking her handkerchiefe off her head she threw it into the fire and it would not burne then she took her staffe and turned it into the fire and it would not burne then she took it and put it on againe then said the Duke what meane you by this she replyed if this had burned I might have burned Mother Shipton quoth the Duke what thinke you of me My Lord said she the time will come (a) The Duke was afterward beheaded you will be as low as I am and that is a low one indeed My Lord Piercy said And what say you of me My Lord said she shooe your horse in the quick and you will do well but your (b) This proved true for he rose in Rebellion in the North and by not flying when he might he was taken and beheaded at York where his body was buried but his head was stolne away carried into France temp Eliz.

Besley Yonder is a fine Stall built for the Cardinall in the Minster of Gold Pearle and precious Stones go and present one of the Pillars to King Henry and he did so M.
