little broken Englishe and he conducted vs where my Lord the English Ambassador laie to whome I gaue the Letters and after certaine talke he vsed with vs he bestowed his Honourable lyberalitie vppon vs wishing vs to returne backe againe into England Leauing my Lord and walking into the Cittie we met too certayne English Gentlemen some of them for the knowledge they had of me in England shewed them selues verie courteous to me bothe in money lodging and other necessaries And through them we became acquainted with a number of Englishe men more who lay in the Cittie some in Colledges and some at their owne houses where vsing dailie company among them sometime at dinner and sometime at supper we heard many girdes and nippes against our Countrey of England her Maiesty very vnreuerently

howe he had an Armie of Spaniardes with him and howe him selfe vnder the Popes Standarde would giue such an attempt there as soone after should make all England to quake beside there were certaine Englishe men gone to the Pope for more ayde if néede should be at whose returne certaine Noble men English men then béeing in those partes whose names I omitte for diuers causes would prosecute the matter with as much spéede as might be The very same did the Préest at Amiens giue vs to vnderstand of almost in euerie point agréeing with this which made vs to doubt because in euerie mans mouth her Maiesty styl was aimed at in such māner as I trēble and shake to thinke on their woordes All this tyme that we remained amongst them diuerse of the Gentlemen and others who were lyke factors for the Pope as Maister Woodward at Amiens Doctor Bristowe at Doway and Doctor Allen at Rheimes were to encrease his Seminaries with as many Englishe men as they might verie earnestlie perswaded vs to trauell to Roome assuring vs that we should be there entertained to our high contentment beside they would giue vs Letters for our better welcome thether We were soone entreated to take the iourney on vs because we thought if we could goe to Roome and returne safelie againe into England we should accomplish a great matter the place béeing so farre of and the voyage so daungerous Uppon our agréement to vndertake the trauell we receyued of euerie one lyberallie toward the bearing of our charges and Letters we had to Maister Doctor Lewes in Roome the Archdeacō of Cambra and to Doctor Morris then the Rector of the English Hospital or Colledge in Roome that we might there be preferred among the English Students Taking our leaue of them and yeelding them thankes for their greate courtesy we iournied to Lyons where in the house of one Maister Deacon the wordes were spoken by Henry Orton one of them condemned and yet liuing in the Tower which in my other booke I haue auouched From thence wee went to Millaine where in the Cardinall Boromehos Pallace we found the lodging of a Welshman named Doctor Robert Griffin a man there had in a good accoūt and Cōfessor to the aforesaid Cardinal By him we were very courteouslye entertained and sent to the house of an Englishe Prieste in the Cittie named Maister Harries who likewise bestowed on vs very gentle acceptaunce as also three English Gentlemē who lay in his house being very lately retourned frō Roome they likewise both in cost and courtesie behaued them selues like Gentlemen vnto vs during the time that we made our abode in Millaine Our comming to Millayne was on Christmas euen and hauing lyen that night at an Osteria where Maister Harryes appoynted vs on Christmas day we dyned with Doctor Griffin where we had great cheere and lyke welcome In the dinner time he moued many questions vnto vs as concerning the estate of England if we heard of any warres towardes and howe the Catholiques thriued in Englande and at the laste quoth he haue you not séene three Gentlemen that lye at Maister Harryes his house Yes that we haue quoth I to vs they séeme meruailous curteous and offer vs such freendshippe as we haue neuer deserued Oh quoth
