XX Of the Cardinals entertainement by the Earle of Shrewsbury and of his death and buriall CHAP. I. Of the Cardinall his Originall and who he was TRuth it is Cardinall Woolsey was an honest poore mans sonne in the towne of Ipswich in the county of Suffolke and there borne who being but a child was very apt to learne wherefore by means of his parents and other his good friends hee was maintained at the Vniversitie of Oxford where in a short time hee prospered so well that in a small time as hee told mee with his owne mouth he was made Batchelour of Arts when he was but fifteene yeares of age and was most commonly called the Boy Batchelour Thus prospering in learning he was made fellow of Magdalene Colledge in Oxford after that he was made Master of Magdalene Schoole at which time were the Lord Marquesse Dorset sons there at Schoole committing unto him as well their education as their instructions and learning It pleased this Lord Marquesse against Christmas to send as well for the Schoolemaster as for the Schollers home to his house for their recreation in that pleasant and honorable Forrest They being a while there the Lord Marquesse their Father perceiving them to bee well improved in learning for the time Hee was so well contented that he having a Benefice in his gift being at that present voyd gave the Schoole Master the same in regard of his diligence After Christmas at his departure to the
all the Kings requests fully accomplished and granted At which time hee made no further stay but tooke Post-horses that night and rode without intermission to Callis being conducted thither by divers Nobles appointed by the Emperour and at the opening of the gates of Callis he came thither where the Passengers were readie to returne for England insomuch that he arrived at Dover betweene tenne and eleaven of the clock in the fore-noone And having Post-horses in a readinesse came to the Court at Richmond that same night where taking his repose untill morning he presented himselfe unto his Majestie at his first comming out of his Bed-chamber to his Closet to Masse whom when he saw he checked for that he was not in his journey Sir quoth hee If it may please your Highnesse I have alreadie beene with the Emperour and dispatched your affaires I trust to your Graces contentation and thereupon presented the King with his Letters of Credence from the Emperour The King wondring at his speedie returne he being so well furnished with all his proceedings for the present dissembled his admiration and imagination in that matter and demaunding of him whether he encountred with his Pursevant which he sent unto him with Letters imagining him to be scarce out of London which concerned very materiall passages which were omitted in their Consultation which the King earnestly desired should have been dispatched in his Ambassage Yes forsooth quoth he I met with him yesterday by the way and though I had no knowledge thereof yet notwithstanding I have beene so bold upon mine owne discretion perceiving the matter to be very necessary in that behalfe I dispatched the same And forasmuch as I have beene so bold to exceede my Commission I most humbly crave your Royall remission and pardon The King inwardly rejoycing replyed We doe not onely pardon you but give you our Princely thankes both for your good exploit and happie expedition And dismissed him for that present and bad him returne to him againe after dinner for a further relation of his Ambassage and so the King went to Masse It is not to be doubted but this Ambassadour had all this while visited his great Friends the Bishop of Winchester and Sir Thomas Lovell to whom he had declared the effect of his Ambassage and also his Majesties commendations of him did not a little rejoyce the worthy Counsellours forasmuch as he was of their preferment And shortly after the King gave him for his diligent service the Deanrie of Lincolne which was in those dayes one of the greatest promotions that he gave under the degree of a Bishop And he grew more and more in estimation and authoritie and was afterwards promoted to be Almaner Now not long after when Death that favoureth no Estates nor King nor Kezar had taken away the wise King Henry the Seaventh out of this present life It was a wonder to see what practices and devices were then used about the young Prince Henry the Eight The great provision that was then made for the Funerall of the one and for the Coronation of the other by the now-Queene Katharine and Mother after the Queenes Highnesse that now is whose vertuous life Iesu long preserve After the solemnizations and costly tryumphes our naturall young couragious lusty Prince and Soveraigne Lord King Henry the Eight entring into his flower and lusty youth tooke upon him the Royall Scepter and Imperiall Diademe of this fertile Nation the two and twentieth of Aprill Anno Dom 1509. which at that time flourished with all abundance of riches whereof the King was most inestimably furnished called then the golden world Now shortly after the Almaner seeing he had a plaine path-way to promotion behaved himselfe so politickly that he was made one of the Kings Privie Councell and increased in favour daily to whom he gave a house at Bridewell neer Fleete-street where he kept his house for his family and so he daily attended upon the King being in speciall favour His sentences in the Star-chamber were ever so pithie wittie that upon all occasions they assigned him for the fluent eloquence of his tongue to be the Expositor to the King in all their proceedings In whom the King received so great content that he called him still nearer to his person and the rather because he was most ready to advance the Kings owne will and pleasure having no respect to the Case Now the King being young and much given to his pleasure his old Councellors advised him to have recourse sometimes to the Councell about his weightie affaires but the Almaner on the contrary perswaded him to mind his pleasure and he would take his care and charge upon himselfe if his Majestie would countenance him with his authoritie which the King liked well And thus none was like to the Almaner in favour with the King CHAP. III. Of King Henries invading France in his owne person with the Cardinals assistance This Almoner clyming up Fortunes wheele that no man was in estimation with the King but onely he for his witty qualities and wisdome Hee had an especiall gift of Naturall Eloquence and a fyled tongue to pronounce the same that hee was able therewith to perswade and allure all men to his purposes in the time of his continuance in fortunes favour In the fift yeare of the raigne of King Henry the Eight it chanced that the Realme of England and France was at variance but upon what ground or occasion I know not Insomuch that the King was fully resolved in his owne person to invade France with a puissant Army It was therefore thought very necessary that his royall enterprises should be speedily provided and furnished in every degree in things apt and convenient for the same For expedition thereof the King thought no mans wit so meete for policie and painfull travell as the Almoner to whom he committed his whole affiance and trust therein And he being nothing scrupulous in any thing that the King would command although it seemed very difficult tooke upon him the whole charge of the businesse and proceeded so therein that he brought all things to good effect in direct order for all manner of victuals and provision convenient for so noble a voyage and Army All things being thus prepared by him in order the King not intending to neglect or delay any time but with noble and valiant courage to advance his royall enterprize passed the Seas betweene Dover and Callis where hee prosperously arrived And after he had there made his arrivall and landed all his provision and munition and sate in Consultation about his weighty affaires marched forth in good order of battell till he came to the strong Towne of Turwine to the which hee laid strong siege and made a sharpe assault so that in short space it was yeelded unto him unto which place the Emperour Maximillian resorted unto him with a great Army like a mighty Prince taking of the King wages Thus

VI Of his second Embassage to the Emperour Charles the Fifth A After he was thus furnished in manner as I have before rehearsed unto you Hee was sent twice on Embassage to the Emperour Charles the Fifth that now raigneth and Father to King Philip now our Lord and Soveraigne Forasmuch as the old Emperour Maximillian was dead and for divers other urgent occasions touching his Majestie It was thought fit that about such weightie matters and to so noble a Prince the Cardinall was most meete to be sent on this Embassage and he being one ready to take the charge thereof upon him was furnished in every respect most like a great Prince which was much to the honour of his Majestie and of this Realme For first he proceeded forth like to a Cardinall having all things correspondent his Gentlemen being very many in number were clothed in livery Coats of Crimson Velvet of the best and chaines of gold about their necks And his yeomen and all his meane officers were clad in fine Scarlet guarded with blacke Velvet one hand breadth Thus furnished he was twice sent in this manner to the Emperour in Flanders then lying at Bridges whom he did most nobly entertaine discharging all his owne charges and his mens There was no house in the Towne of Bridges wherein any of my Lords Gentlemen were lodged or had recourse but that the owners of the houses were commanded by the Emperours Officers upon the paine of their lives to take no money for any thing that the Cardinals men did take of any kind of victuals No although they were disposed to make costly Banquets further commanding their said hoasts that they should want nothing which they honestly required or desired to have Also the Emperours Officers every night went through the Towne from house to house where any Englishmen had recourse or lodged and served their Livery for all night which was done on this manner First the Officers brought into the house a Casteele of fine Manchet then two silver pots of Wine and a pound of Sugar white lights and yellow lights a Bowle of silver and a Goblet to drinke in and every night a staffe Torch This was their order of their Livery every night And then in the morning when the Officers came to fetch away their stuffe they would accompt for the Gentlemens costs the day before Thus the Emperour entertained the Cardinall and his traine during the time of his Embassie And that done he returned into England with great Triumph being no lesse in estimation with the King then he was before but rather much more for he encreased daily in the Kings favour by reason of wits and readinesse to doe the King pleasure in all things In the one and twentieth yeare of King Henry the Eighths raine Anno Dom. 1529.
