since haue followed it They must denounce that damnable heresie crept in to the Church of England that proude vsurping Iezabell meaning our bread gracious Princesse whom quoth he God reserueth to make her a notable spectacle to the whole world for keeping y e good Queene of Scots frō her lawfull rule but I hope ere long y e Dogs shall teare her flesh those y t be her props vpholders Then drawing a paper out of his pocket he sayd I haue a Bead role of them heere who little knowes what is prouiding for them I hope shall not know till it fall vpon them Then he read their names vnto me which that all may perceiue the villainous trayterous mindes of our owne Countriemen so many of them as I can call to memory I will set down euen in the same manner as he read thē But first I must craue pardon of those honourable personages to whome the words doo offer great abuse and whom I vnfeynedlye reuerence and honour that they would not admit any euill conceite against mee but in the noble nature wherewith they are dayly adorned I béeing but the reporter may be pardoned and not reprooued First quoth he héere is my Lord Keeper the Bacon hogge the Butchers sonne the great guts oh he woulde fry well with a Faggot or his head would make a fayre showe vpon London bridge where I hope shortly it shall stand Next is eloquent Maister Cecill Lorde Treasorer you shall shortly see if he can saue his owne life with all y e wit he hath had it not béen for these two before named England had gon to wracke long since Then heere is the Earle of Leicester the Queenes Ostler his brother Ambrose Dudly a good fat whorson to make Bacon of with other words of my Lorde of Leicester not here to be rehearsed My Lord of Bedforde he forsooth is y e Queenes Coozin we will sée how finely his Coozin he can hang together Sir Fraunces Walsinghā Doctor Wilson they be her Secretaries for euery warrāt they haue suffered to apprehend any of our Priestes our fréends or other by that time they haue coūted their reckoning they shall find they haue a deere payment Sir Christopher Hatton he pleased y e Queene so wel dauncing before her in a Maske y t since y t time he hath risen to be one of y e Counsell with other words which I referre for modestie Sir Fraunces Knowles and other of the Counsell whose names I well remember not he gaue them many a heauy threatning Then opening the paper farder at the end therof was a great many of names of Magistrates other belonging to this Cittie among whome was Maister Recorder Maister Nowell Deane of Paules Maister Foxe Maister Crowlye sundry other whose names I cannot very well remember and therefore am loth to set downe any thing but that whereof I am certainly assured but verye well I remember there was no one named but he had the order of his death appoynted eyther by burning hanging or quartering and such like It is not vnlike but that this vnreuerent matter will offende some in the reading that men of honour and worshippe and those of credite and countenaunce shoulde haue their names published in print in suche sorte I haue had the iudgement of those of worshippe and learning on this behalfe and they haue sayde how it is necessary that theyr owne wicked spéeches should be set downe for an example to all men howe they abuse her Maiestie her honourable Councell and learned and discréete Maiestrates whereby their trayterous dealings may be the better discouered And to them thus vndutifully regarded it can not séeme an offence considering that Christe vnto his chosen vessels hath sayd You shall be mocked scorned and reuiled for my sake but doo you reioyce and be glad for your rewarde is the greater in the kingdome of Heauen and you remaine blessed Then putting vp his Paper agayne he began after this manner As I haue sayd before so now I saye the same such as come to this holy place must faithfully bende his life and conuersasion to honour and reuerence our prouident and holy Father the Pope in all thinges that shall like him to commaund to holde and confesse him the vniuersall supreme heade of Christes church embrace his decrees as the onely ordenance will of God For he is the person of God on earth and he can not sinne because the spirite of diuine grace guideth him continuallie he hath aucthoritie ouer all Kinges and Princes to erect and suppresse whome he pleaseth and that shall England well knowe ere long that he hath such power and aucthoritie To honour and obey him to be a true and faithfull member of his Church and to liue and die in his cause this ought to be the intent of all that commeth héere This long Tale contayning a number of more circumstaunces than I can vnfolde made me studie what aunswer I should make him which after some pause came foorth as thus Credite me Sir I am but a Nouesse in these matters and therefore you might as well haue disputed with me in the déepest Schoole points that is and I should haue censured bothe alike Nay quoth he I thinke not your ignoraunce so great albeit it séemeth great enough though you haue béene looselie brought vp yet you haue béene with me bothe at Masse and at Confession diuers times at such time as I serued my Lady B. Beside there are a great many of Priestes in England as in Warwickshire at Maister I. T. in Staffordshire at Maister G. of C. and at S. T. F. in the same shyre all these be neere your Fathers and not one of them but visiteth your Fathers house three or fowre times euerie yéere as they dyd when I was there for there is no long tariaunce in one place for a Priest but he must shifte styll least he be taken and I am sure your Father would sée you duelie confessed Nowe I was put to so harde a shifte that I knewe not well what to say I knewe none of these men he named but one and he in deede had a Priest who after his long raunging about his Maister the Popes businesse heere in England I thanke God I haue caused to be stayed Likewise I knewe not the Gentleman whome bothe they at Paris and he sayde to be my Father neither where he dwelt nor what he was which made me stand in feare to be disprooued hauing auouched my selfe before to be his Sonne Wherfore referring my case to God who had so prouided for me tyll that time in his name I resolued my selfe on this aunswer not knowing howe it might happen to spéede In déede Sir I can not denie but that I haue oftentimes heard Masse as also béene at Confession but my deuotion thereto hath béene ●ender as you your selfe haue séene knowing me to be so
