The reasons for these representations were thus given in earlier times: "And for this cause Roodes and ymages ben set on hye in the chirches; for as soone as a man cometh into the chirche, he shold see it and have it in his mynde and thynke on Cristis passyon: wherfore crosses and other ymages be full necessary and nedeful, whatsomever these Lollers saye; for and it had not be full profitable, holy faders wolde have destroyed hem many yeres agone. For right as the people done worshyp to the Kingis seale, not for love of that seale, but for love of that kyng that it cometh fro; so Roodes and ymages be set for the Kynges seale of heven and other sayntes in that same wyse: for ymages ben lewed peples bokes; and as Johan Bellet [See Bishop Jewel's Reply to Harding, Art. iii. div. 15. end.] saith, there be thousandes of peple that cannot ymagyne in her [their] hertes how Crist was done on the crosse, but as they see by ymages in the Chirches, and in other places there as they ben."

In conformity with the tenor of this edict, we may presume, was issued the following reproof to the Mayor and Corporation of Bristol, being an extract from Queen Mary's Privy Council Book, now kept at the Privy Council Office, Whitehall: -

In "The Charge of the Quest of Warmot in every Warde," given by Arnold in the "Customs of London," p. 90, inquiry is ordered to be made, "yf there by ony comon ryator, barratur, &c, dwelling wythin the warde." The term is taken from the French, barateur, in low Latin, baraterius, which have the same meaning. (See Mr. Way's note on Promptorium Parv. p. 115, where it is Latinized (p. 23) by pugnax.)

{Cattley/Pratt alters 'til' to 'to' in the text.} The preposition "to" is taken for "until," both here and a few lines lower; "yea to the lord legates commissioners." It is the reading of the first three editions of Foxe, altered in those subsequent into "till." Mr. Halliwell quotes an instance of this use from a Lincoln MS.:-
"Theys knyghtis never stynte ne blane
To thay unto the cetè wanne."
Warton's "History of English Poetry" (i. 67, Edit. 1840) furnishes from Robert de Brunne another:-
"Of that gift no thing ne wist
To he was cast oute with Hengist."
The same author (iii. 99) gives another instance of this idiom from Minot's poems on the wars of Edward III:-
"And in that land, trewly to tell,
Ordains he still for to dwell
To time he think to fyght."

At a certain period during the solemnization of Mass, a tablet, or small square board (occasionally perhaps constructed in a folding fashion) was exhibited to the communicants, who one after another imprinted upon it the kiss of peace, "hincque dicta la pax." It was more or less ornamented according to the status of the house to which it belonged, or the ingenuity of its monks. It is called by the various names of Pax, Paxbred, and Deosculatorium. (Raine's "St. Cuthbert," p. 129.)
"Shortly after the Agnus ye kiss the Pax, which was the ordinance of Pope Innocent in the year of our Lord 310; and while the boy or parish clerke carrieth the Pax about, ye yourselves alone eat up all, and drink up all. Ah! what riding fools and very dolts make ye the people! ye send them a piece of wood, or glass, or of some metal to kiss, and in the mean season ye eat and drink up all together." (Becon's "Displaying of the Popish Masse," London. 1637, pp. 261-2.) "Minister daturus pacem genuflectit ad dextram celebrantis, et dicto tertio Agnus Dei, cum primâ oratione sequenti, porrigit instrumentum osculandum eidem celebranti." Gavanti "Thesaurus Sac.

The faculty of teaching with authority, pronouncing judgment ex officio, or propounding doctrine ex cathedrá, is indicated by the same emblem [of keys].

The words here designated a portion of the Bible are a citation from Baruch, chap. vi. 1-5. The application of the term "Scripture" in a broad way to the Apocryphal books had become rather customary (Rivet. "Isagoge ad Scrip. Sac." cap. vii. ¶ 27), though they are not recognised as such by the Jewish Church. (Horne's Introduction, vol. i. p. 481, edit. 1846. See Bishop Marsh's Comparative View, ch. v.) But this particular passage does not furnish the expression "the living God" (Acts xiv. 15), for which Woodman quotes it to repel the charge of heresy. "Did I not tell you, my lord deputy," cries Gardiner, "how you should know a heretic? He is up with his living God, as though there were a dead God. They have nothing in their mouths, these heretics, but the Lord liveth; the lyving God: the Lord, the Lord, and nothing but the Lord." (Strype's "Memorials under Mary," ch. vii. p. 68.)
Brokes, afterwards Bishop of Gloucester, complains in the same way: "Hath not the like practise been exercised with us these fewe yeres past, by our evangelical brotherhood? Have not we bene likewise by them assaulted with the word of the Lord, urged with the word of the Lorde, pressed with the word of the Lord, ye when the Lorde (our Lord knoweth) ment nothing lesse? was other [either] ergo in pervise [parvise: a porch where disputations took place] other Alleluya at Easter ever more common than was in theyr mouthes, the worde of the Lord and God's boke?" [In a MS. poem composed on Sir John Oldcastle, preserved in the Cotton Library, there occurs:-
"It is unkindly for a knight
That should a king's castle keep,
To babble the Bible day and night
In resting time, when he should sleep."
See Mr. Sharon Turner's "Hist. of England during the Middle Ages," iii. 144, edit. 1830.] (Sermon at Paule's Crosse, Nov. xii. 1553, sign. D. 11. Imprinted by R. Caly.) On the "Seven Generations," see Mr. Russell Hall's "Errors of the Apocrypha," Lond. 1836, p. 11.

Contented, satisfied: see Boucher's Glossary. Wycliffe against the Order of Friers (chap. 42) complains, they "ne be apaied with food and hylling." In the old editions of Sternhold and Hopkins, Psalm lxxxiii. 8 is thus versified:-
"And Assur eke is well apaid
With them in league to be."
See also Bishop Hall's Dedication to a Sermon at Excester, August 24th, 1637. Foxe uses "evil apaid," vol. ii. p. 359, line 9, in the sense of discontent, by a less common application.

From a reference to this martyr in the Privy Council Book it would appear, that Thurston was alive over this month:-

{Cattley/Pratt alters 'S. Rouses' to 'St. Osyth's' in the text.} In the Latin this is "ad S. Roufium" or "Rousium" or "Roustum," for the type is not clear; in 1563 and 1570 "S. Roufes;" in 1576 and all following Editions "S. Rouses;" which is supposed to mean St. Osyth's on the coast of Essex. Addenda:The conjecture that St. Rouses means St. Osyth's is confirmed by a passage in Thomas Mountain's Autobiography: "This vyage [from Colchester to Holland] was tryshe [thrice] attemptyd and always was put bake; and at the laste tyme we were caste a land at sent towsys, wheras I durste not longe tary, bycawse of my lord Darsy, who laye there, havynge a strayte comysyon sent unto hym from quene Marye, to make dyllygent searche for one beynge callyd Trowge over the worlde, and for all souche lyke begars as he was." Mr. Nichols has misread it "sent Towhys" instead of "sent towsys." This colloquial form of "St. Osythe's" is obtained by repeating the final t of "sent" at the beginning of the next word: thus a few lines lower Mountain repeats n, "an noneste man." So, "Tooley Street" is an abbreviation or corruption of "Saint Ooley's or Olave's Street." "S. Rouses" was another colloquial form of "St. Osyth'e;" or Foxe may have mistaken the t in touses for an r, which Mountain's writing suggests as probable.

What follows these words in the first edition, p. 1631, gives a better or an additional reason for Margaret Thurston's being deferred; and accords better with her subsequent history, where her "backsliding" is alluded to.

The first three English Editions read "with the said Thomas Hinshaw and with Robert Willis." The Robert Willis here mentioned is evidently the same individual with "Robert Willys" mentioned {earlier}; but the editor of the Editions of 1583 took it into his head, that the same family was named either "Milles" or "Willis," and that this Robert Willis was the same individual as Robert Milles, mentioned ... as the brother of John Milles, and as "burnt before at Brentford, as is above signified"; hence he here omits the word "with," evidently for the purpose of connecting Robert Willis as well as Thomas Hinshaw with the word "said:" in conformity with this same notion he conversely alters Milles into Willes; the first time (by an oversight) he leaves Milles to stand, though presently after, he prints "Willes:" here also he throughout prints "John Willes," as the person scourged with Thomas Hinshaw.

In Cicero's treatise "De Natura Deorum" (lib. i. ¶ 18) it is argued by the Stoic, that the form or shape which Deity would assume would be the human, accompanied however with merely a quasi body, and quasi blood. But in ¶ 26 it is remarked in refutation of the notion: "Mirabile videtur quod non rideat haruspex, cum haruspicem viderit: hoc mirabilius, quod vos inter vos risum tenere possitis; non est corpus, sed quasi corpus: hoc intelligerem quale esset, si id in ceris fingeretur aut fictilibus figuris: in deo quid sit quasi corpus, aut quasi sanguis, intelligere non possum; ne tu quidem, Vellei; sed non vis fateri.

Thether he rode with his men following hym on fote to catch Moyse; but Moyse being aloft upon a cart, espied the stout Hunter, and perceiving that he was the pray, made hast of the carte and toke him to his feete out of the field. Nownd folowed with hast on horse back, and his men on fote. But Moise lept over a hedge so that the horseman could follow him no longer, but sent hys men after to hallowe and hunt. But God dyd so hyde poor Moyse in a smal covert, that they retorned without their pray. So was the labor of thungodly frustat. The same Nowne playd the watchman himselfe, in seking of Gouch and Drivers wyfe, with a javeling in his hand, lyke a tal speare man, and yet he never killed so much as a rat in his Princes warres. He being on his nags backe an after none, at dronken tyme of the daye toward night, made a lusty course lyke a tall man of war before hys wyfe, and asked her if she thought him not to be a lusty Champion, and so wente forth with hys speare and pytch forkes, and gaged the hay goffes, to seke out the sely soules, that were in quiet rest. But after Quene Elizabeth by the providence of God had obteyned the crown, the same Nownd tourning his typpet and hys tale at Wodbridge, complayned of the greate mysery that pore soules had suffered, and that men in office and authority were compelled to use suche greate violence and persecution against theyr willes. But wold to God that that horse that would not be ruled, but carry a man agaynst hys will, had eyther bene better broken, or faster tied in a halter. And how can such a Justice justly, and with a safe conscience, nowe punish adversaries of Goddes religion, remayning the same, and in the same office?"

On a subsequent leaf he pursues this topic: "And because our hereticks will needs have their men to be taken for martyrs, some of them counterfeyting the trade of the ancient state of the true Church, gather together the burnt bones of those stinking martyrs, intending thereby (by like) to shrine the same, or to preserve them for relicks; that at such a time as when an heretick is burnt, ye shall see a route enclosing the fire, for that purpose. And when the fire is done, they lie wallowing like pigs in a sty to scrape in that heretical dongehill for the said bones. Yea, and as it is reported, some gossips and fellow disciples of those wicked apostles use the same next to their hearts in the morning, being grated in a cup of Ale to preserve them from the chyncoughe, and such other maladies incident to such hot burning stomacks."

The ensuing account of Elizabeth's apprehension and imprisonment in the Tower is not quite accurate: Foxe, however, himself supplies what is defective in other places of his work. The following are the outlines of what occurred:-
Wyat rose January 25th, 1554: next day Mary wrote to Elizabeth to come to court for her own safety's sake. Elizabeth sent word she was most desirous to come, but begged three or four days' indulgence on account of illness. Her gentlemen afterwards wrote to state her illness and exculpate themselves. (See both Letters in Strype's Memorials, Mary). Wyat removed towards London January 31st, on which Mary went to Guildhall in much excitement, and addressed the citizens, February 1st; after which she left Lord High Admiral Howard and the Lord Treasurer to aid the mayor in resisting Wyat. She then sent commissioners to fetch Elizabeth, no doubt partly at the suggestion of Gardiner, who was with her at Guildhall: who stated it was "the Queen's pleasure that she should be in London the seventh day of that present month." Foxe, however, is wrong in stating here, that these commissioners fetched Elizabeth away the next morning; for he elsewhere states that another commission was sent, viz. Lord Howard, and Sir Edward Hastings, on Saturday, February 11th, who relate their arrival at Ashridge in a letter to Mary of that day, enclosing a plan of their intended journey to town the following week. Foxe on the next page gives a plan closely resembling that. Under this arrangement Elizabeth would have arrived in town on Friday, February 16th, when (according to Foxe, she was shut up in privacy for a "fortnight, till Palm-Sunday," which fell on March 18th, i. e. thirty days after her arrival. The truth is, that plan evidently was not adhered to, in consequence of Elizabeth's illness; and she did not reach town till Thursday, February 22d. (Carte, Cotton MSS. F. 5, and Noaille's Letter to the French king, dated the following Saturday.) Three weeks (not "a fortnight," as Foxe says) from this time, or on Friday, March 16th, Gardiner paid his visit; and on Palm-Sunday, March 18th, she went to the Tower. (Cottom MSS. Vitell. F. 5)

May that be a misprint for "waithing," explained in Jamieson's Scottish Dictionary by "wandering, roaming"? Or may "wafting" be a misprint for "waffing," of which the same work gives the meaning "to wave;" and of "waffie" "a vagabond"? "Waffing" is said in the Glossary to Allan Ramsay's Poems, 1721, to mean "wandering." See Brand's Pop. Antiq. III. 122, Edit. 1841.
The reading, however, of "wafting" in this place seems to be supported by the following passage in Cavendish's Life of Wolsey, vol. i. p. 185; "boats full of men and women of the City of London, waffeting up and down in Thames;" which in Dr. Wordsworth's copy (in Eccles. Biogr. i. 565) is "walking up and doune."

There seems to be some mistake here. Hofmeister, who was a monk of the Augustinian order, attended the second Conference at Ratisbon in 1546, and spoke on the 20th of February. See Actorum Colloquii Ratisbonensis ult. narratio; Lovanii, 1547; and Sleidan, tom. ii. 416, Edit. 1786.
He died in fact at Gunzburg, in 1547, in his thirty-eight year, having according to Romish authority, been poisoned by the heretics! - "Astu et dolo hæreticorum creditur interiisse. Sic enim Seripandus ... in suo diario notavit: Mortuus igitur est Hoffmaisterus, ut credebatur hæreticorum extinctus veneno." Ossingeri Biblioth. Augustiniana (Ingoldst. 1768), p. 448.
The sentiments of Hoffmeister were on some points, however, of so liberal a caste, that his own so-called Catholic brethren might be inclined to get rid of him in some noiseless way. See Rivet's Grotianæ Discussionis Dialysis, sect. 1, ¶ 20; sect. 5, ¶ 11. See also Wolfii Lectiones Memorabiles, tom. ii. 516-17, Edit. 1672, which, in some measure, supports Foxe's representation.

The champion's Enchiridion was regarded as a most potent weapon by the anti-Catholics of Reformation times. Bale, under the name of Harryson, writes:-

His history commences in 1556, and ends in 1561 with the Conference at Poissy, of which it gives an excellent journal.

Mr. Douce thinks (MS. note on copy now in the Bodleian) that Lady Jane must, from her reply, have read the following "narration" in the Liber Festivalis, fol. xliii. (misprinted xlvii.) recto, Edit. Paris, 1495:-
"We rede in saynt Gregorys tyme. There was a woman that hight laciva and se made brede [the "singing cake" of Foxe] for the Pope and other preestys to synge with: and for to housell with the peple. Also whan the Pope come to this woman to yeve her housel: and sayd take here Goddis body: thenne this woman smyled and laughed. Thenne the Pope wytdrew his honde; and layd the ostye upon the aultar: and torned to this woman Lacyva and sayd to her, why smylest thou whan thou shouldest receyve Crystis body:and she sayd why calleste thou that Cristis body that I made with my one handis. Thenne was Gregory the Pope sory for her mysbeleve and bad all the peple pray to God to shewe some miracle for this womans helpe: and whan they had prayed long, Gregory wente to the aulter agen, and founde thosty [the host] torned in to red flesche and blood bledynge; and he sheweth it to this woman," &c.
Lady Jane, however, happily did not follow up the story, nor attend to the object here proposed in this scene: "And therfore lete us do all the worship that we may to the sacrament that we can or maye, and be in noo mysbyleve."

Foxe's accuracy in stating that Ridley once went to mass in the Tower, seems to be very questionable. Ridley meant not to allude to any such thing in his conference with Latimer, but to his former practice in his unenlightened state. See the passage in the second Conference, and Second Objection of Antonian, supra, vol. vii. p. 411. Ridley denies that he ever allowed the mass with his presence, vol. vii. pp. 424, 434.

Sir Thomas More has furnished some particulars about Hitton, which, as such notices are not over abundant, we may ... here introduce:-
"Thus rejoiced Tyndale in the death of Hytton, of whose burning he boasteth in his answer to my dialogue [in Tyndale's Practice of Prelates: Works, vol. i. p. 485, edit. 1831], where he writeth thereof, that where I said that I had never founden nor heard of any of them, but that he would forswear to save his life, I had heard he saith of Sir Thomas Hytton whom the Bishops of Rochester and Canterbury slew at Maydstone. Of this man they so highly rejoice, that they have as I said, sett his name in the Kalendar before a book of their English prayers, by the name of St. Thomas the Martyr, in the vigil of the blessed Apostle St. Mathew the xxiii day of February, and have put out for him the holy doctor and glorious martyr St. Polycarpus, the blessed Bp. and the disciple of St. John the Evangelist; for that was his day indeed, and so it is in some calendars marked. Now to the entent that ye may somewhat see what good Christen faith Sir Thomas Hytton was of, this new saint of Tyndale's canonysazion, in whose burning Tyndale so gaily glorieth, and which hath his holy day so now appointed to him, that St. Polycarpus must give him place in the Kalendar; I shall somewhat show you what wholesome heresies this holy martyr held.
"First ye shall understand that he was a Priest, and falling to Luther's sect, and after that to the sect of Friar Huskyn and Zuynglius, cast off matins and Mass, and all divine service, and so became an Apostle sent to and fro between our English heretics beyond the see, and such as were here at home.
"Now happed it so that after he had visited here his holy congregations in divers corners, and luskes [perhaps dirty or blind, unfrequented from lusciosus. See however Todd's Johnson and Richardson's Dict. The Host asking the Chanon's Yeman, in Chaucer, where he dwells, the latter says,- "In the suburbis of a toune (quod he) Lurking in harnis and in lanis blinde." - Prologe 678-9] lanes, and comforted them in the Lord to stand stiff with the devil in their errors and heresies, as he was going back again at Gravesend, God considering the great labour that he had taken already, and determining to bring his business to his well-deserved end, gave him suddenly such a favour and so great a grace in the visage, that every man that beheld him took him for a thief. For whereas there had been certain linen clothes pilfered away that were hanging on an hedge, and Sir Thomas Hytton was walking not far off suspiciously in the meditation of his heresies; the people doubting that the beggarly knave had stolen the clouts, fell in question with him and searched him; and so found they certain letters secreetly conveyed in his coat, written from evangelical brethren here, unto the evangelical heretics beyond the see. And upon those letters founden, he was wyth his letters brought before the most rev. Father in God the Archbp of Canterbury, and afterward as well by his Lordship as by the Reverend Father the Bp of Rochester examined, and after for his abominable heresies delivered to the secular hands and burned. In his examinacion he refused to be sworn to say truth, affirming that neither Bp nor Pope had authority to compell him to swear, which point although it be a false heresy, yet it is likely he refused the oath rather of frowardness than of any respect that he had either in keeping or breaking.
"His father and his mother he wold not be a knowen of what they were; they were some so good folk of likelihood, that he could not abide the glory. He wold not be a knowen that himself was Priest, but said that he had by the space of ix yeres been beyond the see, and there lived by the joiner's craft. Howbeit he said that he had always, as his leisure wold give him leave, and as he could find opportunity, in places where he came, taught the gospel of God after his own minde and his own opinion, not forcing of the determination of the church, and said that he intended to his power so to persevere still."

In a speech delivered on the scaffold, this Romish saint (see Wood's Athenæ, i. col. 388) attempted in some degree to neutralize this charge; and the reason given for his relaxation is no doubt honest. Rome disowns with much readiness schemes, the issue of which she descries from afar is becoming doubtful, and which are not likely to answer.
"To prove," says Dr. Story, "that I was not so cruell as I am reported to be, let this one tale suffice: there were at one time xxviii condempned to the fire, and I moved the Dean of Paules to tender and pity their estate, which after was Abbot of Westminster, a very pitiful minded man, I think the most part of you must know him - it is Mr. Fecknam - and we went up and perswaded with them, and we found them very tractable. And Mr. Fecknam and I laboured to the Lord Cardinal Poole, shewynge that they were nescientes quid fecerunt.
"The Cardinal and we did sue together to the Queen, and laid both swordes together, and so we obteyned pardon for them al, savynge an olde woman that dwelt about Paules churchyard; she would not convert and therefore she was burned. The rest of them received absolution, and that with al reverence; serch the Register and you shall finde it.
"Yea and it was by my procurement that there should be no more burnt in London, for I saw well it would not prevaile." ("A Declaration of the Lyfe and Death of John Story," imprinted at London by Thomas Colwell, 1571, and reprinted in Harleian Miscel. iii. 104.)
The "new torment," to which Foxe subsequently alludes, was "a cage of iron," which Story said, "if I live, I will have made for them (heretiques) with a doer on the side, where they shall be enclosed, and the doer made fast, and the fire to be made under them. And then, said he, they shall know what frying is, and their mouths shall be stopped from blowing out their pestilent doctrines."
This account of Story was drawn up, according to Sanders, a personal friend of the Doctor, by one of the noblemen present at his execution; "ut omnes intelligerent, tantas Joannis Storæi virtutes fuisse atque esse, ut neque post funera ejus ipsorum livor et invidia conquiescat" (De Visibili Monarchia, p. 738.)
