Winchester aforenamed to be present The Bishop of Winchester taketh his occasi● to worke his mischiefe as also at the Queenes takynge her leaue who verye well had printed in his memorie the kings sodaine interrupting of the Queene in her tale and falling into other matter and thoughte y t if the yron were beaten whilest it was hotte and that the kynges humoure were holpen suche misliking might followe towardes the Queene as might both ouerthrow her all her endeuors and only awaited some accasion to renewe into the kings memory the former misliked argument Hys expectatiō in that behalfe did nothing faile him For the king at y t time shewed himselfe no lesse prompt and ready to receiue any information then the bishop was maliciously bent to stir vp the kings indignation against her The king immediately vpon her departure from him vsed these or like wordes A good hearing quoth he it is when women become su●h Clerkes and a thing much to my comfort to come in mine olde dayes to be taught by my wife The Bishop hearing this The Bishop o● Winchester● wordes to th● king seemed to mislike that the Queene shoulde so much forget her selfe as to take vppon her to stand in any argument wyth his maiestie whom he to his face extold for his rare vertues and especially for his learned iudgement in matters of religion aboue not only Princes of that and other ages but also aboue Doctours professed in Diuinitie and sayde that it was an vnseemely thing for any of his maiesties subiects to reason and argue with him so malapartly and greuous to him for hys parte and other of his Maiesties Councellours and seruauntes to heare y e same and that they all by proofe knew his wisedome to be such that it was not nedeful for any to put him in mind of any such matters inferring moreouer how dāgerous and perillous a matter it is and euer hath bene for a Prince to suffer suche insolent woordes at hys subiectes hands who as they take boldnesse to contrary their soueraigne in wordes so want they no will but onely power and strength to ouerthwart them in deedes Besides thys Winchesters accusation against the Queene that the Religion by the Queene so stifly maintained did not onely disallow and dissolue the pollicie and politicke gouernment of Princes but also taught the people that all thynges oughte to be in cōmon so that what colour so euer they pretended theyr opinions were in deede so odious and for the Princes estate so perillous that sauing the reuerence they bare vnto her for hys Maiesties sake they durst be bolde to affirme that the greatest subiect in this lande speaking those woordes that shee dyd speake and defending those argumēts that she did defend had with indifferent iustice by law deserued death Howbeit for his part he would not nor durst not without good warrante from his Maiestie speake hys knowledge in the Queenes case althoughe very apparaunt reasons made for hym and suche as his duetifull affection towardes his Maiestie and the zeale and preseruatiō of hys estate would scarcely geue hym leaue to conceyue though the vttering thereof might thorowe her and her faction be the vtter destruction of hym and of suche as in deede dyd chiefly tender the Princes safetie wythout hys Maiestie would take vpon him to be their Protector and as it were theyr Buckler Whych if he would doe as in respect of hys owne safetye hee ought not to refuse he with others of hys faithfull Counsailours coulde wythin shorte time disclose such treasōs cloked with this cloke of heresy that his maiestie should easily perceiue how perillous a matter it is to cherish a Serpent within hys owne bosome Howbeit he would not for his parte willingly deale in the matter both for reuerent respect aforesaid and also for feare lest the faction was growen already too great there with the princes safetie to discouer the same And therewithall with heauie countenance and whispering together with them of y e secte there present he helde his peace Winchester abuseth the king with his flattering These and such other kindes of Winchesters flattering phrases marueilously whetted the king both to anger and displeasure towards the Queene and also to be ielous and mistrustfull of his own estate For the assuraunce whereof Princes vse not to be scrupulous to doe any thyng Thus then Winchester wyth his flattering woordes seeking to frame the kynges disposition after hys owne pleasure so farre crept into the king at that time and wyth doubtfull feares he with other his fellowes so filled the kyngs mistrustfull minde that before they departed the place the king to see belike what they would doe had geuen commandement with warrant to certaine of them made for y t purpose to consult together about the drawing of certaine articles against the Queene wherin her life might be touched which the king by their perswasions pretended to be fully resolued not to spare hauing any rigour or coloure of law to countenance the matter With this commission they departed for that time from the king resolued to put theyr pernicious practise to as mischieuous an execution Duringe the time of deliberation about thys matter they failed not to vse al kinds of policies How Winchester and his fellowes deuise against the Gospellers and mischieuous practises aswell to suborne accusers as otherwise to betray her in seeking to vnderstand what bokes by law forbidden shee had in her closet And the better to bring theyr purpose to passe because they would not vpon the sodaine but by meanes deale wyth her they thought it best at the first to begin with some of those Ladies whom they knew to be great with her and of her bloud The chiefest whereof as most of estimation and priuie to all her doings were these Lady Harbert the Lady Harbert afterwarde Countesse of Pembroke and sister to the Queene chiefe of her priuie chamber the Lady Lane being of her priuie chamber and also her cosine germane Lady Lane the Lady Tyrwit of her priuye chamber and for her vertuous disposition in very great fauour and credite with her Lady Tyrwitte It was deuised that these three aboue named shoulde first of all haue bene accused and brought to aunswer vnto the 6. articles and vpon their apprehension in the Courte their closet and coffers shoulde haue bene searched y t somewhat might haue bene found wherby the Queene myght be charged Winchesters plateforme which being found y e Queene her selfe presently should haue bene taken and likewise caried by barge by night vnto the Tower This platforme thus deuised but yet in the ende comming to no effecte the king by those aforesayde was foorthwith made priuie vnto the deuise by Winchester and Wrisley and his consent therunto demanded Who belike to prooue the byshops malice how farre it would presume like a wise politike Prince was contented dissemblingly to geue his consent and to alow of euery
