23. Edward Squire being in a ship on sea, taken by the 1Spaniards, and brought into Spain, was there suborned and directed by Richard Walpoole an English fugitive and a Jesuit to poison the Queen, by laying a strong poison (which the Jesuit there gave him) on the pommel of the saddle whereon the Queen should ride: that she laying her hand thereon, might carry the sent thereof to her nose, and thereby receive it into her body: which if she had done, it had been her death. Never any treason came so near to the execution as this. For the traitor Squire observed his direction, did the deed, and that, immediately before the Queen rid forth. But the divine providence kept her from touching the pommel with her hand. Yet the treason was discovered, and the traitor received condigne punishment.
