The Circumcellians beset the way, which they knew St. Augustine was to go, that they might kill him; but he mistook his way, and so escaped their hands. In Queen Mary's days the Bishop of Winchester pursued Mr. John Fox the Martyrologist to Ipswich; the Bark in which he was, was newly gone out of the Haven, when the Messenger came to take him, and the next day by reason of storms forced to return thither again, the Messenger was departed. Since those days Mr. Parker a learned worthy Preacher was prosecuted by Archbishop Bancroft, for his Book against the Cross, &c. and the Archbishop having intelligence that he was in a Citizens House in London, thought he had him safe, sent one presently to watch at the door of the house, to see that none stirred out, till others came with authority to search it for Master Parker. The person sent, sat him down at the door, boasting that none should come out, but he would know who and what they were.
