¶The behauiour of D. Ridley at his supper, the night before his suffering.
1The night before he suffered, his beard was washed, and his legs, and as he sate at supper the same night at M. Irishes (who was his keeper) he had his hostess, and the rest at the board, to his marriage: for (saith he) to morrow I must be married, and so showed himself to be as merry as ever he was at any time before. And wishing his sister at his marriage, he asked his brother sitting at the Table, whether she could find in her heart to be there or no, and he answered,2 yea, I dare say, with all her heart: at which word he said, he was glad to hear of her so much therein. So at this talk mistress Irish wept.
