Wood. Sir, the trueth is, I was in never a house or Tavern, whiles I was abroad, but in the bishops house, as my keeper can, & will (I am sure) testify: nor I never talked with any man in the streets as I came, but with my keeper, saving with one man in deed, of the Parish of Framfield in Sussex, where M. James Gage dwelleth. His name is Rob. Smith, being one of my most enemies: who stood in a wane as we came by, and was unlading of Cheese (me thought) but a little way from the Marshalsea. In deed I bade him God speed, and asked him how he did: and he said, well, he thanked me: and he asked me how I did, and I said, well, I praise God: & that was all the talk that we had: & these words were spoken as I came by him. I promise you sir, I stood not still while I spake them, as my keeper can tell: and I think these words were no seditious words, but might be spoken well enough (I think) or else it were very strait.

Marshall. 1Then it is to be thought, that that man reported otherwise then it was. I am glad it is as you say. Well make you ready, for you must go forth straight way, where you shall be examined of that and of other things, where you shall answer for your self. Go make hast: for I will ary till you be ready.
