THE bishop dispatched his man towards London, October 23, who ever since hath been and is attendant in the same suit, for the obtaining the commission for proof of this matter against his adversaries.
THUS we have related the first trouble of this good bishop in king Edward's days, to give other bishops warning to be more circumspect, whom they should trust and have about them, Briefly, in few words to conclude this process, bishop Farrar, partly upon the importunate suit of his adversaries, partly upon the sinister and unfortunate fall of the good duke of Somerset, by whom he had been before promoted and maintained, having but small favour showed, was detained in prison till the death of king Edward, and the coming in of queen Mary and the popish religion, whereby a new trouble rose upon him, being now accused and examined for his faith and doctrine. The process of which his trouble here likewise followeth.
