I answered, "He was not; yet nevertheless," quoth I, "he is a very honest man, and one that wisheth well that way." Then said the Cook, "Will you go up?" Hereby I understood that he would bring me to a Mass. Whereto I consenting, leaving DAVID JENKINS in the buttery, he brought me up: where, after one SATWELL alias FOORD had said Mass, CAMPION prepared himself to say Mass. And there was the first time that ever I saw CAMPION in all my life: not having heard by any that he was there in the house, before I was brought up into the chamber. * * * * * As concerning how he was taken, how he was brought up to London, and how all things passed in that service; I have already set down in my book imprinted: which conferring with his false report, you shall find it as much to differ as truth doth from falsehood. This have I thought good here to set down, in the reproof of him who hath published such a manifest untruth: and as concerning what I have reported to be spoken by PAYNE, I am ready at all times to justify it with my death, that they are his words according as he spake them.

The simpleness of the place caused them to use small suspicion in it: and [they] were departing out again; but one in the company, by good hap, espied a chink in the wall of boards whereto this shelf was fastened, and through the same he perceived some light. Drawing his dagger, he smit a great hole in it; and saw there was a room behind it: whereat the rest stayed, searching for some entrance into it; which by pulling down a shelf they found, being a little hole for one to creep in at.] The Copy of a Letter lately written in metre by a young Gentlewoman to her inconstant Lover.
