Now Godwin, in his valuable work _De Presulibus_, states, that his body was buried under the high altar of St. Dunstan's, Canterbury. But in Winkle's _Cathedrals_ (London, 1836), vol. i. p. 38., we find Stow's account corroborated; for-- "The monument of Archbishop Sudbury, who was beheaded in 1381 [1382], is in the northern aisle, nearly parallel with the altar; it bears no effigy, but is surmounted by a sumptuous canopy of very elegant architectural design, but now much mutilated." Of course, the fact that his monument is in the cathedral, does not _prove_ that his body was buried there. I shall be glad to learn from any of your correspondents, what evidence there is for Godwin's assertion. Gostling, in his _Walk in and about the City of Canterbury_ (5th edit. Cant. 1804), though he mentions the prelate's benefactions to the cathedral (pp. 12. 79.), and his tomb (p. 220.), does not state his place of sepulture. At p. 60., however (note [++]), in a brief notice of St. Dunstan's Church, he says: "In a vault under the family chancel of Roper _here_ is kept a skull, said to be that of the great Sir Thomas More; it is in a niche of the wall, secured with an iron grate, though some say his favourite daughter, Margaret Roper, who lies here, desired to be buried with it in her arms. The vault being full, was closed up not many years since." This curious coincidence is at least worth noting. I trust that the interest necessarily attaching to any remains of so celebrated an historical personage, will prove a sufficient apology to your readers for the length of this note. W. SPARROW SIMPSON, B.A. PARAPHRASE ON THE LORD'S PRAYER. The following paraphrase of the Lord's Prayer may be worth printing with the Query, who was its author? I take it from the book of Mr. Walter Everenden, among Mr. Frewen's MSS., where it is ascribed to James I., whilst I believe that in a MS. book of ballads belonging to MR. J. PAYNE COLLIER it is ascribed to Bishop Andrews. "By the Kings Majestie.
