The next Monument is that of Bishop RICHARD NICKS, _alias_ Nix, or the Blind Bishop, being quite dark many Years before he died. He sat in this _See_ Thirty Six Years, in the Reigns of King _Henry_ VII. and _Henry_ VIII. The Arches are beautified above and beside it, where are to be seen the Arms of the _See_ of _Norwich_, _impaling_ his own, _viz._ a _Chevron_ between three _Leopards_ Heads. The same Coat of Arms is on the Roof of the _North_ and _South Cross Isle_; which Roofs he either rebuilt, or repair'd. The Tomb is low, and broad, and 'tis said there was an Altar at the bottom of the Eastern Pillar: The Iron-work, whereon the Bell hung, is yet visible on the Side of the Western Pillar. Then the Tomb of Bishop JOHN PARKHURST, with a legible Inscription on the Pillar, set up by Dean _Gardiner_, running thus. Johannes Parkhurst, _Theol. Professor_, Guilfordiæ _natus_, Oxoniæ _educatus, temporibus_ Mariæ _Reginæ pro Nitida conscientia tuenda_ Tigurinæ _vixit exul Voluntarius: Postea presul factus, sanctissime Hanc rexit Ecclesiam per 16 an. Obiit secundo die_ Febr. 1574. A Person he was of great Esteem and Veneration in the Reign of Queen _Elizabeth_. His Coat of Arms is on the Pillars, visible, at the going out of the Bishop's Hall. Between the two uppermost Pillars, on the same Side, stood a handsom Monument of Bishop EDMUND SCAMLER, thus. _Natus apud_ Gressingham, _in Com._ Lanc. SS. _Theol. Prof. apud_ Cantabrigienses. _Obiit Ætat._ 85. _an._ 1594 _nonis_ Maii. He was Houshold Chaplain to the Archbishop of _Canterbury_, and died 1594. The Monument was above a yard and half high, with his Effigies in Alabaster, and all enclosed with a high Iron Grate. In the late Times the Grate was taken away, the Statue broken, and the Free-stone pulled down as far as the inward Brick-work; which being unsightly, was afterwards taken away, and the Space between the Pillars left void, as it now remaineth. In the South-side of this Isle, according as the Inscription denoteth, was buried GEORGE GARDINER, sometime Dean. Georgius Gardiner Barvici _natus_, Cantabrigiæ _educatus, Primo minor Canonicus, secundo Præbendarius, tertio Archidiaconus_. Nordovici, _et demum_ 28 Nov. _An._ 1573. _factus est Sacellanus Dominæ Reginæ, et Decanus hujus Ecclesiæ, in quo loco per 16 Annos rexit_. Somewhat higher is a Monument for Dr. EDMUND PORTER, a learned Prebendary, sometime of this Church.
