Chapter X: Part 10

Text size

Henry the Eighth erected a magnificent house on the scite of the
ancient one of St. Bride, for the reception of Charles the Fifth,
in 1522, and called it Bridewell. The king often lodged there, and
held a parliament in it in 1525. It was the residence of Katherine
in 1529, pending the proceedings relative to her divorce. Edward
the Sixth gave it to the corporation of the city of London for an
hospital. Why a person who pretended to have a title to it should
be rewarded with 20_s._ it is difficult even to guess.

----, 118, 122, 132.

Bridge, for a private, at York Place, 20, 82, 93, 109.

Cavendish, in his life of Wolsey, speaking of the Cardinal's
entertainments of Henry at York House, now Whitehall, says, "They
thereupon looking out of the windows into Thames, returned again
and showed him that it seemed to them there should be some noblemen
and strangers arrived at _his bridge_ as ambassadors from some
foreign prince." Ed. Singer, v. 1, p. 151. Whether it was this
bridge which Needham was paid for finishing in January, 1530,
is uncertain, but in July following he was employed to build a
_private_ bridge.

Briges Thomas, 249.

---- John, 171.

Broaches for, 82.

Broach with an amethyst, for a, 163, 262.

Broadheads for, 46.

Brockborow park, to the keeper of, 70, 162.

Apparently, Brogborough Park, near Amphill, in Bedfordshire.

Brokes Master, 154, 155.

Brombery park, to the keepers of, in reward and to their wives for
meat and drink, 238.

Query, if this be not intended for Brogborough Park.

Brooms brought, 159.

Brown John, a shooter, 65.

Query, a game-keeper.

Brown William, 227.

Brown ----, 115, 237.

Browne Sir Anthony, 7, 26, 46, 75, 92, 97, 148, 153.

This well known favourite of Henry the Eighth was some years
afterwards appointed Master of the Horse, and created a Knight of
the Garter, and died in 1540.

---- John, 201.

Bruges satin, doublets of, 23.

---- for, 222.

Bryan Sir Francis, 9, 60, 72, 76, 83, 209, 211, 212, 216, 232, 243,
_bis_, 244, 263, 274, 275, _bis_, 278.

Many of the entries respecting Sir Francis Bryan, one of the
brightest ornaments of Henry's court, tend to confirm the idea of
the intimacy between him and his sovereign. They show that he was
constantly the king's companion in his amusements at shovel board,
bowls, dice, primero, and other games; and on one occasion we find
50_l._ was given to his servant as "a token from the king to him,"
an expression which no where else occurs, and which, it would seem,
was a delicate manner of making him a pecuniary present. He was
the only son of Sir Thomas Bryan, who died in 1517, and was one
of Henry the Eighth's Gentlemen of the Bedchamber. Bryan was the
author of some sonnets which are inserted amongst those of the
Earl of Surrey; and he is consequently noticed by Dr. Nott, in his
elegant edition of that nobleman's productions. Hall also states
many curious facts respecting him, particularly of the loss of one
of his eyes at a tilting match.

Bryan, keeper of greyhounds, 58.

Bryce John, 155.

Bucks brought, 26, 49, 55, 60, _bis_, 67, 136, 150, 194, 229, 232.

----, paid to the guard for eating a, 156.

Why the guard should have been paid 40_s._ for eating a buck is not
easily explained. If the guard consisted of very few persons, it
might have been a sort of wager.

Buck, to the wife, where the king shot at a tame, 171.

Buckhounds, the king's private, 19.

----, for canvas to cover a cart for carrying the, 154.

When the king went to Ampthill, it seems that his hounds were sent
there also, for the purpose of hunting.

----, paid to the office of the, for killing the first buck, 157.

----, to the office of the, 161, 257.

Buckhunts, paid to the, 254.

So little is known of the regulations of this office, that the
Editor acknowledges himself ignorant of the cause of these payments.

Buckingham, 157, 242.

----, to the keeper of the house at, 242.

Buckram for, 223, _bis_.

---- at Westminster, for the king's, 228.

Henry's taste for building has been often noticed, and these
payments were for its gratification.

Bukworth ----, 229.

Bulloyne, [Bologne], 54.

Bulstrode Lady, 4, 36, 112.

fifteen shillings.

Bury, 81.

Business, the king's, money laid out for, by Thomas Alvord, 96.

----, to one sent on the king's, 252.

Bustards brought, 187.

Butter William, a keeper of Windsor Forest, 77, 128.

Buttons of gold for caps, 25, 33.

Butts Doctor, 262.

From the following passage in Cavendish's life of Wolsey, we
learn that he was one of the king's physicians. "At Christmas he
[Wolsey] fell sore sick that he was likely to die. Wherof the king
being advertised was very sorry therefore, and sent Doctor Buttes,
his grace's physician, unto him, to see in what estate he was."
Cavendish then gives a conversation between Henry and the Doctor
on the Cardinal's illness. Vol. i. pp. 220, 1, 2. There is also in
that valuable work an engraving of a contemporary illumination,
representing Butts receiving tokens of favour from Ann Boleyn for
Wolsey. Dr. Butts is honourably commemorated by Fox, as the friend
of Bishop Latimer. See also Gilpin's Life of Latimer, p. 42-45.

Butts, to a new pair of, 145, 148, 250.

Mounds of earth erected for the purpose of a target, against which
arrows were shot for amusement.

Byfield, to the repairs of the Bridge at, 97.

Byflete Park in Surrey, keeper of, 62, 148.

Query, Byfield in Northamptonshire.

Byrch ----, 253.

Byrde Henry, yeoman of the Bows, 53, 75, 107, 163, 180, 186, 248,
263, 265.

Cable, for an anchor, sail, &c., 262. See Anchor.

Caffa white, for, 134.

A rich stuff. "In his gallery there was set divers tables,
whereupon a great number of rich stuffs of silk in whole
pieces, of all colours, as velvet, satin, damask, _caffa_,
taffeta, grograine, sarcenet, and of other not in my
remembrance."--Cavendish, vol. i. p. 182.

Cakes brought, 52, 55, 63, 64, _sæpe_, 154, 155, 184, 228.

281, 283.

----, of the money that came from, 34.

----, a soldier of, 81.

----, Solicitor of the Staple of, 93.

"The Staple of Wool was fixed at Calais by Edward III. in
1362.--Ellis' _Letters_, Second Series, vol. ii. p. 2."--M.

at, 272.

Cambric, ells of, 84.

Cambridge, the Vice Chancellor of, 30.

John Watson.

----, to Mr. Latimer and other scholars of, 73.

This item is of much interest. Gilpin, in his life of Latimer,
says, that Dr. Butts, the king's physician, being sent to Cambridge
relative to the divorce, applied to Latimer for his opinion and
that of his friends upon the abstruse points in dispute, and
finding them favourable to his wishes, brought Latimer with him to
Court. It is possible that the entry in question referred to that
circumstance; but it is most probable from the words of it that
Latimer and the other scholars were afterwards sent for, instead of
accompanying Butts.

Candish, servant of the Duke of Suffolk, 26, 154, 251.

Candisshe, 58.

The gardener at Wanstede.

Cane staff, a, brought, 104.

Canterbury, 266, 273, 274.

Canvas, for, to cover the cart with the hounds, 154, 233.

Capell Sir Giles, 6, 10, 42, 181.

Ancestor of the present Earl of Essex. He was knighted for his
valour at the battle of Spurs, and is said to have attended Henry
to Calais in 1532.

Capon, a fat, given, 178.

Capons brought, 50, 181, 207, 220.

Caps. See Night and Riding.

---- for, 33, 283.

---- for the riding boys, 101.

----, riding described, paid for, 173.

Cards, money delivered to the king to play at, 113, 115.

----, money lost at, 272, 276, 278.

The use of Cards in England was very common long before the period
here alluded to, and it is only necessary to refer those who wish
for ample information, to Mr. Singer's interesting inquiries
on the subject. The following notices had however escaped his
researches, though one of them is alluded to in a letter in the
appendix to his work. In the 1 Edward IV. 1461, it was enacted,
"that noo lord nor other personne of lower astate condicion or
degree, whatsoever he be, suffer any Dicyng or pleiyng at _Cardes_
within his hous or elles where he may be let it, of any of his
servauntes or other oute of the xij dayes of Cristmasse, and yf
any presume to doo the contrarie at any tyme that he avoyde hym
oute of his hous and service." It is then provided that, "noon
Hosteler, Tavener, Vitailler, Artificer or Housholder or other use
any such play or suffre to be used any such play in their houses or
elleswhere upon payne of prisonement and other arbitrarie at the
kynges wille."--_Rot. Parl._ vol. 5, p. 488. In the 3 and 4 Edw.
IV. 1463-4, "_Cardes_ for pleiyng" were forbidden to be imported
and sold in this Country, "upon peyne to forfeit theym."--_Ibid._
p. 507. In the 12th and 14th years of the same monarch, in a
statute respecting the scarcity of bow staves it is said, "that
the occupation of shotyng is thus discontynued and almost lefte,
and the said Yomen in defaute of such Bowes, nowe usen unlawfull
occupations as pleiyng at the _Cardes_, Dise plaiyng," &c.--_Ibid._
vol. vi. p. 156. The games at which Henry played appear to be
Primero and Imperial. "Specimens of the court cards of a pack of
the time of Henry VII. are given in Strutt's _Sports and Pastimes_,
from the originals in the possession of Francis Douce, Esq."--M*.

Cardinal, a servant of the, 103.

It is too generally known to require repetition, that when Wolsey
fell into disgrace, the king seized upon all his effect. This item
informs us that the servant who brought the Cardinal's chariot
horses received 20_s._

----'s goods, the expenses of a ship for bringing the, 112.

This entry must refer to the expenses of bringing such part of the
Cardinal's effects as were either at York or Winchester; but most
probably the former, in which case it may be concluded that they
were shipped at Hull.

----, to Sir William Kingston for his expenses when he was sent to
bring up the, 115.

Sir William Kingston was sent by Henry to bring up, or in fact to
take the Cardinal into custody, in November 1530, and found him at
Sheffield Park, under the _surveillance_ of the Earl of Shrewsbury.
The particulars of his interview and subsequent proceedings, until
death released his prisoner from the fangs of his tyrannical
master, on Tuesday the 29th of that month, are fully related by
Cavendish.--_Ed. Singer_, vol. i. p. 302, _et seq._ Kingston's
expenses on that journey were, it seems, 41_l._ 10_s._ 10_d._; but
which were not paid him until the ensuing March.

Cardinal, paid for silk, for the, 116.

This entry must have referred to a transaction which took place
many months before.

----'s plate and stuff, paid people for attending to the, 123.

----'s stuff for keeping the, 126.

We learn from this entry that Edward Lloyd, a person belonging
to the king's wardrobe, was entrusted with the charge of all the
Cardinal's goods. See also the item on the subject in p. 112, which
has just been noticed.

Carew Sir Nicholas, 119, _bis_.

A Knight of the Garter, Master of the Horse, and Lieutenant of
Calais. He was, says the most elegant of living biographers,
"Henry's constant companion in all the splendid and romantic
sports of his court, administered successfully to his pleasures,
and was not without some secret share in his councils."--_Lodge's
Illustrious Portraits._ Carew, however, like so many of his
contemporaries, afterwards incurred the royal displeasure, and
that displeasure was, in his case too, but the prelude to disgrace
and death. He was arrested upon a suspicion of high treason, and
beheaded on the 3rd March, 1539. He married Elizabeth, the sister
of Sir Francis Bryan, who has been before mentioned in these
notes, by whom he left issue. Whether it was this lady or her
mother-in-law, Magdalen, daughter of Sir Robert Oxenbridge, widow
of Sir Richard Carew, who is alluded to in the following entry, is
not certain, but most probably the latter.

---- Lady, 6.

Carpenter, to Needham, the king's, 82, 93, 109, 138.

---- labour, for, 234.

Carpes brought, 62, 74, 100, 267.

Carriage the, that came from Oxford, 3.

What "the Carriage" was which is here mentioned is unknown.

Carriage of deer, for the, 19.

---- of nets, for the, 52.

---- of boys to Bury, 81.

---- of the king's stuff, paid for the, 58, 159.

Carrier, a dog given, which was a, 251.

Evidently a dog which had been taught to fetch and carry.

Cart, paid for a, and things belonging to it, 154, 156.

---- with the hounds for covering &c., for the, 233, 234.

Carter John, a waterman, 47, 155, 164, 169, 181, 182, 193, 197, 201,
208, 211, _ter_, 215, 247, 262, 266, 270, 277, 278, 279, _bis_,
281.

Carters, to the, that came from Oxford, 3.

Cary Thomas, 10, 59, 67, 81, 143, 144, 145, 226.

The greater part of these entries relate to money given "in
reward," but two or three of them are of shooting money, whence it
may be inferred that he was "one of the shooters" or game keepers.

---- John, 41.

Cast of Lanretts brought, 141, 149.

A cast of lannerets, is a couple or set of hawks.--_See Lannerett,
infra._

---- of Falcons brought, 198.

A couple of falcons.

Catalogue of books brought, 89. See Books.

Cavalcant John, apparently a merchant, 144, 198.

Cawsham Park, to the keeper of, 249.

Caversham Park, in Oxfordshire.

Cecill Richard, Groom of the Robes, 4, 8, 68, 159, 168, 274.

The father of William the first and celebrated Lord Burleigh. He
was Groom and afterwards Yeoman of the Robes, and received several
grants of lands from Henry the Eighth. He died in May, 1552.

Cele, _vide_ Seal.

Cellar, Serjeant of the, 24, 32, 113, 115, 190, 216, 278.

Only two of these entries relate to expenses connected with this
individual's official situation. The others were payments of money
lost to him by the king at dice, cards, and bowls, excepting on
one occasion, when money was paid him to be His Majesty's partner
at one of these games. It is thus manifest that he enjoyed a
large share of the king's personal favour. His name has not been
precisely ascertained. Richard Hill, whose widow remarried Sir John
Mason, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, was Serjeant of the
Cellar in this reign, but in what years is uncertain.

----, the king's privy wine laid in, 182.

Cellaring wine, paid for, 98, 99, _bis_.

Chadwyke Peter, embroiderer, 103.

Chain, for a gold, 103.

----, for a, 268.

----, to a groom of the, 157, 159, 204.

Chamberlain, Lord, 5, 13, 60, 61, 152, 189, 272.

Chambers Doctor, 194, 243.

A Physician.

Chancellor of France, 48.

Chape, a, for knives, paid for, 168.

A Chape, is explained in Todd's Johnson to be "the catch of any
thing by which it is held in its place, as the hook of a scabbard
by which it sticks in the belt; the point by which a buckle is
held to the back-strap;" also, "a brass or silver tip or case
that strengthens the end of the scabbard of a sword." "'Chape' is
sometimes applied to the hook of a scabbard, and at others to what
is by Heralds termed the crampet, in which case the other metallic
pieces on the scabbard are called Lockets. Chape like Chapter,
seems to be derived from Caput."--M*.

Chapel, Master Cole, Subdean of the kings, 13, 82.

---- feast, for the, 64, 242.

----, stuff for washing the, 93.

The surplices, vestments, &c.

---- men, to the, 149.

----, to the hermit of Deptford, to repair his, 150.

----, to the Dean of the king's, for the chapel feast, "the old
ordinary reward," 242.

Chapman keeper of the garden at Hamptoncourt, 63, 68, 249, 253.

Chariot horses, brought, 103.

Doctor Percy in his notes on The Northumberland Household Book
conjectures that a chariot "bore no resemblance to the modern
carriage of that name, nor was intended for the same use, but was
simply a large waggon drawn by six or seven of the stronger kind
of horses, called, on that account, 'large trotting horses.'"
Mr. Markland, in his dissertation on Carriages in England,
_Archæologia_, vol. xx. p. 405, coincides with the view taken
of the point by Bishop Percy, and has cited several proofs in
confirmation of it. Unfortunately the entry in question throws no
light on the point, for the words "the chariot horses," might be
used in the modern acceptation or in that of those gentlemen, who
are however borne out in their opinion by the authorities which
they have adduced, and which are farther supported by the will of
Bartholomew Lord Burghersh, in 1369, who speaks of the "chariot"
which shall carry his corpse to the grave. Humphrey, Earl of
Hereford, in 1861, left legacies to his "vj charetters."

Charity, _vide_ Alms.

Chartesaye, _i. e._ Chelsea, 77, 148, _bis_, 253.

Chamley Master, 280.

"Chast greyhounds," the king's brought, 58, 174.

What was meant by the king's chaste greyhounds is difficult to
explain. That certain part of the greyhounds should be confined to
perpetual chastity, is not a little curious, if such was the fact;
but might not the word chaste have been used for "chace," _i. e._
greyhounds kept for the sole purposes of coursing, as distinguished
from those which were admitted to the parlour, and to the presence
of their royal master?

Chelsea, _vide_ Chartesaye.

Cherries brought, 47, 56, _bis_, 57, 58, 143, 145, 148, _bis_, 225,
_bis_, 228, 231, 232.

Cheses, Lanthony brought, 220.

---- brought, 4, 6, 49, 53, 89, 91, 154, 173, 237, 277.

Chess tables and men, 81.

Chest, paid for a, 138, 234.

---- for the hand guns, for a, 159.

Cheyney John, 46.

---- Sir Thomas, 6, 10, 238, 216, 265.

The Governor of Rochester Castle, and afterwards a Knight of the
Garter, Warden of the Cinque Ports, and Treasurer of the Household
to Edward the Sixth. In the 12th Hen. VIII. he was one of the
Challengers against all gentlemen in feats of arms for thirty
days, at the meeting of the Cloth of Gold, and as is evident from
one of these entries, was frequently admitted to the society, and
stood high in the favour of Henry, who it would seem, from the next
entry, stopped at his house in Kent, on his road to Calais, in
1532. He died in 1559.

----'s park, to the keeper of, and to his servants, 266, _bis_.

Chickens brought, 126, 131, 193, 207, 215, 218, 229, 230, 242, 255,
264.

Child, to a poor, that the king's grace healed, 150.

----, for the board of, 28.

---- of the stable, 29.

----, paid to one for his expenses on his journey to provide, 140.

---- of the stable, for gere, for the, 182.

----, to a poor man that had thirteen, 93.

----, to the Master of the, 287, 291.

From the ordinances made at Eltham, for the regulation of the
household, it appears, that he was the head of the "Gentlemen of
the Chapel," and was allowed 30_l._ per annum for his wages.

----, expenses for the, 268. See Boys.

Chippings for hounds, paid for, 7, 19, 24, 45, 49.

Fragments for their food.

Choristers of Windsor, 58, 140, 214.

Christening of a child, paid on the, 106, 117, 136, 145.

It may perhaps be inferred that on each of these occasions the king
was one of the sponsors.

Christmas, money given against, 11, _bis_.

Christopher, Milliner, 25, 63, 65, 76, 99, 151, 173, _bis_.

Citrons brought, 80.

Clamp Nicholas, a falconer, 17, 30, 34, _ter_, 38, 42, 71, _ter_, 85,
_ter_, 95, _sæpe_, 129, _ter_, 130, _ter_, 181, 192, 198, 200,
221, 280, 285, 287, 288, _ter_.

All of these numerous entries were either payments of his wages or
for food for the hawks.

---- Philip, 3, 38, 287.

Clayton the baker, 50.

Clays, a minstrel, 134.

Clerk of the Closet, 90.

---- of the Kitchen, 116.

---- of the Beds, wardrobe of the, 183.

Cleyton, 115.

---- Samson, 209.

Cloak, paid for a, for Lady Ann, all the materials of which are
minutely noticed, 222, 223.

The manner in which even the most trifling article connected with
this cloak is mentioned is not a little amusing. The whole expence
attending it was 9_l._ 4_s._ 8_d._

Clock, to the keeper of, at Hampton Court, 26.

----, paid for a, 16, 51, 62, 65, 91, 109, 189.

----, for mending, 58, 68, 92.

---- brought, 109, 135.

----, paid to the Astronomer, for mending a, 130.

----, for a, in a case of gold, 161.

----, for the expenses of keeping the, at Hamptoncourt, 194.

---- cases, for, 199.

Clockmaker, to Vincent the, 93.

----, to the, 94, 245, 252.

---- of Westminster, to the, 58, 68, 82, 120, 197.

----, paid the French, 189.

----, to a, 215, _bis_.

About the reign of Henry the Eighth clocks became a favourite
article of luxury, and these entries shew the heavy sums which
that monarch spent in the purchase of them. At the royal palaces
of Hampton Court and Westminster it seems a person was specially
appointed to regulate the clocks. "We have the price of a clock
at a very early period, anno 1292, _novum orologium magnum in
Ecclesiâ (Cantuariensi) pretium_, 30_l._"--Dart's Cant. App. p. 3.
"Mr. Walpole has in his possession a clock, which appears by the
inscription to have been a present from Henry VIII. to Anne Boleyn.
Poynet, Bishop of Winchester, gave an astronomical clock to the
same king.--Buckman's _His. Invent._ vol. i. p. 454."--M.

Closet, the King's, a gelding for, 9.

Coats, for, 38, 40, 49, 66, 81, 95, 98, 119, 126, 132, 147, 225, 240,
_bis_, 277, 281.

----'s, trussing, for a pair of, 49, 81.

----, two, belonging to the king, brought to Westminster, 208.

Coffer of Cypress wood, a, 184.

Cypress seems to have been held in much esteem for boxes from an
early period. We find that John of Gaunt, in 1397, speaks of "a
little box of Cypress wood," in his will. The following extract
from "an account of Church Plate Money, Gold, and Silver Images,"
&c. delivered to Henry the Eighth, printed in "Memoirs of the
Antiquities of Great Britain, relating to the Reformation," from
the original, in the Bodleian Library, is a curious illustration
of "Coffers."--"Paid, William Grene, the King's Coffer Maker for
makyng of a coffer, covered with fustyan of Naples and beinge full
of drawe boxes lyned with red and grene sarcynet to put in stones
of diverse sorts vj _li._ xviij _s._ j_d._ And to Cornelys the lock

Christopher Lord Conyers, who succeeded his father in that dignity,
in 1529, and died in 1538.

Coo Christopher, 170.

Cook, to Sir Anthony Browne's, 148.

The payment of 20_s._ in reward to Sir Anthony Brown's cook, must
be considered to have arisen from his having on some occasion
peculiarly gratified the king's palate.

Copartners. See Partners.

Copeland, of London, a mercer, 9, 18.

Cords, for, 159.

Cordener (Cordwainer), to the, 109, 126, 153, 179, 183, 197, 219.

Cornelius Hays.

---- of the Tower, 186.

Costardmonger, to the, 97, 100, 109.

Cots, for deer, 17.

Though the word appears to be so written, and is therefore thus
printed, there can be little doubt from the context and from other
entries, that it was meant to be "oots," oats.

Cotton, 51.

---- George, 118, 134, 137.

Cottons, to the three, for sets lost to them at Greenwich, 143, _bis_.

It does not appear in what rank of life either George or the two
other Cottons were, but all these entries relate to money won by
them of the king at shooting.

----, paid for several yards of, 70, 159.

----, for lining the king's boat, 182. See Boat.

----, paid for to truss plate, 190.

Cow, paid for one killed, by greyhounds, 74.

The value of a cow, in 1530, seems to have been ten shillings.

Cowley, 207.

Cowpar, a falconer, 162.

Course, a, won of the king, 220.

Evidently a race won by Sir James Pickering against his dog, on
which Henry seems to have betted 2_l._ 5_s._

Coyves for the king, 84.

Coifs; linen bought, perhaps for night caps, or to wear under his
bonnet.

Crabs, brought, 46.

Crane, Master William, 33, 52, 76, 83, 98, 100, 140, 227, 287, 291.

Cranes brought, 85, 187, 188, 300.

A crane was a favourite article of food, and formed an important
dish at all great dinners.

Crepyne, or Cryspyn, John, jeweller, 4, 179, 210, 280.

Cromer Doctor, 137.

Cromwell Master, 101, 224, 261, 267, _ter_, 268.

This individual was afterwards the celebrated Earl of Essex. It is
well known that he was taken into Henry's service on the fall of
his former master, Wolsey, and was Knighted in the year when his
name first occurs in these accounts, after which time he made rapid
progress in the King's favour. These entries respecting Cromwell
add in no other way to what is recorded of him, than as they
confirm the opinion that he was frequently employed on services
which were of a secret nature. The one relating to the payment of
the king's tomb will be more fully noticed elsewhere, and in June,
1532, we find him presenting Henry with "Sucado and marmalade;" but
the most remarkable entries are of large sums paid to him "by the
king's commandment," without mentioning for what purposes. Indeed,
on one occasion, there is a particular appearance of mystery in
the disbursement. It is a payment to the king's jeweller of 46_l._
13_s._ 4_d._, "Maister Cromwell knowing to what use it should be
employed unto." The entries alluded to all occur in October, 1532,
and the sums paid to him amounted to 826_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._, which
may be supposed to have been privately expended at Boulogne, in
relation to the interview with the French Monarch; but it must be
remembered that Henry is, by some writers, supposed to have married
Anne Boleyn early in the November following; hence, it is possible
that these payments were in some way connected with that event.

Crossbows, Giles, yeoman of the, 24, 98, 180, 194.

----, groom of the, 25, 70, 180, 287.

Crossbow, forked heads for a, 67.

"These, in the time of Henry the Eighth, were confined to the
chase. A specimen is preserved in the collection of Mr. Meyrick,
and which is engraved in Skelton's _Illustrations_. The bow of the
cross bow used with this arrow was wood instead of steel. See the
representation of Maximilian I. in Derweiss Kunig." M.

----, a, brought, 83.

Crowns of the Rose.

Coined by Henry the Eighth in 1526, and were current for four
shillings and sixpence.

---- of the Sun.

current in this country for four shillings and sixpence.

Cryspin John, a jeweller, 170, 210. _Vide_ Crepye.

Cucumbers brought, 72, 163, 241, 242, 250, 264.

Cupboards, for, with and without Ambreys, 93.

This entry is more particularly noticed under "Ambrys," but a few
words will here be said on the word "Cupboard." Some grounds exist
for considering that it formerly meant a very different piece of
furniture than a "case with shelves," as Dr. Johnson describes
it, and as it is explained by Archd. Nares. The entry referred to
in these accounts, it is true, appears to have been of an article
resembling a modern cupboard; but it is by no means certain that
such is the fact. From the following passage it would seem that the
word was used for a kind of closet. Speaking of Lord Shrewsbury
having appeared before the Privy Council of Queen Elizabeth to
vindicate himself from some charges brought against him, a writer
of the period says, "Yet, for that he did so instantly require to
have their aunswere to that which he had propounded, his Lordship
was desired to withdrawe himselfe from the table to the _cupbord_,
which he did, and so uppon some consultacion amonge the reste of
their Lordships then sittinge, his Lordship beinge agayn called to
his place, it was," &c.--_Lodge's Illustrations_, vol. ii. p. 298.
It could scarcely have been meant that Shrewsbury merely quitted
the Council table and went to where the cupboard was placed, at a
distant part of the room. The following extract however does not
support the opinion, that a cupboard was a closet; but it could
not have resembled the modern piece of furniture of that name.
Cavendish, speaking of the chamber in which Cardinal Wolsey died,
says "the windows being close shut, having wax lights burning
_upon the cupboard_," &c. vol. i. p. 318. It is quite certain
that an article called a cupboard was sometimes moveable. Robert
Frevyll, by his will dated in 1521, gives his son John, among other
articles, "a stone cobard in the hall."--_Testamenta Vetusta_, vol.
ii. p. 575. Hall thus uses the word. "The Dutchmen bring over iron,
tymber, lether, and weynskot ready wrought, as nayles, lockes,
basketts, _cupbordes_, stools, tables, chestes, gyrdels with
poyntes," &c. p. 587. In the account of the furniture of Henry the
Eighth's palaces, in the _Harleian_ MS., 1419, the word "cuppbord"
frequently occurs; and the following extract supports the opinion,
that it did not resemble the article now known by that name. "Item,
one large cuppbord carpet of grene clothe of gold, with workes
lyned with bockeram, conteyning in lengthe three yards iij q'ters,
and three bredthes of the same cloth of gold," f. 20.

Curcean Nicholas, 215.

Dacres Lord, of the North, 206, _bis_.

succeeded to that title on the death of his father in 1525, and
died in November, 1563.

---- Lord, of the South, 211.

Thomas Fienes, Lord Dacre. He succeeded his grandfather in 1484,
and died in 1534.

Damask crimson, ingrain, 87.

---- for green, 223.

Damsons brought, 65, 66, 243.

Dancing-dog, paid to a fellow with a, 188.

Darcy lord, 104, 160.

Thomas Darcy. He was summoned to Parliament as Lord Darcy in 1509,
and became a Knight of the Garter; but having delivered Pontefract
castle to the rebels under Robert Aske, he was arraigned on a
charge of high treason, found guilty, and beheaded on the 20th
June, 1538.

---- Sir Arthur, 117, 136.

Second son of Lord Darcy just mentioned. Dugdale says, that in
September, 1534, he was made captain of Jersey, and in the 5 Ed.
VI. Lieutenant of the Tower of London. It is singular, that in
the only instances in which he is noticed in these accounts, it
should be on similar occasions, the repayment of money which he had
disbursed at christenings. He died in 1561, s. p.

Darell Lady, 50, 91.

Dart-heads for, 251.

Datchet, [Co. Bucks,] to the feryman at, 35, 54, 146, 252.

Dates brought, 203.

Daunce Sir John, 112, 113, 114.

David St. money given for keeping his feast, 28, 114, 197.

These were probably gifts to Welshmen, to enable them to celebrate
the feast of their tutelar saint. In Mr. Ellis's _Original
Letters_, First Series, v. i. p. 273, the following notice occurs
among the expences of the Household of the Princess Mary between
1536 and 1545, and which tends to illustrate these entries: "Item,
geven amongs the yeomen of the King's guard, bringing a leke to my
lady's Grace on Saynt David's day, xv_s._"--M.

Davy Hugh, servant to the Princess Mary, 148.

---- Little, 144.

----, with a slit nose, 64.

This elegant soubriquet seems to have been used to distinguish him
from Hugh Davy and little Davy--all of whom had perhaps the same
baptismal name.

---- the footman, paid for his burial expenses, 172.

---- the footman's wife, to, 176.

A gratuity given to the widow of the servant whose burial expenses
are just mentioned.

Dawson Thomas, 108.

---- Marshall of the king's hall, 191, 243.

Dean Sub, of the king's Chapel, to the, 46, 64, 149.

Deboyen Baron, in Ireland, 136.

It is difficult to say who was the individual referred to. The only
name at all resembling it in the Irish Peerage, about the period,
is Dunboyne; but that title was not conferred until 1537, six years
after the date in question, when Sir Edmund Butler was so created.

Deer gelded, a, brought, 13.

---- "Quick," brought, 16.

Deer with young.

----, for taking and removing, 19.

Deptford, 31.

Deptford, the smith of, 40.

----, to the hermit of, 150, _bis_.

Derby Earl of, 168, 256.

Edward Stanley, third Earl of Derby, to which title he succeeded
in 1521, and died in 1574. The first entry is of 3_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._
paid at the christening of his lordship's son on the 4th October,
1531. The Earl had issue four sons, but as the date of their births
does not occur in the peerages, it is impossible to say to which
this item referred.

Desk a, garnished with laten and gold, 123.

Dessefort Anthony, a brush merchant, 243.

Dials for, 65, 91.

Dice, money given to the king to play at, and money lost by him at,
20, 32, 243, _bis_, 246, 248, 267, 268, 270, 271, 278.

Dice has been a favourite amusement in this country for many
centuries, and Mr. Singer, in his interesting volume on Playing
Cards, gives many curious particulars on the subject. Under the
word "Cards" _ante_, extracts from the statutes restricting the use
of them in the reign of Edward IV. have been inserted, to which the
following from the Rolls of Parliament, of the 2 Hen. IV. 1410, may
be an acceptable addition. The Commons prayed that servants and
labourers who offended against the statute prohibiting them to play
at "Coites, _dys_, gettre de Peer, Kayles, and autres tieux Jeues,"
should be enforced; to the enactments in which that Parliament
added a punishment of six days, whilst such Mayors as neglected
to enforce it were to be fined 20_s._ and Constables 6_s._
8_d._--Vol. iii. p. 643. In the 17 Ed. IV. 1477, a statute was
enacted prohibiting "newe ymagined pleys called Closshe, Keyles,
half Bowle, Handyn and Handowte, and Queke borde," it was recited
that "the Lawes of the Lond" forbad "any unlawful plays, as _Dise_,
Coyte, Fote ball, and such like Plays, but that every person myghty
and able in bodie should use his bowe by cause that the defense of
this lond stondeth much by archers."

Diet [food] of geldings, for the, 107, 114.

---- for little Guilliam's, 114.

---- of horses, for the, 32.

Ditch and hedge, for making a, at Greenwich Park near the Lodge, 194.

Dobinson John, 91, 129, 175, 204, 216, 247, 279.

A person attached to the stable, probably a groom.

Dodisworth Walter, 160, 162, 165, 167, 171, 176, 180, 181, 187, 194,
197, 205, 210, 215, 222, 226, 229, 236, 241, 244, 246, 251, 265,
275, 281, 282.

A huntsman.

---- William, his funeral expenses paid, 141.

Does brought, 7, 42, 92, _bis_, 94, 107.

Dogs called "Cut" and "Ball," for finding, 43, 108.

---- brought, 13, 156.

----, paid to a person for making dogs draw water, 67.

This is the second entry relative to dogs being taught to perform
certain tricks, for a dog has been before spoken of "that was a
carrier."

----, collars and muzzles for, 186.

Dog-chain, for a, 94.

----, a race run against a, 220.

Dome man, _i. e._ Dumb man to the, 108, 176.

Domingo, 17, 32, 33, 37, 190, 204, 205, 267, 270.

This individual is thus noticed by Skelton:

----al his trust hanges
In Balthosor, which healed
_Domingo's_ nose, that was wheled:
That Lumberdes nose mean I
That standeth yet awry,
It was not healed alderbest.
It standeth somwhat on the west,
I meane _Domingo Lomelyn_
That was wonte to win
Muche money of the Kyng
At the cardes and haserding.
Balthasor that healed _Domingo's_ _n_ose
From the puskilde pocky pose, &c.

Skelton's Poems, "Why come ye not to Court," Ed. 1736, p. 175.

The above extract presents us with the surname of Domingo, states
that he was a Lombard, and had been under the professional care of
Dr. Balthazar. Most of the entries in which he is mentioned relate
to payments of money that he had won from the king at cards and
dice, and which in less than three years amounted to above 620_l._
As the circumstance is alluded to by Skelton, the accuracy of that
part, at least, of his account of Domingo is established. He was,
like Palmer and others, one of Henry's "diverting vagabonds," and
seems to have accompanied His Majesty wherever he went, for we find
that he was with him at Calais in October, 1532.

Dompue, to one who rode two horses at once, 218.

This word does not occur in any of the usual Glossaries of
Dictionaries. In the absence of any thing positive as to its
meaning, a conjecture may be hazarded, and if erroneous perhaps
forgiven. "Domter un cheval" is to break in a horse. Might not then
a _Dompue_ or _Dompne_, for it is doubtful in which way the word is
spelt, mean a horse breaker, and which would fully agree with the
sense in which it is here used?

Donne Sir Edward, 67.

Dorset Marchioness of, 149.

Probably Margaret, widow of Thomas Grey, Marquess of Dorset, K.G.
who died in 1530.

Doublets for, 3, 11, 23, _bis_, 39, 51, 54, 87, 98, 119, 136, 199,
277, 281, _bis_.

Douglas Master, 163.

Douglas Lady Margaret, 98, 183, 281.

The king's niece. See ANGUS.

"Dove," to the wife of the, 72, 97.

To the woman who kept an inn with the sign of the Dove. Both these
entries are to the same purpose, of money paid for linen cloth for
Anne Boleyn, and which amounted to 23_l._ between September and
December, 1530.

Dover, paid into the king's hand for his offering to our Lady of the
Rock of, 273.

----, 273, _sæpe_.

---- Prior of, 223.

---- Castle, paid for carrying the king's stuff to, 274.

All these entries relate to money expended at Dover, when Henry
landed there on his return from France in November, 1532.

Draper ----, 129.

BOAT.

Drinking money, paid the king's watermen for, 174.

Drombeslade, to Christopher and his fellowe, 250.

----, to two, 214.

A Dromslade is explained by Dr. Burney to be a species of
Drum:--"And there they weere set forthe be five in a ray with
standards born a fore them and _drounslats_ playing afore them alle
the way."--Fragment of a Chronicle, temp. Hen. VIII. _Cotton._ MSS.
Vespasianus, A. xxxv.

Drulardy, a Frenchman, 65.

Dumb man, to a, 108, 176.

Durisme, [Durham,] Bishop, of 46.

Cuthbert Tunstall, who was translated to Durham from London in
March, 1530. He was deprived in 1552, restored in 1553, again
deprived in 1559, and died in November, in the same year, aged
eighty-five.

Durisme, i.e. Durham House, 217.

Dyatter, i.e. dieter of the king's geldings, 29.

Dyngley Doctor, 8, 90.

Dyso John, 122, _bis_.

One of the king's watermen.

Edgcombe Sir Piers, 153.

Ancestor of the present Earl of Mount Edgcombe. He was made a
Knight of the Bath at the creation of Prince Arthur in 1489, and a
Knight Banneret at Therouenne, and died on the 14th August, 1539.
The entry relating to him is of 7_l._ 14_s._ paid to his servants
for bringing two prisoners from Cornwall to London. A similar
payment was made to him in 1491, "Item, to the servants of Piers
Edgecombe that brought unto us two prisoners, fyve marks." Ellis's
_Original Letters_, 2nd Series, vol. i. p. 173.

Emperor, embassy to the, 19. Lord Herbert says, on the "8th
December, 1529, he (the king) writ letters with his own hand to the
bishop of Worcester and Sir Gregory Casilis, then with the Pope, to
tell them that he had sent Sir Thomas Bolen, newly created Earl of
Wiltshire and Ormond, with John Stokesley, elect bishop of London,
and Edward Lee, as his ambassadors to the Emperor," on the subject
of the divorce. The payment of the money for their expences was not
however made until the 24th January following. We here learn that
it amounted to 743_l._ 8_s._

Emyson, Sexton's servant, 11, 94, 120, 138, 193.

Enfield chase, the rangers and keeper of, 74.

---- Park, to the keeper of, 65, 153.

Eton, to poor women of, 36.

----, the provost of, 52, 55, 58, 63, 64.

Each of these entries excepting one, are of payments to the servant
of the Provost for bringing cakes to the king, for the making of
which we may infer that his servant was celebrated.

Evans John, a falconer, 37, 38, 51, _ter_, 78, _bis_, 110, 116, 133,
_bis_, 140, _bis_, 141, 144, 171, 185, 212, 227, _bis_, 259, 278,
286, 287, 291.

All these entries were of payments for his wages, board wages, or
for food for the hawks in his custody.

Evans Thomas, 187.

Everingham John, a waterman, 48, 108.

Evesham, abbot of, 116.

Exeter, bishop of, 213.

John Voysey, dean of Windsor. He was appointed to that See in
August 1519, and resigned it in 1551.

Exeter, Marquess of, 61, 62, _bis_, 149, 152.

Henry Courtenay, eleventh earl of Devon, who was elevated to the
Marquisate of Exeter in 1525. This distinguished nobleman was the
son of William, Earl of Devon, by Katherine, youngest daughter of
King Edward the Fourth, and was consequently first cousin to Henry,
a relationship which placed him much too near to the crown to be
compatible with his safety; and, in 1538, he was suspected of high
treason. Suspicion was then equivalent to guilt, and the Marquess
was beheaded on Tower Hill, on the 9th of January 1539. "Of all
victims of the jealous tyrant," the elegant Gibbon justly remarks,
"the Marquess of Exeter is one of the most noble and guiltless."
The entries in these accounts throw no light upon his character,
nor are they of much interest, for they consist merely of rewards
to his servants, or bringing presents of hounds to the King.

Eyred, for bringing a hawk that was, 60.

"To eyre," in falconry, is to build or rather to brood; hence we
must infer that this entry related to a hawk that had been hatched
at Elmley.

Falcons, for taking up, 20, 24, 187.

----, paid for, 9, 10, 92.

These items afford much information on the value of falcons at the
period. Two falcons and a goshawk cost 3_l._ Five falcons and a
tarsell were worth 8_l._ and five falcons 7_l._ 6_s._ 8_d._; so
that the value of a tarsell was about 13_s._ 4_d._

---- brought, 87, 184, 198.

Falconer, paid to a, 129.

---- to, for their coats, 142.

----, and hawks given by the King of France, for the expences of the,
275, 279.

Falcons and hawks appear to have been the most frequent, as well as
most valued presents, from one prince to another. These accounts
present two instances of the kind, the one of the payment of 23_l._
6_s._ 8_d._ to the bearer of a cast of falcons from the Duke of
Ferrara, and the other of a gift of several to Henry, from Francis
the First, at Calais. Upon that occasion falconers seem also to
have been transferred to Henry's service; for we find a payment
of 2_l._ 2_s._ 8_d._ for their exences, (p. 275) whilst some idea
may be formed of the number of birds given to Henry from the item
of 2_l._ 18_s._ 10_d._ for the expences of them for one month
only. "The best falconers were Flemings, and even those who have
attended hawks in England, until a late period, were procured from
a particular district of Flanders."--M.

Farm at Greenwich purchased for Lady Ann Rochford, 113.

This entry is more fully noticed at the commencement of the volume,
when speaking of ANNE BOLEYN, to whom it related.

Farnham, to the keeper of the place of, 151.

---- Park, to the keepers of,

Fees of the yeomen of the bows and of the Leshe, 75, 163.

Felon, paid for bringing up a, 46.

The only thing remarkable in this entry is, that such payments
should be made out of the king's privy purse, or if that was the
source of such disbursements that there should be so very few
entries of the kind in as many years.--See PRISONER and TRAITOR.

Feneux Lord, to the keeper of his house, 273.

It is almost certain from this item that Henry lodged at Lord
Feneux's house when at Canterbury. From the title of "Lord" being
applied to him, it would appear that it was the house of Sir John
Feneux, who was lord chief justice of England from 1496 to 1526.

Fenwolf Morgan, jeweller, 7, 8.

"Probably a Welshman; his name would be written Phenwolf, i. e.
Wolf's-head."--M.

Ferman George, of Waltham, 74.

Ferrers Lord, 62, 64, 86, 144, 145, 232, 240.

Walter Devereux, seventh Lord Ferrers of Chartley, K.G. He
succeeded his father in that dignity about 1497; in February 1550
he was raised to the dignity of Viscount Hereford, and died in
1558. All the entries respecting this nobleman refer to presents
of dogs, &c. sent to the king, excepting one, when his servant had
seized and brought up a traitor.

Fishing for, 68.

It has been already remarked under "Angling," that Henry seems
to have been fond of fishing, but those notices perhaps refer to
drawing nets.
