350. oldal - I rather think it was in his face. Much was the hurry and confusion; cloths and napkins were at hand to make all clean.
350. oldal - I am certain she was not joined with good works, and left the Court in a staggering condition; Charity came to the King's feet, and seemed to cover the multitude of sins her sisters had committed; in some sort she made obeisance and brought gifts, but said she would return home again, as there was no gift which...
352. oldal - I have much marvelled at these strange pageantries, and they do bring to my remembrance what passed of this sort in our queen's days ; of which I was sometime an humble presenter and assistant: but 'I ne'er did see such lack of good order, discretion, and sobriety, as I have now done.
242. oldal - If the lord deputy performs in the field what he hath promised in the council, all will be well ; but though the queen hath granted forgiveness for his late demeanor in her presence, we know not what to think hereof. She hath, in all outward semblance, placed confidence in the man who so lately sought other treatment at her hands; we do sometime think...

Our feasts were magnificent, and the two royal guests did most lovingly embrace each other at table. I think the Dane hath strangely wrought on our good English nobles ; for those, whom I could never get to taste good liquor, now follow the fashion and wallow in beastly delights. The ladies abandon their sobriety, and are seen to roll about in intoxication.
352. oldal - I will now, in good sooth, declare to you, who will not blab, that the gunpowder fright is got out of all our heads, and we are going on, hereabouts, as if the devil was contriving every man should blow up himself, by wild riot, excess, and devastation of time and temperance.
351. oldal - King, who did not accept it, but put it by with his hand; and, by a strange medley of versification, did endeavour to make suit to the King. But Victory did not triumph long, for, after much lamentable utterance, she was led away like a silly captive, and laid to sleep in the outer steps of the ante-chamber.
240. oldal - The queen is minded to take you to her favour, but she sweareth, ' that she believes you will make epigrams, and write Misacmos again on her, and all her court." She hath been heard to say, ' that merry poet, her godson, must not come to Greenwich till he hath grown sober, and leaveth the ladies
