The Postscript of your Lordship's letter I answer thus :
I trust to satisfy Morton, and for John Knox, that thing ye may se by my dyspatch to Mr. Secretary, is don and doing dayly
The people in generall well bent to England, abhorring the fact in France, and fearing their tiranny.
John Knox is now so feble as scarce can he stand alone, or speak to be hard of any audience ; yet dothe he every Sonday cause himselfe to be caried to a place, where a certayn nombre do here him, and precheth with the same vehemence and zeale that ever he did.
He dothe reverence your Lordship myche, and willed me once agayn to send you worde, that he thanked
God he had obtained at his hands, that the gospel of Jesus Christ is truely and simply preached thorowout Scotland, which dothe so comfort him, as he now desireth to be out of this myserable lyffe.
He said further, that it was not long of your Lordship that he was not a great bischope in England
; but that i effect growen in Scotland, he being an instrument, dothe myche \! more satisfy him.
He desired me to make his last commendations most humbly to your Lordship, and withall, that he prayed God to increase his strong spirit in you, saying, there was never more nead.
And quoth he to me, " Take heed how you believe them of the Castle, for sure theye will deceave you
; and trust me, I know they seake nothing more than the ruyne of your Mistress, which they have been about of long tyme."

CIX.—EiCHARD Bannatyne's Account of Knox's last Illness and Death.
Sonday the nynt of November 1572, was Mr. James Lowsone inangurat in the pulpet of Edinburgh be Johne Knox, eftir that he had come fra the Tolbuith, whair he preached
: And at that tyme declaired to the whole assemblie (as his waike voice wuld serve, quhilk was heard but of a few) the dewtie of ane minister, and also thair dewtie to him lykwayis ; and so made the mariage, in a maner, betwixt Mr. James Lowsone, then made minister, and the folke ; and so praysed God, that had gevin thame one in the place of himself that w^as now unable to teiche, and desyred God to augment him a thowsand fold above that that he had, gif it wer his pleisoure ; and so with the commone blessing endit.
The Tuysday eftir this, the said Mr. Knox was stricken with a grit hoist, whairwith he being so febled, caused him upoun the 1 3 day leve his ordinar reading of the Byble
; for ilk day he red a certane chepteris, both the Auld Testament and of the New, with certane psalmes, quhilk psalmes he passed through everie moneth once.
Also the same threttein day he desyred his Wyfe to pay liis servandis lies, saying, he wald never give thame another fie ; quhilk on the morne he said to his servand, Jamie Campbell, in geving him his fie, " Thou will never get no moir of me in this lyfe !"
And sua gave him xxs. above his said waiges.
Upoun the Thurisday, efter Mr. Knox tuike his seiknes, which pat end to his long travelis, quhilk he maist earnestlie cravet of God.

Letter from WiLLiAME Maitlajs'D, tiecretary to the Session of Edinburgh.
It is cum to our eires be credible report, that your minister, Johne Knoxe, alsweill publict in his sermondis as utberwayis, hes slanderit me as ane atheist, and enemie to all religione, in direct speiches, that I have plainlie spocken in the Castell, that " thair is nather heavin nor hell," and that " thai ar thingis devysed to fray bairnes ;" with uther sic language tending to the lyke effect, unworthie of Christiane earis to be rehersit in the hearing of men.
Which wordis, befoir God, never at ony tyme proceidit from my mouth, nor yit ony uther sounding to the lyke purpose, nor whairof ony sic sentence mycht be gathered ; for (praised be God !) I have bene brocht up from my youth and instructed in the feir of God, and to know that he has appointed heavin for the habitatioune of his elect, and also hell for the everlasting dwelling of the reprobat.
Seing he hes thus ungentlie used me, and neglected his dewtie, vocatioun, the rewle of Christiane cheritie, and all guid ordour, maliciouslie and untrewlie lieth on me, I crave redres thairof at your handis, and that ye will tak sic order thairwith, that he may be compellit to nominat his authoris, and prove his alledgance, to the end that gif it be found trew (as I am Weill assuired he sail not be able to verifie it in ony sort), I may worthilie be repute the man he paintis me out to be
; and gif (whairof I have no doubt) the contrare fall out, ye may use him accordinglie ; at leist that heireftir ye ressave not every word proceading from his mouth as oracles
; and knaw that he is bot a man subject to vanitie ; and that mony tymes dois utter his owin passiones, and uther menis inordinat affectiones, in place of trew doctrine.
It is convenient that, according to the Scriptouris, ye beleive not every spirit, but try the spreitis, whither thai ar of God or not W. Maitland.

LETTERS, ETC.
Unto this letter the Sessione and Kirke of Edinburgh made this ansuer, on Thurisday the 20 of November, be him that brocht the letter, as followes :
Ansuer he the Sessione and Kirke of Edinlmrgh.
Anent the complante gevin in this day 8 dayis befoire the Sessione of this burcht of Edinburgh, be Johne Eobertsone, in name of Williame Maitland, and subscryvit with his hand, as he affirmes ; and anent the ansuer desyrit be the said Johne thairupoun, it being deferred to this day, and the Sessione of the Kirke thairwith ryplie advisit ; for ansuer, findis it guid that the compliner authorise the presenter of the supplicatioune with sufficient mandat, and that he dedeigne him self
(gif he seikis ony ben elite of the said Kirke of the burcht foirsaid) to direct his supplicatioune to the ministeris, elderis, and deacones now present, admittand thame as judges in that cans, as use is.
Tuo or thrie dayis efter the ingeving of the said lettre, it was red to Mr. Knox, wha be ressone of his infirmitie and seiknes could nocht ansuer the same, whilk glaidlie he wald have done, gif God had gevin him habilitie and longer dayis.
The Fryday, which was the 14 day, he rose above his accustomed dyet ; and yit when he did ryse, he could scairse sit in a stuile : And then being demandit, what he wald doe up ? said, he wald goe to the kirke and preich, for he thocht it had bene Sonday ; and said that he had bene all nicht meditating upoun the resurrectione of Christ, which he sould have preichit after"' the death of Christ, whilk he had finishit in his last sermonde the Sonday befoir; for oft and monie tymes he wishit and desyred of God that he mycht end his dayis in the teiching and meditatioune of that doctrine, quhilk he did.
The Setterday, Johne Durie and Archbald Stewart come in about 12 houris, not knowing how seike he was; and for thair cause come to the table, which was the last tyme that ever he sat at ony therefter ; for he caused peirce ane hoggeid of wine
LETTERS, ETC.
which was in the seller, and willed the said Archbald send far the same so long as it lasted, for he wald never tarie untill it wer drunkin, Sonday, the 1 6 day, he keipit his bed, and wald take no meit
(thinking it had beine the first Sonday of the Fast), quhilk the Laird of Braid ^ schew him the contraire
; wha sat in the chalmer and dyned befoir his bedsyde, and caused him take a litill.
Befoir, he earnestlie desyred the kirke (1 meane the elderis aQddeacones) that he mycht bid thaim his last guidnycht, as he had done befoir in the pulpet, at the inauguratioune of Mr. James Lowsone, saying.
That he wald never enter that place againe.
Upoun Mononday the 1 7 day, the kirke come, according to his desyre^ unto whome he protestit that he had taught nothing
' but trew and sound doctrine, beating doun, be the threatnings of Godis judgments, the proud and stubborne, and raising up
I and comforting the trubled consciences be the promises of Godis I mercies ; and that howsoever that he had bene against ony man, it was never for hatreat of the persone, but only to beat doun in thame thair vice, and that quhilk was in them that rebelled against God, quhilk he wald nocht leive unpunishit, and for discharge of his conscience afoir God ; and that he made not merchandise of the word, whose message he bure, to whom he most make accompt for the same.
In respect quhairof (albeit he was waike and ane unworthie creature, and a fearfuU man), he feared not the faces of men ; and thairfoir exhorted thaim to stand constant into that doctrine quhilk they had hard of his mouth (how unworthie that ever he was), and willit thaim never to joyne with wickitness, and speciallie with the Castle of Edinburgh, it remaining in the steat that it is, quhom God wald destroye both in bodie and saule, and thei repent not And albeit thei sould not triumph in this world, and truble as they had done, yit prayed he thame never to have doingis with ^ Kobert Fairlie of Braid.
LETTERS, ETC.
that factione, but rather chuse, with David, to flie to the montaines, then to remaine in the cumpany of the wicked.
And that severitie that he used against the Laird of Grange, with quhom he hes bene sa familiar, was only to bring him to acknowledge him self, and his schamefuU declyning, that thairby he mycht turne to repentence, whairof he doubted : And for this purpose he willed Mr. David Lindsay, being then present, and Mr. James Lowsone, to signifie to the Laird that Johne Knox remanis the same man, now going to die, that ever he hes hard him befoir, quhen he was able of body ; and that thei sould will him to considder what anes he was, and the estait whaiiin now he standis, quhilk is pairt of his truble ; and that gif he repentit not, the threatiningis be him pronounced sould fall upoun him and that house !
As for ansuer to the Secretaris^ bill, he desyred all men to considder thair workis, and specialie the rewingis of Edinburgh attoure the trubling of this quyet commoun wealth, and the Kirke of God within the same ; quhilkis wer a sufficient declaratioune, to him and the whole world, that he denyed thair wer ony God to punishe sic wickitness, or yet ony heavin or hell whairin vertew sould be rewardit or vice punished
: The workaris thairof God wald destroy and punishe, as mycht be sene in the
Psalme, which gif thei did beleive, they wald never have committed sic ungodly and unnatural wickitnes.
And for ansuer to that he said, he was " brocht up and instructed in the feir of God," etc., it was not the educatioune that made a trew
Christiane, nather yit that brocht the feir and knowledge of God to ony man, but only the illuminatioune of the hart be the Spreit of God : for who was better brocht up than Julianus the apostate, and sundrie utheris ?
As to the nominatioune of the reportaris, quhilk the bill requyred, he refusit, althocht he could Weill aneughe have done it.
Wliair the bill said that " Johne Knox was a man subject to vanitie, and all is not oracles

; ;
LETTERS, ETC.
that comes out of his mouth :" Whairto the said Mr. Knox ansueris, That he confessit he was but a most vile creature and a wretched man; nochttheles the thingis that he hes spoken sould be fund als trew as these oracles that have bene spocken be ony of the servandis of God befoir ; for he had said nothing
but that whairof he was assuired to be the word of God (to wit), that the justice of God sould never be satisfiet against the schedderis of innocent blonde, untill the blond of the schedder be sched againe, be order of justice, to satisfie the same; or els, that God utherwayis move his heart unto unfained repentance and that God walde destroye the wickit and cast them into hell, as may be sene in the 9th Psalme, quhilk he caused thaim reid for he hes bene the chiefe author of all the trubill done both in England and Scotland.
And so, with exhortatioune unto thaim all, he commendeth thaim to God ; who afterjthe prayer red for the aejke (as it isin the Psalme buke), thai depairtit with tearis.
Eftir this speiking he was the wors, and tuike a gritter and mair vehement working, for he never spake almost but with grit paine ; and yit verie few come in (that he saw) to whome he gave not sum admonitione or exhortatioun.
Befoir his seiknes, he gave command to his wyfe and his servant Kichard, that when God sould send him seikness, [and] that he was not able to reid him self, that then one of thaim sould reid unto him ilk day the 1 7 chapter of Sanct Johnes \^ Gospel, a chapter of the Epistle to the Ephesianis, and the 53 of Esaii ; whilk was done :—so that few houris, or none, of the day did pas over, whairin sumwhat was not red, besydis, according as he wald appoint, and oftymes sum sermondis of Calvine in Erenche, and of the Psalmes ; and sundrie tymes when as we wald be reiding of the foirsaidis sermondis (which wer upoun the Ephesianis), thinking him to be asleip, we wald aske gif that he hard ?
Whairto he wald ansuer, " I heir, I prais God, and understandis far better !"
Whilk wordis he spake the last tyme, about foure houris befoir his last braith.
LETTERS, ETC.
The Lord Boyd come in unto him and said, " I know, Sir, that I have offendit you in monie thingis, and am now cum to crave you pardon."
But what farder was betwixt thame I know not, for thei wer allone.
The Lord of Morton, Boyde, and the Laird of Drumlanrige, come in the Weddinsday, the

Wliat purpose was amongis thame, none but thaim selves knew.
The nixt day, the Lord Lindsay, Bischope of Caitnes, and sundrie utheris gentlmen, come in, whome he exhorted to continow in the treuth that thei had hard, for uther word of saluatione thair is none
And earnestlie besought thaim (as he did to everie one that he spake unto) to " have nothing to doe with that dampnable hous of the Castell of Edinburgh !
I meane nocht (sayis he) be the stanes, etc., but be thois that ar within that hous ; whom God sail confound, baith in this lyfe and eternallie in body and soule, gif thai repent not, whilk appeiris nocht, and make thair names to remaine in execratioune to the !" posteritie to cum My Lordis Euthwen, Glencairne, and diverse utheris, at sundrie tymes, did visie him ; but my Lord Euthwen (wha come but anes) said, " Gif thair be ony thing. Sir, that I am able to doe for you, I pray you charge me."
Who ansuerit, " I cair not for all the pleisoure and friendschip of the world."
A gentle woman, and ane that fearis God, desyring him to praise God for that he had bene ; and sa began, as it wer, to praise him, he said, " Tounge ! tounge ! ladie ; flesche of itself is over proud, and neidis no meanis to esteame the self !"
And thair also protested, as oftymes he did befoir and eftir, that he did " onlie cleame to the frie mercie of God, schawed unto mankynd in the blude of his deare Sone, Jesus Christ, quhom only I embraced for his perfectione, justice, rychteousness," etc.
: And willed her never to puff up flesche, which of it self was to prone and reddie to do the same, without ony uther provocatioune ; and so exhorted hir unto humilitie, and to " cast

And so, with exhortatioune in the feare of God, and into that doctrine which thai have hard of him, he baid theim fair weill
At this tyme also, thir being depairtit, he sayis to the Laird of Braid, " Ilk ane biddis me guidnycht, but when will ye do it ?
I have bene greatly behaldin and addebted unto you, quhilk I am never able to recompence you : Bot I committ you to one who is able to doe it, that is, to the Eternal God !"
Upoun Fryday, the xxi day, he commandit Eichard to gar make his kist,^ whairin he was borne to his buriall.
Sonday, the 23 day (which was the first Sonday of the Fast), at efternoune, all being at the kirke except thame that waited upoun him, eftir that he had lyne a guid space verie quyet, as we thocht, he sayis, " Gif ony be present, lat tliem come and sie the worke of God !" for then he thocht to have departit, as we judged.
At what tyme I send for Johne Johnstouu, he burstis furth in thir wordis, " I have been in meditatioune thir tuo last nightis of the trubled Kirke of God, the spouse of Jesus Christ, despised of the waiid, but precious in his sight
I have callit to God for it, and have committit it to hir Head, Jesus Christ!

And thaireftir said the Lordis Prayer, "^ i and the Beleife, with some paraphraise, upoun everie petitione and article of thaim ; and in saying, " Our Father which art in heaven," he sayis, "Who can pronounce so holie wordis

Thairfoir he said, oft and sundrie tymes, " Live in Christ, and let never fleshe feare death !"
His meaning was, that gif we live in Christ, no man sail feare death.
When he wald be lying, as we snpposed, on a sleip, then was he at his meditatioune, as his manifold sentences may weill declair ; as this that I have befoir said, whairin he wald oftin burst fiirth, "Live in Christ!" and, "Lord grant us the rycht and perfyte hatred of syn, alsweill be the document of thy mercies as of thy judgmentis !"
" Lord grant trew pastoris to thy Kirke, that puritie of doctrine may be reteaned ; and restore pace againe to this commonewealth, with godly rewlaris and and magistratis !" etc.
" Anes, Lord, make ane end of truble !"
" Lord I commend my spreit, sauU and body, • and all, into thy handis !"
With innumerable sic lyke sentences.
Mononday, which was the 24 of November, he departed this lyfe to his eternal rest !
He rose about 9 or ten houris, and vi^ald nocht lye (and yit he was not able to stand alone), and pat on his hoise and doublat, and sat in ane chair the space of half ane houre ; and thaireftir went to bed, whair he wi'ocht in drawing of his end.
And being askit of the gudman of KjTigincleuch, " Gif he had ony paine ?" said, " It is no painefull !" paine, but sic a paine as, I trust, sail put end to this battell He sayis also to the said Eobert, " I man leive the care of my wife and bairnes unto you, to whome ye man be a husband, in my rowme."''
A litill efter none, he caused his wyfe reid the 15 chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthianis, off the resurrectione ; to * Robert Campbell of Kiuzeancleucb, sou's " Memorial of two wortbie Chrisin Ayrshire, a zealous friend of Knox, tians," etc., first printed in 1595, and did not long survive to fulfil this charge. included in the "Poetical Remains of He died 22d of April 1574, and bis wife Mr. John Davidson, Regent in St. Leonin the month of June following.— See ard's College," etc.

LETTERS, ETC.
whome he said, " Is not tliat a comfortable chapter?"
A litill eftir he sayes, " Now, for the last, I commend my saule, spreit, and bodie (pointing upoun his tlirie fingeris), unto thy handis, Lord !"
Thaireftir, about fyve houris, he sayis to his Wyfe, " Goe reid whair I cast my first ancre !"^ And so shee read the 17of Johnes Evangle_;__quhilk being endit, Avas red some of Calvinis sermondis upon the Ephesianis.
We, thinking that he was a sleip, demandit gif he heard ?
Answerit, " I heir, and understandis far better, I praise God!"
A nycht befoir, Doctour Prestoun, about ix houris at evin, demandit how he did ?
Said, " I have bene tempted be Sathan, and when he saw that he could not prevaile, he tempted me to have trusted in my self, or to have rejosed or boasted of my self; but I repulsed him -with this sentence. Quid hcibes, qiiod non accepisfi ?"
Eftir all, about sevin houris at evin, we left reiding, thinking he had been a sleip, so he lay still quhill after ten houris, ex- | cept that sunitymes he wald bid weit his mouth with a litill ' waike aill : And half ane houre eftir ten, or thairby, we went to our ordinar prayeris (whilk was the longer or we went to thame, becaus w^e thoclit he had bene sleipand) ; quhilk being endit, Doctor Prestoun sayis to him, " Sir, hard ye the prayeris?"
Answerit, "I wald to God that ye and all men hard thame as 1 have hard thaim ; and I praise God of that heavenlie sound !"
Eftir the said doctor was rissin up, Eobert Campbell sittis downe befoir him on a stule ; and suddanlie thaireftir he sayis, " Now it is cum !" for he had gevin ane long siche and sobe.
Then Pdchard sitting downe befoir him, said, " Now, Sir, the tyme that ye have long callit to God for, to wit, ane end of your battell, is cum !
And seing all naturall power now failes, remember upon these comfortable promises, which often tymes ye have schawin to us of our Salviore Jesus Christ
And that we may understand and know that ye heir us, make us some ^ " Ancre," anchor.

signe."
And so he lifted up his one hand, and incontinent thaireftir randerit the spreit, and sleiptf'away withont ony paine, the day afoir said, about ellevin houris at cvin ; quhilk day my Lord Mortone was elected Eegent, as said is.
On this nianer departit this man of God, the lycht of Scotland, the comfort of the Kirke within the same, the mirrore of Godliness, and patrone and exemple to all trew Ministeris, in pnritie of lyfe, soundnes in doctrine, and in bauldness in reproving of wickitnes ; and one that caired not the favore of men (how great soever thei wer), to reprove thair abuses and synis !
In him was sic a mychtie spreit of judgment and wisdome, that the truble never come to the Kirke, sen his entering in publict preiching, but he foirsaw the end thairof
; so that he had ever reddie a trew counsall, and a faythfull, to teich men that wald be taught, to take the best pairt and leife the worst so that he that followed his counsall, in the end, had ever occasioune never to repent him
: And contrarie, sic as have rejected the same, have cassin thaim selves in most schamefuU wickitnes, and have come in a part, and daylie mair and mair are lyke to cum and fall to a most miserable ruyne, both of soule and body, quhilk undoubtedly sail come upoun thame, gif repentence prevene not Godis judgmentis
; as may be weill A'erefiet this day in the Hammiltonis, the Laird of Grange, and Williame
Maitland ; whois end behald when it comis !
Bot heir sum may object, as mony have said, that my Lord of INIurray, of guid memorie, had not deid sic a death gif he had not followed his counsall !
Whairto it is ansuerit. That guid counsall is not the worse, albeit wickit men persecute thanic that follow it ; for so have all the godly bene persecuted from the begyning, for following the treuth and the guid counsall of God and his servantis.
And as to the said Regentis slauchter, •gif his counsall had bene followed when the Maister of Grahame
LETTERS, ETC.
come and drew him to Dumbartaiie, he phxinlie said to the liegent then, that it was only done for a trane, be that meanes to cutt him off, as it come to pas.
Also, when he was in Stirling, being returned from Dumbartane, he sent me^ to my Ladie the Eegentis wife, tuo sundrie tymes, and desyred her to signifie my Lord her husband, that he sould nocht come be
Linlithgow.
So that gif his counsall had bene followed, he had not died at that tynie.
And my Ladie, the last tyme, sent Mr. Johue Woode, to desyre him to avoyde Lyulithgow.
Eot God thoclit us unworthie of sic a rewlar above us, and also he wald thairby have the wickitnes of utheris knawin, whilk then was hid ; and thairfoir did God then tak him ^ra us
But let the Hammiltounes, the Laird of Grange, with the rest of that factione, lay thair compt, and recken thair advantage and wining since !
What dexteritie in teiching, bauldnes in reproving, and hatred of wickitnes was in him, my ignorant dulness is not able to declair ; whilk gif I sould preis to set out, were as who wald licht a candle to lat men sie the Sonne, seing all his vertewis ar better knowin, and nocht hid to the world, a thowsand fold better than I am able to expres.
LTpoun the Weddinsday efter, he was buried, being convoyed with the Eegent and the Lordis that were in the toun for the tyme, with monie a sorrowfuU hairt ex.
The Account of Knox's last Illness and Death,
PUBLISHED BY Me. ThOMAS SmETON, IN 1579.
[To the preceding account of the close of Knox's life, the similar narrative by a learned contemporary, translated from the Latin, may be added.
This translation appeared in " The Christian Magazine, or Evangelical Eepository," vol. vi. p. 353- ^ The transcriber of the MS. inserts the words— " meaning, Mr. Knox sent Richard his servant."
[ 64G ] 362.
Ediiib., September, 1802, 8vo.^ I have reason to believe it was contributed to that periodical by the subsequently distinguished biographer of Knox.
Me. Thomas Smeton was born at Gask, near Perth, in the year 1536.
After completing his academical studies in St.
Salvator's College, St. Andrews (his name occurring as Incorporated in 1553, and a Determinant in 1556), he was appointed one of the Eegents in that College.
Still adhering to the Roman Catholic faith at the period of the Reformation, he went abroad, and we find him at Paris and Rome, where he attached himself to the Society of Jesuits.
But at length, having abjured the Popish doctrines, he narrowly escaped the massacre at Paris in 1572; and being permitted to return in the company of Secretary
Walsingham to England, he obtained employment as a schoolmaster at Colchester.
Alexander Hay, Clerk of Privy Council, in a letter to Sir Francis Walsingham, dated from Edinburgh,
19th October 1576, says, " For Mr. Thomas Smetoun, it wes your Honour's letters that maid him and me to be first acquainted.
And, according to your opinioun of him, 1 tak him to be a verie honest man, and well learned, and wes sorey at his heir being that he found so slender intertainment and welcuming.

Both of his volumes are dedicated to Mary Queen of Scots.
In 1580, when Melville M'as translated to St.
Andrews, Smeton became his successor as Principal of the University of Glasgow.
He was skilled in the learned languages, and greatly esteemed.
His premature death occurred on the 13th of December 1583, in the fortyseventh year of his age, " after eight days sickness (says Calderwood) in a hot fever, to the great sorrow of all good men."-^ The actual writer of the following narrative is not named.
Calderwood quotes it as Smeton's, but at the time of Knox's death he had not returned to this country ; and I have little hesitation in ascribing it to ]\Ir. James Lawson, Knox's successor as minister of Edinburgh.^ But Smeton in his own work, in refuting Hamilton's slanders, says, " This illustrious servant of God, John Knox, I shall clear from your feigned accusations and slanders, by the testimony of a venerable Assembly rather than by my own denial.
' Tliis pious duty, this reward of a well-spent life, all its members most cheerfully discharge to their excellent instructor in Christ Jesus.
This testimony of gratitude they all owe to him, who, they know, ceased not to deserve well of all till he ceased to breathe.
Eeleased from a body exhausted in Christian warfare, and translated to a blessed rest, where he has obtained the sweet reward of his labours, he now triumphs with Christ.'
But beware, sycophant, of insulting him when dead ; for he has left behind him as many defenders of his reputation as there are persons who were drawn by his faithful preaching from the gulf of ignorance to the knowledge of the gospel."]

A True Account of the concluding part of the Life and Death of that illustrious Man, JOHN" KNOX, the MOST faithful RESTORER OF THE ChURCH OF
SCOTLAND,
DRAWN UP BY A PIOUS AND LEARNED MAN, WHO SAT BY HIM
DURING HIS SICKNESS UNTIL HIS LATEST BREATH.
When Almighty God hath in mere mercy raised up men eminent for piety and genius, as so many lights to the world, it is an old artifice and malicious scheme of Satan to endeavour to spread false reports against them, to load them with feigned crimes, and cruelly and undeservedly to tear their characters while they are alive, and their memories after they are dead.
Nor has he wanted instruments who have voluntarily rushed upon the wicked attempt.
This has been verified Ijy the experience of all ages, but more especially of late, as to the life and death of John Knox, concerning whom I may truly and ingenuously say, that I know not if God ever lodged greater piety,
/| or a more noble genius, in a trail ana weaJc body.
Certain 1 y I am, that it will be difficult to find one in whom more of the gifts of the Holy Spirit shone, to the solid comfort and joy of the Church of Scotland.
No one spared himseK less in undergoing fatigues of body and mind ; no one was more intent on discharging the duties of the province assigned to him.
Yet, during his life, no one was more persecuted with the hatred of wicked men, or wounded with the calumnies of evilspeakers,
] although (such was his magnanimity) this only served to make him more bold in his opposition to their ways.
Nor did it satisfy these instruments of the devil to persecute him when alive, but they must also treat him with indignity after he is dead.
This certain scurrilous declaimers have frequently done ; and of late Archibald Hamilton, a wretched apostate, if indeed we can call him an apostate, who has never yet forsaken his atheism.
How odiously, how falsely, and with what lawless effrontery, this person hath written concerning the death of so great and pious a man, in his foolish book, entitled, " Concerning the Confusion of the Calvinian Sect," is well known to those faithful persons who were present when that man of God, of blessed memory, commended his spirit into the hands of the Lord.
I therefore have thought that it would not be an unprofitable task to write down, in as few words as possible, the true history of the concluding scene of his life and of his death, until a more copious narration of his life and actions shall be composed ; that thus, in the meantime, the falsehood, hatred, and virulence of this miserable apostate may be made evident to all, and the deserved honour of this eminent servant of God may remain.
The man of God began to feel his weak body gradually broken by the numerous labours which he patiently and constantly underwent for promoting the glory of God, and propagating the gospel of Jesus Christ
; but his incredible perspicacity of mind and wisdom, instead of being diminished or languishing, to the astonishment of all, every day increased.
In addition to his labours, many other things so grievously afflicted the godly man, that he pined away with thoughtfulness, tears, and sighs.
For, in the year of our Lord 1569[-70], on the 23d day of January, James Stewart, the good Kegent, the ornament and light of our nation, inferior to none in the observance of religion and the love of justice, was, on account of our numerous and great sins, assassinated by the treachery of that wretch.
] James Hamilton, wlio thus brought on the ruin of himself and almost the whole nation.
This illustrious man being particularly dear to Knox, on account of his great piety and integrity of life, it is impossible to describe what grief he felt at his death. He foresaw what difficulties, commotions, and mischiefs would follow upon it to the dejected and much-afflicted commonwealth.
These things rushing frequently into his mind, vehemently affected, disturbed, tormented him.
Add to this, that at that time, besides the prevalence of irreligion, which he had always courageously set himself against, many who had at first deserved well of religion, appeared to be gradually making defection from it, to corrupt the royal authority and patronize the crimes of wicked men, and thus bring the commonwealth, and even religion itself, into the greatest danger than which, wdiat could be more painful to a pious breast ? By the wicked perfidy of these persons, the good man, with many others eminent for piety, was obliged, much against his inclination, to leave Edinburgh, being in a manner driven from it by the authority of the Ecclesiastical Senate.
All these things added new griefs and sufferings to those which he formerly endured.
In the mean time he went to St. Andrews, where, at the beginning, he had founded a church, to the ministry of which Goodman, a man of singular piety and learning, had succeeded.
But instantly Satan raised against him many enemies there, especially when he had opposed himself to those wretches who had conspired against the King's majesty.
Among these the chief was the apostate Hamilton, who at that time made the highest pretences to religion and piety, but now has gone into all the filthy puddle of Popery.
While he was engaged in this contest with the world, and the agents of the devil, on the 24th day of August, in the year of our Lord 1572, happened the horrid and hitherto unparallelled massacre of the Protestants in France.
At this time, indeed, the Pope (that man of perdition, whom the Lord will destroy by the spirit of
] his iiioutl), and utterly abulish by his ilhistvioiis coming), with his base shavelings,^ had formed the plan of butchering in one day all the professors of the Christian and Eeformed religion.
The perpetration of this wicked deed in France he committed to his eldest son, the French king (whom, having already finished his infamous life, the Lord hath dragged before his tribunal and judged), who himself acting the part of a bloody butcher, under the perfidious mask of friendship and religion, made the streets of almost every city of that cruel nation to run with the blood of the righteous.
'No reverence was shown to the hoary head, no regard to the most learned men.
Aged matrons, virgins, girls, and even infants just taken from the womb, and women, immediately upon having finished an unhappy labour, were partly trampled to death in the streets by the armed rufiians, and partly drowned in the Seine
; a few being thrown into prison, were immediately after horribly murdered. heavens ! do ye not weep ? earth ! dost thou not tremble ?
But blessed be God, who made this blood of martyrs the seed of the gospel.
This massacre, added to the former anxieties, and the painful recollection of them, sunk deeply into the breast of every good man, and in an especial manner grieved and agitated Knox.
About this time, as the fury of the Civil War had subsided and given way to the introduction of peace in Scotland, and those who had been banished from Edinburgh were returning, Knox received letters from the Council, inviting him to return to the city.
Upon this he left St. Andrews with the grief and tears of the godly, but to the great joy of the wicked, to whom he had been a continual terror while he had remained there in that turbulent time ; and being accompanied by many pious brethren, he returned to Edinburgh, where he was earnestly expected and joyfully received by his congregation.
Without '
Romish priests were so called by Protestants on account of their shaven heads.
] delay he immediately began the discharge of his ministerial office, and preached to the people in the church two sermons full of comfort ; but his voice, now become more feeble, was not sufficient to reach so numerous an auditory.
As soon as he perceived this, he earnestly requested of the Ecclesiastical Senate that they would assign to him another place of worship more commodious and suited to his strength. A less place was therefore assigned to him, whicli did not admit such a crowd, where he deliyerecL. to the...people some homilies upon the passion of Jesus Christ our Lord.
He began with the 26th chapter of ]\Iatthew.
Often did he express an ardent desire to finish his life in this doctrine.
That godly man, and excellent preacher of the word, Craig,^ being at this time employed elsewhere, and Knox alone being insufficient for such a congregation, especially in the present debilitated state of his body, permission was given to the people of Edinburgh by the General Assembly, which was held at Perth, to chuse any minister of the Word whom they thought most fit, wherever they could find him, and it was ordered that he whom Knox, the Superintendent of Lothian, and the Church of Edinburgh, should judge most fit, should be called to this station.
It was unanimously agreed that James Lawson should be called fro)n the College of Aberdeen to join his labours for the edification of that church, who, upon letters from the Superintendent and tlie Magistrates of the city, came from the north to Edinburgh, that he might at least see his friend Knox.
Along with these Knox sent a letter, breathing the truest piety, and anticipating his happy departure, to which these w^ere subjoined in a postscript, " Make haste, my Brother, otherwise you will come too late ;" signifying, that unless he hastened his journey he would find Mm dead, whom he wished so much to see alive.^
When James Lawson arrived at Edinburgh, he preached * Mr. John Craig, formerly Knox's colleague.
See swpra, p. 622, note 3.
^ See this Letter, sup7'a, p. 632.
] different times to the people publicly assembled.
On the 9th of November 1572, he was chosen and admitted by the ministry of Knox, the authority of the Ecclesiastical Senate, and the public suffrages of the Church
; on which occasion, with many and solemn words, he testified from the pulpit his fidelity in preaching the eternal word of God, he magnified the mercy of God in substituting Lawson in his place, and fervently prayed for an increase of the grace of God, and of the Holy Spirit unto him which prayers Almighty God hath not suffered to be in vain.
Having finished these things, after he had pronounced the blessing upon the people, with a mind more cheerful than usual, but with a weak body, and leaning upon his staff, he departed, accompanied by ahnost the whole assembly to his house, from which he did not again come forth in life.
On the 10th he was seized with a violent cough, so that, through the obstruction caused by a continual defluxion, he began to breathe with great difficulty.
Upon seeing this, many who ardently desired to enjoy his agreeable company (if it should please the Lord to spare him longer), advised to call for the assistance of physicians, particularly of Dr. Preston.
He readily comj)lied, saying, that he was unwilling either to despise or neglect ordinary means, although he knew that the Lord would soon put an end to his warfare.
The next day he caused the wages of all his servants to be paid, and exhorted them, in a very solemn manner, to walk in the fear of the Lord, and to lead a life becoming
Christians educated in such a family.
The same day the increase of his disease forced him to leave off his ordinary practice of reading ; for it was his practice to read himself, every day, some chapters both of the Old and New Testaments, but especially the Psalms, and the gospel history.
In the mean time he gave directions to his wife, Margaret Stewart, a pious woman, who was extremely attentive to him, and Eichard Ballentine,^ a servant who was dear to ^ The name Banuatyne, Bellenden, and Ballantync, was used indiscriminately.
] him on account of his religion and piety, to read to him every day, with a distinct voice, the 17th chapter of John, one or other of the chapters of the Epistle to the Ephesians, and the 53d chapter of Isaiah, which they punctually and diligently attended unto.
Moreover, he himself did choose from time to time such Psalms as he wished, in meditating upon which he received great refreshment, both in his life and at his death.
On the 1 4th he rose from bed at seven o'clock, and being asked why he did not lie still, when he was so sick, he answered, that he had been employed all that night in meditating upon the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord, and was now ready to ascend the pulpit, to communicate that consolation to others which he had enjoyed in his own mind, while yet he could scarcely be supported by the assistance of two men upon whom he leaned.
Thus he ardently desired to be found in the work of the Lord even to his last breath.
Some days having elapsed, upon the 22d of that month he sent for the ministers, elders, and deacons of the Church, that he might converse with them about spiritual and heavenly things ; that being assembled together he might bid them fareweU, and pray for their felicity in the Lord.
When they met he received them in the following words :
" The day approaches," said he, " is now before the door, for which I have frequently and fervently thirsted, when having finished my great labours, and almost infinite sorrows, I shall depart and be with Christ.
And now my God is my witness, whom I have served in the Spirit in the gospel of his
Son, that I have taught nothing but the true and solid doctrine of the gospel of the Son of God, and have had it for my only object, to instruct those that were ignorant of divine things, to confirm the faithful, to raise up and strengthen by the promises of grace the minds of those who were weak, timid, and agitated by a sense of their sins, and to fight against the proud and such as rebelled against God, by the awful threats of Divine judgements.
I know that many have complained I
] miicli and loudly, and do still complain, of my too great severity ; but God knows that my mind was always free from hatred to the persons of those against whom I denounced the heavy judgements of God.
In the mean time, I cannot deny but that I felt the greatest abhorrence at the sins in which they indulged ; still, however, keeping this as the one thing in view, that if it were possible I might gain them to the Lord.
But a certain reverential fear of my God, who called me, and was pleased of his grace to make me a steward of divine mysteries, to whom I knew I must render an account, when I shall appear before his tribunal, of the manner in which I have discharged the embassy which he hath committed unto me,—had such a powerful effect as to make me utter so intrepidly whatever the Lord put into my mouth, without any respect of persons.
Therefore I profess before God and his holy angels, that Luever made gain of the sacred ^^•ord of God, that I never studied to please men, never indulged my own private passions or those of others, but faithfully distributed the talent intrusted to my care for the edification of the Church over which I did watch.
Whatever obloquy wicked men may throw upon me respecting this matter, I rejoice in the testimony of a good conscience.
In the mean time do you, my dear brethren, persevere in the eternal truth of the gospel of the Son of God, give diligent attention to the flock over which the Lord hath set you, and which he hath redeemed by the blood of his onlybegotten Son.
And thou, Lawson, fight the good fight, and perform the work of the Lord joyfully and resolutely.
The Lord from on high bless you, and the whole Church of Edinburgh, against whom, as long as they persevere in the word of truth, which they have heard of me (God having been pleased to make me a Minister of it), the gates of hell shall not prevail.
Beware of those, of whom you know there ai-e many here, who not only deny the King's authority, but also have made defection from tlie truth whicli they once acknowledged
] and professed, against whom I denounce, that unless they are brought to repentance, and return to that way from which they have wandered, they shall be miserable both in soul and body.
But as I breathe with difficulty, I must here have done." Upon this, we who were present, being covered both with tears and with joy, when we thought of the warfare which he had so courageously borne, and the joy to which he was hastenuig, with common consent poured out prayers to the Lord ; which being finished, James Lawson and David Lindsay conversed with him alone, the rest having gone away.
" Among other things, there is one," said he, " which yet grievously afflicts me.
You have formerly been witnesses of the courage and constancy of Grange in the cause of the Lord, but now, alas
! into what a gulph has he precipitated himself ?
I entreat you not to refuse the request which I now make to you :
Go, and tell him in my name, that unless he is yet brought to repentance he shall die miserably; for neither the craggy rock in which he miserably trusts, nor the carnal prudence of that man whom he looks upon as a demi-god, nor the assistance of foreigners, as he falsely flatters himself, shall deliver them ; but he shall be disgTacefully dragged from his nest to punishment, and hung on a gallows in the face of the sun, unless he speedily amend his life, and flee to the mercy of God.
The man's soul is dear to me, and l would not have it perish, if I could save it."
They promised their assistance to him in this affair ; and having gone up to the Castle of Edinburgh, they discoursed with Grange, but were not able to move him from his purpose by any arguments which obstinacy the Lord afterwards severely punished (as Knox had more than once foretold), when he was publicly brought to the gallows.
In the meantime, some days passed ; many of the chief Nobility in the land visited him, among whom were the Earl of Morton (who a short time after was declared Eegent), Boyd also, and others.
There likewise came to him several pious '

J women, who were of high descent and education ; many godly men also flocked in crowds to his door ; all of whom he solidly exhorted to piety ; nor did he suffer any one to depart without consolations which he suggested to them under the extraordinary impulse of the Spirit.
On the 20th November he ordered the wooden chest to be made in which his body was to be deposited.
Through the whole period of his distress these words were frequently in his mouth, " Come, Lord Jesus, sweet Jesus, into tliy hands. I ,commend_my spirit : look propitiously, Lord, upon thy Church which thou hast redeemed
: restore peace to this afflicted commonwealth : raise up faithful pastors who shall take care of thy Church : grant, Lord, that we may be excited by the examples of thine anger, and by a sense of thy mercy, to detest sin, and to serve thee from the heart."
In the midst of his meditations he would often break out in such addresses as this to those who stood by : "0 serve the Lord in fear, and death shall not be dreadful to you.
Nay, death shall be-blessed to those to whom the death of the only begotten k^on of God is efficHcious."
About the 23d, death approaching nearer, he breathed with greater difficulty.
When Itobert Campbell, a pious man, and very dear to Knox, anxiously inquired whether he felt great pain, he answered he did not consider nor feel that to be pain which should put an end to so many distresses, and be the beginning of eternal joy.
By and by, after he had carefully caused the places of Scripture, formerly mentioned, to be read, he himself repeated the Lord's
Prayer, the Apostles' Creed, and added certain meditations of his own concerning each of the petitions and articles of faith, to the great comfort of those who were present.
AVhen he had ended these things, lifting up his hands to heaven, " Lord," said he, " into thy hands I commend my spirit.
Thou knowest, O Lord, my pains ; I do not murmur to tliee ; nay, Lord, if it seems good to thee, I am not reluctant to bear for many years those troubles and griefs, which in thy just judgment thou hast
] laid upon me.
Do thou only continue to shine upon my mind through Jesus Christ."
All that night he was somewhat worse than usual.
In the meantime he ordered the 15th chapter of I. Corinthians to be read over and over.
When this was ended, he repeatedly said to himself, " what sweet and salutary consolation has the Lord afforded me from that chapter
The following day, about twelve o'clock, he sat up in bed, but not long, for the weakness of his body did not suffer him
; at three o'clock afternoon one of his eyes failed, nor did his tongue perform its office so expeditiously as formerly.
At six o'clock, however, he said, " Eead the passages which I selected, especially the 1 7tli chapter of John, since there I have cast anchor."
When this was done, he rested until ten o'clock, but during almost the whole of that time he uttered frequent groans, moanings, and sighs, so that those who stood by could easily understand that he was contending with a grievous temptation.
There were present John Johnston, a man eminently good and pious, Eobert Campbell, a most affectionate Christian, his pious wife, and others, who all expected evejy instant the departure of his soul from the body.
But he having at length, as it were, awakened, they asked him how he was, and what was the cause of such sighs ?
He answered, " I have indeed formerly sustained many contests in this frail life, and many assaults from Satan, but at this time that roaring lion hath most furiously attacked me, and put forth all his strength, that he might devour and make an end of me at once.
Often before hath he placed my sins before my eyes, often tempted me to despair, often has he endeavoured to entangle me with the allurements of the world ; but these weapons being broken by the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, he could accomplish nothing.
But now he has attacked me in another way ; for the cunning serpent has endeavoured to persuade me that I have merited Heaven itself and a blessed immortality by the faithful discharge of the ministerial office committed to
] me.
But blessed be God, who suggested to me those passages of Scripture by which I was able to grapple with him and extinguish this fiery dart ; amongst which were these, ' What hast thou that thou hast not received?' and, ' By the grace of God I am what I am;' and, ' Not I, but the grace of God in me ;' and thus being vanquished, he went away
; wherefore I give thanks to my God by Jesus Christ, who was pleased to grant me the victory.
And I am firmly persuaded that he shall not attack me farther, but that in a short time, without any great bodily pain, and without any distress of mind, I shall exchange this mortal and miserable life for an immortal and blessed life, through Jesus Christ."
In the meantime evening prayers were read ; being asked if he heard them, he answered, " I wish that you may have heard them with the same ears, and understood them with the same mind with which I heard and understood.
Lord Jesus, receive my spirit."
As there now appeared certain indications of immediate death, those who stood by requested him that he would give some certain sign that he closed his life in that eternal truth of God which he had taught, and in the steady assurance of a blessed immortality through Jesus Christ, which he had so often tliirsted for ; wherefore acquiring, as it were, new strength when he was just dying, he raised his hands towards heaven, and giving two sighs, his soul departed from the mortal body (at 1 1 o'clock of the night of the 24th of November) without any motion of the feet, or of any other part of his body, so_that he rather seenied to fall asleep than die.
Surely, wdiatever opprobrious things profane persons may say, in him God hath set us an example both of livuig and dying well.

Me. Patrick Hamilton, the Martyr.
Since this volume was printed, tliere has appeared an interesting work by Professor Lorimer of London, under the title of " Precursors of Knox
; or, Memoirs of Patrick Hamilton, the first Preacher and Martyr of the Scottish Reformation."
Edinburgh, 1857.
Small 8 vo.
The author has brought together all the existing facts, including many that " were perfectly new to history."
It is the less necessary, therefore, to supply any additional notes.
At the time, I could not have access to a perfect copy of the Second Edition of Foxe's Martyrs, which was printed in the year 1570, but I am now able to state that the Third Edition, in 1576, from which I quoted, is nearly a verbatim reprint of the second
; and that the extracts at pages 507-516 are precisely the same in both editions.
The various important facts relating to Hamilton which Professor Lorimer has brought to light, are partly derived from the writings of Alexander Alesius, more specially from his Exposition of the 37th Psalm, quoted by Jacobus Thomasius, in 1683, and other old writers, but overlooked, from its rarity, in our own days.
It so happened I had made a few extracts from a copy of that work in the Imperial Library,
Vienna, much about the same time that my reverend friend, Dr. Lorimer, was examining another copy in one of the German University Libraries, while engaged in collecting materials for his intended work on the Life and Writings of Alesius, Professor in the University of Leipzig, who was personally acquainted with Patrick Hamilton, and was present at St. Andrews during his trial and martyrdom in 1528.
The work referred to has this title :— " Primus Liber Psalmorum juxta Hebraeorum et divi Hieronymi Supputationem, Expositus ab Alexakdro Alesio, D. in celebri Academia Lipsensi."
Lipsia3, 1554 ; folio.
See the extracts in Professor Lorimer's " Precursors of Knox," p. 236.
It now appears tliat Hamilton had taken his degree of ]\Iaster of Arts at Paris in 1520, and that he had likewise pursued his studies at Louvain and Marpurg before he was Incorporated at St.
Andrews.
Alesius praises his learning and skill in musical composition, and states that, not long before his condenuiation, he had taken to wife a lady of high rank ; and this serves to remove the odium which I had thrown on his memory in mentioning, at page 525, his supposed illegitimate daughter.
Taking him all in all, Patrick Hamilton, titular Abbot of Feme, was one of those noble characters of whom Scotland has so much reason to be proud.

The dedication to Philip Landgi'ave of Hesse is quite the same as in the later edition of 1539, and the passage relating to Hamilton (vol. i. p. 503) has no date.
In the Bannatyne MisceUany, vol. iii. p. 345, I gave several Extracts, with a facsimile of the title-page, of John Gaw's " Richt Way to the Kingdom of Hevin," printed at Malmoe, in Sweden, in 1533, from the only copy known to exist.
Later inquiries in Denmark and Sweden were unsuccessful in obtaining any notices of the author, but in the Royal Library, Copenhagen, I had an opportunity to examine a rare volume, which shows that the chief portion of Gaw's work was translated from the Danish.
Having afterwards sent to that Library a copy of the Bannatyne Miscellany, I requested the Librarian, my old and esteemed friend the late Mr.
Boiling, to compare the Extracts with the original, and he favoured me with the following memorandum
" The title of Christian Pedersen's Book is :—Den rette veij | j Han Iseris her i de thi Gudsz bud ord, och i till Hiemmerigis Rige | ster I huilke hvsert christet meni ske finder Credo, och Pater no- | ten, Och alle de ting som hanne alt det so staar i scriff- [ er nottej Lsess bogen till ende lige och tilborlige ath vide til sin sielis sselighed | da skalt dw det saa finde |

" The above title stands in a frame, that has the arms of Denmark, viz..
Three lions at the top, and three crowns and a lion at the bottom.
The book has 124 leaves, with signatures A to Q iiij.

Our copy wants leaf, p, viij.
The Extracts in the Bannatyne Miscellany are a literal Translation of the Danish text."
The address of John Gaw to the Reader, on the use of these orisons or prayers, in which he trusted so much in " his auld blindnes," and the concluding " Epistil to the Nobil Lordis and Barons of Scotland," do not of course form any part of Pedersen's original work.
The author. Christian Pedersen, who was born at Svendborg about the year 1480, was a canon at Lund, and having studied at Paris, he took his Master's Degree in 1511.
After renouncing the Papistical religion, he endeavoured to suppress his earlier writings in defence of that doctrine, deploring his having published in them miracles and fables which he describes as merely the inventions and dreams of men.
ADDITIONAL NOTES AND CORRECTIONS.
he published a revised translation of the New Testament in Danish.
It was printed at Antwerp, as the art of printing was not introduced at Malmoe till the year when Gaw's volume was j^rinted.^
Pedersen's own work is printed in the same peculiar type as Gaw's, and has this imprint :

Mr. George Wishart, the Martyr.
In the Appendix, p. 534, I expressed some doubt respecting George Wishart having been nearly connected with the family of Pittarrow, as it seemed strange that no allusion to this should be found in the contemporary notices of Sir John Wishart, the Comptroller, who is alleged to have been his Brother : in all probability he was his Nephew.
I observe, however, distinct assertion of the fact by Dr. John Gordon (who became Dean of Salisbury), in his rare tract entitled, " Assertiones
Theologicse pro Vera Verse Ecclesise nota qua3 est solius Dei Adoratio,"
&G., Rupellaj, 1603, 8vo, which is dedicated " Nobili et generoso juveni Joanni Sophocardio Pittarroensi," and concludes with the following paragraph :
" Accipe ergo, mi Sophocardi, has Assertiones quibus conficiendis ausam prsebuisti, ut non tibi solum, sed et Christianis omnibus qui servari expetunt prosint :

I shall add, therefore, what appears to be the pedigree of the Wisharts of Pittarrow during the sixteenth century

Regarding the writer of the letter, he is identified by Messrs. Cooper, in their " Athenae Cantabrigienses"
(vol. i. p. 559), as Emery or Edmund Tylney, one of the "poor scholars" of Corpus Christi
College, who appears to have taken no degree.
He published at London, in 1568, "A brief and pleasant Discourse of Duties in Llariage, called the Flower of Frieudshippe," dedicated to Queen Elizabeth.
It was republished in 1571, and again in 1577.
Foxe introduces the letter in the following terms, immediately after the first paragraph, which is quoted at page 149 :
" But before I enter into his [George Wishart's] Articles, I thought it not impertinent somewhat to touch concerning the life and conversation of this godly man, according as of late came to my hands, certified in writing by a certaine schoUer of his, sometime named Emery Tylney, whose words of testimoniall, as he wrote them to me, heere follow :
[Emery Tylney's account of Master George Wischart.] About the yeare of our Lord a thousand, five hundreth, fourtie and three, there was, in the Universitie of Cambridge, one Maister George
Wischart, commonly called Maister George of Bennet's Colledge, who was a man of tall stature, polde headed, and on the same a round French cap of the best ; judged of melancholy complexion by his physiognomie
; blacke-haired, long-bearded, comely of personage, well spoken after his countrey of Scotland ; courteous, lowly, lovely, glad to teach, desirous to learne, and was well travailed
; having on him for his habit or clothing never but a mantell frieze gowne to the shooes, a blacke Millian fustian doublet, and plaine black hosen, course new Canvasse for his Shirtes, and white falling bandes and Cufi"es at his hands.
All the which apparell he gave to the poore, some weekley, some monethly, some quarterlye, as hee liked, saving
Ills French Cappe, which hee kept the whole yeare of my being with him.
Hee was a man modest, temperate, fearing God, hating covetousnesse ; for his charity had never ende, night, nooue, nor daye.
He forbare one meale in three, one day in foure for the most part, except something to comfort nature.
Hee lay hard upon a poutfe of straw, coarse new Canvasse Sheetes, which, when he changed, hee gave away.
Hee had commonly by his bedside a tubbe of water, in the which (his people beeing in bed, the candle put out, and all quiet) hee used to bathe himselfe, as I, being verie yong, being assured, often heard him, and, in one light night, discerned him.
Hee loved me tenderly, and I him, for my age, as effectually.
Hee taught with great modestie and gravitie, so that some of his people thought him severe, and would have slaine him ; but the Lord was his defence.
And hee, after due correction for their malice, by good exhortation amended them and hee

! that the Lord had left him to niee, his poore boy, that he might have finished that hee had begunne ; for in his religion hee was, as you see heere in the rest of his life, when hee went into Scotland with divers of the Nobilitie that came for a treatie to King Henrie the Eight.
His learning no lesse sufficient than his desire, alwayes prest and readie to do good in that he was able, both in the house privatly, and in the Schoole publikely, professing and reading divers authours.
If I should declare his love to me and all men, his charitie to the poore in giving, relieving, caring, helping, providing, yea, infinitely studying how to do good unto al, and hurt to none, I should sooner want words then just cause to commend him.
All this I testify with my whole heart and trueth of this godly man.

The Common Band, December 1557.
The mutual engagement to support the cause of the Reformation by the Lords of the Congregation, in December 1557, is given by Knox in this part of his History.
It is best known as " The Common or Godly Band;" and there is reason to conjecture that copies of it, like the more celebrated National Confession or Covenant in 1638, had been prepared to obtain the signatures of adherents in different parts of the country.
Knox gives it as dated the 3d of December, Calderwood makes it the 23d, while in an original copy, discovered among the fiimily papers of Erskiue of Little Sauchy, the day of the month is left blank.
This original copy was exhibited by my worthy friend, the Rev.
James Young, at the great meeting held at Edinburgh in August 1860, to commemorate the third Centenary of the Reformation in Scotland.
At the same time Mr. Young gave an elaborate and interesting communication on the subject, of which copies were printed in a separate form, and the substance of it was incorporated in the volume edited by the Rev. Dr. Wylie, under the title :
" TerCentenary of the Scottish Reformation," &c.

Sir James Sandilands op Calder.—In the footnote, it is said he probably survived till the beginning of 1560.
From his Confirmed Testament (recorded 24th November 1567) it appears that he died in December 1559.
Page 317.—Mr. James Halyburton, Tutor of Petcur, was present at the siege of Broughty in 1547-8, as stated in vol. ii. p. 258, note 6.
He filled the office of Provost of Dundee for the long period of thirtythree years.
This we learn from the following inscription on the monument erected to his memory within the New Church, Dundee.
It omits to notice that he held for some years the titular office of Commendator of the Priory of Pittenweem.
I find that, upon the death of John Rewll, Prior in 1553, this benefice was conferred on Lord James Stewart,
Prior of St. Andrews, of which Pittenweem was a dependency.
In the view of obtaining possession of the Castle of Edinburgh, Lord James, then Earl of Murray, and Regent, resigned the Priory in favour of Mr.
(afterwards Sir) James Balfour, at the end of August 1567, who held it m commendam till 1578-9, when " Mag. Jacobus Balfour de Pittendreich miles," in the Treasurer's accounts is styled " oUm Commenda-

At a later period (1616) the Priory and its i^ossessions were erected into a temporal lordship, by the title of Lord Pittenweem in favour of Stewart, but the title became extinct in the person of his son.

The Queen Regent.—]\Ir.
Tytler, in the proofs and illustrations to his History of Scotland, vol. vi. number 7, has given various interesting particulars to illustrate the intrigues of the Queen Dowager Mary of Guise during her visit to France in the year 1550.
These are derived from the correspondence of Sir John Mason, the English Ambassador at the Court of France.
On the 10th of May 1551, Sir John Mason says, "The Dowager of > Monteith's Theater of Mortality.

The King (Henry II.) would fixin be rid of her, and she, as she pretendeth, would fain be gone."
She remained, however, for some months, and on returning through England she had an interview with Edward VI., on the 4th of November 1551.
Page 317-320.—In the Spalding Miscellany, vol. iv. pp.
88-92, there is inserted a collection of papers connected with the Erskines of Dun, from the originals found at the house of Dun.
Along with these, at p. 88, is given the copy of "Ane Letter written to the Queen's
Grace and Regent, be the Professouris of Christis Evangell in the Realme of Scotland," dated the Gth of May 1559, and having in a later hand the name of John Erskyne of Dun, Superintendent of Mernis and Angus.
It was probably written at the time that Erskine visited the Queen at Stirling, to endeavour to pacify her when several of the preachers had been summoned to appear on the 10th of that month.
Page 349.—The Provost of St. Andrews, who, with the Council in 1559, consented to the demolition of idolatrous objects in the churches of that city, was Patrick Learmonth, son and heir of Sir James Learmonth of Balcomy and Dairsy (see note to p.
174), who had also been Provost for many years at an earlier period.
According to " tlie Register Book of the Cite of Sanctandrows," Patrick Lermonth of Dersy was
Provost in the years 1550 to 1554.
Balcomy is in the parish of Crail, and Dairsie is a separate parish, also in Fife.
The Castle of Dairsie, nowin ruins, was a place of consequence, a Parliament having been held there in 1335.
The property of Dairsie passed about the year 161G into the hands of Archbishop Spottiswood, who erected a bridge of three arches across the Eden, and also rebuilt the parish church.
Pitscottie refers to Patrick Learmonth, Laird of Dairsy and Provost of St. Andrews, having joined the Reformers, in 1559, with 500 men well armed.
In the old Register of the Kirk-Session of the City and Parish of St. Andrews, 1559, there is preserved " The tennor of the Letters conteynand the names of all them that are adjoyuet to the Congregatioun within this Cietie."
It contains in aU 304 names, the first being Patrick Lermonth of Darsy, Provost (see the names printed in the Maitlaud Miscellany, vol. iii. p. 211).
The names of eighteen priests and nine laymen also occur as having given tlieir adherence on the 3d of February 1559-60 {lb. p.
214).
He was knighted in 1562 (see infra, p. 688) ; and a charter of confirmation of parts of the lands of Raderny was granted under the Great Seal to Sir Patrick Learmonth of Dairsy and Isobell Balfour, his spouse, 14th December 1581.

Page 354.—In the signatures to " the Assurance," 13th June 1559, after many ingenious conjectures as to the proper reading of the French signature, which Knox's amanuensis says " he could nocht read," there is no doubt that it stands for H. Cleutin, better known as the Sieur
D'Oysell.
I l\ave seen the same signature to some original papers.
During his visit to Edinburgh, his name was enrolled in the list of Register, lOtli January 1557-8:—" Decimo Januarij Anno predicto burgesses, as we learn from the following extract from the Burgess [1557-8] :

In the footnote he is stated to have died in 1571.
This is a mistake : the oflBce of High Treasurer became vacant, not, as Crawfurd says, by Richardson's death, but by his resignation.
In May 1572, Mr. Robert Richartsoun, Priour of Sanct Marie He, by a precept of my Lord Regeutis graces precept, received his pension of £500 ; and this sum was paid him at each Whitsunday and Martinmas term, till May 1578, having probably died before the month of November following.
In August 1579, there was paid the sum of £5000 " be the Kingis Majesteis precept to Robert Richartsoun, son to umquhile

ADDITIONAL NOTES AND CORRECTIONS.
Page 380.—A General Band betwixt the Lords and Barons, &c., OF the Congregation at Edinburgh, 13th of July 1559.
This Band seems to have been overlooked by Knox, but it is preserved in the earliest Kegister of the Kirk-Session of St. Andrews, when recording the names of the adherents in that city (supm, p. 680) :— We, quhais names ar underwa-itten, pones ws in all thinges conforme to the generall band maid betuix the Lordis and Baronis of Congregatioun, at Edinburgh, the xiii day of Julii, anno, &c., 1559, to the Congregatioun and memberis to assist in mutuall support with the said Congi'egatioun with our Bodies, geir, and force, for maynteyning of the trew religioun of Christe, and downe putting of all superstitioun and idolatrie, conforme to the said Band, quherof the tennor followis, and is this :—WE, QUHAIS Names are underwritten, quhilkis hes subscrivit thir presentes with our handis, haifand respect to our dewties in setting fordwart the glorie of God, and knawand alswa that we are commaudit to jeone ourselfis togiddir as memberis of ane Body for the furtherance of the samyn, dois, in the name of Christe Jesus, unite ourseh's, that we in ane mynde and ane spirite may endivour ws, with our haill power and diligence, to walk fordwart in the ways of the Lord, laboring to destroy and put downe all idolatrie, abhominationes, superstitiones, and quhatsumever thing dois exalte the self against the Majestic of our God, and maynteyn and set up the trew religioun of Clniste, his word and sacramentes ; and alswa assist and defend the trew ]Ministers therof.

the substance of the Prior's answer.
He professes to have translated them word by word from the French into Latin.
In the enlarged edition of Holinshed's Chronicle by Harrison (Scotland, p. 367), Lond. 1586, it is said, " which letters being by Lesleus turned out of French into Latine, are by me thus delyvered in English, with the answer of the Prior to the same."
This system of translation will readily account for the variation in the ditferent copies, including the versions given by Knox and Spottiswoode.
The first letters are dated at Paris the 16th and 9th Kalends of August, that is, the 16th and 24th of July 1559.
The Queen's letter (see vol. i.
App. p.
562) has this subscription, " Your good cousine Marie."
Page 437.—The date of the Second Letter of Admonition to the Queen Regent from the Lords of the Congregation, was, at Edinburgh, the 19th of October 1559, and that of the Queen's brief indignant reply, at Leith, two days later.
The copies printed by Haynes in the Burghley Papers, pp. 211, 212, present some slight verbal differences, not necessary to be here specified.
Page 459, note 5, and vol. ii. p. 129, note 1, to be read as follows :
Sir John Maxwell of Terreglis (see p. 319, note 1) was the second son of Robert, fourth Lord Maxwell, who died 9th July 1546.
Robert, the eldest son, who succeeded as fifth Lord Maxwell, having died 14th September 1552, his posthumous son, John, became sixth Lord; but during all this time Sir John was styled the Master of Maxwell, as presumptive heir to the title.
He is usually, but erroneously, said to have assumed the title of Lord Herries, in virtue of his wife's right, as co-heiress of William, fourth Lord Herries, of Terreglis.
He was created Lord Herries by Mary Queen of Scots in 1567.
Pages 465, 467.—The Sermon or Exposition on the verses of the 80th Psalm, begun by Knox in Edinburgh when the Lords of the Congregation fled to Stirling, " in the greatest of our trubles," was there concluded.
It was evidently on this occasion that a paper, or Apology for this hasty flight, was written, to which Mr. Tytler refers in the following terms, on the mistaken supposition that it related to Knox's leaving Scotland in July 1556 :
" in a collection of manuscript letters relative to Scottish history, in the possession of Mr. Dawson Turner, and which the kindness of that gentleman permitted me to look over, there is an anonymous paper, entitled ' The Apology of our Departure,' which appears to me to be the composition of the Reformer at this interesting crisis.
It proves that Knox fled for his life. " (History, vol. vi. p. 80, note t.) I was of course anxious to obtain a transcript of a paper so described, but on application was not successful.
ADDITIONAL NOTES AND CORRECTIONS.
Mr. Turner's manuscriijts were sold by auction in Loudon in June 1859, and in a very remarkable series of original letters, &c., relating to Scotland, in two volumes (No. 416), this Apology was specified as " relating to Queen Mary's Abdication in 15G8."
These volumes were bought, on speculation, at a very large price, by Mr.
Thomas Thorpe ; and being re-sold in separate lots, the date of this " Apology" was tlien assigned to 1566, and said to be in Knox's autograph.
It fetched the sum of £21, but was returned by the purchaser, as erroneously described.
I was previously indebted to Mr.
Thorpe for an accurate transcript of this paper, when I felt quite satisfied that the dates assigned were each of them incorrect, and that the paper had no personal reference to Knox individually.
Having afterwards examined the original, I could have no hesitation in stating that it had no pretensions to be in the handwriting of the Reformer—neither did it appear to me to be his composition.
But this is a point which I may now leave each reader to judge for himself.
In printing it, I thought it useless to retain some contractions ; and if I were to suggest the probable writer of this interesting State Paper, it might be either AVilliam Maitland OF Lethington or John Erskine of Dun.
The Apologie off our Departur.

John Foxe's " Actes and Monuments," or. Book OF Martyrs.
The original edition of this important work, published in 1564, is described at p. 505.
At the time I had no opportunity of examining the second edition, which is not less rare, in a perfect state, than the first.
The work was then greatly enlarged, being " newly recognized by the author," and forms two large volumes, printed at London by John
Daye, in 1570.
The third edition was also printed by Daye, in smaller type, in the year 1576.
The author again republished his work, by John Daye, 1583, in two vols, folio.
In these three editions there are occasional alterations or additions, but they are substantially the same.
The editions republished subsequently to the author's death, were, the fifth, Lond.
1596-7, two vols.
; the sixth. Loud. 1610, two vols.
; the seventh, Lond. 1632, three vols.
; the eighth, Lond. 1641, three vols.
; the ninth, Lond. 1684, three vols., all in folio.
The later editions, or abridgments, need not be specified.

courtiers and ministers respecting the toleration of such idolatrous worship.
The subject was renewed in June 15G4, as detailed at the close of Book Fourth of his History of the Reformation.
The discovery of his letter to Calvin on the subject, has laid Knox open to the charge of duplicity in suppressing the fact of his previously having written such a letter.
It is dated October 24th, 15G1, and is printed, with a translation, in the present volume, at page 133.
I cannot offer any satisfactory explanation of his apparent want of candour.
It could not have escaped his recollection, but he might have had no copy of his letter to exhibit.
He at least would gain nothing by his silence respecting what he might consider a private letter : his voluntary otier, within eight days, was to be authorized to address a formal letter to Calvin in the name of all those ivho ivere present at the said Conference.
Excepting his own statements, we have no account of either Conference.
Page 311, note 2.—Instead of Sir, read Mr. James AVishart.

In the Glossary the editor explains the terms grandscJiir, as great-grandfather ; guitschir, grandfather.

He was present when Knox delivered his last sermon before King Edward VI. and his Council at Westminster, about April or May 1554, in which he says he spoke so plainly,
" even to the faces of such as of whom I meant."
" Sobna," or " Shebna," was meant for Sir William Paulet Marquis of Winchester, as explained in the footnote to p. 283
; but who the Treasurer was, described under the name of Judas, is uncertain.

Mrs. Anna Lok or Locke.
The family with which Knox's friend and correspondent, Mrs. Locke, was allied by marriage, appear to have been opulent merchants in London.
John Locke was Sheritt" of London in 1461; and with Jane, his wife, was enfeofled with the mansion of Merton Place, co. Surrey, in 1499.
His son, Thomas Locke, of Loudon, merchant and mercer, married Joan, sole daughter and heiress of Wilcotts of Rotherham, co.
York.
Thomas Locke died in 1507, and was buried in the Mercers'
Chapel, London.
His eldest son, John Locke, died in 1509, without issue.
William Locke, mercer, his second son, afterwards knighted, was Sherifi" of London in 1548, and died 24th of August 1550.
He was four times married, lea\dng by his first and second wives a large family.
Henry Locke, mercer, London, was probably his ehlest son.
He was the husband of Mrs. Anna Locke, Knox's correspondent.
His will, recorded in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, dated 28th of January 1570-71, and on which probate was granted the last of October that year, is in the following terms :
" In the Name of God, Amen.—I, Henry Lok, presenthe I thanke my God of perfecte memorie, thoughe sicke and weake in bodie, doe make this my last will and testament in manner and form following

As touching my worldelie goods, whatsoever they be, I give and bequeathe them to my wife, Anne Loke.
And I doe make my onelie executor unto this my last will, my good and well-beloved Brother, Michaell Lok.—And in witness," &c.
Not having been able to ascertain the maiden name of Mrs. Anna Locke, I must still leave it uncertain whether she ought in any way to be identified with Mrs. Anna Prouze of Exeter.
John Field, in 1583 (see vol. iv. p. 114), mentions Mrs. Prouze, "who had lived in exile," as the widow of the celebrated Edward Deering, the Puritan divine, and as having been an old friend and correspondent of the Scottish Reformer.
Henry Locke having died in 1571, it is quite possible his widow might have been married to Deering (see vol. iv. p.
92), who only sui-vived to 1576, and that she afterwards may have resumed her maiden name, if this was Prouze.
But it is fully as probable that Field was mistaken in the account which he has given of Mrs. Prouze.
In the will of Henry Locke no mention is made of any children one or more of whom died at Geneva.
It is therefore a matter of conjecture whether Henry Lok (supra, p.
7), who was in Scotland during the latter part of the sixteenth century, was his son or nephew.
He is styled by Anthony Wood " a divine poet ;" and was the author, in 1597, of a rare volume, " Ecclesiastes, otherwise called the Preacher; whereunto are annexed sundrie Sonnets of Christian Passions,"
&c.

Michaell Locke, mentioned in the preceding will, had at least three sons, Matthew, Christopher, and John Locke.
Christopher had six sons and three daughters.
His fourth son, John Locke, who married Agnes Kenn, was the father of the celebrated John Locke, the philosopher.—(See Article in Notes and Queries,

It is to be observed, that these MSS. often vary in giving only portions of such letters, but they have been carefuUy compared, and I imagine no passages, with this slight exception, have been overlooked.

In dispensing the Sacrament, the practice seems to be varied at different periods.
A Popish writer, towards the close of the sixteenth century, mentions, that it was the usual custom to observe its celebration in the Protestant churches a month.—(W. Reynolds's Answer to Robert Bruce's certain Sermons on the Sacrament, p. 156.
Antwerp, 1593.) Page 132.—Randolph, in writing to Sir William Cecil on the 12th of October 1561, alludes to Knox's letter, No. LXL, as follows :

4to.) Page 334.—In the footnote relating to William Stewart, in place of the words at the end, that his fate was somewhat uncertain, read^ " his fate was very striking, and in some respects unaccountable."
Without entering into minute details, it may be noticed that, soon after returning from one of his missions, as Ross Herald, to Denmark, he received, on the 20th of February 1567-8, a commission, constituting him Lyon King-at-Arms, in the room of Sir Robert Forman, deceased ; and, two days later, he was inaugurated in St. Giles's Kirk, in presence of the Regent and Nobility.
Yet, in the month of August following, Stewart was deprived of his office, and sent a prisoner to Dunbarton, on the charge of conspiring against the Regent.
After twelve months' imprisonment, he was carried to St. Andrews, and the conspiracy being disproved, he was tried for witchcraft and sorcery, and sentenced to be burnt.
The proceedings of his trial are not preserved, and there appears something vindictive in the Regent Murray's conduct towards him.
His widow obtained a grant of tlae escheat of all his goods and property falling to the Crown, " throw being of the said umquhile William Stewart, sumtyme Lioun King of Armes, convict and justifiet to the dead for certane crymes of witchcraft, nigromancye, and utheris crymes committit be him."—(Reg.
