On the East side of this Foster lane,
Engaine lane end, is the Goldsmiths
Hall, a proper house, but not large. And
therefore to say that Bartholomew Read,
Goldsmith, Maior in the yeere, 1502.
kept such a feast in this Hall, as some
have fabuled, is farre incredible, and
altogether unpossible, considering the
smalnesse of the Hall, and number of the
guests, which as they say, were more
than 100. persons of great estate. For
the messes and dishes of meats to them
served, the paled Parke in the same
Hall, furnished with fruitfull trees,
beasts of Venery, and other circumstan
ces of that pretended feast well weigh
ed, Westminster Hall would hardly have
sufficed; and therefore I will over-passe
it, and note somewhat of principall
Goldsmiths.

Henry Fitz Alewin, Fitz Leafstane,

of Richard the first. Also, that Gregory

Kings Mints within England (and there

first, and continued Maior seven yeeres
together. Then William Faringdon,

BANESTER, Chirurgeon, and Li
centiate in Physicke.
GReat men that ne’re did
good in all their dayes,
But at the very instant
of their death,
Finde yet no meane
commenders of their praise,
Although it lasts no
longer than a-breath:
Shall then good men,
though lesser in degree,
Finde none to give
them right and equity?
If one shall say, The great
mans life was such,
So good, so full
of hospitality:
When God doth know,
he ne’re did halfe so much,
Though thus he must
be grac’d with flattery.
Shall meane men, who
such workes truly did,
Be nothing spoken of?
Oh God forbid.
Not then, as equalling
with any Great,
My fatherly good
friend, Iohn Banester:
No more but truth of
thee let me repeate,
A Sonnes Love-teares,
thy body to interre.
That such as knew thee
better same than I:
May say, Thy vertues
did not with thee dye,
Thy Skill and Practice,
that it selfe commends,
Some of the best have
truely found the same,
Not partially employed
to wealthy friends,
But even the poorest wretch,
the sicke and lame
Felt of the best. Some
difference there might be:
The rich payd somewhat,
Thy care and cost layd out
for common good,
In greater measure
than came in againe:
But that heavens blessing
with thy bounty stood,
Hardly had stretcht
so many to sustaine.
But it is true: The
liberall heart God loves,
And from him still all
cause of lacke removes,
Thy weekly charity
given to the poore
In Bread, beside, in
money from thy Purse:
Even in the hardest yeeres
dealt at thy doore,
When some repin’d that
every day did worse;
Makes poore men say:
Our good reliefe is gone,
Let them goe to thy
find-faults and have none.
Poore maymed Souldiers,
sore-sicke hearted men,
That under miseries
hard Crouch did bow,
Were freely cur’d, me thinkes
they cry: Lord, when,
Where shall we finde
our good Physician now?
I doubt not, but some
others will as much:
Yet (in these dayes) we
finde not many such.
Sleepe then, thou happy
Soule, in endlesse rest,
All good mens groanes
be powred on thy grave:
Live thou in Abrahams
bosome with blest;
Where Faith and VVorkes
due recompence shall have,
My sight growes dimme,
sighing my heart makes sore:
Teares blot my paper,
I can write no more.

Then in St. Martins lane was (of old
time) a faire and large Colledge, of a
Deane and secular Canons or Priests,
and was called Saint Martins le graund,
founded by Ingelricus, and Edwardus his
brother, in the yeere of Christ, 1056.
and confirmed by William the Conque
rour, as appeareth by his Charter dated
1068. This Colledge claimed great
priviledges of Sanctuary,
wise, as appeareth in a booke written
by a Notary of that house, about the
yeere 1442. the nineteenth of Henry the
sixth, wherein amongst other things, is
set downe and declared, that on the first
of September, in the yeere aforesaid, a
Souldier, prisoner in Newgate, as hee
was led by an Officer towards the Guild
hall of London, there came out of Panyer
Alley five of his fellowship, and tooke
him from the Officer, brought him into
Sanctuary, at the West doore of Saint
Martins Church, and tooke grithe of
that place. But the same day Philip
Malpas, and Robert Marshall, then She
riffes of London, with many other entred
the said Church, and forcibly tooke out
with them the said five men thither
fled; led them fettred to the Compter,
and from thence chained by the neckes
to Newgate: of which violent taking,
the Deane and Chapter in large man
ner complained to the King, and requi
red him as their Patron, to defend their
priviledges, like as his Predecessors had
done, &c. All which complaint and
sute, the Citizens by their councell,
Markam, Serjeant at the Law, Iohn
Carpenter,
City, and other, learnedly answered,
offering to prove, that the said place of
Saint Martin had no such immunity or
liberty as was pretended; namely, Car
penter offered to lose his live-lode, if that
Church had more immunity than the
least Church in London: notwithstanding,
after long debating of this con
troversie, by the Kings commande
ment, and assent of his Councell in the
Starre-Chamber, the Chancellour and
Treasurer sent a Writ unto the Sheriffs
of London, charging them to bring the
said five persons, with the cause of their
taking, and withholding afore the King
in his Chancery, on the Vigill of All
hallowes. On which day, the said She
riffes, with the Recorder and Councell
of the City, brought and delivered
