This Ward beginneth in the East,

On the South side of this street from

Against this West gate of the Tower
Royall, is one other Lane, that runneth
West to Cordwainer street, and this is
called Turnebase lane: on the South side
whereof is a piece of Wring-wren lane, to
the North-west corner of Saint Thomas
Church the Apostle. Then againe out

The upper part of this street towards

the ninth of Edward the second. I have
not read of Sope-making in this Ci

white, very sweet and good, from Bri

Here lyes the Lady
Martin eke,
Of Grecia soyle,
and Castlynes race,
Both constant, vertuous,
wise and meeke,
That shewed her selfe
in any place.
And God endued her
so with grace,
That she both liv’d
and dy’d with praise.
Two husbands had she
in her dayes,
Whose corps are both
inclosed here,
Together with
the foresaid Dame:
Her love to them
was aye so deare,
Her cost and charge
sustain’d the same:
These three, their deeds
will shew their fame:
Who as she liv’d in amity,
So here she sleepes in unity.

And Thomas Knowles
is placed here,
At the west end of the same Tombe.
Whose bones from Bow
were hither borne:
His godly life
did well appeare,
In helping those
that were forlorne,
And vertue did
him so adorne,
That he beloved
was of all:
Mercer1 he was,
when death did call,
In prime of yeeres
his life alway:
Who dying like
a worthy wight,
Did hope in Christ,
to live for aye.
His wife him wailes
in wofull plight,
And for meere love,
him here she pight,
With her second Spouse
to sleepe in peace;
And she with them,
when life shall cease.

Over a little doore in the South side of the
Quire,
the Church, was found an ancient figure
of a man, clothed in Scarlet furred, hol

having rings on the thumbe and fingers
of his left hand, and two bookes before
him, one closed, and the other lying open,
with these words to be read:

Next on the South side of Budge row,
by the West corner thereof, and on the
East side of Cordwainer street, is one o

was laid there by Henry Keble, Grocer,
Maior, who deceased 1518. and was

and hasten every day,
Yet vertue over-lives the Grave,
her fame doth not decay:
As memories doe shew reviv’d,
of one that was alive,
Who being dead, of vertuous fame,
none should seeke to deprive;
Which so in life deserv’d renowne,
for facts of his to seee,
That may encourage other now,
of like good mind to be.
Sir Henry Keble, Knight, Lord Maior
of London, here he sate,
the chiefest in his state,
Which in this Citie grew to wealth,
and unto worship came,
of that redoubted name:
But he to honour did atchieve
the second golden yeere
and made his fact appeare.
When he this Aldermanry Church
’gan build with great expence,
Twice thirty yeeres agon, no doubt,
counting the time from hence:
Which worke began the yeere of Christ,
well knowne of Christen men,
One thousand and five hundred just,
if ye will adde but ten.
But lo, when man purposeth most,
God doth dispose the best,
And so before this worke was done,
God call’d this Knight to rest.
This Church as then not fully built;
he dyed about the yeere,
When Ill May day first tooke his name,
which is downe fixed here:
1516.
Whose workes became a Sepulcher,
to shrowd him in that case:
God tooke his soule, but corps of his
was laid about this place.
Who when he dyed, of this his worke
so mindfull still he was,
That he bequeath’d a thousand pounds
to have it brought to passe.
The execution of whose gift,
or where the fault should be,
The worke as yet unfinished
shall shew you all for me▪
VVhich Church stands there; if any please
to finish up the same,
As he hath well begun, no doubt,
and to his endlesse fame;
their Talent in this life,
But after death, when bones be rot,
their fame shall be most rife;
With thankfull praise and good report
of our Parochians here,
Which have of right Sir Henries fame,
afresh renewed this yeere.
God move the minds of wealthy men,
their workes so to bestow
As he hath done, that though they dye,
their vertuous fame may flow.

Et floret fato non violenda truci.

Sir William Laxtons wife,

This Church is of Cordwainer street
Ward, and for divers accidents hapning
there, hath bin made more famous than
any other Parish Church of the whole
Citie, or Suburbs. First we read, that
in the yeere 1090. and the third of Wil
liam Rufus, by tempest of wind, the
roofe of the Church of Saint Mary Bow
in Cheape was overturned, wherewith
some persons were slaine, and foure of
the rafters of sixe and twenty foot in
length, with such violence were pitched
in the ground of the high street, that
scantly foure foot of them remained a
bove ground, which were faine to bee
cut even with the ground, because they
could not be plucked out; for the Citie
of London was not then paved, but a
moorish ground.

In the yeere 1196. William Fitz Os
bert, a seditious Traitor, tooke the stee
ple of Bow, and fortified it with muni
tions and victuals; but it was assaulted,
and William with his complices, were
taken (though without blood-shed) for
he was forced by fire and smoke to for
sake the Church, and then being by the
Iudges condemned, he was by the heels
drawne to the Elmes in Smithfield,
there hanged with nine of his fellowes,
where because his favoures came not
to deliver him, he forsooke Maries Son,
(as he termed Christ our Saviour) & cal
led upon the Divell to help and deliver
him. Such was the end of this deceiver,
a man of an evill life, a secret murtherer,
a filthy fornicator, a polluter of concu
bines, and (amongst other his detestable
facts) a false accuser of his elder brother,
who had (in his youth) brought him up

his preferment.

In the yeere 1271. a great part of the
Steeple of Bow fell downe,
ny people, men and women. In the yeere
1284. the thirteenth of Edward the first,
Laurence Ducket, Goldsmith, having
grievously wounded one Ralph Crepin
in West Cheape, fled into Bow Church,
into the which (in the night time)
entred certaine evill persons, friends
unto the sayd Ralph, and slew the sayd
Laurence lying in the Steeple, and then
hanged him up, placing him so by the
window, as if hee had hanged himselfe,
and so was it found by inquisition. For

Former Student Contributors
We’d also like to acknowledge students who contributed to MoEML’s intranet predecessor at the University of Windsor between 1999 and 2003. When we redeveloped MoEML for the Internet in 2006, we were not able to include all of the student projects that had been written for courses in Shakespeare, Renaissance Drama, and/or Writing Hypertext. Nonetheless, these students contributed materially to the conceptual development of the project.
