in the night privily slaine at London, and

common practice in this City; that a hun
dred or more in a company, young and old,
would make nightly invasions upon houses
of the wealthy, to the intent to rob them,
and if they found any man stirring in the
City within the night, that were not of their
crue,
insomuch, that when night was come, no
man durst adventure to walk in the streets.
When this had continued long, it fortuned,
that as a crue of yong and wealthy Citizens
assembling together in the night, assaulted
a stone house of a certaine rich man, and
breaking through the wall, the good man
of that house, having prepared himselfe
with other in a corner, when hee percei
ved one of the theeves, named Andrew
Bucquint, to lead the way, with a burning
brand in the one hand, and a pot of coles in
the other, which hee assaied to kindle with
the brand, he flew upon him, and smote off
his right hand, and then with a loud voyce
cryed theeves. At the hearing whereof, the
theeves tooke their flight, all saving he that
had lost his hand, whom the good man (in

In the Months of Iune and Iuly,
Vigils of Festivall dayes, and on the
same Festivall dayes in the Evenings,
after the Sun-setting, there were usually
made Bone-fires in the streets, every
man bestowing wood or labour towards
them. The wealthier sort also before
their doores, neere to the said Bonefires
would set out Tables on the Vigils, fur
nished with sweete bread, and good
drinke, and on the Festivall dayes with
meats and drinkes plentifully, where
unto they would invite their neigh
bours and passengers also to sit, and
be merry with them in great familiarity,
praysing God for his benefits bestowed
on them. These were called Bonefires,
as well of amity amongst neighbours,
that being before at controversie, were
there by the labour of others reconciled,
and made of bitter enemies, loving
friends; as also for the vertue that a great
fire hath, to purge the infection of the
ayre. On the Vigill of Saint Iohn Bap

and on Saint Peter and Paul the A
postles, every mans doore being shad
dowed with greene Birch, long Fennel,
Saint Iohns wort, Orpin, white Lilies,
and such like, garnished upon with
Garlands of beautifull flowers,
Lamps of glasse, with Oyle burning in
them all the night; some hung out bran
ches of Iron curiously wrought, contai
ning hundreds of Lamps lighted at once,
which made a goodly shew, namely in
new Fish street, Thames-street, &c. Then
had ye besides the standing watches, all
in bright harnesse, in every Ward and
street of this City and Suburbs, a mar
ching watch, that passed through the
principall streets thereof, to wit, from
the little Conduit by Pauls gate, through
West Cheape, by the Stocks, through
Cornehill, by Leaden hall to Aldgate, then

of every Cresset was in light two shil

to beare a bag with light, and to serve it:
so that the poore men pertaining to the
Cressets, taking wages, besides that eve

painted, & his break fast in the morning,
amounted in number to almost 2000.

King Henry then considering the great
charges of the Citizens, for the furni

marching Watch provided for at Mid
summer for that yeere; which being
once laid downe, was not raised againe
till the yeere 1548. the second of Ed
ward the sixth, Sir Iohn Gresham then
being Maior, who caused the marching
Watch, both on the Eve of Saint Iohn
Baptist, and of S. Peter the Apostle, to
be revived and set forth, in as comely
order as it had been accustomed; which
Watch was also beautified by the num

zens to be sent into Scotland, for the re

others, kept by the Englishmen since

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.
