47 | caught the king's eye; her immature and reckless behavior guaranteed a

56 | <p>This year on 13 November Sir Thomas Wriothesley, secretary to the king,
|
---|
57 | came to Hampton Court to the queen, and called all the ladies and gentlewomen
|
---|
58 | and her servants into the great chamber, and there openly before them declared
|
---|
59 | certain offenses she had committed in misusing her body with certain persons
|
---|
60 | before the king's time, because of which he there discharged all her household;
|
---|
61 | and the morning after she was taken to Sion, with my Lady Bainton and two
|
---|
62 | other gentlewomen and certain of her servants to wait on her there until
|
---|
63 | the king's further pleasure.&nbsp; And various people were taken to the
|
---|
64 | Tower of London, such as my Lady Rochford, Master Culpepper, one of the
|
---|
65 | king's privy chamber, and others.
|
---|
66 | <p>On 1 December Thomas Culpepper, one of the gentlemen of the king's privy
|
---|
67 | chamber, and Francis Dorand, gentleman, were arraigned at the Guildhall
|
---|
68 | in London, for high treason against the king's majesty, in misdemeanor
|
---|
69 | with the queen, as appeared by their indictment which they confessed to,
|
---|
70 | and they were sentenced to be drawn, hanged, and quartered, the lord mayor
|
---|
71 | sitting there as chief, the lord chancellor on his right hand, and the
|
---|
72 | duke of Norfolk on his left hand, the duke of Suffolk, the lord privy seal,
|
---|
73 | the earls of Sussex, of Hertford, and various others of the king's council
|
---|
74 | sitting with all the judges also in commission that day.&nbsp; And on 10
|
---|
75 | December the said Culpepper and Dorand were drawn from the Tower of London
|
---|
76 | to Tyburn, and there Culpepper, after exhorting the people to pray for
|
---|
77 | him, stood on the ground by the gallows, knelt down and had his head struck
|
---|
78 | off; and then Dorand was hanged, dismembered, disemboweled, beheaded and
|
---|
79 | quartered.&nbsp; Culpepper's body was buried at St Sepulchre's church near
|
---|
80 | Newgate, and their heads were set on London Bridge.
