|
---|
| 63 | was beheaded on Tower Hill.&nbsp; There was as great a company as has been
|
---|
| 64 | seen... the king's guard being there with their halberds and a thousand
|
---|
| 65 | more with halberds of the privilege of the Tower, Ratcliffe, Limehouse,
|
---|
| 66 | Whitechapel, St Katherine's and Stratford Bow, as well as Hoxton and Shoreditch;
|
---|
| 67 | and the two sheriffs being present there, seeing the execution of my lord,
|
---|
| 68 | and his head being cut off, and shortly after his body was put into a coffin
|
---|
| 69 | and carried into the Tower, and there buried in the church, on the northside
|
---|
| 70 | of the choir of St Peter's, and I beseech God to have mercy on his soul,
|
---|
| 71 | amen!&nbsp; And there was a sudden rumbling a little before he died, as
|
---|
| 72 | if it had been guns shooting and great horses coming, so that a thousand
|
---|
| 73 | fell to the ground for fear, for they who were at one side thought no other
|
---|
| 74 | but that one was killing another, so that they fell down to the ground,
|
---|
| 75 | one upon another with their halberds, some fell into the ditch of the Tower
|
---|
| 76 | and other places, and a hundred into the Tower ditch, and some ran away
|
---|
| 77 | for fear.
