Sir Edward Neuill, brother to the said lord of A|burgauennie, was forbidden the kings presence. Moreouer, in the Guildhall, within the citie of Lon|don, before Iohn Brugge knight, then lord maior of the same citie, by an inquest whereof one Miles Gerrard was foreman, the said duke was indicted of diuerse points of high treason, as by the same indic|ment it appeareth.
Compare 1577 edition: 1 Namelie, that the said duke intending to exalt him|selfe,The effect of the dukes [...]. and to vsurpe the crowne, the roiall power, and dignitie of the realme of England, and to depriue the kings maiestie thereof, that he the said duke might take vpon him the same; against his allegi|ance, had the tenth daie of March, in the second yéere of the kings maiesties reigne,The duke is [...] of [...] in Lon|don. and at diuerse other times before and after, imagined and compassed the kings death and destruction at London, & at Thorne|burie, in the countie of Glocester.

The effect or substance of whose message was, to vnderstand of one Nicholas Hopkins, a monke of the same house (who was vainelie reputed by waie of reuelation to haue foreknowledge of things to come) what should happen concerning the matters which he had imagi|ned. Which monke, causing the said de la Court first to sweare vnto him, not to disclose his words to a|nie maner of person, but onelie to the duke his mai|ster: therewith declared, that his maister the said duke should haue all, willing him for the accomplish|ment of his purpose, to séeke to win the fauour of the people. De la Court came backe with this answer, and told it to the duke at Thorneburie the morrow after, being the twentie fift of Aprill.

And being asked as well now, as before at the first time, how he knew this to be true: he said, By the grace of God. And with this answer de la Court now also returning, declared the same vnto the duke, the twentie fourth of Iulie at Thorneburie aforesaid. Moreouer, the said duke sent the same de la Court a|gaine to the said monke with his letters, the six and twentith of Aprill, in the fift yeare of the kings reigne, when the king was to take his iournie into France; requiring to vnderstand what should be|come of these warres: and whether the Scotish king should in the kings absence inuade the realme or not. The monke (among other things) for answer of these letters, sent the duke word,But herein the moonke lied. that the king should haue no issue male.
