Thither was she brought, and by the meanes of the said Richard Master, and Ed|ward Bocking, that was now made of counsell in the matter, there assembled about two thousand per|sons at the daie appointed of hir thither comming, to sée the miracle. At which daie, being brought be|fore all that assemblie and multitude of people, shee falselie feigned and shewed vnto the people in the chappell of our ladie there in Court at Street,A forged miracle. manie alterations of hir face, and other outward sensible parts of hir bodie, and in those transes she vttered woonderous words, as she was before subtilie and craftilie induced, and taught by the said Edward Bocking and Richard Master.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 And amongst other things she vttered, that it was the pleasure of God, that the said Bocking should be hir ghostlie father, and that she should be a religious woman. And within a while, after such feig|ned and counterfeit transes, she appeared to the peo|ple to be suddenlie relieued from hir sickenesse and afflictions, by the intercession and meane of the i|mage of our ladie, being in the same chappell. By reason of which hypocriticall dissimulation, the said Elizabeth was brought into a maruellous same, credit,Elizabeth Barton be|comm [...]th a nun. and good opinion of a great multitude of the people of this realme. And to increase the same, by counsell of the said Edward Bocking, she became a EEBO page image 937 nun in the prsorie of saint Sepulchres at Canturbu|rie, to whome the said Edward Bocking had com|monlie his resort, not without suspicion of inconti|nencie, pretending to be hir ghostlie father by Gods appointment. And by conspiracie betwene hir & him, she still continued in practising hir dissembled tran|ses, alledging, that in the same she had reuelations from almightie God and his saints, and amongst o|ther, that which (as before we haue mentioned) tou|ched the kings mariage, as ye haue heard.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 This matter proceeded so farre, that there was a booke written by hir complices, and namelie by Thomas Laurence, register to the archbishop of Canturburie, of hir feigned and counterfeit mi|racles, reuelations, and hypocriticall holinesse. All things were handled so craftilie, that not one|lie the simple, but also the wise and learned sort were deceiued by the same,The archbi|s [...]op of Can|tur [...]urie and [...]bishop of Rochester giue credit to [...] hypocriti|cal pra [...]tises. insomuch that Wil|liam Warham the late archbishop of Canturbu|rie, and Iohn Fisher bishop of Rochester, and di|uerse others, being informed thereof, gaue credit thereto. All which matters and manie other had bene traitorouslie practised and imagined amongest the parties manie yeres, chieflie to interrupt the diuorse and to destroie the king, and to depriue him from the crowne and dignitie roiall of this realme, as in the act of their attaindor made more at large it maie appeare, and likewise in the chronicles of maister Edward Hall.
