That night doctor Sands was guided to an ho|nest farmer neere the sea, where he taried two daies and two nights in a chamber without all companie. After that he shifted to one Iames Mower a ship|master, who dwelt at Milton shore, where he expec|ted wind for the English fléet readie into Flanders. While he was there, Iames Mower brought to him fortie or fiftie mariners,God stirreth vp the harts of the mari|ners to fansie doctor Sands &c. to whome he gaue an exhor|tation; they liked him so well, that they promised to die for it, yer that he should be apprehended. The sixt of Maie, being sundaie the wind serued: he tooke his leaue of his host and hostesse, and went towards the ship. In taking leaue of his hostesse who was ba|ren, and had beene married eight yeares, he gaue hir a fine handkercher and also an old roiall of gold in it, thanking hir much,Doctor Sands his propheticall blessing to his hostesse at his departing. and said: Be of good comfort, yer that an whole yéere be past God shall giue you a child a boie. And it came to passe, for that daie twelue mo|neths lacking one daie, God gaue hir a faire sonne.

At the shore doctor Sands met with maister I|saac of Kent, who had his eldest sonne there, who vp|on the liking he had to doctor Sands, sent his sonne with him, who afterward died in his fathers house in Frankford. Doctor Sands and doctor Cox were both in one ship, being one Cokrels ship. They were within the kenning when two of the gard came thi|ther to apprehend doctor Sands. They arriued at Antwerpe, being bid to dinner to maister Locke. And at dinner time one George Gilpin being secre|tarie to the English house, and kinsman to doctor Sands, came to him and rounded him in his eare, and said; King Philip hath sent to make search for you, and to apprehend you. Herevpon they rose from their dinner in a maruellous great shower, and went out at the gate toward the land of Cleue; there they found a wagon and hasted awaie,Doctor Sands and doctor Cox go by wagon into Cleueland. and came safe to Auspurge in Cleueland, where doctor Sands tar|ried foureteene daies, and then iournied towards Strasborough, where after he had liued one yeare, his wife came vnto him. He fell sore sicke of a flix which kept him nine moneths, and brought him to deaths doore. He had a child which fell sicke of the plague and died.
