[1] Yet the next daie he entring into saint Clements church, tooke occasion to expound somewhat out of one of the lessons that was read that daie, concer|ning these wicked hurliburlies; manie of the rebels comming about him, but not interrupting him a whit, hearing the end of his exhortation, although they séemed greatlie therewith offended. But as he came out of the church, they followed him, and told him that (as they vnderstood) he had three or foure able geldings to serue the king: and therefore charged him that after dinner they might be readie for them to occupie. But doctor Parker made them no great answer,The policie of [...]ctor Par|ker to beguile the rebels. but calling to him his horssekéeper, com|manded him to plucke off the shooes from some of his geldings, and to pare their hooues vnto the quicke; and that he should annoint the other with neruall, as if they had béene lamed with trauell. The rebels perceiuing this, when they saw the same geldings had forth as it had béene to pasture, made no further businesse. Wherevpon doctor Parker shortlie after, feining as if he went abroad to walke two miles off from the citie, at Crinkleford bridge found his horses readie as he had appointed, with his seruants, and mounting vp, tooke his iourneie to|wards Cambridge, with as much spéed as was pos|sible, escaping thither out of all danger, although by the waie they met with and saw diuerse of the re|bels plaieng their parts in their woonted outragious maner. Thus did doctor Parker escape the hands of the wicked rebels, who despising his wholesome ad|monitions, did afterwards by Gods iust iudgement proue his words to be most true.
