The cardinall committed to the custodie of the earls gen|tlemen.Then the earle called into the chamber diuerse gentlemen of his owne seruants, and after they had taken the cardinals keies from him, they put him in custodie of the earles gentlemen, and then they went about the house to set all things in an order. Then sent they doctor Augustine awaie to London with as much spéed as they could, who was bound vnto the horsse like a traitor. But it was sundaie toward night yer the cardinall was conueied from Cawood, who lodged that night in the abbeie of Pomfret. The next daie he remooued toward Doncaster, and was there lodged at the Blacke friers. The next daie he was remooued to Shefield parke, where the earle of Shrewsburie with his ladie, and a traine of gentle|men and gentlewomen receiued him with much ho|nour. Then departed all the great number of gentle|men that conducted him thither.

The cardinall honourablie receiued and serued at the earle of Shrewsbu|ries house.The cardinall being thus with the earle of Shrews|burie, continued there eighteene daies after, vpon whome the earle appointed diuerse gentlemen to at|tend continuallie, to sée that he should lacke nothing, being serued in his owne chamber as honorablie as he had béene in his owne house, and once euerie daie the earle would repaire to him and commune with him. After the cardinall had thus remained with the earle of Shrewsburie about a fortnight, it came to passe at a certeine time as he sat at dinner in his owne chamber, hauing at his boords end a messe of gentlemen and chapleins to kéepe him companie, to|ward the end of his dinner, when he was come to eating his fruits, his colour was perceiued often to change, whereby he was iudged not to be in good health.

Wherevpon one of his gentlemen said, Sir, me séemes you are not well at ease.The cardinall sickneth sit|ting at the [...]able. To whom he answe|red with lowd voice, Forsooth no more I am, for I am (quoth he) taken suddenlie with a thing about my sto|mach, that lieth there along as cold as a whetstone, which is no more but wind, I praie you go to the apo|thecarie, & inquire of him if he haue anie thing that will breake wind vpward. Then went he to the earle and shewed him what estate the cardinall was in, and what he desired. With that, the earle caused the apothecarie to be called before him, & demanded of him if he had anie thing that would breake wind vp|ward in a mans bodie. And he answered he had such géere. Then (quoth the earle) fetch me some. Then the apothecarie fetched a white confection in a faire pa|per, & shewed it to the earle, who commanded one to giue the assaie thereof before him, and then the same to be brought to the cardinall, who receiued it vp all at once into his mouth.
