private or ecclesiastical charity, and all except the great highways

were likely to be but indifferently kept. Langland, in his _Piers

Plowman_, mentions the amending of 'wikked wayes' (by which he means not

bad habits but bad roads) as one of those works of charity which rich

merchants must do for the salvation of their souls. Thomas Paycocke's

choice of roads no doubt reflects many a wearisome journey, from which

he returned home splashed and testy, to the ministrations of 'John

Reyner my man' or 'Henry Briggs my servant', and of Margaret, looking

anxiously from her oriel window for his return. In his own town he

leaves no less than forty pounds, of which twenty pounds was to go to

amend a section of West Street (where his house stood), and the other

twenty was 'to be layde on the fowle wayes bitwene Coxhall and

Blackwater where as moost nede ys'; he had doubtless experienced the

evils of this road on his way to the abbey. Farther afield, he leaves

twenty pounds for the 'fowle way' between Clare and Ovington, and

another twenty for the road between Ovington and Beauchamp St Pauls.

As his life drew to its close he doubtless rode less often afield. The

days would pass peacefully for him; his business flourished and he was

everywhere loved and respected. He took pride in his lovely house,

adding bit by bit to its beauties. In the cool of the evening he must

often have stood outside the garden room and seen the monks from the big

abbey fishing in their stewpond across the field, or lifted his eyes to

where the last rays of sun slanted on to the lichened roof of the great

tithebarn, and on to the rows of tenants, carrying their sheaves of corn

along the road; and he reflected, perhaps, that John Mann and Thomas

Spooner, his own tenants, were good, steady friends, and that it was

well to leave them a gown or a pound when he died. Often also, in his

Page 84: Medieval People- Eileen Edna Power

8/8/2019 Medieval People- Eileen Edna Power

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/medieval-people-eileen-edna-power 84/114

last year or two, he must have sat with his wife in his garden with the

dove-house and watched the white pigeons circling round the apple-trees,

and smiled upon her bed of flowers. And in winter evenings sometimes he

would take his furred cloak and stroll to the Dragon Inn, and Edward

Aylward, mine host, would welcome him with bows; and so he would sit and

drink a tankard of sack with his neighbours, very slow and dignified, as

befitted the greatest clothier of the town, and looking benevolently

upon the company. But at times he would frown, if he saw a truant monk

from the abbey stolen out for a drink in spite of all the prohibitions

of bishop and abbot, shaking his head, perhaps, and complaining that

religion was not what it had been in the good old days; but not meaning

much of it, as his will shows, and never dreaming that twenty years

after his death abbot and monks gain stimulate the human

mind.'--Quoted from Petrarch's _Lettere Senili_ in Oliphant, _Makers of

Venice_ (1905), p. 349; the whole of this charming chapter, 'The Guest

of Venice', should be read. Another famous description of Venice occurs

in a letter written by Pietro Aretino, a guest of Venice during the

years 1527 to 1533, to Titian, quoted in E. Hutton, _Pietro Aretino, the

Scourge of Princes_ (1922), pp. 136-7; compare also his description of

the view from his window on another oioress in the Prologue to the

_Canterbury Tales_.

2. Miscellaneous visitation reports in episcopal registers. On these

registers, and in particular the visitation documents therein, see R.C.

Fowler, _Episcopal Registers of England and Wales_ (S.P.C.K. Helps for

Students of History, No. 1), G.G. Coulton, _The Interpretation of

Visitation Documents_ (Eng. Hist. Review, 1914), and c. XII of my book,

cited below. A great many registers have been, or are being, published

Page 85: Medieval People- Eileen Edna Power

8/8/2019 Medieval People- Eileen Edna Power

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/medieval-people-eileen-edna-power 85/114

by learned societies, notably by the Canterbury and York Society, which

exists for this purpose. The most important are the Lincoln visitations,

now in the course of publication, by Dr A. Hamilton Thompson,

_Visitations of Religious Houses in the Diocese of Lincoln_, ed. A.

Hamilton Thompson (Lincoln Rec. Soc. and Canterbury and York Soc., 1915

ff.); two volumes have appeared so far, of which see especially vol. II,

which contains part of Bishop Alnwick's visitations (1436-49); each

volume contains text, translation, and an admirable introduction. See

also the extracts from Winchester visitations trans. in H.G.D. Liveing,

_Records of Romsey Abbey_ (1912). Full extracts from visitation reports

and injunctions are given under the accounts of religious houses in the

different volumes of the Victoria County Histories (cited as V.C.H.).

3. The monastic rules. See _The Rule of St Benedict_, ed. F.A. Gasquet

(Kings Classics, 1909), and F.A. Gasquet, _English Monastic Life_ (4th

ed., 1910).

4. For a very full study of the whole subject of English convent life at

this period see Eileen Power, _Medieval English Nunneries c. 1275 to

1535_(1922).

_B. Notes to the Text_

1. _The Register of Walter de Stapeldon, Bishop of Exeter_ (1307-26),

ed. F. Hingeston Randolph (1892), p. 169. The passage about Philippa is

translated in G.G. Coulton, _Chaucer and His England_ (1908), p. 181.

2. See the account of expenses involved in 483, ed. C.L. Kingsford (Royal

Hist. Soc., Camden, 3rd Series), 2 vols., 1919. The Betson

correspondence is in vol. II.

2. _The Cely Papers, selected from the Correspondence and Memoranda of

the Cely Family, Merchants of the Staple_, 1475-88, ed. H.E. Malden

(Royal Hist. Soc., Camden 3rd series), 1900.

I am much beholden to the excellent introductions to these two books,

which are models of what editorial introductions should be.

3. The best introduction to the history of the Company of the Staple is

to be found in Mr Malden's aforesaid introduction to _The Cely Papers_,

which also contains a masterly account of the political relations of

England, France and Burgundy during the period. I have constantly relied

upon Mr Malden's account of the working of the Staple system. Other

useful short accounts of the wool trade and the Stapler's Company may be

found in the following works: Sir C.P. Lucas, _The Beginnings of English

Overseas Enterprise_ (1917), c. II; and A.L. Jenckes, _The Staple of

England_ (1908).

_B. Notes to the Text_

1. Four interesting contemporary illustrations of Parliament in 1523,

1585, some date during the seventeenth century, and 1742 respectively,

are reproduced in Professor A.F. Pollard's stimulating study of _The

Evolution of Parliament_ (1920).

2. _The Lybelle of Englyshe Polycye_, in _Political Poems and Songs_,

Page 87: Medieval People- Eileen Edna Power

ed. Thos. Wright (Rolls Ser., 1861), II, p. 162. This remarkable poem

was written in 1436 or 1437, in order to exhort the English 'to kepe the

see enviroun and namelye the narowe see' between Dover and Calais, since

in the author's opinion the basis of England's greatness lay in her

trade, for the preservation of which she needed the dominion of the

seas. Its chief value lies in the very complete picture which it gives

of English import and export trade with the various European countries.

There is a convenient edition of it in _The Principal Navigations

Voyages Traffiques and Discoveries of the English Nation by Richard

Hakluyt_ (Everyman's Lib. Edition, 1907), I, pp. 174-202.

3. G.W. Morris and L.S. Wood, _The Golden Fleece_ (1922), p. 17.

4. For accounts of these brasses see H. Druitt, _A Manual of Costume as

Illustrated by Monumental Brasses_ (1906), pp. 9, 201, 205, 207, 253.

John Fortey's brass and William Greville's brass are conveniently

reproduced in G.W. Morris and L.S. Wood, _op. cit_., pp. 28, 32,

together with several other illustrations, pertinent to the wool trade.

11. The brasses of his father 'John Lyndewode, woolman', and of his

brother, also 'John Lyndewode, woolman' (_d._ 1421), are still in

Linwood Church. They both have their feet on woolpacks, and on the son's

woolpack is his merchant's mark. See H. Druitt, _op. cit_., pp. 204-5.

12. See _Magna Vita S. Hugonis Episcopi Lincolniensis_, ed. J.F. Dimock

(Rolls Series, 1864), pp. 170-7.

13. For these extracts see a vastly entertaining book, _Child Marriages

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of

electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers

including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists

because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from

people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the

assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's

goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will

remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project

Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure

and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg

Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide

spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of

increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be

freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest

array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations

($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt

status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating

charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a

considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up

with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations

where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To

SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any

particular state visit http://pglaf.org

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we

have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition

against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who

approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make

any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from

outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation

methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other

ways including including checks, online payments and credit card

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic

works.

Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm

concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared

with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project

Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed

editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.

unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily

keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
