LXV. Bishop Ridley offering to Preach before the Lady Mary (afterward Queen Mary) and receiving a re∣pulse, was brought by Sir Thomas Wharton, her Servant into the Dining Room, and desired to drink, which when he had done, he paused a while, looking very sadly, and suddenly broke forth into these words; Surely I have done amiss; why so? quoth the Knight; because I have drank (saith he) in that place where Gods Word being offe∣red, hath been refused; whereas if I had remembred my duty, I should have departed immediately, and shaken off the dust from my Shoes for a testmony against this House. These words were by this Bishop spoken with so much zeal and fervency, that some of the hearers afterward affir∣med that the Hair on their Heads stood upright at them. Clarks Examp. 2 Vol. p. 762.
