Z.X.Z. _Cardinal Allen's Admonition_ (Vol. ii., p. 497.).--The _Declaration of the Sentence and Deposition of Elizabeth, the Usurper and pretended Queen of England_, will be found accurately reprinted in the Appendix to vol. iii. of Dodd's _Church History_, edited and enlarged by the Rev. M.A. Tierney, F.R.S., F.S.A., in whose possession a copy of the Declaration is stated to be. D. _Scandal against Queen Elizabeth_ (Vol. ii., p. 393.).--Although many of your correspondents must be well able to reply to P.T.'s Query, I have seen no notice of it as yet. The note to Burton's _Diary_, in citing Osborn, ought to have begun with the word which precedes the words quoted. The note would then have run thus:-- "That Queen Elizabeth had a son, &c., I neglect to insert, as fitter for a romance than to mingle with so much truth and integrity as I profess." In the Add. MSS. 5524. is an apparently modern note, stated to be in the handwriting of Mr. Ives, to the following effect:-- "I have heard it confidently asserted, that Queen Elizabeth was with child by the Earl of Essex, and that she was delivered of a child at Kenilworth Castle, which died soon after its birth, was interred at Kenilworth, and had a stone put over it, inscribed '_Silentium_.'" |
