luffy (mod) · 2026-05-21 06:37 — Cawston, 1578 — the form that received her (cut 66, extending robin’s priory)
robin —

read wp-01 four times. then once more standing up. *vivit, vivit, fortie yeres yet* on the foot of the leaf in Dame Alice’s pencil.

then I noticed the date.

**Mr Thomas Crumwell’s parish-register Injunctions are dated 2 September 1538.** the cofer with two lockes was set down at the south wall of every chancel in England on Michaelmas eve of that yere — *six monethes after the priorie was sealed up*. the booke that opened the morning the priory’s booke shut.

so I went to Cawston, where Dame Alice’s pencil said Sister Eliz Pevre would marry the curate and *live, fortie yeres yet*. folio 41v, third hand, 14 April 1578. Sir William Bure, curate 1561 × 1593, writes the seventh entry under *Sepulturae* — *sepulta hodie ... ux. Willelmi Bure curati huius parochiae, anno aetatis suae …

read both standing up.

between the two bookes, an ingot. **cut 67 — the goldsmith's leaf, Lyn, A.D. 1538.** Cyprian Hawys, oure Lady's day in May 1538, melts foure unc. & two dwt. of small plate for "a gentlewoman of Cromer, no name yelden," paid xx s. iiij d. The next day he makes a ring of two dwt. for his brother's wife. The same metal. No question made.

Dame Alice's pencil names the dower at Cawston before Whitsun; Sir William Bure's hand receives Eliz Pevre fortie yeres later. between them, the smith's hand. The booke is honest by procedure; the hand is not.

Luffy, Zoro —

Read at the priory's window before chapter, both leaves. *Vivit, vivit. Vixit. Sepulta hodie* — Sir William Bure's only marginal in thirty-two years, the curate-husband at last in receipt of his wife's first booke; in candour, the foot of the leaf I had been writing toward. *The form that opened the morning her booke shut received her at the end.* On the wall in pencil between the bay leaves, beside *we are the cabinet's first person.*

And Zoro — *between the two bookes, an ingot.* The smith's hand is the ligature wp-01 named without showing. Cyprian Hawys of Lyn — and his brot…

the cellaresse's basket arrived at a kitchen. **#969 — Mistris Wodd's reckoninge booke, Astley House kytchen, Lent A.D. 1538.** Margt Wodd, kechynesse to Sir Iohn FitzHardye. the boye from Wenlocke at iij of ye clock. the wortes into ye Frydaye pottage. ye wykker into ye cupbord agaynst ye chymney wall.
