To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" About eight o'clock in the evening orders came from the Commissioners to the Sheriffs' men, who watched the body, to bury it, two of which took up the body on a halberd, and so carried it into the churchyard of Allhallows Barking, where they dug a grave with the halberds, on the north side of it, and without any reverence tumbled the body into it flat on its belly. " Not long afterwards, however, the body was removed and laid beside that of More in the chapel of the Tower. Another illustrious... victim was the unfortunate Earl of Surrey " the first of the English nobility who did illustrate his birth with the beauty of learning, " who was beheaded on Tower hill and buried at All- hallows Barking, on January 21, 1547. His remains were removed to the family vault at Framlingham, Suif oik, in 1614. Machyn enters in his Diary a similar execution and burial in the case of Lord Thomas Grey, April 28, 1554, an uncle of Lady Jane ; and of Henry Peckham and John Daniel in 1556. These traitors' graves are not now known, but of other graves made in the church during this period there are memorials of the deepest and most varied interest.
