" a Hist. Rebellion, vol. Iii. P. 173, note. 156 This accomplished deceiver, whose after-actions were very remarkable, was the son of George the first baron Goring, who was a few years after, in consideration of his services to the royal cause, advanced to the dignity of earl of Norwich, when his more noted son became lord Goring. Whether the family were catholic does not appear, but the younger Goring, who after the ruin of the royal cause entered into the service of the king of Spain, is said... to have assumed the Dominican habit in that country*. With respect to the other participators in these machinations, O'Neal, who was deepest in the design of bringing up the army, being threatened with a capital prosecution, made his escape but afterwards surrendered. Wilmot, Ashburnham and Pollard, all members of the house, and Davenant the poet, who was detected in the endeavour to quit the kingdom, being judged less guilty, were, after short terms of imprisonment, admitted to bail. The plot had ap- parently been sufficiently serviceable to the cause of the parliament to incline its chiefs to lenity.
