[722] Ibid.; Birch, i. 133 (Jan. 29), ‘The prince went on Saturday to Royston, called thither from his martial sports of tilt, tourney, and barrier, which he followed so earnestly, that he was every day five or six hours in armour. The rest of the time was spent in—— and every night a play, in all which exercises the Lord Cranbourne attended him, keeping an honourable table all the while they were at Greenwich, and grows daily into his favour.’ The plays of Jan. 12 and 13 were certainly and those of Jan. 15, 19, 21, almost certainly at Greenwich. An extant challenge to tilt of 1612 (Clephan, 133, 176, from Harl. MS. 4888) may be of this period.
