Q. "Under whose command didst thou serve in the army?"
A. "First under him they call Lord Fairfax."
Q. "Who then?"

Q. "What wentest thou for to Exeter?"
A. "I went to Launceston to see the Brethren."
Q. "What estate hast thou?"
A. "Take no care for that."
Q. "Wherefore camest thou in such an unusual posture as two women leading thy horse; others saying, 'Holy, holy, holy!' &c., with another before thee bareheaded, knee-deep in the highway mud, when thou mightest have gone on the causey; and at such a time that, it raining, thy companions received the rain at their necks, and vented it at their hose and breeches?"
A. "It tended to my Father's praise and glory; and I ought not to slight anything which the Spirit of the Lord moves."
