Tierces of wine, for the lading of, [99].
Tissue, pieces of, paid for, [6], [105].
Token a, sent from the King to Sir Francis Bryan, [125].
The word token, per se, evidently meant any thing sent as a mark of kindness. In this instance it was 50l. but it was more frequently a jewel or other article of value. Thus in the instance of Cardinal Wolsey, when Henry was informed by Dr. Butts that unless he sent him some testimony of his favour he would die within four days, "Even so will I, quoth the King, and therefore make speed to him again, and ye shall deliver him from me this ring for a token of our good will and favour towards him, in the which ring was engraved the King's visage within a ruby, as lively counterfeit as was possible to be devised."—"And then he spake to Mistress Anne [Boleyn] saying, 'Good sweetheart, I pray you at this my instance, as ye love us, to send the Cardinal a token with comfortable words, and in so doing ye shall do us a loving pleasure.' Incontinent, she took her tablet of gold hanging at her girdle, and delivered it to Master Buttes with very gentle and comfortable words," &c. Cavendish's Life of Wolsey, Ed. Singer, 1825, vol. i. p. 226. An engraving of this scene is given from a MS. in the possession of Mr. Douce in that interesting work.

Tomb, paid for the King's, [101].
This entry is rather extraordinary, because Henry VIII. expressly states in his will, dated on the 30th December, 1546, sixteen years afterwards, that his tomb was not then made. He orders that his body shall be buried in the choir of his College of Windsor, "mid-may between the Halls and the High Altar, and an honourable tomb for our bones to rest in be made, if it be not done by us in our life-time." But it is evident from the item in question that a tomb was began for him as early as December, 1530, towards the expences of which Cromwell was then paid 13l. 6s. 8d.
