Archbishop. I do not doubt but it shall be better managed than it hath been by me: and yet, my Lord! I will tell you, that, for these many years that I have had the direction of that Court, the time is to come, that ever honest man did find fault that he had not there justice done.
Secretary. It is now Vacation time, and so consequently little to do; and by Michaelmas, His Majesty may set all in order.
Archbishop. I am sorry the King proceedeth thus with me, and letteth me not know the cause.
Secretary. Although I have no commission to tell you so. It is for a book which you would not allow, which concerned the King's service.
Archbishop. If that be it; when I am questioned for it, I doubt not but to give an honest answer.
Secretary. You will never be questioned for it!
Archbishop. Then am I the more hardly dealt withal; to be Censured, and not called to my answer.
Secretary. Well, my Lord! I will remember that of Foord: and will your Grace command me any more service?
Archbishop. No, my Lord! but GOD be with you! Only I end where I began, with the words of the Prophet, "He shall not be afraid for any evil tidings; for his heart standeth fast, and believeth in the LORD!"
