Excerpts

In the year of grace, 1586, on the last day of the month of May, to all who may chance to read this narrative, these;
I will first be at the pains of stating that had it not been for Marian I had never indited these or any other papers, true or false.
Page 1, added by Katharine Hadow.
And this morning, when she was seated, and the babe curled against her bosom, and Marian and myself thinking o' the pictures o' the Virgin Mary and the blessed Jesus (saving that my lady's kirtle was all of white and gold, like the lilies, knotted in her waistband), she looked up on a sudden and lo! there was the master coming along over the grass towards her. When he saw who it was that sat there, he doffed his plumed hat like as though it had been the Virgin Mary for very truth, and he paused a minute, but then came on.
Page 78-79, added by Katharine Hadow.

A fair representation of the overall literary style.
