proceeded to the Earl of Exeter"s residence at Wimbledon, for the
purpose of having an interview with the Countess, and we then saw her in
the presence of Lord Roos and his servant Diego.'

Madame Bonaventure had already paid considerable sums to the two

extortioners, but she resisted their last application; in consequence of
which she received a monition from Sir Giles Mompesson, to the effect

'To enable me,' replied the imperturbable young nobleman, 'to draw out a
receipt in full of your joint claims against Madame Bonaventure. I have
done it, Sir Giles; and here it is. And I have taken care to grant a

penalties or fines can attach to her for neglect. Take it, Madame
Bonaventure' he continued, handing her the paper. 'It is your full
acquittance.'

preachers of the Word, been prosecuted in thy Court, misnamed of
justice, and known, O King! as the Star-Chamber; suffering stripes and
imprisonment for refusing to read thy mischievous proclamation to their
flocks.'
