Friday, a meridie hora 4Yz. The golden veil or curtain appeared covering the whole Stone. At length appeared a woman like an old maid in a red petticoat, and with a red silk upper bodice, her hair rolled about like a Scottish woman, the same being yellow, and she said: 'I am going home, 1 have been from home this seven-night.' Ll: 'Distance of place cannot protract time in your journey homeward.' MAID: 'Jesu, now he will be angry with me, as he was with his maid.' Mary my maid had angered me on Thursday night, with her undue speech. Ll: 'We would gladly know YOut name.' MAID: 'My name is Galvah.' Ll: 'You will not be offended, if 1 propound a doubt somewhat impertinent to Out matter in hand, yet of importance for us to hear your judgement in the same. Tritemius sayeth that never any good angel was read of to have appeared in female form. 1 pray you to give us an answer to these so great a clerk his words, which are to be read in his little book, Octo Qut£stionum Maximiliani Ct£saris.'13 GALVAH: 'Angels neither are man nor woman. Therefore may those that are the eternal ministers of God in this proportion of sanctification take unto them the bodies of them both. 14 'Those also that are called filit£ and filit£ filiarum are all comprehended in me, and do attend upon true wisdom; which ifTritemius mark, he shall perceive that true wisdom is always painted with a woman's garment.' Ll: ~ concerning the Polandish Lord Albertus Laski, whom we are certified to be of God elected to govern him a people, whom we are willed to love and honour: what have you to say of him? &c.' GALVAH: 'Ask me these things tomorrow.' E.K.: 'She is gone with a brightness.'
