Footnotes

1	i.e. June 24, 1525, to March 25, 1530. "xvj" mistake for "xvij," vide "Note on Dating."
2	They were not the first churchwardens, vide note, p. 13.
3	The second Mond: and Tuesday after Easter, vide p. 31. Monday was the women's collecting day; for the insignificant sums collected by the men. cf. pp. 26, 27, 37, 38.
4	Memorial service.
5	Alyn, apparently the parish clerk, and therefore by right of custom buried in the porch (vide n. 1, p. 8). His wife, and perhaps his family, shared this privilege.
6	Cardinal Wolsey.
7	i.e. in the Church.
8	Vide Strype's Stow, App. ii, p. 21. One of four hospitals for lepers, built temp: Ed. III. There were lazarhouses at St. James and St. Giles. That at St. James came to an end in 1531.
9	Clearly not a person of means—probably a clergyman.
10	cf. n. 1, p. 2 and p. 8.
11	cf. n. 1, p. 2.
12	Either the Easter fee which occurs later as 'token' money, or a collection towards the expenses of "the paschal Light," but the latter is probably what is here called the sepulchre light. Note also the difference between the "Pascall money" and the expenditure on "the pascall."
13	The Rood loft was across the chancel arch; on the centre was the Rood or crucifix flanked by figures or the Virgin and the Apostles. The figures faced west (vide n. 2, p. 162).
14	price.
15	a quarter of 100.
16	Rood light, i.e. lights on the Rood Loft.
17	All Saints' Day.
18	Coals, i.e. charcoal.
19	Note that only burials are mentioned.
20	Vide n. p. 40.
21	The cross-marked wafer used in the Mass.
22	From Good Friday night to Easter morning—a precaution against fire and sacrilege.
23	From this hallowed fire all the lights were kindled at Easter. For a time all lights were extinguished; then first the Great Paschal candle and second the perpetual lamp before the sacrament were lighted.
24	Perhaps some kind of pastille to be burned "to sweeten the Church."
25	A hallowed taper to stand by the font, cf. "the Light that lighteth every man into the world."
26	'Tenebrae' was an office for Wed: Thur: and Friday in Holy Week. During this service all lights were gradually extinguished. The last of the Tenebrae candles was taken behind the altar, and after a short space brought forward again alight, to typify Christ's Resurrection (vide Smith & Cheetham).
