    [BOTES]: Heigh my hearts, cheerely, cheerely my harts:
    yare, yare: Take in the toppe-sale: Tend to th'Masters
    whistle: Blow till thou burst thy winde, if roome enough.

    Alon. Good [BOTESW]aine haue care:
    where's the Master? Play the men.

    [BOTES]: I pray now keepe below.

    Anth. Where is *the MASTER*, Boson?

    [BOTES]: Do you not heare him? you marre our labour,
    Keepe your Cabines: you do assist the storme.

    Gonz. Nay, good be patient.

    [BOTES]: When the Sea is: hence, what cares these
    roarers for the name of King? to Cabine;
    silence: trouble vs not.

    Gon. Good, yet remember whom thou hast aboord.

    [BOTES]: None that I more loue then my selfe. You are
    a Counsellor, if you can command these Elements to si-
    lence, and worke the peace of the present, wee will not
    hand a rope more, vse your authoritie: If you cannot,
    giue thankes you haue liu'd so long, and make your
    selfe readie in your Cabine for the mischance of the
    houre, if it so hap. Cheerely good hearts: out of our
    way I say. Exit.

    Enter [BOTESW]aine.

    [BOTES]: Downe with the top-Mast: yare, lower, lower,
    bring her to Try with Maine-course. A plague ---
    A cry within. Enter Sebastian, Anthonio & Gonzalo.
    vpon this howling: they are lowder then the weather,
    or our office: yet againe? What do you heere? Shal
    we giue ore and drowne, haue you a minde to sinke?
    Sebas. A poxe o'your throat, you bawling, blasphe-
    mous incharitable Dog.

    [BOTES]: Worke you then.

    Anth. Hang cur, hang, you whoreson insolent Noyse-
    maker, we are lesse afraid to be drownde, then thou art.

    Gonz. I'le warrant him for drowning, though the
    Ship were no stronger then a Nutt-shell,
    and as leaky as an vnstanched wench.

    [BOTES]: Lay her a hold, a hold, set her
    two courses off to Sea againe, lay her off.

    Enter Mariners wet.

    Mari. All lost, to prayers, to prayers, all lost.

    the celebrated Inigo Jones, Grand Master of all England, in which
    capacity he served for eleven years. His Wardens were the Earl of

    Brothers attired in Craft clothing, walked to White Hall, and laid
    the first {STONE} of the Banquetting Hall, with knocks, huzzas,
    and sound of trumpets, throwing a purse of gold upon the {STONE}
    for the operatives to drink “To the King and Craft!"

    <<The Tower of London has been a home for many prisoners during its
    long history. A grim and foreboding place like this seems to be an
    unlikely home for two cats to set up home. But during the Tudor and
    Elizabethan eras, a cat gave loyal comfort to one of those unfortunates incarcerated there. During the bitter struggle between the Yorkest and Lancastrians in the War of the Roses, Sir Henry Wyatt was taken
    prisoner by King Richard III, in 1483, and sent to the tower. This was
    quite a difference in life for him, as he had once been the Governor of
    the Tower, and now he had a rather different view on life in the tower.
    Being a well known cat lover living in Allington Castle it was said of
    him that he *EVER used to make much of a cat* . Stories say that while
    in the Tower he was visited by a stray cat which made its way to his
    cell through a chimney. The cat often used to leave the cell and come
    back with *PIGEONS* which it gave to Wyatt. It is said these were
    cooked for him by a friendly gaoler and made up for the meagre rations
    that were fed to the prisoners. It was surmised that when he was first incarcerated he would become succumb to illness & starvation, but the
    gifts of food that the cat brought kept him alive until he was later
    released. Later Sir Henry had a memorial built to his cat friend in
    a church at Boxley in Kent. He also remembered him in a painting of
    him in 1532. Several years later, in 1601, when the reign of Queen
    Elizabeth was nearing its end, Henry Wriothesley, the third Earl of Southampton, was incarcerated in the Tower of London for supporting
    The Earl of Essex's rebellion. During his stay there he was joined by
    his favourite cat, a black & white female called *TRIXIE* . The Earl
    being a nobleman, had two houses, a country mansion in Gloucestershire
    & Southampton House in London. One story says the cat made its own way
    across London from Southampton House, scaled the walls & clambered
    across the roofs until it found the chimney of his cell and climbed
    down to join the Earl. We know that the cat kept Wriothesley company
    because many years later after the event, the tale was put into
    writing by Thomas PENNANT an antiquarian. The cat was also included in
    a portrait commissioned by Wriothesley around 1603, & painted by John
    de Critz the Elder. Trixie is shown as a black cat with white markings
    to her face, a snowy white bib, and white forepaws, sitting by the
    right arm of the Earl with a quizzical look upon her face. Trixie
    kept her master company in the tower for about two years.>> .........................................................
