Excerpt from History of London, Vol. 2 of 2 Thorney, according to a well qualified authority, ' was 470 yards long and 370 broad, and was washed by the Thames on the east; by a rivulet which ran down College Street on the south by a streamlet which crossed King Street on the north; and by a moat called the Long Ditch, which united the two streams and ran along the line of Prince's and Delahay Streets. Stone walls de fended the whole precinct, pierced by handsome gates, one of which was in King Street, one near New Palace Yard, one opening on Tothill Street,1 and one in College Street where stood the abbey mill. Bridges crossed the brooks, and are said to exist still, but far beneath the present streets, for Thorney has been raised about nine feet, on the average, above its ancient level.

Excerpt from London, Vol. 2 of 2: Historical and Social High appreciation of the services of nobles and churchmen, for it showed itself also in his treatment of the city magnates.

Excerpt from The Tower of London, Vol. 2 of 2 Owing to the plague then raging in London, the customary procession at the coronation was omitted, although the King rode in state from the Tower to Westminster, preparatory to the Opening of his first Parliament on 1sth Of March 1605, as the Londoners had made their welcome for him ready. In Mr Sidney Lee's Life of Shakespeare, he states that Shakespeare, with eight other players of the King's company of actors, walked from the Tower of London to Westminster in the procession which accompanied the King in his formal entry into London. Each actor received four and a half yards of scarlet cloth to wear as a cloak on the occasion, and in the document authorising the grant, Shakespeare's name stands first on the list. This is the only time that we can positively know that Shakespeare was ever at the Tower; but his frequent introduction Of the fortress into his historical dramas makes it certain that he must often have visited a place so full of dramatic episodes and historical memories.
