Excerpt from The Lives of the Kings, Henry VIII, Vol. 1 Chronicler's own material. 'for as much as a dead man is the author thereof, ' says he, with laudable candour, 'i thought it my duty to suffer his work to be his own, and therefore have altered nothing therein.' And so well has Grafton performed his humble o¿ice, that we may detect Hall's hand as easily in the last years of Henry's reign as in the first. There is still the same love of pageants, the same obedience to the royal will, the same ardent protestant ism in the pages finished by Grafton, as in those which came fresh from the hand of Hall, and we may acknowledge that for once the editor has not betrayed his trust.
