Meanwhile the gentry too had been dying. It is clear that in theupper ranks the men died more frequently than the women, explain ithow you will. During June and July no fewer than fifteen patrons oflivings were widows, while in thirteen other benefices the patronagewas in the hands of the executors or trustees of gentlemen who haddied. During the month of July in scarcely a village within fivemiles of Norwich had the parson escaped the mortality, yet in Norwichthe intrepid Bishop remained in th...e very thick of it all, as if hewould defy the angel of death, or at least show an example of theloftiest courage. Only towards the end of July did he yield, perhaps, to the persuasion or entreaty of others, and moved away to thesouthern part of his diocese, taking up his residence at Hoxne, inSuffolk, where he stayed till October, when he once more returned tohis house at Thorpe by Norwich. The palace had become at lastabsolutely uninhabitable.
To Hoxne accordingly the newly-appointed clergy came in troops, andduring the first seven weeks after the Bishop's arrival he admittedno less than eighty-two parsons, a larger number than had been theaverage of a whole year heretofore.
