Talk:Everard Digby

The Gunpowder Plotters
I couldn't see Digby listed on the image of the plotters, so removed it. It may be appropriate for the related articles on the plot, but not it seems, this one. Alastairward (talk) 13:53, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Digby's trial
The article says at the top that Digby was tried on 27 January 1605, which is before the 5th November of the same year. Surely he was tried on 27 January 1606? I will change this as the article later describes the trial in 1606. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.207.80.194 (talk) 10:00, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Inscription in Tower of London
I just wanted to inform that there is a picture on Wikimedia Commons of the inscription Digby left in the Tower of London: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DigbyInscription.jpg. It might be useful for this article. --94.140.45.210 (talk) 09:32, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Poem
The poem mentioned in this article only contains the first strophe out of three, which might be worth mentioning. The other two strophes can be found on page 291 in Thomas Longueville's The Life of a Conspirator; Being a Biography of Sir Everard Digby by One of his Descendants:
 * Come in, my Lord, whose presence most I crave, And shew Thy will unto my longing mind ; From punishments of sin Thy servant save, Though he hath been to Thy deserts unkind. Jesu forgive, and strengthen so my mind, That rooted virtues thou in me maist find.
 * Stay still, my Lord, else will they fade away, As Marigold that mourns for absent Sun : Thou know'st thou plantest in a barren clay, That choaks in Winter all that up is come ; I do not fear thy Summers wished for heat, My tears shall water where thy shine doth threat. --94.140.45.210 (talk) 13:54, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

White money
In the Surrender section, there is a reference to 50 pounds in "white money" which is wikilinked to argent. That article deals just with a term in heraldry (a colour), even though White money redirects to it also. What is white money: just real silver, or any silver-looking coin, or any non-gold coin? And is there a better article to link to in order to explain the term? Jmchutchinson (talk) 16:30, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
