THe next day after he return'd againe Unto the place whereas the corps lay slaine And also dig'd the ground up with a spade Wherein a Fox before his hole had made. And then he hid her body in the ground Where almost sixe weekes time it lay unfound Then after that he seem'd to pine and mone Like one that knew not where his love was gone. Till early in the morne one Sabbath day, Two seeking of their sheepe did passe that way And drawing nigh their dogges found out the place Which with their feet scratcht up the ground apace Surely sayd one the dogges hath something found Therefore let's see why they scratch up the ground Which when they came they did perceive some haire That by the dogges with scraping was layd bare. Perceiving that, they put the mould aside, Where presently a womans face they spy'd. Which when they see unto the [c]hurch they came For to acquaint the people with [the] same. The murderer himselfe being prese[nt] there When he among'st them did such rumors heare His guilty conscience than began to doubt That all his former villany would out. Now in the afternoone he did not goe Unto the Church his minde was troubled so, Who being then upon suspition taine To be the man that had the woman slaine. Yet when he was examin'd: ne're the lesse Twas long or they could make him to confesse Till such time as the Justice did him tell [?] felt by's pulses all things was not well.
And then indeede he presently begun For to confesse that he the same had done And told what promises he often made To marry her which thus he hath betrayd. For which he was to prison sent with speede, Till he had answered for this bloody deede And being there by Judgement Justly cast At Winchester he suffred death at last. Whereat his last confession he did say How he had thought to've borne her thence away But all in vaine for after she was dead Her body was more ponderous than lead. Then dragging her away with all his powre Hoping the Foxes would her corps devoure, Therefore within a Foxhole her he layd And threw some earth upon her with his spayd. But yet the Lord in Justice did forbid And suffred not this murder to be hid For in his sleepe by night he was opprest Till she was found and he the deede confest. And then this William Annall call'd by name Confest at's death it was to hide their shame Having her body many times defil'd That she perceiv'd herselfe to be with child. Then she Alice Vinson being called so With gentile speech oft to him would goe Saying deare love I prethee marry me, Yes so I will but not as yet quoth he. Thus did he put her off from time to time Till he had acted this accursed crime And thus instead of making her his wife He cut her thoate for which he lost his life.
