[AI] This life of Ogilby is found confusedly in two drafts in MS. Aubr.
7, foll. 19ᵛ-20ᵛ, and MS. Aubr. 8, foll. 44-47ᵛ.
In MS. Aubr. 7, fol. 19ᵛ, and in MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 44, Aubrey gives
the coat: '..., a lion passant gardant crowned ..., a mullet for
difference'; and notes that 'the crest is a 1/2 virgin in an earle's
coronet holding a castle.'
[AJ] Gadbury, Aubrey thought, must have been told the place of Ogilby's
birth with a view to constructing his horoscope.
[AK] The first draft, in MS. Aubr. 7, fol. 20, runs:--
'His father was then a prisoner at the King's bench; by the advantage
of his son's industry, raysed a small some of money, which he
adventured in the lottery (in such a yeare ...--since 1600--quaere
annum) for the advancement of the plantation in Virginia: but he gott
out of prison by this meanes. His motto was
I am a poor prisoner, God wott:
God send me a good lott[460]
I'le come out of prison and pay all my debt.
