	Resources for schools: Poetry bank: Tichborne's Elegy
		Chidiock and his father were both caught up in this sort of surveillance in 1583, and it is perhaps this experience which contributed to their involvement in the Babington Plot to assassinate the queen and replace her with the Catholic Mary Queen of Scots, who was next in line to the throne.
		A double agent foiled the plot, and although most of the conspirators escaped, Tichborne, who stayed in London due to an injury, was caught and sentenced to death on 14 August.
		Tichborne was someone who committed treason against the Queen of England, and sought to assassinate her.

	[minstrels] On the Eve of His Execution -- Chidiock Tichborne
		In 1583, Chidiock and his father were questioned concerning the possession and use of certain "popish relics"; somewhat later they were further implicated as to their "sacrilegious and subversive practices".
		From: "Dafydd Evans" Chidiock Tichborne, born in Hampshire in 1558, was a member of a junior branch of the old Tichborne family of Tichborne, Hampshire.
		Though the Tichbornes were fervent royalists, ironically one Tichborne was a regicide, ie one of the signatories to the death warrant of Charles I. I noted that a Canadian composer set the poem to music as 'Anthem: The Passing of the Claimant'.

	Chidiock_Tichborne - Thagodz Wiki
		Chidiock (Charles) Tichborne (1558–September 20, 1586) is remembered as an English conspirator and poet.
		They were disembowelled while still alive on specially erected gallows in St Giles Field, London as a warning to other would-be conspirators; however, when the Queen heard reports of these particularly gruesome executions, she gave orders that the remaining seven conspirators were to be allowed to hang until dead before being disembowelled.
		Tichborne's Elegy uses two favourite Renaissance figures of speech - antithesis and paradox - to crystallize the tragedy of the poet's situation.

	The Leeds Review - Issue #1 - Tichborne's Elegy: the text, notes, and further material
		First, Tichborne was indeed executed, for plotting, with a small group of men, to murder Queen Elizabeth I; the attempt came to be known as the Babington plot, after the leader Anthony Babington (1561-1586).
		Second, the poem is commonly held to be the only work by Tichborne; this would be even more remarkable than the truth: two poems are known to be by him, though they are not of the same quality or tone as the Elegy.
		The first is the published version of a letter Tichborne wrote to his wife about the time the poem was composed.

		He was disembowelled while still alive on the gallows at Tower Hill as a warning to other would-be conspirators; however when the Queen heard of this she was so disgusted she forbade this practice from ever taking place again.

	The Same in English (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The men behind the plot were thwarted and sentenced to death.
		One of them was the young Chidiock Tichborne, who, while in the Tower awaiting his death, penned his famous poem, "Tichborne's Elegy." Later in 1586, after the executions, John Wolfe published Verses of Praise and Joy.
		The last page of the book is dedicated to a six-line Latin poem entitled, "Ad Serenissiman Reginam Elizabetham, Apostrophe" (An Apostrophe to the Most Serene Queen Elizabeth) followed by its English translation, the poem edited here, called "The Same in English." Both original and translation are anonymous.

		Needless to say, the plots failed, thanks to Sir Francis Walsingham, and the plotters were arrested, tried and executed and there the matter should have lain except for the unusual beauty of this poem, sent to his wife by Tichborne.
		In light of the method of Tichborne's execution (hanged, taken down and disembowled while still alive; lacking only "quartering" to complete the ancient punishment for treason) one cannot think but that the two halves were never intended by the composer to be sung together, still....
