by Sanderson (q. v. ) and censured by Heylyn in Examen Historicum (1659)
as utterly libellous. See Lee, S. , art. Greville, Fulke (to whom the book

this work, which is hostile to James, Wilson's patron Essex had lent
him some of his father's and Southampton's papers. The basis of the
work is said to be Five Years of King James, 1643, by a puritan
partisan of Essex (possibly Wilson himself). The History was answered
by Sanderson (q. v. ) and censured by Heylyn in Examen Historicum (1659)
as utterly libellous. See Lee, S. , art. Greville, Fulke (to whom the book
was misattributed) in D. of N. B. vol. XXIII. As to Wilson, cf. Sec. VI, A.
