 It was due to one of the Lisle's servants having travelled, secretly and without official permission, from Calais to Rome, to see the Pope supposedly in order to betray Calais to the French, that Lord Lisle was suspected of involvement in treason.This servant was a mischievous domestic chaplain named Gregory Botolf, like Honor of popish sympathy, nicknamed "Sir Gregory Sweet-Lips", who was said by evil rumour to be Honor's lover.Honor's daughter Mary Basset was in fact in receipt of love-letters from a young French aristocrat, Gabriel de Montmorency, Seigneur de Bours, who had proposed marriage to her, and these she disposed of in the cess-pit.
