My father hath heard disquieting rumours of late, and the name of Robert Catesby is mingled in all of them.

However, he speaks little to me of matters of state.

Men in high places are for ever hearing whispers and rumours, and it boots not to give over-much credence to every idle tale.

Only, what thou spakest of this Catesby recalled the matter to my mind.

He is a man to fear, to avoid.
