Bonner Cutting – A Sufficient Warrant: Taking a Closer Look at Oxford’s 1,000 Pound Annuity
On June 26, 1586, Queen Elizabeth signed a Privy Seal Warrant in which she instructed her Exchequer to pay an annuity of 1,000 pounds annually to her “right trusty and well beloved Cousin the Earl of Oxford.” Surprisingly, this large monetary gift from the parsimonious Queen Elizabeth to her supposedly extravagant courtier has been largely ignored by historians. This document was commented upon only once in the 17th century and then forgotten until its publication in 1928 in Captain Bernard Ward’s biography of the seventeenth Earl of Oxford. The historical quiescence is odd given that this large annuity was to continue indefinitely, and the inclusion of a non-accountability clause made it all the more of an anomaly. The implications of the Queen’s Warrant have yet to be fully explored, and new documentation has been found that may contribute to our understanding of these payments from the Royal Exchequer to the Earl of Oxford.
A talk given at the 2016 Shakespeare Oxford Fellowship Conference in Boston.
