"L&M: In 1665 Pembroke had tolsd the King that the end of the world would come that year, and bade hin prepare for it. Whereupon the King had offered him seven years' purchase of his manor of Wilton, but Pembroke replied 'No and please your Majesty it shall die with me': HMC Rawdon Hastings, ii. 120-1."
A small correction: the citation to HMC Rawdon Hastings, ii. should be 150-151, not 120-121.
