    This Matthye or Mathew Draper was married to Sence Blackwell, daughter of William Blackwell, Esq., town clerk of London; and it is remarkable that we find them going through the wedding ceremony twice. This evidently arose from the religious changes in the first year of the reign of Elizabeth. Machyn describes the earlier ceremony: it took place on the 30th May, 1559, in the parish of St. Andrew in the Wardrobe, where they were married in Latin and with mass; "and after mass they had a bride-cup, and cakes, and hypocras, and muscadell, plenty to everybody." The company then went unto Master Blackwell's place to breakfast, and after that there was a great dinner. A fortnight later, the marriage of Matthew Draper and Sence Blackwell is entered in the register of Camberwell, where we may presume it was re-solemnized, more quietly, with Protestant rites."
