Notes

These payments may be associated with the earlier payment to the King's Bearward in the 1516--17 accounts, rather than for a separate performance. Payment for wine is followed by a cancelled payment of 8 d. 'to him that went with the dancing bear', but it is unclear if this refers to the King's Bearward
