^{page 32 note 2} Greenham (d. 1594), a fellow of Pembroke Hall, Cambridge, was presented to the living of Dry Dray ton, Cambridgeshire, in late November 1570. Three years later he married the widow of Robert Bownde, a former physician to the duke of Norfolk. During the years that lay between 1573, when he was cited for refusing to wear the surplice, and 1591, Greenham developed a reputation both for preaching and for his ability to ‘comfort consciences’. His ideas went unpublished until after his death, but the students that attended his household seminary during these years certainly bore the impression of his contribution to Elizabethan Puritanism. Most of the details concerning Greenham's London years are mentioned in H. Gareth Owen's ‘Tradition and Reform; Ecclesiastical Controversy in an Elizabethan London Parish’, Guildhall Miscellany, ii (July 1961). The work of Richard Greenham is more fully discussed in the author's unpublished MS., ‘The Godly Society: Education, Discipline, and Morality in Elizabethan Puritanism’.

It would also seem likely that Greenham was fully aware of the educational principles advocated by Thomas Becon in his comprehensive New Catechism etc., London 1559–60. The usual catechism would have been bishop Ponet's, printed in The Two Liturgies set forth in the Reign of Edward VI, Parker Society, Cambridge 1844, 485–525Google Scholar. This was also the basis for Alexander Nowell's famous Elizabethan catechism.
