Her tutor Curio wrote of her: "I have heard her at Court declaiming in Latin, speaking Greek, and answering questions, as well as any of the females among the ancients could have done. Do not feel a doubt respecting the Sapphic Ode, written in Greek. It is indeed the work of a real Olympia, whom we have known from her infancy."

"Ex bibliothecâ Warclanensi, Comit. de Borch." Thomas More, the Chancellor's descendant, showed that many good men and learned divines were taken in by "this jolly invention of Sir Thomas More": "he doth most lively and pleasantly paint forth such an exquisite platform, pattern, and example of a singular good commonwealth, as to the same neither the Lacedæmonians, nor the Athenians, nor yet the best of all other, that of the Romans, is comparable; full prettily and probably devising the said country to be one of the countries of the new-found lands, declared to him in Antwerp by Hythlodius a Portingal, one of the sea-companions of Americus Vesputius, that first sought out and found those lands."
