Reading edition
Nichols, Eliz. i. 115, 280; Athenaeum (1903), i. 220; 3 Library, ix. 252; Collier, i. 185. A reference to the Master of 'Revels' in Hatfield MSS. i. 551 is a mistake for 'Rolls'. Benger was son of Robert Benger or Berenger of Marlborough (Harl. Soc. Visitations, lviii. 10), was knighted 2 Oct. 1553 (Machyn, 335), and was auditor to Elizabeth as princess (Hearne, John of Glastonbury, 519). Further personal notes are in Stopes, Hunnis, 104, 311.
