520 |a A Thomas Bentley compiled and wrote The Monuments of Matrones which the well-known printer Henry Denham published in 1582.This massive work-over 1,500 pages-was the first comprehensive prayer book for women, a major devotional publication of Elizabethan England, containing prayers, biblical extracts, biographies of Old and New Testament women, and writings by Reformation queens, including Elizabeth. Title pages and some prayers have been studied by modern scholars, but nothing was known of the author beyond his self-identification as a student of Gray's Inn. We believe that the churchwarden of St. Andrew Holborn, compiler of the church records, is the same Thomas Bentley as the author of The Monument. This Thomas Bentley had been at Gray's Inn, St. Andrew was the Gray's Inn church, but especially notable is that the initials inserted into family prayers in The Monument were those of his family.
