Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler’s Guide to Elizabethan England. A miller’s daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack

of food. A beggar boy from the Scottish Borders is found writhing in agony in the road and dies soon afterward "in great misery.” Another "poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies. A widow is discovered dead in a barn. A four-year-old local boy dies "for want of food and means,” as does his mother. A total of sixty-two people die in Greystoke in just one year—during which time the parish sees no marriages and only three children conceived. You hear the story of a man leaving his home and walking hundreds of miles in search of work or food and returning after a couple of months with sufficient money only to find that his wife and children have all since died. Now you can see why so many people living in Kent in the 1590s walked there, as we have seen in Chapter Two. Which details give explicit examples of starvation during Elizabethan times? Check all that apply. A miller’s daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack of food. A beggar boy from the Scottish Borders is found writhing in agony in the road and dies soon afterward “in great misery.” Another “poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies.

A miller’s daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack of food.

Another “poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies.

A four-year-old local boy dies “for want of food and means,” as does his mother.

You hear the story of a man leaving his home and walking hundreds of miles in search of work or food and returning after a couple of months with sufficient money only to find that his wife and children have all since died.

These four are clear explicit examples of starvation during Elizabethian times, since England faced hard times during Elizabethian times, since the population grew larger by a third, and the resources stayed the same, they had to divide the same products between more people.
