47 given on 24 December 1545, was recorded by a member of Parliament.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=-1&gt;
48 These words bring Henry VIII's personality to life - at times belligerent,
49 then coaxing, mixing flattery and threats.&amp;nbsp; Unlike his descendants,
50 Henry had few problems with parliament; his domination of its members was
51 legendary.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;

55On 24 December the king's majesty came into the parliament
56house, to give his royal assent to such acts as had been passed there,
57where the speaker made to him an eloquent oration, to which it has always
58been the custom for the lord chancellor to answer, but at this time it
59was the king's pleasure that it should be otherwise, for the king himself
60answered, as follows word for word, as near as I was able to report it.
61&lt;p&gt;'Although my Chancellor for the time being has been used, before
62this time, very eloquently and substantially to answer such orations as
63have been set forth in this high court of parliament, yet he is not so
64able to open and set forth my mind and meaning and the secrets of my heart
65in so plain and ample manner as I myself can.&amp;nbsp; Wherefore, taking it
66upon myself to answer your eloquent oration, master speaker, I say that
67where you, in the name of our well beloved commons, have both praised and
68extolled me for the notable qualities which you have conceived to be in
69me, I most heartily thank you all that you have reminded me of my duty,
70which is to endeavor myself to obtain and get such excellent qualities
71and necessary virtues as a prince or governor should or ought to have,
72of which gifts I recognize myself both bare and barren.&amp;nbsp; But for such
73small qualities as God has endowed me with I render to his goodness my
74most humble thanks, intending with all my wit and diligence to get and
75acquire for myself such notable virtues and princely qualities as you have
76alleged to be incorporated in my person.&amp;nbsp; Having first remembered
77these thanks for your loving admonition and good counsel, I next thank
78you again because, considering our great charges (not for our pleasure
79but for your defense, not for our gain but to our great cost) which we
80have lately sustained, as well in defense against our and your enemies
81as for the conquest of that fortress which was to this realm most displeasant
82and noisome, and shall be by God's grace hereafter most profitable and
83pleasant to our nation, you have freely of your own decision granted to
84us a certain subsidy, specified here in an act, which truly we take in
85good part, regarding more your kindness than the profit thereof, as he
86that sets more by your loving hearts than by your substance.&amp;nbsp; Besides
87this hearty kindness I cannot a little rejoice when I consider the perfect
88trust and sure confidence which you have put in me, as men having undoubted
89hope and unfeigned belief in my good deeds and just proceedings for you,
90since without my desire or request you have committed to my order and disposition
91all chantries, colleges, hospitals and other places specified in a certain
92act, firmly trusting that I will order them to the glory of God and the
93profit of the commonwealth.&amp;nbsp; Surely if, contrary to your expectation,
94I should suffer the ministries of the church to decay, or learning (which
95is so great a jewel) to be diminished, a poor and miserable people to be
96unrelieved, you might say that I, being put in so special a trust as I
97am in this case, were no trusty friend to you, nor a charitable man to
98my fellow Christians, nor a lover of the public wealth, nor yet one who
99feared God, to whom account must be rendered of all our doings.&amp;nbsp; Doubt
100not, I pray you, that you expectations will be fulfilled more Godly or
101goodly than you will wish or desire, as you will plainly see afterwards. &lt;/p&gt;
102
103&lt;p&gt;'Now, since I find such kindness on your part towards me, I cannot choose
104but to love and favor you, affirming that no prince in the world more favors
105his subjects than I do you, and no subjects or commons more love and obey
106their sovereign lord than I see you do me, for whose defense my treasure
107shall not be hidden, nor if necessity requires it will my person be not
108risked.&amp;nbsp; But although I with you and you with me are in this perfect
109love and concord, this friendly amity cannot continue unless both you,
110my lords temporal, and you, my lords spiritual, and you, my loving subjects,
111study and take pains to amend one thing which is surely amiss and far out
112of order, which I most heartily require you to do, which is that charity
113and concord is not amongst you, but discord and dissension bears rule in
114every place.&amp;nbsp; St Paul wrote to the Corinthians, in the 12th chapter:
115'Charity is gentle, Charity is not envious, Charity is not proud,' and
116so on in that chapter.&amp;nbsp; Behold then what love and charity is amongst
117you when one calls another heretic and anabaptist and he calls him back
118papist, hypocrite, and pharisee.&amp;nbsp; Are these tokens of charity amongst
119you?&amp;nbsp; No, no, I assure you that this lack of charity amongst yourselves
120will be the hindrance and assuaging of the fervent love between us, as
121I said before, unless this is healed and clearly made whole.&amp;nbsp; I must
122judge the fault and occasion of this discord to be partly the negligence
123of you, the fathers and preachers of the spirituality.&amp;nbsp; For if I know
124a man who lives in adultery I must judge him to be a lecherous and carnal
125person; if I see a man boast and brag about himself I cannot but deem him
126a proud man.&amp;nbsp; I see and hear daily that you of the clergy preach against
127each other without charity or discretion.&amp;nbsp; Some are too stiff in their
128old 'Mumpsimus', others are are too busy and curious in their new 'Sumpsimus'.&amp;nbsp;
129Thus almost all men are in variety and discord, and few or none truly and
130sincerely preach the word of God as they ought to do.&amp;nbsp; Shall I now
131judge you to be charitable persons who do this?&amp;nbsp; No, no, I cannot
132do so.&amp;nbsp; Alas, how can the poor souls live in concord when you preachers
133sow amongst them in your sermons debate and discord?&amp;nbsp; They look to
134you for light and you bring them darkness.&amp;nbsp; Amend these crimes, I
135exhort you, and set forth God's word truly, both by true preaching and
136giving a good example, or else, I, whom God has appointed his vicar and
137high minister here, will see these divisions extinct, and these enormities
138corrected, according to my true duty, or else I am an unprofitable servant
139and an untrue officer'. ....
