56 | <p><b>1549</b><p>In the meantime in England rose great stirs, likely to increase much
|
---|
57 | if it had not been well foreseen.&nbsp; The council, about nineteen of
|
---|
58 | them, were gathered in London, thinking to meet with the Lord Protector
|
---|
59 | and to make him amend some of his disorders.&nbsp; He, fearing his position,
|
---|
60 | caused the secretary in my name to be sent to the lords to know for what
|
---|
61 | cause they gathered their powers together and, if they meant to talk with
|
---|
62 | him, to say that they should come in a peaceable manner.&nbsp; The next
|
---|
63 | morning, being 6 October and Saturday, he commanded the armour to be brought
|
---|
64 | out of the armoury of Hampton Court, about 500 harnesses, to arm both his
|
---|
65 | and my men with it, the gates of the house to be fortified, and people
|
---|
66 | to be raised.&nbsp; People came abundantly to the house.&nbsp; That night
|
---|
67 | with all the people at nine or ten o'clock at night I went to Windsor,
|
---|
68 | and there watch and ward was kept every night.&nbsp; The lords sat in the
|
---|
69 | open places of London, calling gentlemen before them and declaring the
|
---|
70 | causes of accusing the lord protector, and caused the same to be proclaimed.
|
---|
71 | <p>After which time few came to Windsor, but only the men of my own guard
|
---|
72 | who the lords willed, fearing the rage of the people so lately quieted.&nbsp;
|
---|
73 | Then the protector began to treat by letters, sending Sir Philip Hoby,
|
---|
74 | lately come from his embassy in Flanders to see his family, who brought
|
---|
75 | on his return a very gentle letter to the protector which he delivered
|
---|
76 | to him, another to me, another to my household, to declare his faults,
|
---|
77 | ambition, vainglory, entering into rash wars in my youth, negligence about
|
---|
78 | Newhaven, enriching himself from my treasure, following his own opinions,
|
---|
79 | and doing all by his own authority etc., which letters were openly read,
|
---|
80 | and immediately the lords came to Windsor, took him and brought him through
|
---|
81 | Holborn to the Tower.&nbsp; Afterwards I came to Hampton Court where they
|
---|
82 | appointed by my consent six lords of the council to be attendant on me,
|
---|
83 | at least two, and four knights.&nbsp; Lords - the marquis of Northampton,
|
---|
84 | the earls of Warwick and Arundel, lords Russell, Sr John and Wentworth.&nbsp;
|
---|
85 | Knights - Sir Andrew Dudley, Sir Edward Rogers, Sir Thomas Darcy, Sir Thomas
|
---|
86 | Wroth.&nbsp; Afterwards I came through London to Westminster.&nbsp; Lord
|
---|
87 | Warwick was made admiral of England.&nbsp; Sir Thomas Cheney was sent to
|
---|
88 | the emperor for relief, which he could not obtain.&nbsp; Mr Nicholas Wootton
|
---|
89 | was made secretary.&nbsp; The lord protector, by his own agreement and
|
---|
90 | submission, lost his protectorship, treasureship, marshalship, all his
|
---|
91 | movables and nearly 2,000 pds of lands, by act of Parliament.<p>&nbsp;<hr>
|
---|
92 |
|
---|
93 | <p><b>1551</b><p>The lady Mary, my sister, came to me to Westminster, where after greetings
|
---|
94 | she was called with my council into a chamber where it was declared how
|
---|
95 | long I had suffered her mass, in hope of her reconciliation, and how now,
|
---|
96 | there being no hope as I saw by her letters, unless I saw some speedy amendment
|
---|
97 | I could not bear it.&nbsp; She answered that her soul was God's and her
|
---|
98 | faith she would not change, nor hide her opinion with dissembled doings.&nbsp;
|
---|
99 | It was said I did not constrain her faith but willed her only as a subject
|
---|
100 | to obey.&nbsp; And that her example might lead to too much inconvenience.
|
---|
101 | <p>On 19 March the emperor's ambassador came with a short message from
|
---|
102 | his master of threatened war, if I would not allow his cousin the princess
|
---|
103 | to use her mass.&nbsp; No answer was given to this at the time.
|
---|
104 | <p>The following day the bishops of Canterbury, London and Rochester, Thomas
|
---|
105 | Cranmer, Nicholas Ridley and John Scory, concluded that to give licence
|
---|
106 | to sin was sin; to allow and wink at it for a time might be born as long
|
---|
107 | as all possible haste was used.<p align="center">&nbsp;<p align="center"><a href="_httpextlink_&amp;rl=1&amp;href=http:%2f%2fenglishhistory.net%2ftudor%2fprimary.html">
