Excerpt: ...will not yet suffer me."r Were it not for ' London, 2nd Jan. 1558-9.--Fland. Corr. St. P. Off. LETTER ON FINANCE. 257 such ephemeral causes, and Cecil's habit of preserving every written paper which he received, we should have been almost without any of Gresham's correspondence during his periods of residence in England. The following letter, which he addressed to Sir William Cecil in London on the 1st of March, 1558-9, is nearly the last of the kind with which the reader shall be troubled. It would not be right to omit a curious document from Gresham's pen, so illustrative of the financial arrangements of his day; though, for the reader's sake, I wish it could have been a little more entertaining.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Sir Thomas Gresham, Vol. 2 of 2: Compiled Chiefly From His Correspondence Preserved in Her Majesty's State-Paper Office; Including Notices of Many of His Contemporaries N ext, - and this was by far the most formidable of the evils with which Flanders was threatened, came the projected introduction of the Inquisition into that country. This odious project exasperated all classes, and aroused, as might be expected, the indignation of the populace to the last degree. They made up their minds that their enemy, the cardinal, was at the root of this grievance also; that he had proposed the measure to King Philip and that it was a scheme for making himself Inquisitor-general, while the twelve bishops were to become lnquisitors, each over his respective diocese. The ostensible motive for the intro duction of this system, was the same which had been assigned for the formation of the new bi shoprics, - namely, the security of the established Roman Catholic religion: but whereas the latter measure, however unpopular at first, proved in a short space so far palatable, that at the Council of Trent it encountered but little opposition, the affair-of the Inquisition was soon found to be altogether intolerable. It admitted of no compro mise, and became eventually the grand pretext for rebellion, and the immediate occasion of all the horrors of the civil War which ensued.
