Book The Reign of Elizabeth  Vol  3  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Reign of Elizabeth Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by James Anthony Froude and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reign of Elizabeth, Vol. 3 Twice already, during the progress of the Reformation, the advance of the new opinions had been checked by reaction. The Act of Supremacy and the dissolution of the monasteries had been followed by the fall of Cromwell, the Six Articles, and the burning of Barnes and Lambert. The anarchy, social and spiritual, which had broken loose under Edward VI., was brought to an end by the hard and heavy hand of Mary and Pole. From the moment that Elizabeth declared against the pope it was inevitable that, sooner or later, the Catholics would make a third effort to recover their ascendancy. In number they still exceeded the Reformers, although in energy and enthusiasm the Reformers had a corresponding advantage. The strength of the two parties, to outward appearance, was nearly equal, and neither one nor the other had become as yet accustomed to the practical working of the formulas of the establishment, where each might hold their own opinions under the show of uniformity. The statesman of the nineteenth century, with the conditions before him which presented themselves to the council of Elizabeth, - would have left religion to the individual conscience would have insisted only on general submission to the laws, and within that limit would have permitted Catholic and Protestant the free use of their own chapels and services. But this solution of the problem has been made possible only by a gradual change of sentiment. Before a government can act on principles of toleration, the people to be governed must have become themselves at least outwardly tolerant. The attempt was made in France without this necessary preparation, and the result was universal disorder, interminable outbursts, and civil war, and when circumstances were specially unfavourable, those monstrous massacres, which have made the reigns of Catherine de Medici and her sons so infamous in history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reign of Elizabeth, Vol. 2 This possibility and this alone created Mary's difficulties She knew what Philip's engagements meant; she knew that Spain desired as little as France to see England and Scotland a united and powerful kingdom; and that if Elizabeth could be recalled out of her evil ways by a Catholic alliance, the cabinet of Madrid would think no more of Damley or herself. She would have to exchange an immediate and splendid triumph for the doubtful prospect of the eventual succession should her rival die without a child.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reign of Elizabeth: By W. Llewellyn In a review of the state of England, written in the year 1585, Lord Burghley describes the Queen as for her own person inwardly loved by all that loved God, and professed true religion;' and the realm 'in outward shew by order of Justice, obedient, and disposed to peace.' The people, he said, 'were generally rich and able to endure all reasonable charges for the national defence;' and a 'great multitude, gentlemen, merchants, and vulgar people, especially in good towns where they were taught by discreet preachers, were very zealous towards God, and earnestly bent to all service for her Majesty's safety.' Protestantism, on the Continent, had brought with it war and misery. In England, the affinity between the more genuine creed and material prosperity, had opportunity to show itself.

For a time this policy was successful, and Cecil prided himself upon the skill with which he had practised, as the phrase was among courtiers. But as soon as her preparations were complete the Queen threw off the disguise. Proclaiming that the foundation of all her doings were laid upon honour and truth, which she esteems above all things, she formally intimated to the Queen Regent that unless She sent home the French tr00ps which were at that time garrisoned in Scotland, it would become the duty of England to expel them by force.
