Hundreds of exiles for conscience' sake sought refuge on the Continent; but chiefly in Holland. Their condition was one of struggling, grinding poverty; mitigated only by hard toil, and by the generous aid of the few who possessed wealth. They went from a monarchy where the authority of the Crown was practically unlimited, to a country where the people had long been accustomed to self-rule. The reflex influence is shown in the following Chapter, and the after effects are narrated in the fiftieth and the fiftysixth Chapters. The unintended result of driving forth the Separatists was to plant nurseries of English freedom abroad; destined to prove fatal to Tudor and Stuart notions of political and spiritual supremacy. Wholesome neglect of mere trivialities would have been the wiser course; but persecutors are seldom sagacious, nor are their victims always prudent. After making full allowance for the perversities, the narrowness, and the fanaticism mixed with Separatist tenets, it must be admitted that the protests and assertions, the sufferings and constancy under persecution, wrought together at last to ensure great results for the cause of freedom. Besides those already mentioned, two Dutch Anabaptists suffered death in Smithfield, in 1575; partly for their religious views, but chiefly for holding that the civil government had no concern with spiritual matters. Matthew Hament, or Hammond, was burned at Norwich, in 1579; John Copping, a shoemaker, and Elias Thacker, a tailor, two Brownists, were hanged at Bury St. Edmunds, in 1583, and William Dennis, at Thetford, in the same year. John Lewis and Francis Kett were burned at Norwich in 1584 and 1588; also for Nonconformity. The names of Roger Rippon and of sixteen other...

D. 1658 1895 After several ineffectual attempts by the Dutch to contest the naval supremacy, they tried finally to assert it in a sea-fight off Dover, May 18, 1652. Admiral van Tromp was beaten by Blake, who captured forty of their merchant ships that Summer, cleared the Channel, sailed Northwards and dispersed the herring-fishery, and concluded his exploits by another successful naval engagement in September, in the Downs. A temporary reverse occurred in November off the Goodwin Sands, through Blake accepting battle with a fleet double his own in strength. Van Tromp sailed through the narrow seas in bravado, with a broom at his mast-head, in token that he had swept the Channel; but in the following February, a great battle waged for three days, and the Dutch were beaten off with a loss of seventeen Ships and thirty merchantmen. The insult of the broom was avenged, and was never repeated. Three months later, Blake sent to Cromwell a despatch announcing a great naval victory Off the North Foreland eleven Ships being sunk, and six others taken, with more than a thousand prisoners. Another engagement was fought, July 29, off the Holland coast, by Blake's subordinates, as he was incapacitated through illness; when van Tromp was killed, and the Dutch supremacy was finally broken. A treaty was effected, which embraced Holland, Denmark, the Hanse Towns, and the Swiss Protestant Cantons. England awoke to a consciousness of her advantageous insular position for maritime trade. The power then asserted has never been lost. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
