Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Church Historians of England, Vol. 7: Reformation Period, the Acts and Monuments of John Foxe Through the procurement and instance of these his adversaries, joining and confederating together, one Hugh Rawlins priest, and Thomas Lee, brother-in-law to the said George Constantine, did exhibit to the king´s most honourable council certain articles and informations, conceived and devised by the persons before named, to the intent to blemish the bishop´s credit, and utterly (as they thought and made their boast) to pull him from his bishopric, and to bring him in a præmunire. The copy of which articles we thought here good to express, and so after them to set his answers to the same. Articles and Informations to the King´s Honourable Council, put up and exhibited by Hugh Rawlins and Thomas Lee, against the blessed man of God, Master Ferrar, Bishop of St. David´s. Abuse of the Authority to him committed. Imprimis, When the said bishop first came to his diocese, he appointed his chancellor by his letters of commission, omitting the king´s majesty´s style and authority, and grounding his said commission upon foreign usurped laws and authority; by force of which authority his said chancellor did visit certain deaneries of his said diocese, and monished the chanter and chapter of the cathedral church of St. David´s aforesaid, against a certain day and place, for like intent and purpose, contrary to the king´s highness´s laws and statutes, and in derogation of his highness´s supremacy. II. Item, That the said chanter and chapter, perceiving the faults of the said commission, took the same from the registry into their custody, refusing to appear by virtue thereof, and, by secret and charitable ways and means, did admonish the said bishop of the unlawfulness and faults of the said commission, and of the danger that he had incurred for granting and executing the same; opening also unto him the effect of the statute made in the twenty-eighth year of our late sovereign lord Henry the Eighth. Which monitions notwithstanding, the said bishop neglecting the same, and continuing in his malicious doing or inexcusable ignorance, about the 20th day of August, in the fourth year of the reign of our sovereign lord that now is, did confer unto one John Evans the vicarage of Pen Brynn, instituting him by authority of the old foreign usurped law, making no mention of the kings highness´s authority, in contempt and derogation of the same. III. Item, Whereas the chancellor and vicar-general to the said bishop, did, upon a lawful title, and by the king´s highness´s supreme authority, admit and institute one John Gough into the rectory of Haysguard with the appurtenances, and gave out in the kings name under his highnesss seal ecclesiastical appointed for that office, with the "teste" of the said bishop, and subscription of the said chancellor, a mandate to induct accordingly; by virtue whereof the said John Gough was inducted by the official there, into the real possession of the same rectory, with the rights and appurtenances to the same belonging; whereupon the registrar of the said diocese, at the request of the foresaid chancellor, did signify the premises, with all the circumstances, before divers persons to the forenamed bishop: who, notwithstanding, did institute and cause to be inducted one Harry Goddard unto the same parsonage, making no mention of the king´s majesty´s authority or supremacy; in contempt and derogation of the same his highness´s crown and dignity, and in extolling the foreign usurped authority, contrary to the form of the statute, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
