Notes. This Couplet Lists the Men of Various Religious Persuasions Who Had Sped from London at the Death of Elizabeth I to Greet the New King in Scotland

B1 Nevil for the protestant, L Thomas for the papist Notes. This couplet lists the men of various religious persuasions who had sped from London at the death of Elizabeth I to greet the new King in Scotland. The diarist John Manningham, who transcribed the fragment in April 1603 after hearing it recited by John Isham of the Middle Temple, noted, “There is a foolishe rime runnes up and downe in the Court of Sir H[enry] Bromley, L[ord] Tho[mas] Haward, L[ord] Cobham, and the deane of Canterbury Dr. Nevil, that each should goe to move the K[ing] for what they like”. Nevil12 for the protestant, L Thomas for the papist Bromley34 for the puritane, L Cobham for the Atheist. Source. Manningham 235 B1 1 Nevil: Thomas Neville, Dean of Canterbury, was sent to Scotland on the death of Elizabeth I. Neville was deputed by John Whitgift, Archbishop of Canterbury, to present King James with the formal greetings of the English clergy. 2 L Thomas: Manningham identifies “L[ord] Thomas” as Lord Thomas “Haward” or Howard, who would be created Earl of Suffolk at the start of the new reign by James I. Chamberlain reported that Thomas Howard’s uncle, Lord Henry Howard, later Earl of Northampton, was sent to Scotland “to possesse the Kinges eare and countermine the Lord Cobham” (1.192). 3 Bromley: Chamberlain reported that Sir Henry Bromley was one of several men who rode post-haste to Scotland on the death of Elizabeth I (1.189). 4 L Cobham: Henry Brooke, Lord Cobham and Warden of the Cinque Ports. Cobham was a friend of Sir Walter Ralegh and thus is tarred here with the charges of atheism that dogged many in the Ralegh circle during the 1590s. Chamberlain (1.191) reported that Cobham had set off for Scotland to “go toward the kinge and do his wonted goode offices”. .

Hay Any Work for Cooper 1 ______
MARPRELATE TRACTS: HAY ANY WORK FOR COOPER 1 ________________________________________________________________________________ Hay Any Work For Cooper.1 Or a brief pistle directed by way of an hublication2 to the reverend bishops, counselling them if they will needs be barrelled up3 for fear of smelling in the nostrils of her Majesty and the state, that they would use the advice of reverend Martin for the providing of their cooper. Because the reverend T.C.4 (by which mystical5 letters is understood either the bouncing parson of East Meon,6 or Tom Cook's chaplain)7 hath showed himself in his late Admonition To The People Of England to be an unskilful and beceitful8 tub-trimmer.9 Wherein worthy Martin quits himself like a man, I warrant you, in the modest defence of his self and his learned pistles, and makes the Cooper's hoops10 to fly off and the bishops' tubs11 to leak out of all cry.12 Penned and compiled by Martin the metropolitan. Printed in Europe13 not far from some of the bouncing priests. 1 Cooper: A craftsman who makes and repairs wooden vessels formed of staves and hoops, as casks, buckets, tubs. (OED, p.421) The London street cry ‘Hay any work for cooper’ provided Martin with a pun on Thomas Cooper's surname, which Martin expands on in the next two paragraphs with references to hubs’, ‘barrelling up’, ‘tub-trimmer’, ‘hoops’, ‘leaking tubs’, etc. 2 Hub: The central solid part of a wheel; the nave. (OED, p.993) 3 A commodity commonly ‘barrelled-up’ in Elizabethan England was herring, which probably explains Martin's reference to ‘smelling in the nostrils of her Majesty and the state’.

The Quest for the Historical Hooker by JOHN Booty T Is Questionable to What Degree the Historian Or Biographer Can I Recover and Represent a Person out of the Past
The Quest for the Historical Hooker BY JOHN BooTY T is questionable to what degree the historian or biographer can I recover and represent a person out of the past. The task may be one of great difficulty when there is a wealth of material, as is true with regard to John Henry Newman. But the task may be infinitely more difficult where there is a scarcity of evidence, as is true with regard to William Shakespeare. In the quest for the historical Hooker we encounter a moderate amount of material, but we are also left with gaps and, as we now realize, we are confronted by some conflicting evidence, requiring the use of careful judgment. We begin with certain indisputable facts concerning Richard Hooker's life, facts which can be verified by reference to documents which the historian can examine and rely upon. 1 Hooker was born in 1554 at Heavitree in Devonshire of parents who were prominent in their locality but by no means wealthy. With the assistance of an uncle, the young Hooker was educated first at a grammar school in Exeter and then, under the patronage of John Jewel, Bishop of Salisbury, entered Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Subsequently he became an instructor in the University, was made a fellow of his college and was ordained to the ministry of the Church of England. There he remained, delivering the Hebrew lecture from 1579 until he departed from Oxford in 1584. Three facts concerning his time at the University are worth noting. The first is that he became the tutor of George Cranmer, whose father was a nephew of the famous Archbishop, and of Edwin Sandys, son of the Archbishop of York who became Hooker's patron after the death of Jewel in 1571.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Apostolic Succession
Apostolic Succession Episcopal Seal of the Most Rev. Richard A. Kalbfleisch, STL, DD, NOSF Through the Catholic Apostolic Church of Brazil (Igreja Catolica Apostolica Brasileira) Old Catholic Church of Utrecht Russian Orthodox Church The Church of England & The Episcopal Church in the USA Catholic Apostolic Church of Brazil Archbishop Carlos Duarte Costa, ordained a priest within The Church of Rome on 1 April 1911, was consecrated to be the Roman Diocesan Bishop of Botucatu, Brazil, on 8 December 1924. His public statements on the treatment of the poor in Brazil (by both the civil government and the Roman Church) resulted in his removal as Diocesan Bishop of Botucatu. Bishop Duarte Costa was subsequently named Titular Bishop of Maura by Pope Pius XII (Eugenio Cardinal Pacelli, Vatican Secretary of State until 1939 under Pope Pius XI). Archbishop Duarte Costa's criticisms of the Vatican, particularly the policy toward Nazi Germany, were not well received. He was formerly separated from the Church of Rome on 6 July 1945 after his strong and repeated public denunciations of the Vatican Secretariat of State for granting Vatican Passports to some very high ranking Nazis. Some of the most notorious Nazi war criminals (e.g., Adolf Eichmann and Dr. Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death,") escaped trial after World War II using Vatican Passports to flee to South America. The government of Brazil also came under the Bishop's criticism for collaborating with the Vatican on these passports. Bishop Duarte Costa espoused what would be considered today as a rather liberal position on divorce, challenged mandatory celibacy for clergy, and publicly condemned the perceived abuses of papal power (especially the concept of Papal Infallibility, which he considered misguided and false).

John Copcot, John Whitgift, and Mark Frank: ‘Right Cause and Faithful Obedience’
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN JOHN COPCOT, JOHN WHITGIFT, AND MARK FRANK: ‘RIGHT CAUSE AND FAITHFUL OBEDIENCE’ P.G. Stanwood Among many defenders of the reformed English Church in the years after the Elizabethan Settlement (1559), stand a number of lively proponents. One of them is John Copcot (ca. 1547–1590), who spent much of his life in Cambridge, where he eventually became master of Corpus Christi College in 1587, on the recommendation of Lord Burghley. Another is the well- known John Whitgift (ca. 1532–1604), Elizabeth’s archbishop of Canterbury from 1583. Closely aligned with Whitgift is Richard Bancroft (1564–1610), who succeeded Whitgift at Canterbury (1604). And finally, even as preach- ing at Paul’s Cross was nearing its end in the Laudian years, we meet the little-known, but estimable Mark Frank (1612/13–1664). All of these men held similar beliefs about obedience, hierarchy, and the episcopacy, regarding it as necessary for a strong and unified church, and all urged their doctrinal views in sermons at Paul’s Cross. Let us first consider John Copcot, whose Paul’s Cross sermon of 1584 is a typical example in defence of the Elizabethan Settlement against its Puritan detractors, and a condemnation of the disciplinarians.1 While Whitgift was addressing the boldly abusive Marprelate tracts with help from the strenuous invective of Richard Bancroft, Copcot appeared at Paul’s Cross in 1584 to answer the Counter-poison, also of the same year. This was a work probably by Dudley Fenner (c. 1558–1587). Fenner, a pro- tege of Thomas Cartwright, was an outspoken advocate of the ‘godly min- istry.’ He urged that the government of the church belonged to all people, and that they should choose from among themselves their own ministers.
