The Emperor, having escaped from these great perils, addressed some noble and touching complaints to our monarch; and Monseigneur was not elected King of the Romans, a disappointment which he hardly noticed, and by which he was very little disturbed. The Prince of Orange. The Orange Coach. The Bowls of Oranges. The Orange Blossoms. The Town of Orange. Jesuits of Orange.
He began by saying, that the conspiracy was evident, and was easily explained by the state of exasperation in which the Jesuits and parliamentarians now were; both orders looking for no other prospect of amendment in their condition than such as might arise from some sudden convulsion of the kingdom.
Less influenced by the Jesuits and the Spaniards, and more moderate towards the religious views of others, he was more likely than his father to listen to the voice of reason.
I have just seen your name in this very paper which you caught me reading see! the next heading under that concerning the King and the Jesuits 'Thord's Rabble. Are not you that same Thord?"
To add to the general confusion, this was also the year in which the Pope sent his picked Jesuits to England, and in which Elizabeth was carrying on her last great international flirtation with ugly, dissipated Francis of Anjou, brother to the king of France.
