Capons or sausages on Good Friday, the Psalms of Clement Marot, the Sermon on the Mount in the vernacular, led to the rack, the gibbet, and the stake, but ushered in a war against the inquisition which was to last for eighty years. Brederode was not to be the hero of that party which he disgraced by his buffoonery.

'But where have I heard your name before, Mr. Hector Marot? 'Nay, he answered, with a sharp, sidelong look, 'I cannot tell that. 'It is familiar to mine ear, said I. He shrugged his broad shoulders, and continued to look to the priming of his pistols, with a half-defiant and half-uneasy expression.

It often falls out, that being displeased at some action that civility and reason will not permit me openly to reprove, I here disgorge myself, not without design of public instruction: and also these poetical lashes, "Zon zur l'oeil, ion sur le groin, Zon zur le dos du Sagoin," Marot. imprint themselves better upon paper than upon the flesh.

'A very wise and seasonable proposition, cried Sir Gervas. 'Master Marot, a pinch from my snuff-box, which is ever a covenant of friendship with its owner.

Throughout the blood-stained soil of France, too, the men who were fighting the same great battle as were the Netherlanders against Philip II. and the Inquisition, the valiant cavaliers of Dauphiny and Provence, knelt on the ground, before the battle, smote their iron breasts with their mailed hands, uttered a Calvinistic prayer, sang a psalm of Marot, and then charged upon Guise, or upon Joyeuse, under the white plume of the Bearnese.
