We can hardly wonder that More denounced the book as heretical, or that Warham ordered it to be given up by all who possessed it. Wolsey took little heed of religious matters, but his policy was one of political adhesion to Rome, and he presided over a solemn penance to which some Steelyard men submitted in St. Paul's.
It is in fact doubtful whether Henry could have procured a judgment from Warham; but Warham was dead, and the successor appointed was Thomas Cranmer, who already before he had been dragged into public life had committed himself to the sufficiency of the judgment of the English courts.
Cyril, charming and adored as ever, is considering whether he shall accept the historic bishopric of Warham. A strange youth from America is announced, and asks the dean to give him a university education "because I am your son." "Since when," returns the dean tranquilly, "have you been suffering from this distressing illusion?" The youth bears a letter from Alma.
If this fellow brings the mob at Ellisland upon us, that tar will be run, and that feather-bed gutted, for our benefit. What they took from the geese will be bestowed on us. Do you understand me? Did you ever hear of a man whose coat was made of tar and feathers, and furnished at the expense of the county?" "Hush, for God's sake, Warham! you make my blood run cold with your hideous notions!"
And the regimen still held, except when they had company in the evening or went out and Mrs. Warham saw to it that there was not too much of that sort of thing. In all her life thus far Susan had never slept less than ten hours, rarely less than twelve.
His ability led to further honors, until, on the death of Warham, archbishop of Canterbury, he was appointed to the vacant see, the first office in dignity and importance in the kingdom, and from which no king, however absolute, could eject him, except by the loss of life. We shall see that, in all matters of religion, Cranmer was the ruling spirit in England until the accession of Mary.
He had no regular income except a pension from Lord Mountjoy, to which in 1512 Warham added the living of Aldington in Kent; and these were supplemented by occasional gifts from friends, which he courted by dedicating to them translations from Plutarch and Lucian, Chrysostom and Basil. But this was not enough. He was free in his tastes, and liked to be free in his spending.
Now, tell me, Susan" and his voice was cruelly harsh "all about what's been going on between you and Sam." She gazed fearlessly and was silent. "Speak up!" commanded Sam's father. "Yes and no lies," said her uncle. "I don't know what you mean," Susan at last answered truthfully enough, yet to gain time, too. "You can't play that game any longer," cried Warham.
I shall, I'm certain, and you must, provided you give your eyes the benefit, and your nose the burden of your green specs." "Impossible! I can scarce believe it, Warham," replied the senior. "I thought her very beautiful." "I shall never rely on your judgment again; nay, uncle, I am almost inclined to suspect your taste."
Hallam, p. 25, or in the more pointed letter of Warham's, two pages on, which we do not see lying on our breakfast tables in half the newspapers every week? Very dreadful if true: which last point depends very much upon who Warham was. Now, on reading Mr.
