350 HISTORY OF ENGLAND. [A. D. 1546.—Chap. XXXIII. his majesty, she well knew, that her conceptions could serve to no other purpose than to give him a little mo mentary amusement; that she found the conversation apt to languish, when not revived by some opposition, and she had ventured sometimes to feign a contrariety of sentiments, in order to give him the pleasure of refuting her; and that she also purposed, by tnis innocent artifice, to engage him into topics whence she had observed, by frequent experience, that she reaped profit and instruction. “ And is it so, sweetheart?” replied the king; “ then are we perfect friends again.” He embraced her with great affection, and sent her away with assurances of his protec tion and kindness. Her enemies, who knew nothing of this sudden change, prepared next day to convey her to the Tower, pursuant to the king’s warrant. Henry and Catherine were conversing amicably in the garden, when the chancellor appeared, with forty of the pursuivants. The king spoke to him at some distance from her; and seemed to expostulate with him in the severest manner: she even overheard the appellations of knave, fool, and beast, which he liberally bestowed upon that magistrate; and then ordered him to depart his presence: she afterwards interposed, to mitigate his anger: he said to her, “ poor soulI you know not how ill entitled this man is to your good offices.” Thenceforth the queen, having narrowly escaped so great a danger, was careful not to offend Henry’s humour by any contradiction; and Gardiner, whose malice had endeavoured to widen the breach, could never afterwards regain his favour and good opinion.“ But Henry’s tyrannical disposition, soured by ill health, burst out soon after, to the destruction of a man who pos sessed a much superior rank to that of Gardiner. The Duke of Norfolk and his father, during this whole reign, and even a part of the foregoing, had been regarded as the greatest subjects in the kingdom, and had rendered con siderable service to the crown. The duke himself had in his youth acquired reputation by naval enterprises : he had much contributed to the victory gained over the Scots at Flouden : he had suppressed a dangerous rebellion in the north : and he had always done his part with honour, in all the expeditions against France. Fortune seemed to conspire with his own industry, in raising him to the greatest elevation. From the favours heaped on him by the crown, he had acquired an immense estate: the king had successively been married to two of his nieces; and the king’s natural son, the Duke of Richmond, had married his daughter; besides his descent from the ancient family of the Mowbrays, by which he was allied to the throne, he had espoused a daughter of the Duke of Buckingham, who was descended, bv a female, from Edward III.: and as he was believed still to adhere secretly to the ancient religion, he was regarded, both abroad and at home, as the head of the catholic party. But all these circumstances, in proportion as they exalted the duke, provoked the jealousy of Henry; and he foresaw danger, during his son’s minority, both to the public tranquillity and to the new ecclesiastical system, from the attempts of so potent a subject. But nothing tended more to expose Norfolk to the king’s displeasure, than the prejudices which Henry had entertained against the Earl of Surrey, son of that nobleman. Surrey was a young man of the most promising hopes, and had distinguished himself by every accomplishment which became a scholar, a courtier, and a soldier. He excelled in all the military exercises which were then in request: he encouraged the fine arts by his patronage and example: he had made some successful attempts in poetry; and being smitten with the romantic gallantry of the age, he celebrated the praises of his mistress, by his pen and his lance, in every masque and tournament. His spirit and ambition were equal to his talents and his quality; and he did not always regulate his conduct by the caution and reserve which his situation required. He had been left governor of Boulogne when that town was taken by Henry; but though his personal bravery was unques tioned, he had been unfortunate in some rencounters with the French. The. king, somewhat displeased with his conduct, had sent over Hertford to command in his place; m Burnet, vol. i. p. .344. Herbert, p. 560. Speed, p. 780. Fox's Acts anti Monuments, vol. ii. p. 58. and Surrey was so imprudent as to drop some menacing expressions against the ministers, on account of this affront which was put upon him. And as he had refused to marry Hertford’s daughter, and even waved every other proposal of marriage, Henry imagined that he had enter tained views of espousing the Lady Mary; and he was instantly determined to repress, by the most severe expe dients, so dangerous an ambition. Actuated by all these motives, and perhaps influenced by that old disgust with which the ill conduct of Catherine Howard had inspired him against her whole family, he gave private orders to arrest N orfolk and Surrey; and they were on the same day confined in the ’ Tower. Surrey being a commoner, his trial * ' ec ' was the more expeditious; and as to proofs, neither par liaments nor juries seem ever to have given the least attention to them in any cause of the crown A D 1J47 during this whole reign. He was accused Execution or die of entertaining in his family some Italians Earl °* Surre >- who were suspected to be spies ; a servant of his had paid a visit to Cardinal Pole in Italy, whence he was suspected of holding a correspondence with that obnoxious prelate; he had quartered the arms of Edward the Confessor on his scutcheon, which made him be suspected of aspiring to the crown, though both he and his ancestors had openly, during the course of many years, maintained that practice, and the heralds had even justified it by their authority. These were the crimes for which a jury, notwithstanding his eloquent and spirited defence, condemned the Earl of Surrey for high treason; and their sentence was soon after executed upon him. The innocence of the Duke of Norfolk Att , in(ler of tlle was still, if possible, more apparent than that Duke of Nor. of his son; and his services to the crown folk - had been greater. His duchess, with whom he lived on bad terms, had been so base as to carry intelligence to his enemies of all she knew against him : Elizabeth Holland, a mistress of his, had been equally subservient to the designs of the court: yet, with all these advantages, his accusers discovered no greater crime, than his once saying that the king was sickly, and could not hold out long; and the kingdom was likely to fall into disorders, through the diversity of religious opinions. He wrote a pathetic letter to the king, pleading his past sendees, and protesting his innocence: soon after, he embraced a more proper expedient for appeasing Henry, by making a submission and confession, such as his enemies required : but nothing could mollify the unrelenting temper of the Jan king. He assembled a parliament as the dn ’ surest and most expeditions instrument of his tyranny; and the House of Peers, without examining the prisoner, without trial or evidence, passed a bill of attainder against him, and sent it down to the Commons. Cranmer, though engaged for many years in an opposite party to Norfolk, and though he had received many and great injuries from him, would have no hand in so unjust a prosecution; and he retired to his seat at Croydon." The king was now approaching fast towards his end; and fearing lest Nor folk should escape him, he sent a message to the Commons, by which he desired them to hasten the bill, on pretence that Norfolk enjoyed the dignity of Earl Marshal, and it was necessary to appoint another, who might officiate at the ensuing ceremony of installing his son Prince of Wales. The obsequious Commons obeyed his directions, though founded on so frivolous a pretence; and the king, having affixed the royal assent to the bill by commission ers, issued orders for the execution of Norfolk on the morning of the twenty-ninth of January. But news being carried to the Tower, that the king himself had expired that night, the lieutenant deferred obeying the warrant; and it was not thought advisable by the council to begin a new reign by the death of the greatest nobleman in the kingdom, who had been condemned by a sentence so unjust and tyrannical. The king’s health had long been in a declining state ; but for several days all those near him plainly saw his end approaching. He was become so froward, that no one durst inform him of his condition; and as some per- n Burnet, vol. i. p. 348. Fox.
