372 HISTORY OF ENGLAND. [A. D. 1553.—Chap. XXXVI. health and welfare: and by all these artifices he prevailed on the young prince to give his final consent to the set tlement projected. Sir Edward Montague, chief justice of the Common Pleas, Sir John Baker and Sir Thomas Bromley, two judges, with the attorney and solicitor general, were summoned to the council; where, after the minutes of the intended deed were read to them, the king required them to draw them up in the forms of letters patent. They hesitated to obey; and desired time to consider of it. The more they reflected, the greater danger they found in compliance. The settlement of the crown by Henry VIII. had been made in consequence of an act of parliament; and by another act passed in the beginning of this reign, it was d dared treason in any of the heirs, their aiders or abettors, to attempt on the right of another, or change the order of succession. The judges pleaded these reasons before the council. They urged, that such a patent as was intended, would be entirely invalid ; that it would subject, not only the judges who drew it, but every counsellor who signed it, to the pains of treason; and that the only proper expedient, botn for giving sanc tion to the new settlement, and freeing its partisans from danger, was to summon a parliament, and to obtain the consent of that assembly. The king said, that he intended afterwards to follow that method, and would call a par liament, in which he purposed to have his settlement rati fied; but, in the mean time, he required the judges, on their allegiance, to draw the patent in the form required. The council told the judges, that their refusal would sub ject all of them to the pains of treason. Northumberland gave to Montague the appellation of traitor; and said, that he would, in his shirt, fight any man in so just a cause as that of Lady Jane’s succession. The judges were re duced to great difficulties between the dangers from the law, and those which arose from the violence of present power and authority. 111 The arguments were canvassed in several different meetings between the council and the judges ; and no so lution could be found of the difficulties. At last, Mon tague proposed an expedient, which satisfied both his brethren and the counsellors. He desired that a special commission should be passed by the king and council, requiring the judges to draw a patent for the new settle ment of the crown, that a pardon should immed.ately after be granted them for any offence which they might have incurred by their compliance. When the patent was drawn, and brought to the Bishop of Ely, chancellor, in order to have the great seal affixed to it, this prelate re quired that all the judges should previously sign it. Gos- nald at first refused ; and it was with much difficulty that he was prevailed on, by the violent menaces of Northum berland, to comply ; but the constancy of Sir James Bales, who, though a zealous protestant, preferred justice, on this occasion, to the prejudices of his party, could not be shaken by any expedient. The chancellor next required, for his greater security, that all the privy counsellors should set their hands to the patent: the intrigues of Northumber land, or the fears of bis violence, were so prevalent, that sist Jun counsellors complied with this demand. Cranmer alone hesitated during some time, but at last yielded to the earnest and pathetic entreaties of the king." Cecil, at that time secretary of state, pretended afterwards that he only signed as witness to the king’s subscription. And thus, by the king’s letters patent, the two princesses, Mary and Elizabeth, were set aside; and the crown was settled on the heirs of the Duchess of Suffolk : for the duchess herself was content to give place to her daughters. After this settlement was made, with so many inauspi cious circumstances, Edward visibly declined every day ; and small hopes were entertained of his recovery. To make matters worse, bis physicians were dismissed by Northumberland’s advice, and by an order of council; and he was put into the hands of an ignorant woman, who undertook in a little time to restore him to his former state of health. After the use of her medicines, all the bad symptoms increased to the most violent degree: he felt a difficulty of speech and breathing; his pulse failed, his m Fuller, book viii. p. 2. n Cranm. Mein. p. 295. legs swelled, his colour became livid ; and many other symptoms appeared of his approaching end. He expired at Greenwich, in the sixteenth year of his and death, age, and the seventh of his reign. July. All the English historians dwell with pleasure on the excellent qualities of this young prince; whom the flatter ing promises of hope, joined to many real virtues, had made an object of tender affection to the public. He pos sessed mildness of disposition, application to study and business, a capacity to learn and judge, and an attach ment to equity and justice. He seems only to have con tracted, from his education, and from the genius of the age in which he lived, too much of a narrow prepossession in matters of religion, which made him incline somewhat to bigotry and persecution : but as the bigotry of protes tants, less governed by priests, lies under more restraints than that of catholics, the effects of this malignant quality were the less to be apprehended, if a longer life had been granted to young Edward. CHAP. XXXVI. MARY. Lady Jane Gray proclaimed queen—-Deserted by the people—The queen proclaimed and acknowledged—Northumberland executed—Catholic religion restored—A parliament—Deliberations with regard to the Sueen’s marriage—Queen's marriage with Philip—Wyat’s Insurrection— uppressed—Execution of Lady Jane Gray—A parliament—Philip’s arrival in England. The title of the Princess Mary, after the demise of her brother, was not exposed to ’ ' 1 '' any considerable difficulty; and the objections started by the Lady Jane’s partisans were new and unheard-of by the nation. Though all the protestants, and even many of the catholics, believed the marriage of Henry VIII. with Catherine of Arragon to be unlawful and invalid; yet, as it had been contracted by the parties without any criminal intention, had been avowed by their parents, recognized by the nation, and seemingly founded on those principles of law and religion which then prevailed, few imagined that their issue ought on that account to be regarded as illegitimate. A declaration to that purpose had indeed been extorted from parliament by the usual violence and caprice of Henry; but as that monarch had afterwards been induced to restore his daughter to the right of suc cession, her title was now become as legal and parliamen tary as it was ever esteemed just and natural. The public had long been familiarized to these sentiments : during all the reign of Edward, the princess was regarded as his lawful successor : and though the protestants dreaded the effects of her prejudices, the extreme hatred universally entertained against the Dudleys, 3 who, men foresaw, would, under the name of Jane, be the real sovereigns, was more than sufficient to counterbalance, even with that party, the attachment to religion. This last attempt to violate the order of succession, had displayed Northum berland’s ambition and injustice in a full light; and when the people reflected on the long train of fraud, iniquity, and cruelty, by which that project had been conducted ; that the lives of the two Seymours, as well as the title of the princesses, had been sacrificed to it; they were moved by indignation to exert themselves in opposition to such criminal enterprises. The general veneration also paid to the memory of Henry VIII. prompted the nation to de fend the rights of his posterity ; and the miseries of the ancient civil wars were not so entirely forgotten, that men were willing, by a departure from the lawful heir, to incur the danger of like bloodshed and confusion. Northumberland, sensible of the opposition which he must expect, had carefully concealed the destination made by the king; and in order to bring the two princesses into his power, he bad had the precaution to engage the coun cil, before Edward’s death, to write to them, in that prince’s name, desiring their attendance, on pretence that his in firm state of health required the assistance of their coun- a Sleidan, lib. 25.
