Ye see therefore, M. Harding, neither is this gnat so little, as by your scornful comparison, to the great dishonour of this Noble Realm, ye would seem to make it: nor is the grief, and complaint thereof so new, as ye bear us in hand. 1King Canutus, the King of England almost six hundred years ago, being at Rome, wrote home to the Archbishops, and Bishops, and States of the Realm, on this wise: Conquestus sum item coram Domino Papa, & mihi valdè displicere dixi, quòd mei Archiepiscopi in tantum angariabatur immensitate pecuniarum, quae ab eis expetebatur, &c. Also I have made my complaint unto the Pope, and told him, that it match disliketh me, that my Archbishops should be vexed with such unreasonable sums of money required of them.
Yée sée therefore, M. Harding, neither is this gnatte so litle, as by your scorneful comparison, to the greate dishonoure of this Noble Realme, yée woulde séeme to make it: nor is the griefe, and complainte thereof so newe, as yée beare vs in hande.
