The History of the Lord Cobham, that we have in the book of Martyrs, is famous in this kind: he was a man of great birth, and in great favour with King Henry the fifth, so as the Archbishop Thomas Arundell durst not meddle with him till he knew the Kings mind: the King when he heard of it, bad them have respect to his noble stock, and promised to deal with him himself; & after he privately sent for him, admonishing him secretly between themselves, to submit to his holy mother the Church: unto whom he made this answer; Most worthy Prince, I am always prompt, and ready to obey, for as much as I know you an appointed minister of God; unto you (next my eternal God) I owe my whole obedience, and submit thereunto as I have done, ever ready at all times to fulfil whatsoever you shall in the Lord command me; but as touching the Pope and his spirituality, I owe them neither suite, nor service, ⟨p. 36⟩for as much as I know him by the Scripture to be the great Antichrist, the son of perdition, the open adversary of God, and the abomination standing in the holy place.
