Grindal had such an Estimation of Bishop Whitgift, then in the time of his Troubles, that he with other great Men were desirous of his Promotion to Canterbury, and Grindal would be content with a Pension, but Arch-bishop Whitgift utterly refused so to do; Sir George Paul in the Life of Arch-bishop Whitgift, p. 26. See now how the whole Convocation by their Letter, and Whitgift by his refusal, did contribute to the Indulgence, by desiring the Restoration and Continuance of Grindal in his Place; and for all I see, if Grindalizers do no worse than Grindal, the Church may be safe enough. Ay, but this Remarker sees more into the ways of the Church-Moles, than they themselves do; and more into the Church-story of those times, than we do. Grindal's fault was, first in complying with Beza in procuring the Settlement of the French Church in London. Where note, if it was a fault to admit a Church on the Geneva Principle, is it not a Grindalizing in our Arch-bishops and Bishops to suffer it now? Here's Charity to reformed Protestants! 2. In complying with the Protestants that returned from Frankford; but did he promote Whittingham to be Dean of Durham, Sampson to be Dean of Christ-Church? was he Patron of all the Preferments? &c. But it's remarkable, how closely he follows the Clew of History. Cartwright was none of the Exiles in Frankford. 2. Was not preferred to Warwick, neither by him, nor in his time, but by Arch-bishop Whitgift: And if Grindal was a Grindalizer, Whitgift was, for he placed Cartwright in Warwick, and was by his Connivance, a cause of what Mischief Mr. Cartwright did; and the Queen was offended with Whitgift for conniving at Cartwright, as Sir George Paul writes in the Life of Arch-bishop Whitg. p. 55. And now we Church-Moles have by the Candlelight of History found, that Whitgift was no better than a Grindalizer, and so one of us.
