Note 745 — INDEX.
Reading edition
Footnote 745: "It was not from Parliament," says Brewer (L. and P., iv., Introd., p. dcxlvii.), "but from Convocation that the King had to anticipate any show of independence or opposition." True, to some extent; but the fact does not prove, as Brewer alleges, that Convocation was more independent than Parliament, but that Henry was doing what Parliament liked and Convocation disliked.(back)
