By an injunction set forth by royal authority, A. D. 1539, it was ordered, “That from henceforth the said Thomas Becket shall not be esteemed, named, reputed, and called a saint, but Bishop Becket; and that his images and pictures thorow the whole realme shal be pluckt downe and avoided out of all churches, chapel, and other places.”—Fox’s Martyrology.
