And when, by the deceitful promise of the Roman court, Edmund was hoping to become another Thomas, by whose glorious combat the i 4 2 ST EDMUND evil customs of the English Church were put an end to, and that Pope Gregory would emulate the example of Pope Alexander in the time of Blessed Thomas, his co- exile and helper, Pope Gregory was suddenly found to be timid as a man ; and at the bidding of the King of England, who asserted this to be in opposition to his royal dignity, he revoked and annu...lled all his devout promises, about which the Archbishop had even obtained papal letters, not without great expense. At this, the king became more insolent and tyrannical than ever, and he procured the election of Boniface, * in opposition to the liberties of the Church of Winchester, by effectually impeding all else, though done rightly and with good intent.
His Visions.
Cotton MS. (Wallace, p. 569). The man of God, therefore, seeing that he would have to yield and to retire, according to the words of the poet, "When a madman is on his course, give place to his raving, " on a certain night prayed very earnestly that the Angel of good Counsel would direct his steps and would enlighten his heart as to what should be done that was best, and most fitting, and most salutary for his soul in this emergency.
