362. T Norfolk to Lord Privy Seal, 29th March, 1543. Caligula, B. Vii. 2C8. 1541. JAMES V. 239 authority pronounces him a decided enemy to the power and interference of England in the internal administra- tion of his kingdom ; and the queen, whose influence over her husband was increased at this time by the birth of another prince, was a devoted adherent of Rome. To counteract the disposition of the sovereign towards the Reformation, the great reliance of Beaton and the prelates was in the pros...pect of a war with England ; for the attainment of this object no industry and no intrigues were omitted, no sacrifice considered too dear; and it unfortunately happened, that the violence of Henry the Eighth, with the unrelenting enmity of the Scottish monarch against the Douglases, and that large portion of the nobility connected with them by alliance or by interest, presented them with materials of mutual provocation, of which they well knew how to avail themselves. In the midst of these transactions the queen-mother was taken ill at Methven, the castle of her husband, and died after a varied and turbulent life, during the latter years of which she had lost all influence in the affairs of the kingdom.
