But Possevino's influence could not prevail upon that monarch to re-establish Romanism in face of the determined opposition of the nation ; and the hopes of Rome were deferred, till in 1592 Sigismund, who had been educated by his mother Catherine in Roman Catholic tenets in order to secure the throne of Poland, became by the death of his father king of Sweden. He was bound by his coronation oath not to injure the Church of the country, but these promises soon gave way before his consuming zeal ...on behalf of Rome. The influence of the Catholics began to increase ; but they were in a very small minority, and the Protestants found a leader in the king's uncle Charles, and during Sigismund's absence in Poland Protestantism was re-established. Sigismund now appealed to arms, but was completely defeated at Stangebro in 1598.
In these disastrous enterprises Poland was acting chiefly as the cat's-paw of the house of Austria. Its dependence Subservience upon that power was a circumstance which to Austria.
