It was but natural too, and for more noble motives, tosuch a character as his. As he had aimed in his youth at nothing lessthan supremacy in tennis, hunting and tourney, and later inarchitecture, music and theological reputation; as, for the same reasonWolsey had fallen, when the King looked away from girls and sports tothe fiercer game of politics; so now it was intolerable to Henry thatthere should be even the shadow of a spiritual independence within hisdomain.
A glow of resentful disappoint...ment swept through the North of England atthe news. It burst out into flame in Lincolnshire, and was not finallyquenched until the early summer of the following year.
* * * * * The news that reached Lewes from time to time during the winter andspring sent the hearts of all that heard it through the whole gamut ofemotions. At one time fierce hope, then despair, then rising confidence, then again blank hopelessness--each in turn tore the souls of the monks;and misery reached its climax in the summer at the news of the executionat Tyburn of the Abbots of Jervaulx and Fountains, with other monks andgentlemen.
