BISHOP AYLMER. 197 



This character his conversation in times past in the Court CHAP. 



enabled him to give of Queen Elizabeth. And by giving 1_ 



this in the most public manner he could, in a printed book, 

 he did a piece of very good service, to reconcile her a due 

 respect in the minds of her subjects ; many of whom, being 

 led away by the Priests and actors in the late Popish go 

 vernment under her sister, had no great stomach to receive 

 her. And therefore all the fairest characters, as well as 

 other means to be used, were to be divulged of her. Where 

 in our Divine did his part, and merited well.
