t-ion in the univerfities added fuel to the flame. The 
ftates of Brabant, with great fpirit, took up the public 
caufe, and refufed to grant fupplies till the obnoxious 
edifts were revoked; all orders of people joined in the 
fpirit of refiftance; and the court of Bruflels was obliged 
to temporife. The emperor, when informed of this op- 
polition, exprefled great indignation, and received with 
haughtinefs and difpleafure the deputies of the Low Coun¬ 
tries, who waited on him at Vienna. Preparations were 
made for enforcing obedience by an army ; but in the 
end it was thought proper to terminate the difference by 
giving up the point, and the joyeufe entree was re-eflablilhed 
in full force.
