_King's College Chapel Windows._--In _The Blazon of Gentrie_, by John
Ferne, London, 1586, it is said (p. 248.):--
"If anie personne doth give, or by his testament shall bequeth
money to build a temple, the walles of a city, port, a causey,
churches, &c., he maye set his armes upon the same. If so be that
he did this, of his owne free will and liberalitie. But if he did
the same by compulsion (beeing for that purpose set unto some
mulcte or fine, for his offence, and so constrained to make his
redemption by the building or repayring of the like things), he
may not set his armes in such publique workes, as that bishop was,
which being condemned in the Præmunire, redeemed the punishment of
that offence, by the glasing of the King's College chappell
windowes in Cambridge, a glasse-work of worthy admiration."
Is there any foundation for this story, and who was the bishop?
