RISE OF THE DUTCH REPUBLIC, 1564-65 by Motley [#9][jm09v10.txt]4809

All offices were sold to the highest bidder

English Puritans

Habeas corpus

He did his best to be friends with all the world

Look through the cloud of dissimulation

No law but the law of the longest purse

Panegyrists of royal houses in the sixteenth century

Secret drowning was substituted for public burning

Sonnets of Petrarch

St. Bartholomew was to sleep for seven years longer

To think it capable of error, is the most devilish heresy of all
