Excerpt from A Relation of the Conference Between William Laud, Late Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, and Mr. Fisher the Jesuit: By the Command of King James, of Ever Blessed Memory, With an Answer to Such Exceptions as A. C. Takes Against It

Whatever might be the speculative opinions of the king, it is clear that the character of his mind, and the principles of his government, civil and ecclesiastical, were in accordance with the genuine spirit of the Vatican; and it was natural for his subjects to suppose that if he could have obtained full security for the acknowledgment of his supremacy as a sovereign, he would willingly have surrendered many of the theological points at issue, in order to a readmission into the Romish communion.

Now had circumstances been much less favourable to the Romanists, their wily policy would still have found materials and opportunities for converting them to their own advantage; but at a time when the powerful appeals, that they could make to the fears and imaginations of their hearers, had the appearance of being more reasonable from the utter want of unity among the protestants, and were actually more attractive, owing to the alleged favour of the court, they disregarded the severe penalties of the laws, and proclaimed openly the greater security of their profession of faith, and the rapid increase of their numbers.
