influence. He was made Master
of Pembroke Hall soon after. He refused two bishoprics offered him by
Elizabeth because he would not consent to the alienation of any part of
their revenues; but became Dean of Windsor in 1601. He subsequently
became Bishop of Chichester in 1605; of Ely in 1609; of Winchester in
1619. He took part in the Hampton Court Conference, and his name stands
first in the list of the authors of the Authorised Version.

[14] Patrick Galloway had followed the King from Scotland: he had
assisted James in some of his religious writings, and was Moderator of
the General Assembly in 1590 and 1602. He afterwards upheld the
liberties of the Kirk against the attempts of James to restrict them,
and warmly supported the Five Articles of Perth in 1618.

[17] Sir Amyas Preston came of a good family settled at Crichet in
Somerset. He was lieutenant of the _Ark_ in the attack on the Armada:
and afterwards ravaged the West Indies, in company of Somers, in 1596.
He was knighted by Howard during his Cadiz expedition. He seems to have
been a friend of Essex; the challenge to Raleigh took place in 1601, but
did not lead to a meeting.

[18] Edmund Campian (1540-1581), the famous Jesuit, was educated at
Christ's Hospital, and afterward at St. John's, Oxford. He took an oath
against the Pope's supremacy on proceeding to a Master's degree, in
1564; but was probably always a Catholic at heart. He welcomed Elizabeth
to Oxford in a Latin oration in 1566, and was subsequently patronised by
Leicester and Cecil. He took deacon's orders, and went to Dublin in the
hope of having the direction of the Dublin University, which it was
proposed to resuscitate. He fell under suspicion as a Papist, but
managed to escape arrest and return to England, whence, after hearing
Dr. Storey's trial in 1571, he repaired to Douay, and formally renounced
the Protestant faith. He went to Rome, became a Jesuit, and was among
the first to be despatched to England on a Jesuit mission. He landed at
Dover in 1580, and was arrested, but released and went to London. After
various adventures in different parts of the country he was again
arrested, and brought to London in 1581. He was rigorously examined as

Catholics to separate themselves from the English communion. Afterwards
he was tortured, and a report, probably false, was spread ab
