| Summary: | Bancroft's celebrated sermon was delivered at St. Paul's Cross on 9 February 1588/9. Two editions appeared in England during the summer. The protests from English Puritans—Dr Reynolds of Oxford University, Sir Francis Knollys—soon died away. Bancroft was denouncing the puritan movement more forcibly than it had been denounced, but so far as England was concerned he was saying nothing which had not already been said by Anglican controversialists like John Whitgift, John Bridges, Thomas Cooper. The novelty of the sermon lay in its attitude to foreign churches. The presbyterian movement in England claimed the support of the protestant churches in Scotland, Holland, the Rhineland, Switzerland. Bancroft was not afraid to transform the denunciation of presbyterianism in England into a denunciation of Presbyterianism in general. |
