[Footnote 745: "It was not from Parliament," says Brewer (_L. and P._, iv., Introd., p. dcxlvii.), "but from Convocation that the King had to anticipate any show of independence or opposition." True, to some extent; but the fact does not prove, as Brewer alleges, that Convocation was more independent than Parliament, but that Henry was doing what Parliament liked and Convocation disliked.] [Footnote 746: "The Queen replied that they were all fine councillors, for when she asked advice of the Archbishop of Canterbury, he replied that he would not meddle in these affairs, saying frequently, _Ira principis mors est_" (Chapuys to Charles V., 6th June, 1531). Warham was one of the counsel assigned to the Queen for the divorce question.] [Footnote 747: _L. and P._, v., 1247. Warham also made a formal protest against the legislation of 1529-32 (_ibid._, v., 818). The likeness between Henry VIII. and Henry II. extended beyond their policy to their personal characteristics, and the great Angevin was much in the Tudor's mind at this period. Chapuys also called Henry VIII.'s attention to the fate of Henry II. (_ibid._, vii., 94).] [Footnote 748: _L. and P._, v., App. 10.] [Footnote 749: _Ibid._, v., 831; _cf._ v., 898, 989, App. 28.]
