[Footnote 204: The depositions of the malcontents often contained
expressions to the effect that the country was “ruled by knaves,”
and that the people thought “the Lady Mary would have a title to the
Crown one day”. In the course of the examination of the ringleaders,
in the Tower, after the rebellion, one of them said, “The Lady Mary
ought to be favoured for her great virtues, and the statute annulled
... that she should not be made illegitimate except by the law of the
whole Church, for she is marvellously beloved by the whole people”
(Examination of Aske, Record Office).]

[Footnote 205: The reason given was the affinity between her mother and
the King’s former mistress, Anne Boleyn’s sister. “Le statut declairant
princesse légitime héritiere la fille de la concubine a este revoque,
et elle [mesme] declairee bastarde, non point comme fille de maistre
Norris, comme se pouvait plus honnestement dire, mais pour avoir avant
este le mariage entre la dite concubine et le dit roy illégitime a
cause qu’il avait cognu charnellement la sœur de la dite concubine”
(Chapuys to M. de Granville, 8th July, 1536, Vienna Archives).]
