Lectures on the Relation between Law and Public Opinion in England
Queen Elizabeth I, credited with carrying through the Reformation in England despite her own mixed religious sympathies.
Elizabeth carried through the Reformation, but Elizabeth entertained beliefs or sympathies which belonged rather to Roman Catholicism than to Protestantism.
Ancient Law
English monarch whose accession marks the start of the period of conflict over American claims.
From the accession of Elizabeth to the accession of Charles the Second, it cannot be said that there was at any time thorough peace in the American waters, and the encroachments of the New England Colonists on the territory of the French King continued for almost a century longer.
De Anima
Mother of John, cited exulting when the unborn John moved within her.
Elizabeth exults — John had struck within;
De Carne Christi
Mother of John the Baptist, whose greeting of Mary as 'mother of my Lord' is cited as scriptural proof.
Elizabeth too, then, will keep silence, bearing the prophet — the infant already conscious of his Lord — and moreover filled with the Holy Spirit.
