Question
Read the following passage written in 1553 by Simon Renard, the Holy Roman Empire’s ambassador to England, to answer the question.
“It is easy to foresee that there will be difficulty in repressing the heretics without causing scandal . . . The thing most to be feared is that the Queen may be moved by her religious ardor and zeal to attempt to right matters at one stroke, for this cannot be done in the case of a people that has drunk so deep an error.”
What situation did Holy Roman Empire ambassador Simon Renard describe as difficult to repress because of the English people’s experiences with the Anglican Church?
