Sir Jonathan Trelawny Bishop of Bristol William Lloyd Bishop of St. Asaph William Sancroft Bishop of Canterbury was three of the Bishops on trial for seditious libel under King James II. From wikipedia: <br /> <br /> Sir Jonathan Trelawny 3rd Baronet 24 March 1650 – 19 July 1721 was a British Bishop of Bristol Bishop of Exeter and Bishop of Winchester. Trelawny is best known for his role in the events leading up to the Glorious Revolution which are sometimes believed to be referenced in the Cornish anthem The Song of the Western Men. He was born at Trelawne in the parish of Pelynt Cornwall the eldest surviving son of Sir Jonathan Trelawny 2nd Baronet. He was educated at Westminster School and then went to Christ Church Oxford at the start of the Michaelmas term of 1668 where he distinguished himself as a scholar.<br /> A staunch royalist he was ordained in 1673 and became a beneficed clergyman. He was appointed rector of South Hill on 4 October and of St. Ives on 12 December 1677 becoming Bishop of Bristol in 1685. He was one of the Seven Bishops tried for seditious libel under James II. Trelawny and the other bishops petitioned against James II's Declaration of Indulgence in 1687 and 1688 granting religious tolerance to Catholics and as a result he was arrested and imprisoned in the Tower of London on charges of seditious libel. The bishops said that whilst they were loyal to King James II their consciences would not agree to allowing freedom of worship to Catholics even if it were to be within the privacy of their own homes as the Declaration proposed; thus they could not sign. Trelawny was held for three weeks before trial then tried and acquitted; this led to great celebrations with bells being rung in his home parish of Pelynt.1<br /> <br /> William Lloyd was born at Tilehurst in Berkshire in 1627 the son of Richard Lloyd then vicar1 who was the son of David Lloyd of Henblas Anglesey. By the age of eleven he had understanding in Greek and Latin and somewhat of Hebrew before attending Oriel and Jesus Colleges Oxford later becoming a Fellow of Jesus College.2 He graduated M.A. in 1646. In 1663 he was prebendary of Ripon in 1667 prebendary of Salisbury in 1668 archdeacon of Merioneth in 1672 dean of Bangor and prebendary of St Paul's London in 1680 bishop of St Asaph in 1689 lord-almoner in 1692 bishop of Lichfield and Coventry and in 1699 bishop of Worcester.3 As Bishop of Lichfield he rebuilt the diocesan residence at Eccleshall Castle which had been destroyed in the Civil War.4<br /> Lloyd was an indefatigable opponent of the Roman Catholic tendencies of James II of England and was one of the seven bishops who for refusing to have the Declaration of Indulgence read in his diocese was charged with publishing a seditious libel against the king.3 However he was acquitted in 1688 which was one of the events that lead to the fall of James II.citation needed<br /> He engaged Gilbert Burnet to write The History of the Reformation of the Church of England and provided him with much material. He was a good scholar and a keen student of biblical apocalyptic literature and himself "prophesied" to Anne Queen of Great Britain Robert Harley 1st Earl of Oxford and Mortimer William Whiston and John Evelyn the diarist. Lloyd was a staunch supporter of the Glorious Revolution.3<br /> He lived to the age of ninety-one and died at Hartlebury Castle on 30 August 1717. He was buried in the church of Fladbury near Evesham in Worcestershire of which his son was rector and where a monument is erected to his memory with a long inscription.5<br /> <br /> William Sancroft 30 January 1617 – 24 November 1693 was the 79th Archbishop of Canterbury2 and was one of the Seven Bishops imprisoned in 1688 for seditious libel against King James II over his opposition to the king's Declaration of Indulgence. Deprived of his office in 1690 for refusing to swear allegiance to William and Mary he later enabled and supported the consecration of new nonjuring bishops leading to the nonjuring schism.

1649KK6902Leiden: B. & A. Elzevir 1649. Hardcover. Very Good. Salamasius Defensio Regia pro Carolo I which supported divine origin of kingship and the rule of Charles I of England anonymously printed in 1649. Reprinted Sumptibus Regiis 1650. 12mo 125 x 75mm. 472pp. Later vellum edges stained blue; only lightly rubbed lacking ties. Armorial bookplate of Franciscus Antonius Comes de Stürgkh 18th-century Austrian Graf to front pastedown period inscription on front flyleaf. <br/><br/>Defensio Regia pro Carolo I Defense of the Reign of Charles I which was published anonymously in November 1649 was probably sponsored by Charles II who is thought to have paid a hundred pounds for its printing. The work called for European rulers to unite against the new English republic and place Prince Charles on the throne. This work represents a reversal of Salmasius earlier views since it supported the divine origin of kingship defended the powers of a king and blamed the attacks of the Revolution on the English people. Salmasius studied at Paris 1604-06 and at Heidelberg 1606-09. During his years at Heidelberg he discovered the Palatine manuscript of the Greek Anthology. In 1610 his commentary on Solinus Polyhistor was published. His enormous learning especially in ancient languages- he was fluent in Hebrew Arabic Syriac Persian and Coptic as well as Greek and Latin- led to offers from several universities. In 1631 he became professor at Leiden and stayed there for the remainder of his life except for one year 1650-51 at the Swedish court where he was a guest due to the fame his Defensio Regia pro Carolo I had brought him. He returned to Leiden soon after the publication of Miltons reply Pro Populo Anglicano Defensio in 1651. [B. & A. Elzevir] hardcover
