paths. Yes, gentlemen,’ he continued, raising his voice and glancing across Østrig Fodboldtrøjer the table at some of the courtiers, ‘ye may sneer at words of piety, but I Portugal Børn say that it is you and those like you who will bring down God’s anger upon this army.’
‘And I say so too,’ cried another sectary fiercely.
‘And I,’ ‘And I,’ shouted several, with Saxon, I think, among them.
‘Is it your wish, your Majesty, that we should be insulted at your very council board?’ cried one of the courtiers, springing to his feet with a flushed face. ‘How long are we to be subject to this insolence because we have the religion of a gentleman, and prefer to practise it in the privacy of our hearts rather than at the street corners with these pharisees?’
‘Speak not against God’s saints,’ Honduras Fodboldtrøjer cried Inter Milan Børn Fodboldtrøjer a Puritan, in a loud stern voice. ‘There is a voice within me which tells me that it were better to strike thee dead — yea, even in the presence of the King — than to allow Mali Fodboldtrøjer thee to revile those who have been born again.’
Several had sprung to their feet on either side. Hands were laid upon sword-hilts, and glances as stern and as deadly as rapier thrusts were flashing backwards and Turkey Fodboldtrøjer forwards; but the more neutral and reasonable members of the council FC Schalke 04 Trøjer succeeded in restoring peace, and in persuading the Kroatien Fodboldtrøjer angry disputants to resume their seats.
‘How now, gentlemen?’ cried the King, his face dark with anger, when silence was at last restored. ‘Is this the extent of my authority that ye should babble and brawl as though my council-chamber were a Fleet Street pot-house? Is this your respect for my person? I tell ye that I would forfeit my just claims for ever, and return to Holland, or devote my sword to the cause of Christianity against the Turk, rather than submit to such indignity. If any man he proved to have stirred up strife amongst the soldiers or commonalty on the Seattle Sounders score of religion I shall know how to deal with him. Let each preach Real Betis Fodboldtrøjer to his own, but let him not interfere with the flock of his neighbour. As to you, Mr. Bramwell, and you, Mr. Joyce, and you also, Sir Henry Nuttall, we shall hold ye excused from attending these meetings until ye have further notice from us. Ye may now separate, each to your quarters, and tomorrow morning we shall, with the blessing of God, start for the north to see what luck may await our enterprise in those Naisten Espanja Pelipaidat parts.’
The King bowed as a sign that the formal meeting was over, and taking Lord Grey aside, he conversed with him anxiously in a recess. The courtiers, who numbered in their party several English and foreign gentlemen, who had come over together with some Devonshire and Somerset country squires, swaggered out of the room in a body, with much clinking of spurs and clanking of swords. The Puritans drew gravely together and followed after them, walking not with demure and downcast looks, as was their common use, but with grim PJS Miehet Maine faces and knitted brows, as the Jews of old may have appeared when, ‘To your tents, O Israel!’ was still ringing in their ears.
