The King and Laud, who had been promised the primacy on the death of
Archbishop Abbot, were embarked together on an evil course. Laud
believed in the Divine Right of Kings, and he was a man totally devoid
of suavity of manner and of breadth of mind. He would compel all men to
think as he thought, and act as he chose. That wheat and tares should
grow together till the harvest was a doctrine of the Gospel he could not
comprehend, and his energies and power were directed towards the
forcible uprooting of the tares in the field of the Church, and the
tares were the heterodox Puritans. Between him and the King they would
allow no liberty to men either in their bodies and goods, or in their
souls and consciences. That there should be crabbed and crooked sticks
Laud would not allow; all must be clean and straight as willow wands. To
the civil despotism alone as exercised by Charles, the English people
might possibly have submitted for some time longer, for the ship-money
had produced the desired effect; but the scourge of Laud lashed them to
fury. And Noye was the scourge Laud employed in the Star Chamber. Hammon
Le Strange, in his _Life of King Charles I_, says that Noye became
of soap they should make, he granted to a company a charter according 
 to it the single prerogative to draw and to deal soap. The patent have 
 a proviso in it permitting every soap - kettle then exercising his trade 
 in England to become a member of the chartered caller; and that 
 precious turncoat, Noye, who devise the project, considered that in 
 this direction he had evaded the letter of the law, as the Act of Parliament 
 forbidding monopolies had been directed against person and 
 against some two or three monopolists favoured by the Court. These 
 incorporated soap - kettle, as part of their bargains, received powers 
 to appoint seeker; and they exercised a sort of inquisition over

 The King and Laud, who had been promised the primacy on the death of

 believed in the Divine Right of Kings, and he was a world wholly barren

 grow together till the harvest was a doctrine of the Gospel he could not

 forcible uprooting of the tares in the field of the Church, and the 
 tare were the heterodox Puritans. Between him and the King they would 
 give up no liberty to men either in their bodies and goods, or in their 
 souls and conscience. That there should be crabbed and crooked sticks 
 Laud would not leave; all must be clean and straight as willow wands. To 
 the civil despotism entirely as exercised by Charles, the English people 
 might possibly have submitted for some time longer, for the ship - money 
 had produced the desire effect; but the bane of Laud lashed them to 
 craze. And Noye was the scourge Laud hire in the Star Chamber. Hammon
