Theletter was written and subscribed by all three (1563). In it Granvella was represented as the prime cause of all the disordersin the Netherlands. So long as the highest power should be entrusted tohim it would, they declared, be impossible for them to serve the nationand king effectually; on the other hand, all would revert to its formertranquillity, all opposition be discontinued, and the government regainthe affections of the people as soon as his majesty should be pleased toremove this ma...n from the helm of the state. In that case, they added, neither exertion nor zeal would be wanting on their part to maintain inthese countries the dignity of the king and the purity of the faith, which was no less sacred to them than to the cardinal, Granvella.
