From 1603 to 1642 the struggle went on in Parliament. The WelshMembers nearly all supported the king, and the Welsh people followedthe Welsh gentry in strong loyalty. The most famous Welshman of theperiod was John Williams, who became Archbishop of York and LordKeeper.

But the king did not quite trust him, and theParliament almost despised him; and this happens often to wise menwho get between two angry parties.
