It is clear from this that Norfolk was now gravely alarmed at the relig^ious situation created by Anne. HENRY'S DEFIANCE 191 it would be as difficult for him to obtain a divorce in legal form in England as in Rome itself. More was made to feel that his position was an im- possible one, and retired when Parliament was prorogued in May; and Gardiner ...had a con- venient attack of gout, which kept him away from Court until the King found he could not conduct foreign affairs without him and brought him back. In the meanwhile Katharine neglected the opportunities offered to her of combining all these powerful elements in her favour. Nobles, clergy, and people were almost universally on her side : Anne was cordially hated, and had no friends but the few religious reformers who hoped by her means to force the King ever further away from the Papacy ; and yet the Queen continued to appeal to Rome and the Emperor, against whom English patriotic feeling might be raised by Anne's few friends.
