Printed in Antwerp by a fugitive and smuggled into England, where owning it was heresy, this book reached Henry VIII through Anne Boleyn, who put her own copy into his hands and let him find the argument he wanted: that a king answers to God alone and to nobody in Rome. Tyndale wanted something larger than a flattered king.
Prosperity is a right curse, and a thing that God giveth to his enemies.
