Excerpt from Cranmer: An Historical Study
It is time that a reaction should set in. And that a juster opinion of this great English Churchman should prevail. As a matter of fact. Cranmer was a man born, as it were, out of due time. He had to fill a very trying, and ofttimes a very thankless. Position, and even his detractors have reluctantly admitted that he played hi part to the best of his ability under circumstances of almost incredible dilfi culty. A man of studious, retiring, and academic habits, he was suddenly thrust out into the burly burly of the most strenuous, ecclesiastical-national life. He was forced to play a part that was entirely distasteful to his temperament. Cranmer never was. Never could have oeen, a great, big, bold, world defying man like Luther. He was not a daring and outspoken truth~champion like Knox. He was not of adamantine native strength, uncompromising in his dogmatic position, like Calvin. He was of less masterful and imperious mould. But manfully and earnestly, here a little and there a little, not with out occasional trips and falls, he did what he could in the times in which God placed him. With the material God had built him of.
