Excerpt from Documents Relating to the Foundation of the Chapter of Winchester: A. D., 1541-1547

B(4) of Hospitals in London (5) the establishment of Regius Professorships at Oxford and Cambridge, and of Trinity College in the latter university; (6) bursaries for the sup port of Leland and other learned youths in foreign parts and (7) pensions for extruded Monks and Nuns. It is clear from this enumeration that there was much that would tend towards the encouragement of learning and the king in the Act dealing with the subject says definitely that he is doing it, in order that God's word might be better set forth, children brought up in learning, clerks nourished in the Universities, Readers in Greek, Hebrew and Latin, to have good Stipends. In the Statutes for Winchester Cathedral he also lays it down that he is ordering the dis solution of St. Swithun's Monastery, that where ignorance and superstition used to reign the sincere worship of God may flourish, and the gospel be diligently preached in its purity and also that, to the advancement of the Christian Faith and of piety, the youth of the realm may be educated in good letters the same is reaffirmed in the Letters Patent, in which the king desires that youth may be liberally instructed in letters. Cranmer also expressed his strong desire that the Cathedrals should be converted into Theological Colleges, with Readers in Divinity, Hebrew, and Greek, and a body of students.
