To the wife of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The Queen did not approve of married clergy. Madam, I may not call you; mistress, I am shamed to call you; and so I know not what to call you; but howsoever, I thank you.

How intriguing! This historical excerpt reveals the complex dynamics of relationships and societal norms during that time. The use of language to navigate such delicate matters is truly fascinating.

Thank you for your message. Bishop Laud's wife, you have my gratitude. Your actions may be unconventional, but they are appreciated. Keep up the good work.
