Admonition to the Parliament

Admonition to the Parliament

Admonition to the Parliament, 1572. A puritan manifesto, composed by John Field and others, arguing against the authority of bishops and urging a presbyterian church government. It was not presented to Parliament but was published in June 1572 after a puritan bill had been abandoned, when the House was informed that the queen ‘utterly misliketh it’. An Answer to the Admonition was offered by John Whitgift, future archbishop of Canterbury.
