In See also:June of the same See also:year he wrote a Latin poem on the See also:birth of the See also:young See also:prince James, whom he described as serenissimus princeps of See also:France and See also:England. The See also:French See also:court was offended, and he was confined for six months. He was released only through the intercession of See also:Queen See also:Mary of See also:Scotland and some of the See also:principal See also:nobility, and retired with his See also:- PUPIL (Lat. pupillus, orphan, minor, dim. of pupus, boy, allied to puer, from root pm- or peu-, to beget, cf.

time of the See also:massacre of St See also:Bartholomew at Paris, and lived concealed for seven months in a public-See also:house, the aged See also:master of which, in See also:reward for his charity to a heretic, was thrown from the roof. While in this
" See also:Sepulchre," he wrote his Latin poetical version of the See also:book of See also:Job, and his tragedy of See also:Herod in the same See also:language. In 1572 or 1573 he returned to Scotland, and became minister of See also:Paisley. In 1575 he was appointed by the General See also:Assembly one of the commissioners to See also:settle the See also:jurisdiction and policy of the See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

church; and the following year he was named, with See also:David See also:Lindsay, to See also:report their proceedings to the See also:earl of See also:Morton, then See also:regent. In 1576 his See also:appointment as See also:archbishop of St Andrews gave rise to a protracted conflict with the ,Presbyterian party in the Assembly. He had previously published a See also:catechism in Latin See also:verse dedicated to the See also:- KING

king, a See also:work highly approved even by his opponents, and also a Latin See also:translation of the Scottish See also:Confession of Faith.
In 1578 he submitted himself to the General Assembly, which procured him See also:peace for a little time, but next year fresh accusations were brought against him. He took See also:refuge in St Andrews See also:Castle, where " a See also:wise woman," See also:Alison See also:Pearson, who was ultimately burned for See also:witchcraft, cured him of a serious illness. In 1583 he went as James's See also:ambassador to the court of See also:Elizabeth, and is said to have behaved rather badly. On his return he took strong See also:parliamentary See also:measures against Presbyterians, and consequently, at a provincial See also:synod held at St Andrews in See also:April 1586, he was accused of See also:heresy and excommunicated, but at the next General Assembly the See also:sentence was remitted as illegal. In 1587 and 1588, however, fresh accusations were brought against him, and he was again excommunicated, though afterwards on the inducement of his old opponent, See also:Andrew See also:Melville, the sentence was again remitted. Meanwhile he had published the See also:Lamentations of See also:Jeremiah, and the book of See also:Revelation in Latin verse, which he dedicated to the king, complaining of his hard usage. But James was unmoved by his application, and granted the See also:revenue of his see to the See also:duke of See also:Lennox. For the See also:rest of his See also:life Adamson was supported by charity; he died in 1592. His recantation of See also:Episcopacy (1590) is probably See also:spurious. Adamson was a See also:man of many gifts, learned and eloquent, but with See also:grave defects of See also:character. His collected See also:works, prefaced by a fulsome See also:panegyric, in the course of which it is said that " he was a See also:miracle of nature, and rather seemed to be the immediate See also:production of See also:God Almighty than born of a woman," were produced by his son-in-See also:law, See also:- THOMAS
