Hall and See also:proctor. According to See also:Anthony See also:Wood, he was appointed to a canonry at See also:York in or about 1558; he therefore had already entered the clerical See also:state by receiving the See also:tonsure. On the See also:accession of See also:Elizabeth, he was deprived upon refusing the See also:oath of supremacy, but remained in the university until 1561. His known opposition to the new learning in See also:religion giving much offence, he escaped from See also:England and went to See also:Louvain, where were gathered many students who had See also:left the English See also:universities for See also:conscience' See also:sake. Here he continued his theological studies and began to write controversial See also:treatises. In 1562, on See also:account of See also:health, he returned secretly to Lancashire and did much, by exhortation and private meetings, to restrain those Catholics who attended the new services in See also:- ORDER

order to See also:save their See also:property from See also:confiscation. His presence being known to the See also:government, he left Lancashire and retired to the neighbourhood of Oxford, which he frequently visited, and where he influenced many of the students. After See also:writing a See also:treatise in See also:defence of the priestly See also:power to remit sins, he was obliged to leave and retired to See also:Norfolk, leaving England soon after in 1565. He returned to See also:Flanders, was ordained at See also:Malines, and began to lecture in See also:theology at the See also:Benedictine college in that See also:city. In 1567 he went to See also:Rome for the first See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.

time, and there began his See also:plan for establishing a college where English students could live together and finish their theological course. The See also:idea subsequently See also:developed into the establishing of a missionary college, or See also:seminary, to keep up a See also:supply of priests for England as See also:long as the See also:country remained separated from the See also:Holy See. With the help of See also:friends, and notably of the Benedictine abbots of the neighbouring monasteries, a college was established at See also:Douai (See also:September 29, 1568); and here Allen was joined by many of the English exiles. This college, the first of the seminaries ordered by the See also:council of See also:Trent, received the papal approval shortly after its See also:establishment; the See also:- KING

Gregory XIII. in 1595 granted him a monthly See also:pension of See also:loo goldencrowns, and, as the number of students had now risen to one See also:hundred and twenty, summoned him to Rome to undertake the establishing of a similar college in the papal city. By Allen's See also:advice, the old English See also:hospice was turned into a seminary and See also:Jesuits were placed there to help Dr See also:Maurice Clennock, the See also:rector. The See also:pope appointed Allen to a canonry in Courtrai and sent him back to Douai (See also:July 1576); but here he had to See also:face a new difficulty. Besides the reported plots to assassinate him by agents of the English government, the insurgents against Spain, urged on by Elizabeth's emissaries, expelled the students from Douai as being partisans of the enemy (See also:March 1578). Allen moved his establishment to See also:Reims under the protection of the See also:house of See also:Guise; and it was here that the English See also:translation of the Scriptures, known as the Douai Version, was begun under his direction (see See also:BIBLE, ENGLISH). In 1577 he began a See also:correspondence with See also:Robert See also:Parsons (q.v.), the Jesuit, an intimacy that was fraught with disaster. He was summoned again to Rome in 1579 to quell the first of the many disturbances that befell the English college under the Jesuit See also:influence. Brought now into See also:personal contact with Parsons, Allen See also:fell completely under the dominating See also:personality of the redoubtable Jesuit, and gave himself up entirely to his influence. He arranged that the Society should take over the English college at Rome and should begin the Jesuit See also:mission to England (158o). This See also:short-sighted policy was the cause of much See also:grave trouble in the near future. Returning to Reims he began to take a See also:part in all the See also:political intrigues which Parsons' fertile See also:brain had hatched for the See also:pro-See also:motion of the See also:Spanish See also:interest in England. Allen's political career See also:dates from this See also:period. Parsons had already intended to remove Allen from the seminary at Reims, and for this purpose, as far back as the 6th of See also:April 1581, had recommended him to See also:- PHILIP
- PHILIP (Gr.'FiXtrsro , fond of horses, from dn)^eiv, to love, and limos, horse; Lat. Philip pus, whence e.g. M. H. Ger. Philippes, Dutch Filips, and, with dropping of the final s, It. Filippo, Fr. Philippe, Ger. Philipp, Sp. Felipe)

- PHILIP, KING (c. 1639-1676)
- PHILIP, LANOGRAVE OF HESSE (1504-1567)
Philip II. to be promoted to the cardinalate. In furtherance of the intrigues, Allen and Parsons went to Rome again in 1585 and there Allen was kept for the See also:rest of his See also:life. In 1587, during the time that he was being skilfully played with by Philip's agents, he wrote, helped by Parsons, a shameless defence of a shameful See also:deed. See also:Sir William See also:Stanley, an English officer, had surrendered See also:Deventer to the Spaniards; and Allen wrote a See also:book in defence of Stanley, saying that all Englishmen were See also:bound, under See also:pain of damnation, to follow the traitorous example, as Elizabeth was no lawful See also:queen. He shared in all the projects for the invasion of England, and was to have been See also:archbishop of See also:Canterbury and See also:lord See also:chancellor had they succeeded. Representing in reality only his own party, Allen had on the See also:continent the position of the See also:head of the See also:Roman Catholics of England; and as such, just after the See also:death of Mary, queen of Scots, he wrote to Philip II. (March 19, 1587) to exhort him to undertake the enterprise against England, and declared that the Catholics there were clamouring for the king to come and punish " this woman, hated by See also:God and See also:man." After much negotiation, he was made cardinal by See also:Sixtus V. on the 7th of See also:August 1587, nominally to supply the loss of the queen of See also:Scotland, but in reality to ensure the success of the See also:Armada. On his promotion Allen wrote to Reims that he owed the See also:hat, under God, to Parsons. One of his first acts was to issue, under his own name, two violent See also:works for the purpose of inciting the Catholics of England to rise against Elizabeth: " The See also:Declaration of the See also:Sentence of Sixtus V." a See also:broadside, and a book, An Admonition to the See also:nobility and See also:people of England (See also:Antwerp, 1588). On the failure of the Armada, Philip, to get rid of the burthen of supporting Allen as a cardinal, nominated him to the archbishopric of Malines, but the canonical See also:appointment was never made. Gregory XIV. made him librarian at the Vatican; and he served on the See also:commission for the revision of the See also:Vulgate. He took part in four conclaves, but never had any real influence after the failure of the Armada. Before his death, which took See also:place in Rome on the 16th of See also:October 1594, he found reasons to See also:change his mind concerning the See also:wisdom of the Jesuit politics in Rome and England, and would have tried to curb their activities, had he been spared. The rift became so See also:great that ten years after his death, Agazzari could write to Parsons: " So long as Allen walked in this See also:matter (the See also:- SCHEME (Lat. schema, Gr. oxfjya, figure, form, from the root axe, seen in exeiv, to have, hold, to be of such shape, form, &c.)
scheme for England) in See also:union with and fidelity to the See also:Company, as he used to do, God preserved
ALLEN
him, prospered and exalted him; but when he began to leave this path, in a manner, the threads of his plans and life were cut short together." As a cardinal Allen had lived in poverty and he died in See also:debt.
While we cannot withhold a See also:tribute of respect from Allen for his zeal and earnestness, and recognize that his See also:foundation at Douai survives to-See also:day in the two See also:Catholic colleges at Ushaw and See also:Ware, it is impossible to deny that he injured the See also:work with which his name will ever be associated, by his disastrous intercourse with See also:Father Parsons. Known as a sharer in that plotter's schemes, he gave a reasonable pretext to Elizabeth's government for regarding the seminaries as hotbeds of See also:sedition. That they were not so is abundantly proved. The superiors kept their political actions See also:secret from the students, and would not allow such matters even to be talked about or treated as theoretical abstractions in the See also:schools. Dr See also:Barrett, writing (April 14, 1583) to Parsons, makes open complaint of Allen's secrecy and refusal to communicate. How far Allen was really admitted to the full confidence of Parsons is a question; and his later attitude to the Society goes to prove that he at last realized that he had been tricked.
