The suspicion of papistry followed him; and orders were given for his See also:arrest. For some three months he eluded pursuit, hiding among See also:friends and occupying himself by See also:writing a See also:history of Ireland (first published in See also:Holinshed's See also:Chronicles), a superficial See also:work of no real value.

Allen (q.v.) and was reconciled to the See also:Roman Church. After being ordained sub-deacon, he went to See also:Rome and became a Jesuit in 1573, spending some years at Briinn, See also:Vienna and See also:Prague. In 158o the Jesuit See also:mission to See also:England was begun, and he accompanied See also:Robert See also:Parsons (q.v.) who, as See also:superior, was intended to counterbalance Campion's fervour and impetuous zeal. He entered England in the characteristic See also:guise of a See also:jewel See also:merchant, arrived in London on the 24th of See also:June 1580, and at once began to preach. His presence became known to the authorities and an indiscreet See also:declaration, " Campion See also:Brag," made the position more difficult. The See also:hue and cry was out against him; henceforth he led a hunted See also:life, See also:preaching and ministering to Catholics in See also:Berkshire, Oxford-See also:shire, See also:Northamptonshire and See also:Lancashire. During this See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O.

time he was writing his Decem Rationes, a rhetorical display of reasons against the See also:Anglican Church. The See also:book was printed in a private See also:press at Stonor See also:Park, See also:Henley, and 400 copies were found on the benches of St Mary's, Oxford, at the Commencement, on the 27th of June 1581. The sensation was immense, and the pursuit became keener. On his way to See also:Norfolk he stopped at Lyford in Berkshire, where he preached on the 14th of See also:July and the following See also:day, yielding to the foolish importunity of some pious See also:women. Here he was captured by a See also:spy and taken to London, bearing on his See also:hat a See also:paper with the inscription, " Campion, the Seditious Jesuit." Committed to the See also:Tower, he was examined in the presence of Elizabeth, who asked him if he acknowledged her to be really queen of England, and on his replying straightly in the affirmative, she made him offers, not only of life but of See also:wealth and dignities, on conditions which his conscience could not allow. He was kept a See also:long time in See also:prison, twice racked by See also:- ORDER
- ORDER (through Fr. ordre, for earlier ordene, from Lat. ordo, ordinis, rank, service, arrangement; the ultimate source is generally taken to be the root seen in Lat. oriri, rise, arise, begin; cf. " origin ")
- ORDER, HOLY
order of the See also:council, and every effort was made to shake his constancy. Despite the effect of a false rumour of retraction and a forged See also:confession, his adversaries in despair summoned him to four public conferences (1st, 18th, 23rd and 27th of See also:September), and although still suffering, and allowed neither time nor books for preparation, he See also:bore himself so easily and readily that he won the admiration of most of the See also:audience. Racked again on the 31st of See also:October, he was indicted at See also:Westminster that he with others had conspired at Rome and See also:Reims to raise a See also:sedition in the See also:realm and dethrone the queen. On the loth of See also:November he was brought in guilty before See also:Lord See also:Chief See also:Justice Wray; and in reply to him said: " If our See also:religion do make traitors we are worthy to be condemned; but otherwise are and have been true subjects as ever the queen had." He received the See also:sentence of the traitor's See also:death with the re Deum laudamus, and, after spending his last days in pious exercises, was led with two companions to See also:Tyburn (1st of See also:December 1581) and suffered the barbarous See also:penalty. Of all the Jesuit missionaries who suffered for their See also:allegiance to the See also:ancient religion, Campion stands the highest. His life and his aspirations were pure, his zeal true and his See also:loyalty unquestionable. He was beatified by See also:Leo XIII. in 1886..
An admirable See also:biography is to be found in See also:Richard See also:Simpson's Edmund Campion (1867); and a See also:complete See also:list of his See also:works in De Backer'sBibliotheque de la conpagnie de Jesus. (E.
