Henceforward the minority of James was disturbed by See also:constant quarrels between a See also:faction, generally favour-able to See also:England, under Angus, and the partisans of See also:France under Albany; while the queen-mother and the nobles struggled to gain and to regain See also:possession of the king's See also:person.

Henry VIII. was watching affairs in Scotland with an observant See also:eye, and other See also:European sovereigns were not indifferent to the possibility of a Scotch See also:alliance. In 1524, when Albany had retired to France, the See also:parliament declared that James was See also:fit to govern, but that he must be advised by his mother and a See also:council. This " erection " of James as king was mainly due to the efforts of Henry VIII. In 1526 Angus obtained See also:control of the king, and kept him in See also:close confinement until 1528, when James, escaping from See also:Edinburgh to See also:Stirling, put vigorous See also:measures in See also:execution against the earl, and compelled him to flee to England. In 1529 and 1530 the king made a strong effort to suppress his turbulent vassals in the See also:south of Scotland; and after several raids and See also:counter-raids negotiations for See also:peace with England were begun, and in May 1534 a treaty was signed. At 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, as on previous occasions, Henry VIII. wished James to marry his daughter See also:Mary, while other ladies had been suggested by the See also:emperor See also:Charles V.; but the Scottish king, preferring a See also:French See also:- BRIDE (a common Teutonic word, e.g..Goth. bruths, O.

bride, visited France, and in See also:January 1537 was married at See also:Paris to Madeleine, daughter of King See also:Francis I. Madeleine died soon after her arrival in Scotland, and in 1538 James made a much more important marriage, being See also:united to Mary (1515-1560), daughter of See also:Claude, duke of See also:Guise, and widow of See also:- LOUIS

Orleans, duke of See also:Longueville. It was this connexion, probably, which finally induced James to forsake his vacillating See also:foreign policy, and to range himself definitely among the enemies of England. In1536 he had refused to meet Henry VIII. at See also:York, and in the following See also:year had received the See also:gift of a cap and See also:sword from See also:Pope See also:Paul III., thus renouncing the friendship of his See also:uncle. Two plots to See also:murder the king were now discovered, and James also foiled the attempts of Henry VIII. to kidnap him. Although in 1540 the English king made another See also:attempt to win the sup-See also:port, or at least the See also:neutrality, of James for his religious policy, the relations between the two countries became very unfriendly, and in 1542 Henry sent an See also:army to invade Scotland. James was not slow to make See also:reprisals, but his nobles were angry or indifferent, and on the 25th of See also:November 1542 his forces were easily scattered at the rout of Solway See also:Moss. This See also:blow preyed upon the king's mind, and on the 14th of See also:December he died at See also:Falkland, having just heard of the See also:birth of his daughter. His two sons had died in See also:infancy, and his successor was his only legitimate See also:child, Mary. He See also:left several bastards, among them James Stewart, earl of See also:- MURRAY

Although possessing a weak constitution, which was further impaired by his irregular manner of See also:life, James showed See also:great vigour and See also:independence as a See also:sovereign, both in withstanding the machinations of his uncle, Henry VIII., and in opposing the See also:influence of the nobles. The persecutions to which heretics were exposed during this reign were due mainly to the excessive influence exercised by the ecclesiastics, especially by See also:David See also:Beaton, See also:archbishop of St See also:Andrews. The king's See also:habit of mingling with the peasantry secured for him a large amount of popularity, and probably led many to ascribe to him the authorship of poems describing scenes in See also:peasant life, Christis See also:Kirk on the Grene, The Gaberlunzie See also:Man and The See also:Jolly See also:Beggar. There is no See also:- PROOF (in M. Eng. preove, proeve, preve, &°c., from O. Fr . prueve, proeve, &c., mod. preuve, Late. Lat. proba, probate, to prove, to test the goodness of anything, probus, good)
proof that he was the author of any of these poems, but from expressions in the poems of See also:Sir David See also:Lindsay, who was on terms of intimacy with him, it appears that occasionally he wrote verses.
