Petre served as a chaplain and adviser to James II of England (James II of England: more facts about this subject) and was an unpopular and galvanising presence at James's court.
James and Castlemaine continued to push for a bishop's position for Petre through 1687, and now requested that Petre be made a cardinal (cardinal: (Roman Catholic Church) one of a group of more than 100 prominent bishops in the Sacred College who advise the Pope and elect new Popes), but the pope steadily refused.

In 1543 Petre was knighted and was appointed a secretary of state; in 1345 he was sent as ambassador to the emperor Charles V. A very politic man, he retained his position under Edward VI.
The Petres have been consistently attached to the Roman Catholic faith, William Joseph, the I3th baron (1847-1893), being a priest of the Roman church, and the barony is still (1911) in existence.
One of the 1st barons grandsons was William Petre (1602167 7), who translated the Fios sanctorum of Pedro de Ribadeneira as Lives of the Saints (St Omer, 1699; London, 1730).

 [EMLS 8.2 (September 2002]: 6.1-39 Meet the Peters
Sir George Petre of Torbryan (the next village over from Ipplepen, where Otho Peter held land), was the son of another William Petre, a nephew to the royal secretary (who was likewise raised at Torbryan), and his wife Cecily, née Southcott, a full sister, close in years, to Otho's wife Frances.
Lord Petre not only bought Daniel within weeks of publication but was sufficiently au courant to refer to his purchase as "musophilos," singling out one of only two poems that were original to a volume of mostly reprints.
Lord Petre's emergence as a possible mediator is suggestive, especially because the murder and the Elegy's registration took place just after the holiday season, which Petre customarily celebrated by entertaining at home in Essex, or with kinsfolk in the West.
