		The association of Protestant sectarianism (and its enforcement) with the practice of the English Court of Wards and the English penal laws against Catholic recusants, that is, shows the reader not just two similar forms of political repression but three manifestations of religious oppression.
		And like the use of torture and spying to control and expose the activities of Recusants especially, the penal efforts of the Court of Wards were often viewed by Englishmen of all sects, especially the lawyers with whom Donne was educated, and who were his friends, as violations of the Magna Carta itself.
		But equally significant is that this evidence shows that the association of English sectarian "idolatrie" and the machinations of the Court of Wards was not just an "idle" conceit for him.
