	Querre-Muhau: Sir Philip Sidney and the New World
		Sidney's chief Huguenot meeting was of course with Hubert Languet.(14) His adoption by the older bachelor as a spiritual son marks, one might say, the philosophical turning-point of Sidney's life.
		Sidney's was not a vulgar and foolish gold fever, even at the height of the Frobisher excitement and his own financial troubles; and such persons as Ambrose and Anne Dudley, Sir Henry and Lady Mary Sidney, and Edward Dyer were not exactly frivolous either.
		Sidney, ironically, had come closest to participation in a colony through a scheme devised in part for Catholics - a scheme unthinkable in Du Plessis's France where the Catholics were the power structure, but a logical adaptation for a beleaguered Protestant nation where Catholics were, or were feared to be, the Fifth Column.

		James Montagu, the first Sidney master, was James 1's editor and, like his successor but one, Samuel Ward, one of the translators of the Authorised Bible of 1611, perhaps the key text in the growth of modern English religion and literature and thus of national identity.
