Section A
Answer Question 01.
Source A
From a report to the Duke of Tuscany from his Ambassador in London, April 1625. The
report describes the Duke of Buckingham’s relationship with the new king, Charles I.
The Duke of Buckingham, although deeply grieved by the loss of James, the late King,
his ever generous master, may feel assured that the goodwill and favour of the new King,
Charles, will be extended to him, to a greater degree, if that be possible. This is already
shown by the clearest evidence. On the evening of Charles’ proclamation as King, as he
went to London, in his carriage was Buckingham. Buckingham is with his Majesty 5
Charles all day. He sleeps in a room next to the royal bedchamber and has been
confirmed by Charles in all his offices, which are numerous and of the highest
importance. He has also been made Gentleman of the Bedchamber and has received
the golden key, the emblem of his office, so that he can, whenever he pleases, and at
any hour, enter that chamber as well as any other part of the palace occupied by 10
His Majesty. In short, nothing is done by the new King without Buckingham.
Source B
From six questions presented to the House of Commons by Samuel Turner, March 1626.
Turner was an opponent of Buckingham.
1. Is the Duke of Buckingham, being Lord High Admiral, not the cause of the loss of the
King’s influence at sea?
2. Are the unreasonable, exorbitant, and immense gifts of money and land bestowed on
the Duke and his family, not the cause of limiting the King’s revenue?
3. Is the multiplicity of offices conferred upon the Duke, and others depending upon him, 5
not the cause of the evil government of this kingdom?
4. Are not recusants increased by reason of the Duke’s mother and father-in-law being
known papists?
5. Are not the sale of honours, offices and places of judges, and ecclesiastical livings
and promotions, a scandal and hurt to the kingdom through the same Duke? 10
6. Is the Duke’s staying at home, being Lord High Admiral of the fleet and General of the
land army, not the cause of the failure at Cadiz; and did he give good direction for that
attack on Cadiz?
