Hugh Latimer, a farmer’s son from Leicestershire who rose through Cambridge to become a bishop, preached these sermons as the English Reformation was taking shape. In the famous Cambridge Christmas sermons he deals out a ‘card’ of Christ’s rule for his hearers to play, and he also expounds the parable of the king who made a marriage for his son. Henry Morley’s introduction sketches his life.
