““Mary summoned a meeting of Parliament to undertake the work or reform, and they went about the task between October 5 and December 6, 1553. Legally at least, England was once again Catholic. Protestant services were banned, and married priests were removed from their positions as the old order was restored. Of course, this had an important effect on the Protestant leadership; many of them were arrested for treason or sedition as the reformed laws turned their religious practices into crimes against the crown.””
