.
The new society of the See also:Jesuits, as being the fore-runners of See also:Antichrist, also met with his violent opposition; and he was not grateful to them when, after attending the See also:council of See also:Trent in 1545, he was sent, by their See also:influence, in 1552, as See also:bishop of the far-off see of the Canaries
