On his return he was elected See also:provost of King's College, and in See also:August 1529 was the means of conveying to the king See also:Cranmer's historic See also:advice that he should apply to the See also:universities of See also:Europe rather than to the See also:pope

In 1535-1536 he was sent to See also:Germany to discuss the basis of a See also:political and theological understanding with the Lutheran princes and divines, and had several interviews with See also:Luther, who could not be persuaded of the See also:justice of Henry VIII.'s See also:divorce
