On July 23rd 1637 Jenny Geddes threw a stool at the Dean of St. Giles Cathedral, shouting "Dost thou say Mass in my lug?", and so began the movement to the Covenant.

When James I came to the English throne and united the Kingdoms of Scotland and England, he wanted to unite the churches too. But the Scots reformation had run much deeper than the English, which still retained many Catholic customs, so the Scots were wary of any religious practices imported from England. James I backed off as a result, but his son, Charles I, decided to plough ahead with the religious unification. In 1635 Charles issued a warrant declaring his power over the Church of Scotland, including that they would be issued with a new book of liturgy to be read at services.

This new work, The Booke of Common Prayer, was known as Laud’s Liturgy after Charles’s then Archbishop of Canterbury William Laud, but it was actually written by a group of Scottish Bishops. Nonetheless, sour rumours abounded about the new book, which after some delay was commanded by the king to be read for the first time in churches in Scotland on Sunday, 23rd July 1637.

The first reading of Laud’s Liturgy on that day was by the Dean of Edinburgh, John Hanna, at St Giles on the Royal Mile. As legend has it, a woman called Jenny Geddes was at the service sitting on a wooden stool. Jeers came from the crowd when Hanna started to read from the new book, and Jenny picked up her stool and threw it at Hanna’s head, shouting “Deil colic the wame o’ ye! Out thou false thief! Dost thou say the mass at my lug?” (“The devil give a colic to your stomach! Out you false thief! Dare you say the mass at my ear?”). Others joined in with the stool throwing, so that the whole event was later called “The Casting o’ the Stules”, and the Dean and other officials had to flee. Stones were thrown at the Cathedral’s windows, and the streets were chaos.

The significance of what Geddes did is that the rioting that started that day grew, and opposition to the Anglicisation of the Church of Scotland grew with it. The next year, the National Covenant was signed by many Scottish nobleman, known as the Covenanters, railing against Charles I’s power. The Bishops’ War was the next consequence, eventually devolving into the Wars of the Three Kingdoms and the English Civil War. Jenny Geddes’s stool was, therefore, the first act of the revolutionary tumult affecting much of the 17th century. She’s a highly celebrated symbol of Scots independence; there’s even a brass plaque in St. Giles’ commemorating her.

Historians nowadays generally dismiss this story, but Jenny crops up tim and time again, the first time in print in 1661 in our country's first real newspaper the Mercurius Caledonius which only ran for 11 issues. She pops up from time to tim in other 17th century stories, and in the 18th century the English writer and spy also mentions her. Lastly when Robert Burns was in Edinburgh before his tour on The Highlands and Scottish Borders he needed a horse and bought a mare in the city for the princely sum of “over £4 Sterling”. When once, later, this loving and faithful horse unseated him, Burns wrote that she “trode over me with such cautious reverence, that matters were not so bad as might well have been expected”. And the name that Burns gave his horse? Jenny Geddes. I think there must be at least some truth in the story.

I have to add that the three legged stool on display in the Kirk is highly unlikely to have been the one Geddes threw, it is a different type from the one used back in the day, the National Museum have a stool, they say was Jenny's, as seen in the pics and drawings.

Hello, I'd love to join your game! My initials - SM(sag sun and rising, aquarius moon) my questions are what's coming to me and my next romantic partner

Your exchange :

What is coming to you soon : the fool and the emprres - well this is a lovely energy. It reminds me of summer vacation, not in a literal sense but becouse u can have fun and just enjoy and relax /splurge. Anyway, what's coming to you is freedom I feel like, a period od carelessnes and fun moments, space and time for you to explore yourself more, possibly new endeavors and starting new projects. With the emtpess, i think money and elevated status, recognition are on the way. Seems like you'll be having a hot girl summer dear.

Your next partner - the judgment, queen of Wands and king of swords. If astro placements are important to you thees3 cards signify - aquarius, aries energy and pluto. God this is some powerful person. So your fp is very strong willed, someone who has a strong mind and sharp logic, someone confident af who knows what he wants and how to bet it. Big dick energy not gonna lie. I think he has been brought a bit rough and has some deep past that he won't share easily, it's like the sharpness od the world had taught him to act more so with his logic rather emotion, yet he is mature and i believe you will grow a lot with this man. He's gonna be protective of you, and match your vibe. Idk how dominant you consider yourself, but this person will take the lead in the relationship, not in a bad way. He's the type of person to freeze the room and turn heads, to challenge people and see thru their biullshit. Probably older then you. For physical features, - tall and muscular /lean, strong facial features, lighter eyes and thick, hair with lots of volumen. His stule can be profesional or street style with mostly black, blue Grey tones

Hope it resonates ❣️❣️

thank you so much for your patience @regaliadivina and thank you for the exchange!

normally i allow only one question, but since it is my last game i'll allow two! and my summer vacation has started since i graduated college! but the hot girl summer is something i am very, very open to!

and with the future partner thing, that is basically my energy i might as well date myself. i can be a dominant person but i can allow someone to take the lead but if they're over-bearing i wont be able to do that. it's the aries venus in me. thank you so much for the exchange!

question one - what is coming to you

my answer - what i first got that you might reconcile with an ex? you might have an erotic era with that person. it might not even be an ex but i just got a very familiar feeling with you and this person. it could even be someone you're talking to currently. and for this next thing, it could go down two ways, you could get a job that'll give you so much money or even get a sugar dad; or just someone who gives you money. though this could come in this month or the current months that will be coming soon.

question two - your next future partner

my answer - im getting much positive vibes from this person, or this future partner of yours could be a partier. they are someone who definitely likes to be in a positive place, they could've been someone who was a nihilist before but now they view life in a more better outlook. on the other hand, they could be foreign? they could belong to a country that likes to party. they might like to dance a lot and like lift the mood if people feel negative or down. there is something bimbo/himbo-ish about them, but that part of themselves could make you laugh. there's big sag/jupiter/9h energy from this person. but im also getting mercury/gemini and not that much of a 3h placement because their energy is so hyper and giddy. im also getting a certain dance they do to make you laugh and they could like the colour orange/yellow? they could have tanned skin and dark hair. they look like they could come from a country like mexico or brazil. countries like that. when you first meet them you might think their personality is very dimensional like there's nothing else but jokester energy to them. but their proper solid side, they dont show it to everyone.
