If the godly thought that such popish remnants would be swept away under Elizabeth’s successor, they had a rude awakening. James retained ceremonialism, and from 1617, when Lancelot Andrewes became dean of the chapel, actively encouraged the renewal and development of Whitehall and later Greenwich, providing schemes of wall-paintings with figures and reintroducing the silver crucifix.43 His most dramatic gesture was his refitting of the Chapel Royal at Holyrood ahead of his 1617 visit: organs, stalls, and freestanding statues of the apostles and evangelists were prepared in London and shipped north. The horrified Scottish Church protested, and James conceded just so far as to exclude the ‘idolatrous’ carvings, while maintaining the rest of his scheme.44 When in 1624 the Commons accused Harsnett, bishop of Norwich, of countenancing images, the king was dismissive: the charge of idolatry involved ‘nothing but the pictures of the Apostles and such like as I have in myne owne chappell’.4-Oxford History of Anglicanism, vol 1, pg.195
