  • Ambrose Rookwood (c. 1578 – 31 January 1606) was a member of the failed 1605 Gunpowder Plot, a conspiracy to replace the Protestant King James I with a Catholic sovereign. Rookwood was born into a wealthy family of Catholic recusants, and educated by Jesuits in Flanders. His older brother became a Franciscan, and his two younger brothers were ordained as Catholic priests. Rookwood became a horse-breeder. He married the Catholic Elizabeth Tyrwhitt, and had at least two sons. He was enlisted into the plot in September 1605 by Robert Catesby, a religious zealot whose impatience with James' treatment of English Catholics had grown so severe that he conspired to blow up the House of Lords with gunpowder, killing the king and much of the Protestant hierarchy. With the other conspirators he had recruited, Catesby also planned to incite a rebellion in the Midlands, during which James's nine-year-old daughter Princess Elizabeth would be captured, and installed as titular queen. Rookwood's stable of fine horses was essential for the uprising to succeed. The explosion was planned to coincide with the State Opening of Parliament on 5 November 1605, but the man left in charge of the gunpowder stored beneath the House of Lords, Guy Fawkes, was discovered there and arrested. Rookwood fled the city, and informed Catesby and the others of the plan's failure. Together the remaining conspirators rode to Holbeche House in Staffordshire, where on 8 November they were attacked by the pursuing Sheriff of Worcester and his men. Catesby was killed, but Rookwood survived, and was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Rookwood and the survivors were arraigned on 27 January 1606 in Westminster Hall. Pleading not guilty, he claimed to have loved Catesby "above any worldly man". He was convicted; his request for mercy was ignored, and he was hanged, drawn and quartered on 31 January, in the Old Palace Yard at Westminster. (en)

  • Ambrose Rookwood, född cirka 1578, död 31 januari 1606 i London, var en av de katolska konspiratörerna som försökte lönnmörda Jakob I av England genom att spränga det engelska överhuset i Westminsterpalatset, i vad som kallas för krutkonspirationen 1605. Rookwood värvades till konspirationen sent i september 1605. Familjen Rookwood var välbärgade och ståndaktiga katoliker och de sågs som bråkmakare av myndigheterna. Båda Rookwoods föräldrar och en av hans kusiner hade varit fängslade för sin tro och Rookwood själv blev åtalad av samma anledning i februari 1605. Rookwood har av jesuiten Oswald Tesimond beskrivits som "välbyggd och stilig, om något kort", vilket han kompenserade för genom att klä sig på ett extravagant sätt. Rookwood gick med i konspirationen efter att han hade kontaktats av Robert Catesby, Thomas Wintour och John Wright. När Rookwood, den 5 november 1605, fick reda på att Guy Fawkes hade misslyckats med sin del av planerna och även blivit gripen flydde han tillsammans med flera av de andra konspiratörerna till Holbeche House, på gränsen till Staffordshire. På morgonen den 8 november anlände Richard Walsh, som var High Sheriff of Worcestershire, tillsammans med en styrka på omkring tvåhundra man till Holbeche House. En eldstrid bröt ut och Rookwood, tillsammans med Thomas Wintour och John Grant, sårades och greps omedelbart därefter. Vid rättegången som hölls mot de överlevande konspiratörerna den 27 januari 1606 blev det en fällande dom för högförräderi för samtliga. Tillsammans med några av de andra konspiratörerna avrättades Rookwood den 31 januari 1606 på Old Palace Yard i Westminster genom hängning, dragning och fyrdelning. (sv)

dbp:quote
  • Then did he acknowledge his offence to be so heinous, that he justly deserved the indignation of the King, and of the Lords, and the hatred of the whole Common-wealth, yet could he not despair of Mercy at the hand of a Prince, so abounding in Grace and Mercy : And the rather, because his offence, though it were incapable of any excuse, yet not altogether incapable of some extenuation, in that he had been neither Author nor Actor, but onely perswaded and drawn in by Catesby, whom he loved above any worldly man : and that he had concealed it, not for any malice to the Person of the King, or of the State, or for any ambitious respect of his own, but onely drawn with the tender respect, and the faithful and dear affection he bore to Mr. Catesby his Friend, whom he esteemed more dear than any thing else in the world. And this mercy he desired not for any fear of the image of death, but for grief that so shameful a Death should leave so perpetual a blemish and blot unto all Ages upon his Name and Blood. But howsoever that this was his first Offence, yet he humbly submitted himself to the Mercy of the King, and prayed, that the King would herein imitate God, who sometimes doth punish corporaliter, non-mortaliter ; corporally, yet not mortally.
