"With the taking of this oath of secrecy, the Gunpowder Plot proper was set in motion. From that day until Guy Fawkes's arrest in the early hours of 5 November 1605, it would be the quietly ticking accompaniment to the ongoing business of James's Council, to the Jesuit mission, to the thousand little ordinary actions of everyday existence up and down the country." -- Alice Hogge,
God's Secret Agents
