Siguió siendo sensible a las necesidades del pueblo, pues a diario recorría las callejuelas de Londres para informarse de la vida de los pobres. Aun siendo canciller, tenía por diaria costumbre entrar en la corte de los jueces en Westminster, donde se encontraba su padre, se arrodillaba ante él y pedía su bendición.") |

Sir Thomas devoted himself to his duties with utmost zeal until Henry, desirous of but lacking a male heir to the throne, declared his marriage to Catherine of Aragon null and announced his intent to marry Ann Boleyn. Since the [[divorce]] was without Papal approval and directly opposed to the laws of the Church, More refused to support the king’s decision. He resigned his office and retired to Chelsea where, greatly concerned with the heresies of Luther’s revolt, he continued his writings in defense of the Catholic faith. | Sir Thomas devoted himself to his duties with utmost zeal until Henry, desirous of but lacking a male heir to the throne, declared his marriage to Catherine of Aragon null and announced his intent to marry Ann Boleyn.
