How did cecil help the gunpowder plot?

Some people believe that Cecil wanted the plotters to be caught in the act of blowing up parliament. An anonymous letter was sent to Lord Monteagle (a Catholic) warning him to skip Parliament. This letter was kept for a week until Robert Cecil showed it to James I and they searched the cellars. A fortnight before Guy Fawkes was discovered, Cecil wrote to James I's servant saying this: “I spend my time in sowing so much seed as my poor wretched fingers can scatter, in such a season as may bring forth a plentiful harvest. I dare boldly say no shower or storm shall mar our harvest except it should come from beyond the middle region.” The plotters were from the Midlands ( middle regions).

Were the gunpowder plotters framed and why?

Some believe that the Catholics were framed by the King in the gunpowder plot because: - Guy Fawkes managed to get the 36 barrels of gunpowder very easily even though all gunpowder was kept in the Tower of London and controlled by the Government. No one even noticed they were missing! -The cellar was rented to the plotters by John Whynniard, a king's official and a friend of Cecil (who worked for the King and hated Catholics). -Lord Mounteagle, had a friend amongst the Catholics, and was delivered an anonymous letter by a disguised messenger on 26th October. The letter said the houses of Parliament would receive a 'big blow'. -Mounteagle showed the letter to the King the next day, who somehow immediately knew that it meant a gunpowder explosion. But strangely enough he took no action until the 4th November. -The King somehow knew where all the plotters were and surrounded them at Holbeach House- they did not resist arrest, some were shot dead. -The signature of Guy Fawkes when he signed the confession was different to his normal signature. This could of been because he'd been tortured or it was an imposter impersonating the signature- but you would have thought an imposter would know what the signature looked like. -An Italian visitor in 1605 said: 'Some hold it as certain that there has been foul play and that some of the government secretly spun a web to entangle these poor gentleman'. -John Whynniard died mysteriously on the 5th of November, The day of the meeting. -It also happened that the final result was exactly what the King (James I) and Cecil wanted!
