This spiritual endorsement not only bolsters Henry’s resolve but also rallies public support, creating a collective sense of purpose.

Thomas Becket (also known as Saint Thomas of Canterbury, Thomas of London) was Archbishop of Canterbury from 1162 until his murder in 1170.After the murder of Archbishop Thomas Becket at the cathedral in 1170, Canterbury became one of the most notable towns in Europe, as pilgrims from all parts of Christendom came to visit his shrine.[12] This pilgrimage provided the framework for Geoffrey Chaucer's 14th-century collection of stories, The Canterbury Tales.
Beckett's predecessor as Archbishop of Canterbury was Theobald of Bec, who entrusted Beckett with a number of important diplomatic missions to Rome. He also sent him to study Canon Law in Bologna in Italy, and Auxerre in France, before making him Archdeacon of Canterbury in 1154. Following this, Beckett's offices included a number of benefices, prebends at Lincoln and St. Paul's Cathedrals, and the office of Provost of Beverley. He was so good at these jobs, and so efficient, that when the office of Lord Chancellor became vacant, Theobald recommended him as Lord Chancellor to King Henry II- the King was glad to welcome him into his new job.
