Likewise, Byrd showed that it was possible to outstep the ostensible boundaries for plainsong writing by imbuing it with a passion (perhaps a bit cerebral by Romantic standards, but potent passion nevertheless) that stemmed from his religious frustration as a staunch Roman Catholic in Anglican England.
