There were many protests at his equation of "the Saviour of the world" with a "colonel of hussars" and his implicit assertion that Albert held "title-deeds to… divinity" (Anon, 1847h). It was clear his "fearful irreverence" – implying that "an earthly prince" visiting Liverpool had some link to "the awful coming of the Prince of Heaven and Earth to Judgment" – was something that "must be apparent to every reverent mind"; and, further, that a "piece of gross and rank blasphemy [was perpetrated by making the third Person of the Holy Trinity a type of Prince Albert".
