The Church of England in and of itself is a Protestant church. It split from the Catholic Church around 1526 under Henry VIII.
John Milton, wrote paradise lost in this same time period during the 1600's and his writing was actually very tuned to a protestant audience. It was regarded highly in England because the population was mainly Protestant. So no, I don't believe that England was under Catholic rule after the 1600's

Queen Elizabeth I played a significant role in the Protestant Reformation in England. She established the Church of England, which separated from the authority of the Pope and embraced Protestant beliefs. Elizabeth implemented religious policies that sought to bring stability to the nation and mitigate the religious conflicts that had plagued England during her predecessors' reigns. Her religious settlement and support for the Protestant cause helped solidify England as a Protestant nation.

John Donne was raised a Catholic, but changed his faith to become a Protestant, eventually to serve as Dean of St. Paul's under the reign of James I. In some of his writings and sermons he shows more tolerance for Catholicism than most of his Protestant contemporaries.
