Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1854 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXXIII. ENGLAND UNDER CHARLES THE FIRST. First Part. Baby Charles became King Charles The First in the twenty-fifth year of his age. Unlike his father, he was usually amiable in his private character, and grave and dignified in his bearing; but, like his father, he had monstrously exaggerated notions of the rights of a king, and was evasive, and not to be trusted.

But she held the Protestant religion in great dislike, and brought over a crowd of unpleasant priests, who made her do some very ridiculous things, and forced themselves upon the public notice in many disagreeable ways. Hence the people soon came to dislike her, and she soon came to dislike them; and Vol. II-- N 193 she did Bo much all through this reign in setting the King (who was dotingly fond of her) against his subjects, that it would have been better for him if she had never been born. . Now you are to understand that King Charles the First--of his own determination to be a high and mighty King, not to be called to account by any body, and urged on by his dueen besides--deliberately set himself to put his Parliament down and to put himself up. You are also to understand, that even in pursuit of this wrong idea (enough...
