Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Continuation of the Life of Edward Earl of Clarendon, Vol. 2: Lord High Chancellor of England, and Chancellor of the University of Oxford; Being a Continuation of His History of the Grand Rebellion, From the Restoration to His Banishment in 1667 And it is most true, and must never be denied, that the People were admirably disposed and prepared to pay all the Subjection, Duty and Obedience, that a just and prudent King could expect from them, and had a very sharp Aversion and Detestation of all those who had formerly milled and corrupted them; so that, except the General, who seemed to be possessed entirely of the Affection of the Army, and whose Fidelity was now above any Misapprehension, there appeared no Man whose Power and Interest could in any Degree shake or endanger the Peace and Security the King was in; the Congratulations for his Return being so universal, from all the Counties of England, as well as from the Parliament and City; from all those who had most signally disserved and disclaimed him, as well as from those of his own Party and those who were descended from them: Insomuch as the King was wont merrily to lay, as hath been mentioned before, "that it could be Nobody´s Fault but his own that He had stayed so long abroad, when all Mankind wished him so heartily at home."
