Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Account of the Life and Times of Francis Bacon, Vol. 2 of 2: Extracted From the Edition of His Occasional Writings The question of calling a new Parliament, which had been postponed in the preceding summer, does not appear to have been formally agreed upon in Council till the middle of February. But I think the King had made up is mind to it before. A letter of Bacon´s, which dates itself by a reference to the rejoicings upon the birth of the King´s grandchild as written not long after the 9th of January, 1613-14, shows that before that time the King had been speaking with him about the preparatory measures, and had also been in communication with "those gentlemen which professed to do him service in Parliament;" - who could be no other than Sir Henry Neville and his party; afterwards known as the "Undertakers." It show also (which is a fact of some importance) that though desirous to make the best of their services, Bacon himself augured little good from their intervention.
