The History Of The Struggle For Parliamentary Government In England Vol 2 Of 2 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The History of the Struggle for Parliamentary Government in England, Vol. 2 of 2 We have now reached a critical point of time in the great war between the King and the Parliament of England. The two men who had been hitherto the leading spirits on the side of the Parliament had vanished from the scene. Hampden was dead, and Pym was dead; but they can hardly be said to have died before their work was done. In such business as the impeachment of Strafford and the carrying of the Grand Remonstrance, they had done their work well and thoroughly. But work of another kind had now to be done for which they were not equally well fitted; and two men were now coming upon the stage who were the men to do that work.
