Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Milton and the Cavaliers There is, perhaps, no sadder career in the whole of English history than that of Charles I. The very designations by which he is known, mark, by their varying character, the changes through which he passed. He was Baby Charles, he was Charles I., and the White King - so styled by Lilly the Astrologer - then he became merely "the man Charles Stuart," at least in the mouths of many; and now, among those who look only on one side of the picture, he lives in memory always as Charles the Martyr. Between the first fond foolish name, given by his eccentric but indulgent father, and the last mournful appellation, yawns a gulf which represents a complete change in the English Monarchy.
