Whitefriars, Or the Days of Charles the Second (Classic Reprint) by Emma Robinson Pdf

Excerpt from Whitefriars, or the Days of Charles the Second It was drawing nigh sunset on the eve of September 1st, A.D. 1666, a date of terrible omen to the great city within whose walls the opening events of our history took place. London lay bathed in a glorious autumnal sun, and was sinking into that busy tranquillity which marks the close of labour in the great hives of human industry. Shops were closing in all security, the burghers early supper smoked on the table, the watch set their rounds on the city walls, and gamesome 'prentices sallied forth on their evening recreations. The river presented an aspect of peculiar tranquillity. It was the eve preceding the Sabbath, a day held scrupulously sacred by the great mass of the people, which was still puritan. The immense fleet of merchantmen from every nation stretched along the river; the barges and gilded wherries of the citizens, decorated with streamers and flags, were drawn up along the quays and wharves, as if they, too, had a right to their seventh day's rest. The grey ramparts and turrets of the Tower were lighted up with Italian brUliancy in the rich colours of the sunset, and were decked out in holiday splendour with innumerable banderols, above which floated, on the highest tower, the gorgeous banner of England. The great bell, which usually summoned the inhabitants within the fortress limits before the gates closed, was tolling, and divers belated persons were hurrying towards them. Among these, riding at a jaded pace, appeared a solitary horseman. He was mounted on a powerful nag, whose original colour was probably white, but it was at present a dirty brown, and splashed and; travel-staiped from head to heel.

COLONEL BLOOD. Pardon, my lord, this somewhat abrupt entrance into your honourable presence, was the new visiter's address, delivered with a bold scrutinizing glance on all present, and concluding with one of threatening inquiry at the earl. Colonel Blood's presence always brings its own excuse?apparently, replied the earl, with a deep flush. But methinks 'tis somewhat surperfluous courtesy to ask a prisoner's pardon for entering his dungeon, sithence he hath neither means nor right to resist such authorized intrusion. I shall not trouble your lordship long; but, forthe brief space which I needs must, I will anticipate your courtesy so far as to seat myself, said the colonel, throwing himself with perfect nonchalance into a chair, and kicking a stool towards him, on which he leisurely crossed his legs. Claude felt his first emotion of alarm and curiosity at the appearance of a man so renowned for almost every species of daring villany, rapidly changing into indignation at his insolence, but he was obliged to suppress all exterior signs, and to content himself with returning the colonel's deliberate inspection. He beheld a figure remarkable at first glance for its prodigious strength and muscular symmetry, the bull-like massiveness of the neck and shoulders, and the somewhat peculiar largeness of the head. His lace, howcver, was what chiefly caught the eye, and fixed it in indistinct fear and suspicion. The features, considered without their expression, though perfectly Irish in their conformation, were not unhandsome; the.lips though thin and too wide, had a determined curve, and the forehead although low, with its massive overhanging eyebrows, gave the idea of a rode power and energy of intellect, able to second, but too well, the volit...
