Description

It was a spring afternoon in the sixth year of the reign of King Henry

VII. of England. There had been a great show in London, for that day his

Grace opened the newly convened Parliament, and announced to his

faithful people--who received the news with much cheering, since war is

ever popular at first--his intention of invading France, and of leading

the English armies in person. In Parliament itself, it is true, the

general enthusiasm was somewhat dashed when allusion was made to the

finding of the needful funds; but the crowds without, formed for the

most part of persons who would not be called upon to pay the money, did

not suffer that side of the question to trouble them. So when their

gracious liege appeared, surrounded by his glittering escort of nobles

and men-at-arms, they threw their caps into the air, and shouted

themselves hoarse.
