quickly to the Parliament house,
But what them" asked Doctor
Verify, his face burning with the
eager soul behind 1t.
IL stood at the door watching him,
my men being in the lobby. He
went to his usual seat, but in a
very great and majestic manner, and
for a little while he listened to the
debate. Then he beckoned Major

me this afternoon, that he advised
Cromwell to consider what he would

looking at me as he did so, and look

Il and mine could be depended on.
in a few minutes the question for
passing the bill was put, and the man
could be restrained no longer. He
stood up, took off his hat. and looked
around the House, and 1t quailed
under his eyes, every man in 1t shift
ed on his seat and was uneasy. He
began to speak, and IL was with a
tongue of flame. He reproached
them for their self-seeking and their
hypocrisy and oppression. and as he
went on, there was the roar of lion

He said, My Lord General. this Par.

England. and Cromwell answered,

cart!' Then Sir Peter told Cromwell

more horrid because it came from the

At these words DIR. Verify laughed
loudly-"Cromwel. the servant of

He said he had heard enough of such
talk. and putting on his hat, he took

men as if they were javelins; shot
them in their faces as If from pis-

done with them. He said they we're
no Parliament, and that he had been
sent to put an end to their sitting
and their prating.
And at these words Cluny Ne
vile spoke to the Sergeant, and he
opened the doors, and some musket-
GERS entered the House. Then Sir
Harry Yane cried out, This is not
honest, and Cromwell reminded him
Of his own broken promise, and they

Alderman Allen, the Treasurer of

His eye fell upon the Mace, and he
said scornfully to some of the Iron

he ordered the musketeers to clear
the House, he himself walking up to
its Clerk and taking from under his
arm the bill which had caused the
trouble, and which was ready to
pass. He ordered the man to go
home, and he slipped away without
a question. Cromwell was the last
soul to leave the Chamber, and as
he went out of it he locked the door
and put the key in his pocket. He
then walked quietly back to his
rooms in the Cockpit"
HE will need God on his right

Verify. More than we can tell will
