Excerpt from The Age of Milton More clearly to be discerned. The divine, the historian, the biographer, the dramatist, the poet, fall, each Of them, into one or other of these two main divisions, according as each is either imitative or spontaneous, - the producer of ingenious variations on Old familiar strains, or seeking to win an audience by utterances in which theme and treat ment are alike new. Of the English literature of the age Of Milton, it may be said that at least three-fourths Of it is almost entirely imitative; Of Milton himself, that in no respect is his originality more clearly to be discerned than in the manner in which (if we except his political pamphlets) his genius asserts its independence Of tradition and Of party. Much Of the imitativeness Of the literature of this time is to be referred to the fact that that literature was, either directly or indirectly, largely concerned with religious belief and consequently with tradition. It is only when we compare some Of the ablest and most thoughtful theological literature Of our own day with the best Of Milton's age that we become aware that theology is not all tradition; and that around great central truths there gathers, as the ages roll on, new and loftier inspiration as amid the disso nance of Past and Present man seeks to interpret to his own soul the solemn fugue-notes of ancient Revelation. But that which chie y serves to redeem a certain propor tion Of the theological literature Of the seventeenth century from Oblivion, is its association with the national history with party iii politics as well as in religion. Hence, indeed, much Of its in spiration - its fire, its argumentative force, its eloquence - according as each writer is Roman or Protestant, Teutonic or Latin, Anglican or Puritan in his views and sympathies. At the time when Milton came up to Cam. Bridge and studied there (1625-1632) the power Of Teutonic Protestantism seemed ebbing fast. Ever since the Synod Of Dort, Arminianism had been gaining ground; and its. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Life of John Milton: Narrated in Connexion With the Political, Ecclesiastical and Literary, History of His Time Parliament in payment of the main portion of the sums voted them for their first expenses. Or, if there was any other inconvenience, it arose from the necessity of grant ing interviews to Messrs. Reynolds, Calamy, Manton, Case, and the other eminent Presbyterian ministers who had come from London to bespeak the King's fidelity to Presbytery and the Solemn League and Covenant, or at least to obtain his assurance that he would not show sudden favour to Episcopacy by requiring the use of the Book of Common Prayer and the surplice by his own chaplains. In the particular of his own practice the King told the reverend gentlemen distinctly that he reserved the same liberty for himself that he meant to allow to others; but on the general question he was sufiiciently polite.

Excerpt from The Life of John Milton, Vol. 4: Narrated in Connexion With the Political; Ecclesiastical, and Literary History of His Time England was now a Republic. The change had been virtually made on Thursday, January 4, 1648-9, when the Commons passed their three great Resolutions, declaring (1) that the People of England were, under God, the original of all just power in the State, (2) that the Commons, in Parliament assembled, having been chosen by the People, and representing the People, possessed the supreme power in their name, and (3) that whatever the Commons enacted should have the force of a law, without needing the consent of either King or House of Peers. On Tuesday, the 30th of January, the theory of these Resolutions became more visibly a fact. On the afternoon of that day, while the crowd that had seen the execution in front of 'Whitehall were still lingering round the scaffold, the Commons passed an Act "prohibiting the proclaiming of' any person to be King of England or Ireland, or the dominions thereof."

Excerpt from Noted Men and Historical Narrations of Ancient Milton Ladies and Gentlemen of the School Committee: At your request I have prepared brief statements respecting those of our early inhabitants whose names you propose to affix to our common schools. The men whom you have selected were in their day, without exception, representative men. They were men of stalwart character, strong, wise, God-fearing men; earnest in purpose and decided in action, who could be safely trusted with the affairs of Church and State. Such are the individuals whom you have selected, from the vast number of their compeers, to give names to the schools of Milton, whose rare qualities of heart and mind, in many particulars, all our sons and daughters may well emulate. Never were more truthful words uttered than those of Governor Stoughton, in his Election Sermon, 1668: - "God sifted a whole nation that he might send choice grain over into this wilderness."
