It was at Huntingdon that the father of the infant, Robert Cromwell, had established himself, farming lands and perhaps also adding to his income by the profits of a brewhouse managed by his wife, Elizabetha descendant of a middle-class Norfolk family of Stewardoriginally Stywardwhich, whatever writers of authority may say, was not in any way connected with the Royal House of Scotland."I was," said Cromwell in one of his later speeches, "by birth a gentleman, living neither in any considerable height nor yet in obscurity. I have been called to several employments in the nation, andnot to be overtediousI did endeavour to discharge the duty of an honest man in those services to God and His peoples interest, and to the Commonwealth." The open secret of Cromwells public life is set forth in these words:his aim being: first, to be himself an honest man; secondly, to serve God and the people of God; and thirdly, to fulfil his duty to the Commonwealth. In this order, and in no other, did his obligations to his fellow-creatures present themselves to his eyes. For the work before him it could not be otherwise than helpful that his position in life brought him into contact with all classes of society.What powers and capacities this infantor indeed any other infantmay have derived from this or the other ancestor, is a mystery too deep for human knowledge; but at least it may be noted that the descent of the Cromwells from Sir Richard Williams, the nephew of Thomas Cromwell, the despotic Minister of Henry VIII., brought into the family a Welsh strain which may have shown itself in the fervid idealism lighting up the stern practical sense of the warrior and statesman.Of Olivers father little is known; but his portrait testifies that he was a man of sober Puritanism, not much given to any form of spiritual enthusiasmvery unlike his elder brother, Sir Oliver, who had inherited not only the estate, but the splendid ways of his father, Sir Henry Cromwellthe Golden Knightand who, after running through his property, was compelled to sell his land and to retire into a more obscure position. As the little Oliver grew up, he had before his eyes the types of the future Cavalier and Roundhead in his own family. So far as parental influence could decide the question, there could be no doubt on which side the young Oliver would take his stand. His education was carried on in the free school of the town, under Dr. Beard, the author of The Theatre of Gods Judgments Displayed, in which a belief in the constant intervention of Providence in the punishment of offenders was set forth by numerous examples of the calamities of the wicked. Though Oliver afterwards learned to modify the crudeness of this teaching, the doctrine that success or failure was an indication of Divine favour or disfavour never left him, and he was able, in the days of his greatness, to point unhesitatingly to the results of Naseby and Worcester as evidence that God Himself approved of the victorious cause.</p>...9786155565670_E-Kitap Projesi & Cheapest Bookslibro_electonico_9786155565670_9786155565670Samuel RawsonInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/bookwire-epub-4851737c-1360-408e-bb85-2379a443e7a3.epub2024-01-19T00:00:00+00:00E-Kitap Projesi & Cheapest Books
