Excerpt from History of the English Revolution of 1640: From the Accession of Charles I. To His Death

I have no fear of its importance being underrated; our revolution, in surpassing, did not make that of England less great in itself; they were both victories in the same war, and to the profit of the same cause; glory is their common attri bute; they do not eclipse, but set off each other. My fear is least their true character should be mistaken, least the world should not assign to them that place which is properly theirs in the world's history.
