(in which I believe that I have given, from the mark ing of Marten's cheek to the guiding of Ingoldsby's hand, a very faithful version of what actually occur red.) are chiefly taken from the Defences in the Trials of the Regicides. It is certain that the J udges, after the condemnation, were panic-struck at their own act; and that but for an extraordinary exertion of his singu lar power over the minds of all with whom he came in contact, Cromwell would never have succeeded in obtaining the signatures of the Commissioners of the High Court of Justice to an instrument essential to the comfletion of this great national crime, and to the purposes of his own ambition.
