Charles I (1600-1649) was the King of England, Scotland and Ireland. He was an absolute ruler who had many conflicts with the parliament. The parliament refused his request to increase taxes and criticized the religious reforms that he wished to make in the church. This tension increased and triggered violence and the eruption of a rebellion in Ireland at the end of 1641. When both the king and the parliament demanded control of the army, the king tried to imprison the leaders of the parliament which led to civil war. The king was exiled by the parliamentary forces, and was tried and executed at the start of 1649.
This is a compilation of poems in honor of the king, collected when the legitimacy of his rule was undermined, on the eve of the outbreak of the civil war.
Condition: Very fine condition.
