We have negotiated 1647 safely, and have brought our man away from the dreadful scenes of Colchester. It may well be that the executions without trial of Lucas and Lisle turned many mens' hearts back to the King.  Prides Purge and the execution of the King follow, but Fairfax always protested he had nothing to do with either of them. His father died in 1648, so he is now Lord Fairfax. If you REALLY want the full Latin text of the inscription on Ferdinando's tomb, which Markham described as "long, Latin and very pompous", the Fairfax Society can provide it for you. And finally,a reminder that the book is also available in electronic format.
