[34] Westminster-Hall, first reared by Rufus, was entirely rebuilt by
Richard II.
[35] Winchester, many years the residence of Joseph Warton, is so much
associated with the recollections and noble poetry of his younger
brother, as to warrant the expression in the text.
[36] The Protector-Duke, beheaded on Tower-Hill in the reign of his
nephew, Edward VI.--"His attention to the poor during his Protectorship,
and his opposition to the system of enclosures, had created him many
friends among the lower classes, who hastened to witness his end, and
yet flattered themselves with the hope of his reprieve."--LINGARD.
[37] The trial of the seven bishops took place in the hall. Five out of
their number--worthy of note upon every occasion--(the Archbishop, the
Bishops of Ely, Bath and Wells, Chichester, and Petersborough,) refused
the oaths to King William, and were deprived accordingly.
[38] The unfortunate Scottish lords were tried here 1745-6, as Horace
Walpole abundantly testifies.
[39] More than one noble family, very creditably, have visited the works
of art on free-admission days.
[40] Maclise's fresco of _The Knight_.
[41] _Youth at a stream_, by J. H. Foley.
[42] Lough's _Mourners_, a group in marble.
