hich ever attended him, he was taken up
without any considerable hurt or bruise.]

[Footnote 27: NOTE AA, p. 512. After Monk's declaration for a free
parliament on the eleventh of February, he could mean nothing but the
king's restoration; yet it was long before he would open himself even
to the king. This declaration was within eight days after his arrival
in London. Had he ever intended to have set up for himself, he would not
surely have so soon abandoned a project so inviting; he would have taken
some steps which would have betrayed it. It could only have been some
disappointment, some frustrated attempt, which could have made him
renounce the road of private ambition. But there is not the least
symptom of such intentions. The story told of Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper,
by Mr. Locke, has not any appearance of truth. See Lord Linsdowne's
Vindication, and Philips's Continuation of Baker. I shall add to what
those authors have advanced, that Cardinal Mazarine wished for the
king's restoration; though he would not have ventured much to have
procured it.]
