How fearfully those fair hopes were destroyed, Mstory too fUthhilly records. Never had the Tower contained a greater number of illustrious names amongst its unhappy prisoners — ^never was the headsman's office more recklessly called into requisition, than during this reign of terror — ^the scaffold and the block reeked with blood! Amongst the nobles who suffered in this reign, was Edward Bohun, Duke of Buckingham, Lord High Constable of England, who in consequence of Ms high descent, and some i...ncau- tious expressions on his part, was charged with treason, tried and executed. We have also to name the intrepid Chancellor of England, Sir Thomas More who b2 IS TOWBR OF LONBOW.
refusing to acknowledge the king's supremacy, suffered imprisonment in theTower, previous to his execution. Imprisonment and death appear to have had hut little terror in them for the witty writer of Utopia: he endured one and went forth to meet the other, with a fearlessness that fully shewed the superiority of his na> ture to all that earthly power could inflict.
