P. 281), refer to this event, A SUMMER DAY IN HYDE PARK. 75 " Nol, a rank rider, got fast in the saddle, And made her shew tricks, and curvet, and rebound ; She quickly perceived he rode widdle-waddle, And his coach -horse His Highness it threw to ground. Then Dick, being lame, rode holding the pummel, Not having the wit to get hold of the rein ; But the jade did so snort at the sight of a Cromwell That poor Dick and his kindred turned footmen again. " There would seem to have been some fatalit...y about Oliver Cromwell's visit to Hyde Park ; at all eveuts in February 1656, we find Myles Syndercombe tried for high treason and sentenced to be hanged at Tyburn, for an attempt to assas- sinate the Protector in Hyde Park ; an attempt which was prevented only by the merest accident from being fatal.
Five years later, in 1659, we find Hyde Park thus described by a foreign gentleman in " The Characters of England, " a " Letter to a Nobleman in France, " p. 54.
" Did frequently accompany my Lord N into a field near the town, which they call Hyde Park ; the place is not unpleasant, and which they use as our course, but with nothing of that order, equipage and splendour ; being such an as- sembly of wretched jades and hackney-coaches, as, next to a regiment of carmen, there is nothing approacheth the resemblance.
