Boscobel; or, the royal oak: A tale of the year 1651

CHARLES AND CARELESS HIDING IN THE OAK.
A TALE OF THE YEAR 1651.
WILLIAM HARRISON AINSWORTH. AUTHOR OF THE TOWER OF LONDON, &c.
ILLUSTRATED.
In that fair part where the rich Salop gains
An ample view o'er all the Western plains,
A grove appears which Boscobel they name,
Not known to maps; a grove of scanty fame.
And yet henceforth no celebrated shade
Of all the British groves shall be more glorious made.
Cowley's Sylva . Book VI.
