But he was still faithful to Durie and Comenius, and three of his recovered utterances of 1641-2 are in behalf of them. His Brief Relation and his Letter to Henderson refer to Durie and his scheme of Protestant union. Dureus his Eleven Treatises touching Ecclesiastical Peace amongst Protestants" is the title of an entry by Mr. In the other case there is no such doubt.
I should not wonder if Milton were one of those "more forward spirits" whom Hartlib wanted to enlist in the great scheme of a Pansophic University of London to be organized by Comenius, and whom he tried to bring round Comenius personally during the stay of that theorist in London in 1641-2, when the experiment of some such University was really in contemplation by friends in Parliament, and Chelsea had been almost fixed on as the site.
Next to the death of Strafford, the thing in his past life which caused him the most continued private remorse was his assent, in Feb. 1641-2, to the Bill excluding Bishops from Parliament: whatever happened, he would sin no more in that direction. He would consent to any restriction of his kingly power in the Militia and other matters, rather than do more in repudiation of Episcopacy.
When, in Jan. 1641-2, Hartlib sent to the press his new compilation of the views of Comenius under the title of A Reformation of Schools, there was good reason for it. Comenius himself was at his elbow. The great man had come to London. Education, and especially University Education, was one of the subjects that Parliament was anxious to take up.
But the king was of another mind and sent, to examine the girl, a physician, Dr. But see also below, appendix C, under 1602-1603. One other pamphlet dealing with this same episode must be mentioned. Although Hughes's tale was not here published until 1641-2, the events with which it deals must all have taken place in 1602 or 1603.
We see now the reason of Hartlib's publication in Jan. 1641-2 of Comenius's two treatises jointly in a book called A Reformation of Schools. It was to help in the business which had brought Comenius to London. It was a great chagrin to Hartlib when the London plan came to an abrupt end, and Comenius transferred himself to Sweden.
