Excerpt from Gentlemen of the House of Commons, Vol. 1 of 2 The scene, the precinct of Westminster, the period, Anglo-Saxon England. In a building which stood where now stands the great Hall, built by William Rufus for his dining chamber, and rebuilt by Richard II., there has met an Assembly that contains the germ alike of the Estates of Lords Spiritual, Temporal, and of Commons. The King, as President, is seated on his Throne, the sword in his right hand. Around him are grouped Court officials, officers of State, lords of high as well as of lower degree, Churchmen of varying rank, and even in these early days, chief citizens not only from London, but from less famous towns of the Kingdom.
