Excerpt from The New Guide to the Royal Palace of Hampton Court: With a New Catalogue of the Pictures (Abridged From the Author's "Historical Catalogue.")
Hampton Court, and it was during her second sojourn here in the following year that, believing she was about to become a mother, a proclamation was prepared announcing from our house at Hampton Court her happy delivery of a Prince - who was never destined to be born! Here, about the same time, she was reconciled to her sister Elizabeth, who after her own accession to the throne frequently took up her abode at Hampton Court, and entertained her Court and distinguished foreigners with hunting parties, balls, banquets, masques and plays.
In James I.'s reign this Palace was often visited by the Court, and in January, 1604, the King presided here as Moderator over the famous Hampton Court Conference between the Episcopalians and the Puritans.
At Hampton Court Charles I. Spent with his wife and children some of his happiest days, and it was to this Palace that he was brought, as a prisoner, in August, 1647, remaining here three months under a very mild restraint, until he escaped and fled to the Isle of Wight.
A few years after we find Oliver Cromwell installed here; while soon after the Restoration Charles II. Arrived here to spend his honeymoon with Catherine of Braganza.
