The story of English literature for young readers . , hoops, and high-heeled boots came into vogue. The gloomyausterities of Cromwells day naturally produced anextreme under a new ruler. Charles was called the Merry Monarch, and, from all accounts given us of high life in his day, thetitle was not undeserved.
