This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of the Portraits at Longleat in the County of Wilts, the Seat of the Marquis of Bath Thynne (afterwards Lord Weymouth), who became the faithful friend of his whole (subsequent) life. Oxford was at that time in a state of great disorder - the Book of Common Prayer forbidden the Proctor a boisterous fellow at cudgelling, and foot-ball playing the vice-chancellor in Spanish leather boots, huge ribbons at the knee, and his hat mostly cocked.' But such examples were lost on Ken. He pursued his studies with sobriety, and diligence, and took his Degree. In 1666 he became a Fellow of Winchester College, and was made chaplain to Morley, Bishop of the diocese, who gave him a living in the Isle of Wight. Here he was most zealous in his duties, allowing himself but little sleep, and (in the words of a near relation and friend) '50 lively and cheerful was his temper that he would be very facetious to his friends of an evening, though he could scarce keep his eyes Open, and he used to sing his morning hymn to his lute before he dressed.' In 1669 he was appointed Prebendary of Winchester, and travelled to Italy with his nephew, who was also the nephew and name sake of the celebrated Izaak Walton and in 1682 we hear of him on board the Tangiers fleet, with Lord Dartmouth. The Princess of Orange (afterwards Queen Mary of Eng land), whose chaplain he became, appreciated Ken's straight forward and uncompromising character. But the Prince was very wroth with him on one occasion, when the Englishman stood forward as champion of a young lady, at the Dutch Court, who had been wronged. Ken insisted that her seducer should marry her, and he carried his point, but William (with whom he had not been on friendly terms, before this event) resented the interference, and threatened to deprive his wife's chaplain of his post. The Princess was in despair when she found her favourite on the eve of departure, and endeavoured to Compromise matters; but Ken would brook no half measures, and told his royal mistress roundly, that he would not remain in Holland unless requested to do so by the Prince, and that in person.
