[456] On his arrival in England, as Osborne tells us (_Memoirs_, p. 276), King James "brought a new holiday into the Church of England, wherein God had publick thanks given him for his majestie's deliverance out of the hands of Earle Goury;" but the introduction was not a success, Englishmen and Scots alike ridiculing it. Gunpowder Plot Day was more fortunate. [457] _Harleian Miscellany_, iv. 251. APPENDIX A. NOTES ON THE ILLUSTRATIONS. _Frontispiece. The Powder Plot. I._ FROM the Crace Collection, British Museum, _Portf._ xv. 20. Thus described in the catalogue of the collection: "A small etching of the House of Lords. Guy Fawkes in the foreground. W.E. exc. 1605." This plate is of exceptional interest as having been executed within five months of the discovery of the Plot, _i.e._, previously to March 25th, 1606, the first day of the year, Old Style. Guy Faukes is represented as approaching the House of Commons (St. Stephen's Chapel), not the House of Lords, as the catalogue says. _Title-Page._ Obverse, or reverse, of a medal struck, by order of the Dutch senate, to commemorate the double event of the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot and the expulsion of the Jesuits from Holland. Drawn from a copy of the medal in pewter, by Paul Woodroffe. The design here exhibited is thus described in Hawkins and Frank's _Medallic Illustrations_: "The name of Jehovah, in Hebrew, radiate, within a crown of thorns." "Legend, chronogrammatic, Non DorMItastI AntIstes IaCobI" [which gives the date 1605] On its other face the medal bears a snake gliding amid roses and lilies [symbolizing Jesuit intrigues in England and France], with the legend _Detectus qui latuit. S.C._ [Senatus Consulto]." This is reproduced on the cover. _Group of Conspirators_ (p. 3). From a print published at Amsterdam. Eight conspirators are represented, five being omitted, viz., Grant, Keyes, Digby, Rokewood, and Tresham. Bates, as a servant, wears no hat. _The Houses of Parliament in the time of James I._ (pp. 56-7). Restored from the best authorities, and drawn for the author by H.W. Brewer. _Ground Plan of House of Lords and adjacent Buildings_ (p. 59). Extracted from the "Foundation plan of the Ancient Palace of Westminster; measured, drawn and engraved by J. T. Smith" (_Antiquities of Westminster_, p. 125) _The House of Lords in 1807_ (p. 61). From J.T. Smith's _Antiquities of Westminster_. This sketch, made from the east, or river, side, was taken during the demolition of the buildings erected against the sides of the Parliament House. These were put up previously to the time when Hollar made his drawing of the interior (temp. Charles II.), which shows the walls hung with tapestry, the windows having been blocked up.
