In
an
instant
several
indignant
hands
were
laid
upon
the
boy
;
but
in
the
same
instant
Tom
Canty
,
in
his
regal
vestments
,
made
a
swift
step
forward
,
and
cried
out
in
a
ringing
voice
--
"
Loose
him
and
forbear
!
He
is
the
King
!
"
A
sort
of
panic
of
astonishment
swept
the
assemblage
,
and
they
partly
rose
in
their
places
and
stared
in
a
bewildered
way
at
one
another
and
at
the
chief
figures
in
this
scene
,
like
persons
who
wondered
whether
they
were
awake
and
in
their
senses
,
or
asleep
and
dreaming
.
The
Lord
Protector
was
as
amazed
as
the
rest
,
but
quickly
recovered
himself
,
and
exclaimed
in
a
voice
of
authority
--
"
Mind
not
his
Majesty
,
his
malady
is
upon
him
again
--
seize
the
vagabond
!
"
He
would
have
been
obeyed
,
but
the
mock-King
stamped
his
foot
and
cried
out
--
"
On
your
peril
!
Touch
him
not
,
he
is
the
King
!
"
The
hands
were
withheld
;
a
paralysis
fell
upon
the
house
;
no
one
moved
,
no
one
spoke
;
indeed
,
no
one
knew
how
to
act
or
what
to
say
,
in
so
strange
and
surprising
an
emergency
.
While
all
minds
were
struggling
to
right
themselves
,
the
boy
still
moved
steadily
forward
,
with
high
port
and
confident
mien
;
he
had
never
halted
from
the
beginning
;
and
while
the
tangled
minds
still
floundered
helplessly
,
he
stepped
upon
the
platform
,
and
the
mock-King
ran
with
a
glad
face
to
meet
him
;
and
fell
on
his
knees
before
him
and
said
--
"
Oh
,
my
lord
the
King
,
let
poor
Tom
Canty
be
first
to
swear
fealty
to
thee
,
and
say
,
'
Put
on
thy
crown
and
enter
into
thine
own
again
!
'
"
The
Lord
Protector
's
eye
fell
sternly
upon
the
new-comer
's
face
;
but
straightway
the
sternness
vanished
away
,
and
gave
place
to
an
expression
of
wondering
surprise
.
This
thing
happened
also
to
the
other
great
officers
.
They
glanced
at
each
other
,
and
retreated
a
step
by
a
common
and
unconscious
impulse
.
The
thought
in
each
mind
was
the
same
:
"
What
a
strange
resemblance
!
"
