Westminster Abbey Priest
Inglaterra, mediados del siglo XVII. Tras la victoria obtenida por los puritanos en la guerra civil (1642-1648) que enfrentó a la Corona con el Parlamento, el rey Carlos I Estuardo fue ejecutado (1649); además, la Monarquía fue abolida y en su lugar se implantó la República (1649-1660). El líder parlamentario rebelde Thomas Fairfax, miembro de la aristocracia, proyectaba una reforma moderada de la monarquía, pero su lugarteniente Oliverio Cromwel, que era un fanático dominado por el ansia de poder, exigió la ejecución del rey y la instauración de la República. Finalmente, Cromwell acabó imponiéndose a Fairfax.
