In the year 1688, a world of exploration, literature, and historical events unfolded. As depicted in a woodcut French map of the Caribbean islands from that era, this was a time when seafarers set sail to discover new lands and treasures. Among them was Henry Morgan, whose exploits as a pirate captivated imaginations during his life from 1635 to 1688. Meanwhile, another influential figure emerged in the literary realm: John Bunyan. Born in 1628 and passing away in the same year as Morgan, Bunyan's writings continue to inspire readers today. Even while imprisoned for his beliefs, he penned timeless works such as "The Pilgrim's Progress, " which takes readers on an allegorical journey through faith. During this period of history, Jacques Aymar made headlines by apprehending a thief – showcasing bravery and justice prevailing even amidst chaos. The religious landscape also saw significant moments like "The Ascension of Jesus, " reminding believers of their faith's foundations. Academic institutions thrived during this time too; Sidney Sussex College flourished around 1688 after Loggan engraved its image onto paper. Education remained vital for society's progress. Amidst all these happenings across continents were stories like "The Parable of the Seed. " This tale reminded individuals about sowing seeds metaphorically – whether it be ideas or actions – with hope for future growth and prosperity. Notably associated with this era is Mlle Marie De Guise who left her mark on society through her contributions yet remains somewhat shrouded in mystery today. Lastly but not leastly is Jeffreys (1648 - 1689), whose name echoes throughout history due to his role as Lord Chancellor under King James II. His controversial decisions shaped political landscapes at that time.
