In the twentieth year of the reign of the right high and puissant King Henry the Eighth, namely, in 1529, on the twenty-first of April, and on one of the loveliest evenings that ever fell on the loveliest district in England, a fair youth, having somewhat the appearance of a page, was leaning over the terrace-wall on the north side of Windsor Castle, and gazing at the magnificent scene before him.

All the paraphernalia of a professional theatre he manufactured: playbills, painted scenery, costumes, properties, and even stage machinery. He also contributed poems, plays, and short stories to a number of popular magazines: the Pocket Magazine , the Edinburgh Magazine , the New Monthly Magazine , the European Magazine , and the London Magazine . In keeping with his father's wishes, however, he articled to another Manchester lawyer after leaving school in 1817, Alexander Kay, solicitor and conveyancer.

Site map Perhaps best remembered for his popularisation of the story of Dick Turpin in Rookwood (1834) and of Herne the Hunter in Windsor Castle (1843), and for his prodigious output of historical and romantic novels, Ainsworth combined his writing career with that of magazine owner and editor. Locations in the West Midlands feature largely in Boscobel , the story of Charles Stuart's escape after the battle of Worcester Born and educated in Manchester, Ainsworth spent his summer holidays at his great-uncle's home, Rostherne, in Cheshire. While still at school, he contributed poetry and short stories to a number of magazines, and also wrote gothic melodramas, which he produced in a theatre he had set up in the family home. He followed his father into the law, being admitted to the Court of King's Bench in London in 1826, at the same time continuing with his literary work. During this period he began a correspondence with Charles Lamb, collaborated with a fellow-clerk on a long romance, Sir John Chiverton , and married Fanny Ebers, the daughter of his publisher.

    Extractions: AINSWORTH—AINU Song of Solomon (1623). These were collected in folio in 1627, and again in 1639, and later in various forms. From the outset the Annotations took a commanding place, especially among continental scholars, and he established for English nonconformity a tradition of culture and scholarship. There is no probability about the narrative given by Neal in his History of the Puritans (ii. 47) that he was poisoned by certain Jews. He died in 1622, or early in 1623, for in that year was published his Seasonable Discourse, or a Censure upon a Dialogue of the Anabaptists, in which the editor speaks of him as a departed worthy.
