Goofs
The Speaker of the House of Commons calls on Sir Walter Pole by name. Until recently this was not done: because of Parliament's history as the antagonist of the king or queen, the identities of participants were kept obscure under labels like "the honourable Member for [place]".

Quotes
Vinculus: [Vinculus prophecy to Mr. Norrell]
Vinculus: Two magicians shall appear in England. The name of one shall be Fearfulness, the name of the other, Arrogance. The first shall fear me, the second shall long to behold me. The first shall bury his heart in the dark wood beneath the snow, yet still feel its ache. The second shall see his dearest possession in his enemy's hand. Both will fail. The nameless slave shall be a king in a strange land. I will return.
