When she got out of her car, Robert Blake came over and gave her a long hug, the top of his head just below her nose. She resisted an inclination to pat him, and waited patiently for him to let her go. A beautiful bay horse, tied up and saddled, stomped and flicked flies with his tail. His hooves were long and shiny.

Blake was one of thirteen siblings born to a merchant in Bridgwater, Somerset, where he attended Bridgwater Grammar School For Boys. After attending Wadham College, Oxford, he had hoped to follow an academic career, but failed to secure a fellowship to Merton College, probably because of his political and religious views. Having returned to Bridgwater, probably because of the death of his mother in 1638, he decided to stand for election to Parliament.

Blake was back in British waters in 1651. With the assistance of Sir George Ayscue, he captured the Royalist base on the Isles of Scilly in May 1651, from where Sir John Grenville had been running an effective privateering campaign against Commonwealth shipping. In October, Blake attacked Sir George Carteret's stronghold at Elizabeth Castle on Jersey, which surrendered in December after a fifty-day siege.

There are times when Smith strides fearlessly into a challenging situation, and Blake feels much more cautious and careful. Smith may consider Blake to be too timid, and Blake may feel that Smith lacks prudence. There are ... many situations where Smith is more stubborn and persevering than Blake. Smith may view Blake's lack of commitment and dedication to a single purpose to be a sign of weakness. There is also the possibility that Blake will view Smith as being a bit crude, too passionate or emotionally attached to certain situations or ideas. Blake
