His first entrance into London from Sheen was Hisspien- a day of magnificence, gratulation, and festivity. His nce'int bishops, knights, and nobles, attended him in solemn Condon, procession. Seated on a fine courser royally ap- parelled, its bridle guided by one knight on foot, and BOOK preceded by another, bearing on high his sword, Richard moved on, with his young friends and cour- tiers immediately behind him, happy, honored, and applauded. Every portion of the train was led by its clarions and trumpets continually sounding. The citizens filled the public aqueducts with wine, which was allowed to flow profusely thro their pipes for three hours and a half, the time of the cavalcade. prev     next
