In November, Richard despatched to England his squire, Philippe le Vache, with letters, assuring the Privy Coun- cil that he had made many journeys since he had taken the field ; marched to the city of Dublin, through the country of " his rebel Makemurgh, " or Mac Murragh ; and directed them to transmit supplies of treasure for the payment of the second quarter's wages of his army, and also to defray the cost of his housekeeping and atten- dants. Of these regal expenses, we may judge from the r...eport of Robert Irelefie, " clerk of the green cloth, " who averred that in England ten thousand persons came daily to the King's house. In the royal kitchen, three hundred servants were engaged in ministering to what the contemporary, Chaucer, styled " the pride of the table, " with varieties of meats, some painted and castellated in paper, others burning with wildfire, " with great precious- ness of vessels and curiosity of minstrelsy. " With his large army, skilled in all the military arts of the age, the King and his experienced English comman- ders were, however, unable, from the character of the country and the mode of warfare of the natives, to make any progress in subjecting the Irish beyond the frontier 268 RICHARD'S ACCOUNT OF THE IRISH.
