The following is the genealogy of Buckingham from Edward III.
Thomas Duke of Gloucester.
Earl of Buckingham=Eleanor Bohun, d. 1397.
r-, ' Ann=Edmund Earl of Stafford.
v > Humphrey Duke of Buckingham.
Humphrey died vita patris.
v * Harry, beheaded 1485, father of Edward.
17. —This antipathy, the narrow jealousy of aristocratic ar- rogance, was probably exasperated by the contempt with which it was retaliated. Sect. xi. page 74.
The origin of Buckingham's hatred of Wolsey has been ascrib...ed to various occurrences ; but I think it more likely to have arisen from that indescribable antipathy which may have been produced by the character of the Cardinal operat- ing on the pride and rash temperament of the duke. The incidents which are said to have caused their quarrel, I re- gard only as occurrences whieh served to publish the animo- sity of Buckingham. Some have said that the duke, holding the basin and towel to the emperor and the king at Canter- bury, was enraged at the Cardinal for also attempting to wash his fingers while he held it.
