The ground was enclosed with a railing, seats were fixed around, and at the upper part was a chair of .state raised by a flight of steps, covered with tapestry, and over it a canopy of crim- son ornamented with gold. " DeMowbray's curiosity was excited : — " For what purpose, I pray you," said he, addressing one of the pursuivants, "are these tgO THE PILGRIM OP these preparations ? — some tournament, I judge, of which the king is to be umpire." *' Not so,'* answered the pursuivant, *^ you are d...oubtless a stranger, or you must have heard of the great cause depending, and which the king, unable to judge, hath ordered to be decided by single combat, which is to take place to-morrow.*' " I thank you, — I am a stranger at court. — The parties are of high rank, by the preparation ; and the cause, I suppose^ of consequence?'* " The parties are high and powerful; — the one is a woman, for whom, though a month hath elapsed since the proclamation hath been issued, yet no champion hath offered, though she is both young and handsome, and many think her cause just; but they either judge it not of consequence sufficient to venture their lives, or suppose it would set a bad precedent." ^^And THE CROSS.
