106. oldal - From the woodcut given, the last abode of Joanna of Navarre, queen of England, resembles what children call an apple turnover. It was her coffin which rested on that of her lord. " Not being able to take off the lid of the large coffin, as a great portion of its length was under the tomb, they sawed an aperture in the lid. Immediately under the coffin board was found a quantity of...

The skin of the chin was entire, of the consistence and thickness of the upper leather of a shoe, brown and moist ; the beard thick and matted, of a deep russet colour.

Having thus ascertained that the body of the King was actually deposited in the tomb, and that it had never been disturbed, the wrappers were laid again upon the face, the lead drawn back over them, the lid of the coffin put on, the rubbish filled in, and the marble pavement replaced immediately.

On the attainder of that nobleman in 1603, it was granted by James I. to Robert Cecil, Lord Essenden (afterwards Earl of Salisbury). From the possession of Cecil it passed to that of Thomas Lord Wootton, of Marley.
