Note 188a — XII—THE PRACTICAL AFFAIRS OF LIFE

Reading edition

There is an admirable discussion of the question involved in the poet’s heraldry in Herald and Genealogist, i. 510. Facsimiles of all the documents preserved in the College of Arms are given in Miscellanea Genealogica et Heraldica, 2nd ser. 1886, i. 109. Halliwell-Phillipps prints imperfectly one of the 1596 draft-grants, and that of 1599 (Outlines, ii. 56, 60), but does not distinguish the character of the negotiation of the earlier year from that of the negotiation of the later year.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
