Note 7 — Chapter CX
C. H. (Charles Henry) Tawney translation
Cp. Holinshed’s account of Richard II’s coronation. “The Archbishop, having stripped him, first anointed his hands, after his head, breast, shoulders, and the joints of his arms, with the sacred oil, saying certain prayers, and in the meanwhile did the choir sing the anthem, beginning ‘Unxerunt regem Salomonem.’ The above quotation comes from the Clarendon Press Edition of King Richard II, p. 137, sub calcem.
