Note 485 — Chapter XXIII · MORALITIES, PUPPET-PLAYS, AND PAGEANTS
Reading edition
Herbert, i. 457. The same writer quotes a payment from the drapers’ accounts of 1516 of £13 4s. 7d. for ‘Sir Laurens Aylmer’s Pageant.’ But this cannot have been intended for a lord mayor’s show, for Aylmer’s only mayoralty was in 1507-8, and a grocer, not a draper, was mayor in 1515-6 and in 1516-7.
