Note 5 — THE PRISONER OF CHILLON
Reading edition
{14} [Compare the epitaph on the monument of Richard Lord Byron, in the chancel of Hucknall-Torkard Church, "Beneath in a vault is interred the body of Richard Lord Byron, who with the rest of his family, being seven brothers," etc. (Elze's Life of Lord Byron, p. 4, note 1).
Compare, too, Churchill's Prophecy of Famine, lines 391, 392—
"Five brothers there I lost, in manhood's pride, Two in the field and three on gibbets died."
The Bonivard of history had but two brothers, Amblard and another.]
