THE ORLANDO FURIOSO.

LXXXVIII.

“That next the royal gonfalon, which stirred
“By fluttering wind, is borne towards the mount,
“Which on green field, three pinions of a bird
“Bears argent, speaks Sir Richard, Warwick’s count[22].
“The Duke of Gloucester’s blazon is the third,
“Two antlers of a stag, and demi-front;
“The Duke of Clarence shows a torch, and he
“Is Duke of York who bears that verdant tree.

LXXIX.

“Upon the Duke of Norfolk’s gonfalon
“You see a lance into three pieces broke;
“The thunder on the Earl of Kent’s; upon
“Pembroke’s a griffin; underneath a yoke;
“In Essex’s, conjoined, two snakes are shown:
“By yonder lifted balance is bespoke
“The Duke of Suffolk; and Northumbria’s Earl
“A garland does on azure field unfurl.

LXXX.

“Arundel’s Earl is yonder cavalier,
“Whose banner bears a foundering bark! In sight
“The next, is Berkeley’s noble Marquis; near
“Are March and Richmond’s Earls: the first on white
“Shows a cleft mount; a palm the second peer;
“A pine amid the waves the latter knight.
“The next of Dorset and Southampton’s town,
“Are earls; this bears a car, and that a crown.
