It is usual f ur two Gentlemen of the Court to walk in the procession as Dl'KKS or I*oitsUNDY and Guienne, habited in the ancient dress of the Ducal Peers of France • • . in representation, as is stated in a book of the age of Hen. VII, ' of tin Kin ft MM Duchesses of Gycn and Normandie.' Of the first appearance of these characters iu out coronations I have not found ajJJ account, but it may be conjectured that thej were introduced after the conquests of I'M. Ill, and for the purpose of perpetuating tte clauns of our Norman and Angevine Princes." c j m ^™ patent, engraved in facsimile by James Iiaaire, was published by the Record
