The first of those wearing satin tunics, having bowed deeply, said,--
"My lord, I am Clarenceaux, Second King-at-Arms of England. I am the
officer who arranges the obsequies of nobles below the rank of peers. I
am at your lordship's disposal."
The other wearer of the satin tunic bowed and spoke thus,--
"My lord, I am Norroy, Third King-at-Arms of England. Command me."
The second row, erect and without bowing, advanced a pace. The
right-hand man said,--
"My lord, we are the six Dukes-at-Arms of England. I am York."
Then each of the heralds, or Dukes-at-Arms, speaking in turn, proclaimed
his title.
"I am Lancaster."
"I am Richmond."
"I am Chester."
"I am Somerset."
"I am Windsor."
