This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1838 Excerpt: . A large staff, with a dove on the top, formerly thought to be all of gould, but upon triale found to be, the lower part wood within and silver gilt without, weighing in all 27 ounces, valued at 351. This seems to accord with the verge or staff of gilt wood, the ligneam virgam deauratam, of Sporley. One small staff with a fioure de luce on the topp, formerly thought to be all gould, but upon triale found to be iron within and silver gilt without, valued only at 21. 10s. This is the other of iron ( alteram ferream ), named by Sporley. One staff of black and white ivory, with a dove on the top with binding and foot of gold, valued at 4-l. 10s., completes the number of five sceptres or rods given by Sporley, but he mentions particularly that two were for the Queen, and Mr. Taylor therefore appropriates to her the silver gilt sceptre with the dove, and the staff of black and white ivory with the dove also: but then what are we to do for St. Edward s staff, which before the Rebellion was accounted part of the Regalia, and in commemoration of which the one now in the Tower was made? Amongst the Regalia in the Jewel House in 1649, besides two sceptres weighing 18 ounces, and valued at 601., there was a long rod of silver gilt, weighing 1 lb. 5 oz.; and in Hollar s print of the Procession to the Abbey of Charles lI., King Edward s staff is represented as a plain long rod only. That described by Sandford in the His tory of the Coronation of James II., is the one still in existence, with a mound and cross-at the top. On his great seal the Confessor bears in one hand a sceptre or staff with a dove on it, about the size of a moderately fat goose; but in the Bayeux Tapestry, where Har.<
