The Dacre knot is less a knot than a badge, consisting of an escallop shell linked by a cord with a ragged staff or a billet (Fig. 270). In the same way a sickle and a garb are tied together in the badge of Lord Hastings, and are suggestive of the way in which initial letters of names were linked with each other and with badges in the splendid pageants of the sixteenth century. The Lacey knot is shown at Fig. 271. LOZENGE.--Fig. 272. [Illustration: FIG. 272.] [Illustration: FIG. 273.] [Illustration: FIG. 274.] MANCHE OR MAUNCHE.--A severely conventionalized form of a sleeve, derived from the actual sleeve which was worn at a tournament, as a ladies’ favour, floating from the shoulder of a favoured knight. The illustrations are from the fifteenth century seal of Lord Hastings (Fig. 273), and from a MS. of the following century relating to the same family (Fig. 274). MULLET.--A five-pointed star-like figure whose name is derived from Mollette, the rowel of a spur (Fig. 293). PALL.--An heraldic figure which occurs in the arms of certain Archbishoprics, being indeed a representation of the Pallium, which is an especial vestment of an Archbishop. Mr. Everard Green, Rouge Dragon Pursuivant, has fully dealt with this in an admirable monograph which is among the Archaeologia of the Society of Antiquaries, from which it appears certain that the pall is not the arms of a particular see, but is an ensign of the ecclesiastical rank of an archbishop. PHEON.--The head of a dart, the so-called broad arrow of Government stores. It usually has its inner edges engrailed, but this is not essential any more than are the rigidly straight lines with which it is generally drawn. There are many other forms in early use that are much more satisfactory, such as Fig. 275, which is from an early sixteenth century MS. The pheon is understood to be point downwards as in the example, unless it is otherwise described. [Illustration: FIG. 275.]
