[Footnote 14: In a monograph on the 600th anniversary of the
Church of St. Mary at Celje (Celje, 1910) there is reproduced
a contemporary narrative of the funeral of Count Ulrich.
After describing how the widow, the noble lady Catharine, had
with dire wailing gone round the altar and offered sacrifice,
being followed by all the congregation, it proceeds: "Da diss
geschehen gieng wieder herfür ein geharnischter Mann, der
Namb zu sich Schilt, Helmb, Wappen, legte sich auf die Erden,
vnd striche gar lauth, ganz erbärmlich vnd gar Cläglich mit
heller stimbe drei mahl nacheinander Graffen zu Cilli, vnd
Nimmehr zerreiss die Panier, Zerbrach die Wappen da war
Allererst ein Clagen, dass es nicht einen Menschen, sondern
ein harten stain hete Erbarmen Mögen."]

[Footnote 18: His equipment, as M. Charles Loiseau (in _Le
Balkan Slave et la Crise Autrichienne_, Paris, 1898) remarks
very truly, "n'est pas banal." One of his historians relates
that he was furnished with a sword, a lance, javelins and
arrows trimmed with falcons' feathers, sometimes also with a
sabre and a small axe. He was garbed in a cloak of wolf's
skin, using the same skin for his cap, round which was wound
a dark piece of cloth. On his saddle was a scarf of silk. The
reins of his horse were gilded, and he carried in his right
hand a javelin of iron, gold and silver, weighing 150 lb.
(?), and this he balanced on the left side with a large skin
of wine. On his back was a magnificent cloak, and behind him
there was a folded tent.]
