Imperial, money lost by the king at the game of, 265, 278.
Of this game nothing is known, and perhaps these entries are the
earliest, if not the only instances in which it is alluded to.
Instruments brought to the king, 26, 210.
Clearly musical instruments. Henry's attachment, and indeed
proficiency in music, has been established by a note to Mr. Ellis's
valuable _Original Letters_, Second Series, vol. i. p. 271,
272, where an account of His Majesty's musical instruments from
the Harl. MS, 1419, A. is printed, and which are satisfactorily
explained by that eminent music master, Mr. Ayrton.

filled the office of Comptroller of the Household, and Constable of
the Tower of London, and was a Privy Councillor. He died in 1541.
---- Anthony, 226, 229.
Probably the individual whom Boswell, in his _Lives of the Knights
of the Garter**_, confounds with Sir William Kingston, and who
was provost martial to the forces sent to quell the rebellion
in Cornwall in 1547. See some remarks relative to the error in
question in the _Testamenta Vetusta_, p. 693, and in Lodge's
_Illustrations of British History_, vol. i. p. 16. Note.

One of the Gentlemen of the Privy Chamber, and evidently a
particular favourite of the King's.
