=192=: 10. =A roll of their best Virginia.= Tobacco for smoking was made into ropes or short rolls, and had to be cut up for the pipe. =192=: 16. =Sir Cloudesley Shovel.= A famous English admiral, who took a prominent part in the great victory of the combined Dutch and English fleets over the French, off La Hogue, in May, 1692. He was afterward drowned at sea; but his body was recovered and buried in the Abbey. The monument to Sir Cloudesley Shovel Addison, in No. 26, criticizes as in bad taste, and with very good reason. =192=: 18. =Busby's tomb.= Richard Busby (1606-1695), for fifty-five years headmaster of Westminster school. He used to say that "the rod was his sieve, and that whoever could not pass through that was no boy for him." He persistently kept his hat on when Charles II came to visit his school, saying it would never do for his boys to imagine there was anybody superior to himself. =192=: 23. =The little chapel on the right hand.= St. Edmund's, in the south aisle of the choir. =192=: 26. =The lord who had cut off the King of Morocco's head.= An inscription recording this feat--probably legendary--formerly hung over the tomb of Sir Bernard Brocas, who was beheaded on Tower Hill, 1400. =193=: 1. =Cecil upon his knees.= William Cecil, Lord Burleigh, Secretary of State to Queen Elizabeth. He is represented "on his knees" at the magnificent tomb of his wife and daughter. This tomb, however, is not in the chapel of St. Edmund, but in the adjoining chapel of St. Nicholas. =193=: 3. =Who died by the prick of a needle.= This story was formerly told of Lady Elizabeth Russell, whose richly decorated tomb is in St. Edmund's chapel. =193=: 10. =The two coronation chairs.= In that chapel of Edward the Confessor which is the heart of the Abbey. One chair is said to have been that of Edward the Confessor; in it every sovereign of England from Edward I to Edward VII has been crowned. The other was made for Mary when she and her husband William were jointly crowned king and queen of England. =193=: 11. =The stone ... brought from Scotland.= The "stone of Scone," traditionally reputed to be that on which Jacob rested his head when he had the vision of the ladder reaching up to heaven. It was brought from Ireland to Scone in Scotland, and all Scottish kings were crowned on it there till Edward I of England brought it to London in 1296, and ordered it enclosed "in a chair of wood," and placed in the Abbey. =193=: 25. =Edward the Third's sword.= "The monumental sword that conquered France," as Dryden calls it, stands between the coronation chairs. =194=: 2. =The Black Prince.= Edward, Prince of Wales, eldest son of Edward III, who died in 1376 before his father. He is buried, not in the Abbey, but in the cathedral at Canterbury.
