Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from De Foix, or Sketches of the Manners and Customs of the Fourteenth Century, Vol. 2 of 3: An Historical Romance
The public functionaries of the various towns in'the vicinity, and the monks and nuns of cer tain convents, were all busily preparing to join the procession that was to follow the consecrated banner of the Virgin to her shrine at St. Mary's. And although Eustace'had observed the vigil of arms in the church of the Friars Minor, on account of its proximity to the castle, it was in the great church of the Benedictines, that he was destined on this memorable day, to receive the honour of knighthood.
