But fome doubts having arifen
about the affignment of it, I have engraved, in PI. LXXXIX. a birds eye view of

He is of opinion that the figure on the left hand is of greater antiquity than the
other two, and was placed here clofe to the wall prior to them.
His reafon for
this conjedlure is, that the left fhoulder and leg have been cut away to make
room for the two North pillars of the centre arch, and part of the right
fhoulder cut off to make room for the middle figure.
Another remarkable
tircumftance is, that the hair on the left fide of the mans face, and of the
other womans, and the left tides of their coronets, appear not to have been

This
was not done, however, while he lived.
We know for certain, that near
forty years after the body was Hill at Windfor; for Henry VIII. in his laft

gave direction, that the tombes and altars of Henry VI. and alfo of Edward IV.

1487 he vifited in perfon the antient nunnery of St. Radegund at Cambridge.
It is probable the many diforders he found in that houfe firft fuggefted to him
the thought of fupprefling it, and converting it into a college of ftudents,
;

number of fcholars, to be called the college

mailer, fix fellows, and a certain

of the Blefled Virgin Mary, St. John the Evangelift, and St. Radegund
but
having added to thefe names that of Jefus, it was, even in his time, commonly
called Jefus College. His device was a Cock of which allulion he was extremely
fond, as appears by his placing the figure of that bird, with moral fentences on
fcrolls, in almolt every part of the many and expenfive public buildings which
he erected, and in his works printed by Pinfon and Winkin de Worde.
He adorned almoft all his manors with new buildings, and raifed from the
ground a noble hall and gallery in his* palace at Ely, and the remainder of
his revenue he fpent in aCts of hofpitality and beneficence.
He died at his
caftle of Wifbech, 061 1, 1500.
He was not only a conliderable writer, but an excellent architect, which occafioned his being made comptroller of the royal works and buildings under
king Henry VII. and his chapel abovementioned is a noble fpecimen of his
fkill in architecture, though at prefent it lies fadly mangled by the fanatical zeal
of tumultuous reformers in the fame negleCted ftate which gave occafion above a
century ago to bilhop Godwin to exprefs his wifhes that fome perfon of the
many who were benefited by biffiop Alcocks munificence would have the generolity to pay for its reparation.
Muff I be compelled to add to the bifliops
regret a comparifon of the different feelings of the two Univerfities, with refpeCt to the monuments of their founders, and to extend the invidious comparifon to the memoirs of their lives alfo ?
Bales character of this prelate is, that from his earlieft youth he applied
himfelf to learning and devotion
in which laft he made fuch progrefs that no
perfon in England had a greater reputation for fanCtity of manners.
His whole
life was a courfe of the ftriCteft temperance, mortification, abftinence and
