Chapter 16
Integrating the Woodvilles â 1464 to 1465
Also, the King invited my lord and all his noble attendants to the table where he usually dined with his courtiers. And one of the Kingâs greatest earls sat at the Kingâs table, upon the kingâs stool, in the place of the king; and my lord sat at the same table, only two steps below him. Then all the honors which were due to the King had to be paid to the Earl who sat in his place, and also to my lord, and it is incredible what ceremonies we observed there.1
Tetzel, in the entourage of the Lord of Rožmitál, described Edward IVâs court; the most obvious candidate for the single mighty earl, sitting in the Kingâs place, was the widower Worcester, both Lord Steward of the Household and Constable of the Tower.
