Excerpt: ... diverged longitudinally, diagonally, and transversely, from slender shafts, which rose from the ground in each corner. But, some time in the sixteenth century, it was destroyed, in order to form a room for the greater convenience of the ringers, helow that anciently used by them. The floor of this new room intersects the three windows of the Tower; and two of them were, therefore, built up. The modern ceiling is still elliptical, but is formed of wood and plaster. The removal of this stone ceiling must greatly have impaired the firmness of the Tower. This, indeed, is painfully evident, in the long cracks which have since appeared in its sides. Although the loftiness entrance of the Tower has thus been diminished, it is still considerable. The whole internally has been plastered and whitewashed. The floor is flagged. The staircase in the south-west angle, forming the ascent to the Tower, is a very peculiar structure, and forms one of the greatest curiosities of which the town can now boast. Staircases of this construction are said to be exceedingly rare, even upon the continent. It consists of two spiral flights of steps, winding, one above the other, round the same central pillar or newel, so that the floor of one forms the roof of the other. The whole is enclosed within a cylinder six feet in diameter, and is lighted from without by long apertures or loop-holes. The reader will gain a clearer idea of this piece of architecture than could be conveyed in a lengthened description, from the engraving which is given of it. It will be evident that two persons might ascend or descend, at the same time, and not see each other, provided they took different stairs. One of the stairs, of one-hundred and six steps, opening below in the Church-yard, ..

Download or read book The Songs and Travels of a Tudor Minstrel written by Andrew Taylor and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2012 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reconstruction of the life and works of a sixteenth-century minstrel, showing the tradition to be flourishing well into the Tudor period. Richard Sheale, a harper and balladeer from Tamworth, is virtually the only English minstrel whose life story is known to us in any detail. It had been thought that by the sixteenth century minstrels had generally been downgradedto the role of mere jesters. However, through a careful examination of the manuscript which Sheale almost certainly "wrote" (Bodleian Ashmole 48) and other records, the author argues that the oral tradition remained vibrant at this period, contrary to the common idea that print had by this stage destroyed traditional minstrelsy. The author shows that under the patronage of Edward Stanley, earl of Derby, and his son, from one of the most important aristocratic families in England, Sheale recited and collected ballads and travelled to and from London to market them. Amongst his repertoire was the famous Chevy Chase, which Sir Philip Sidney said moved his heart "more than witha trumpet". Sheale also composed his own verse, including a lament on being robbed of 60 on his way to London; the poem is reproduced in this volume. ANDREW TAYLOR lectures in the Department of English, University of Ottawa.
