As this sketch was not made so much for the chair itself as for its enriched back, no measurements have been taken; otherwise chairs, as such, depend very much upon exact dimensions for their proportions. This chair is at Exning in Suffolk. Now we shall suppose that you are going to make many such sketches both in museums and in country churches or houses.
The bride- ale the name that lurks in the modern shape of bridal was held at Exning in Cambridgeshire; bishops and abbots were guests of the excommunicated Roger; Waltheof was there, and many Breton comrades of Ralph. In their cups they began to plot how they might drive the King out of the kingdom.
And at Exning, between the fen and Newmarket Heath, "Was that bride-ale Which was man's bale." For there was matured the plot which Ivo and others had long seen brewing. William had made himself hateful to all men by his cruelties and tyrannies; and indeed his government was growing more unrighteous day by day. Let them drive him out of England, and part the land between them.
In the early part of the seventh century Anna was King of the East Angles; and Etheldreda, his daughter, was born at Exning, near Newmarket, a Suffolk parish, but detached from the main county and entirely surrounded by Cambridgeshire, about the year 630. When quite young there were many suitors for her hand, but she was altogether unwilling to accept any one of them.
