That she should Ride naked through the face of the City and that openly at high noon day which she accordingly did And stripping her self of all her Garments looses the tresses of her hair which on every side so covered her nakedness that no part of her Body was uncivil to sight by which means she redeemed their former Priviledges I do not say but some Magistrates of this City have shewed greater respect to their Soveraigns for as I have heard that a Maior of Coventry riding before Queen Elizabeth she being in Progress to usher her into the City the weather being hot his Horse attempted to drink at the Foard but the Maior checking him several times the Queen called to him saying Mr. Maior Mr. Maior Let your Horse Drink But he modestly replied May it please your Majesties Horse to Drink first The City of Coventry is Governed yearly by a Maior and 2 Bailiffs And the Arms of the City is Party per Pale Gules and Vert upon a Hill Proper An Elephant Passant Argent with a Castle on his back Or.
