DU CHASTELET DE LUCANZY, HIPPOLITE.

A panegyrick to the memory of His Grace Frederick Duke of

Schonberg - London: 1690. 4to. pp. 40. A very good copy in

modern quarter calf. Wing D 2417A.

A translation from the original French edition published at The

Hague in 1690. In command of William’s land forces he was killed

at the Battle of the Boyne but his chaplain records that at least

he lived long enough “to see .... the success of his Royal Master”

.... and to know that he had been “an instrument of that victory

which settles him in his Kingdoms.” Relics of the Marshal have

been handed down and are still in the possession of “The Knot”,

the Friendly Brothers of St Patrick who commemorate him with an

annual dinner. Sweeney 1586.
