WINDOW XIII.

The _East Window_ is quite different. For one thing it is much larger, and has nine vertical divisions instead of five. Here, in the tracery, in addition to other heraldic badges, is the "Dragon of the great Pendragonship," holding a banner with the arms of Henry VII. Also there is seen the ostrich feather of the Prince of Wales with the motto "Ich Dien."[7]

In this window there are no Messengers with inscriptions; only six scenes from the Pa.s.sion beginning at the bottom left hand corner, and each occupying three lights instead of two. In the first three lights below the transom is the Ecce h.o.m.o; in the centre three, Pilate washing his hands, the final moment in the trial. Our Lord is represented in the centre light with his back to the spectator. In the three on the right is Christ bearing the Cross. Here is shown Saint Veronica kneeling and offering to our Lord a handkerchief to wipe his face. The legend goes on to say that, when he returned it to her, his face was impressed upon it; and it is now one of the four great relics preserved in the piers of the dome of St. Peter's at Rome.

Above the transom, the left three lights contain the Nailing to the Cross. In the centre three is Christ crucified between the thieves. At the base of the Cross may be seen our Lord's robe on the ground, and two figures kneeling upon it and pointing down to pieces of paper or dice, a scene depicting the fulfilment of the prophecy: "They parted my garments among them and upon my vesture they did cast lots." In the right three lights the body of Christ is taken down from the Cross.

[M] There was originally only half a window here. The lower half was intended to have a building (which was in part begun) ab.u.t.ting on it.

This building was removed in 1827, and the lower part of the window opened up. The old gla.s.s was moved down to the lower lights in 1841, and in 1845 the gla.s.s which now occupies the upper main lights inserted by Hedgeland. The only thing that can be said in its favour is its vivid colours.
