fuL * Leo voo Rotzmital, Note B.* p. 154. * Somner, 91.
2i8 The CrypU guardian priest exhibited to tfaem the various relics confided to his especial charge. But the one which surpassed all others was the rusty fragment of Le Bret's sword, which was presented to each in turn to be kissed The foreign pil- grims, by a natural mistake, inferred from the sight of the sword, that the martyr had suffared death by beheading.' They were next led down the steps on the right to the crypt, where a new set ...of guardians received them. On great occasions the gloom of the old Norman aisles was broken by the long array of lamps suspended from the rings still seen in the roof, each surrounded by its crown of thorns.
Here were exhibited some of the actual relics of St Thomas ^-part of his skuU, cased in silver, and also presented to be kissed ; and hanging aloft the celebrated shirt * and drawers of h^-cloth, which had struck such awe into the hearts of the monks on the night of his death.3 This was all that ordi- nary pilgrims were allowed to see ; but, if they were persons of rank, or came with high recommendations, they were afterwards permitted to return, and the Prior himself with lights exhibited the wonders of the Chapel of Our Lady Undercroft, carefully barred with iron gates, but within glittering with treasures beyond any other like shrine in England Some portion of the stars of bri^^t enamel may still be seen on the roo£ Emerging from the crypt the pilgrims mounted the steps to the choir, on the north side of which the great mass of general relics were exhibited.
