Text Appearing Before Image: nial festivals, at whichwere assembled full seven hundred knights, who held their estates of the Nevill family:here, at intervals, when the laughter and loud merriment of the feast were suspended, theminstrel told his legendary tale, and aroused the lofty valour of the warriors, as he sweptwith aged hand over the sounding strings, and alternately sunk the chords to the ecstaciesof love, or swelled them to the thunders of battle. The different towers are said to derive their names from the various distinguishedpersonages to whom, during the periods of civil war and Scottish incursions, theirgovernment was consigned. The dining-room in Cliffords tower is ornamented witha large music-piece, containing the group of figures placed by Rubens in the centre of the Marriage-feast of Canaan, in which he introduces himself and his contemporariesas musical performers. In this room, also, and in other parts of the Castle, are manyexcellent portraits of personages connected with the present family.
