In honour of which, this Sir Willliam was with them made Knights of the Sepulchre. He died in England, and was buried in the Abbey of Pershore, where his tomb is still remaining, and the only monument there, which was not demolished at the siddolution of abbeys in the reign of King Henry VIII; and it is observable, that the shield on his effigies is plain without any arms, according to the custom of the most ancient times.
