And York, on the haughty summons of Northumberland and Clifford, declares (3 Hen. VI., act i. sc. 4, l. 35),—
“My ashes, as the Phœnix, may bring forth
A bird that will revenge upon you all.”
In the Phœnix and the Turtle (lines 21 and 49, vol. ix. p. 671), are the lines,—
“Here the anthem doth commence:
Love and constancy is dead;
Phœnix and the turtle fled
In a mutual flame from hence.
