Chariot horses, brought, [103].

Doctor Percy in his notes on The Northumberland Household Book conjectures that a chariot "bore no resemblance to the modern carriage of that name, nor was intended for the same use, but was simply a large waggon drawn by six or seven of the stronger kind of horses, called, on that account, 'large trotting horses.'" Mr. Markland, in his dissertation on Carriages in England, Archæologia, vol. xx. p. 405, coincides with the view taken of the point by Bishop Percy, and has cited several proofs in confirmation of it. Unfortunately the entry in question throws no light on the point, for the words "the chariot horses," might be used in the modern acceptation or in that of those gentlemen, who are however borne out in their opinion by the authorities which they have adduced, and which are farther supported by the will of Bartholomew Lord Burghersh, in 1369, who speaks of the "chariot" which shall carry his corpse to the grave. Humphrey, Earl of Hereford, in 1861, left legacies to his "vj charetters."
