The famous white swan badge of the Bohuns (fig. [91]) is found perched upon the shield in the seal of Humphrey Bohun earl of Hereford and Essex, 1298 (pl. [XIX] B). Later on its neck was encircled by a crown for a collar, with a chain attached, and in this form it appears on the seals of Thomas of Woodstock, who married Eleanor Bohun (fig. [86]), and on that lady's brass at Westminster. It was also borne by the sons and descendants of King Henry IV by his wife Mary Bohun.
