We have no intention
We have no intention MBT Shoes Clearance to do so, though we shall speak fully, telling all that can be told, and leaving conclusions to those who have more faith than we have in the very meagre and contradictory chronicles of our early annalists.In doing this, much must be undone; for every tale grows by telling: and much has MBT Shoes tory burch outlet been said and written of Kits Coty House that is altogether unworthy of serious consideration. Of its origin, or early history as a cromlech'or an altar, we really know nothing. It purports to be the burial-place of Catigern, the brother of Vortimer, who is reported to have been killed in battle near the spot on which it stands, about fourteen hundred years ago; and its name has been supposed to bear some reference to this old British chief.Few lights lead more widely astray than etymologies. We shall not, therefore, attempt at length any explanation of its present name of Kits Coty House. A recent antiquarian has decided it with greater satisfaction MBT to himself than to others. "Kits Coty House," he says, " is so called from Christopher, the name of an Vol. I., p. !old shepherd, who formerly made it his habitation for a number of years, from which it became distinguished by the vulgar, as 'Kits Cote,' or cottage; and not as erroneously supposed, from its having been the burial-place of Catigern, to whose name it bears no tory burch flats relation."Like some of our old Church Fathers, our writer appears to have received this article into his creed, for no other reason than that his elders and his betters doubted it. u I apprehend the name of Kits, or Keith, Coty House to have been given to this place," says Mr. Colebrooke, writing in , "from some old shepherd who kept sheep on this plain, and used to shelter himself from the weather on one side or the other of this monument; for from whatever quarter a storm came, he might here find shelter." One consideration apparently fatal to this conjecture ought not to be lost sight of. For no less tory burch sale than three centuries, the name of Kits Coty House has been applied to this pile. Lambarde, in his "Perambulation of Kent," written in , and first published six years afterwards, says that "these four stones were in his time tearmed of the common people here, Citscote house;" and Camden calls it "Keith Coty House." The first edition of his "Britannia" was published tory burch shoes in tory burch shoes , and he put his last hand to it in It does not seem likely, therefore, to say the least, that for so long a period as three hundred years, atraditional remembrance should have existed of this old shepherd Christopher.
