It was during the reign of King Edward III that Adam de Murimuth wrote
the history of King Edward II and part of the history of King Edward III.
He was a man who was engaged in public business. He was also an
Ambassador for the Clergy in England, and represented them to the Papel
Court at Avignon. He also acted in this office for the King to the Papal
Court at Rome. He was a Professor of Civil Law, and on account of this
qualification he was found useful as a servant of the government. It is
this Adam of Murimouth who wrote an account of a Festival and joust at
Windsor in 1344 in the Castle Park, for it was the King's wish to revive
in some measure, the Spirit of that ancient British King, Arthur, with
his Knights of that famous Round Table. So Adam, being the reporter of
that event, gives a description in his account of King Edward's Queen,
and all the other titled ladies who were present, besides the great crowd
of common people who had come to the Festival to eat, drink and be merry.
Strangely enough, this reporter did not confine his attention to making
accounts of royal occasions, for we find a record of his work in the
little village of Eaton Bishop: in Herefordshire, in the form of a
stained glass window, which he gave somewhere around the year 1330. A
true son of Adam.
