    Form in Sixteenth-Century Scottish Inventories: the Worst Sort of Bed Michael Pearce

    Beds of ‘Chapel’ Form in Sixteenth-Century Scottish Inventories: The Worst Sort of Bed michael pearce 1 Lit parement: a ‘sperver’ with a corona over a bed without a tester or celour. Bibliothèque de Genève, MS Fr. 165 fol. 4, Charles VI and Pierre Salmon, c.1415 Several sixteenth-century Scottish inventories mention ‘chapel beds’. A chapel bed was constructed at Dunfermline palace in November 1600 for Anne of Denmark prior to the birth of Charles I. This article proposes that these were beds provided with a sus - pended canopy with curtains which would surround any celour or tester (Figure 1). The ‘chapel’ was perhaps equivalent with the English ‘sperver’ or ‘sparver,’ a term not much used in Scotland in the sixteenth century, and more commonly found in older English texts of the late Middle Ages. The curtains of the medieval sperver hung from a rigid former, which could be hoop-like, a roundabout or corona, suspended from the chamber ceiling and perhaps principally constructed around a wooden cross like a simple chandelier.1 This canopy with its two curtains drawn back was given the name sperver from a fancied resemblance to a type of hawk, while also bearing a strong resemblance to a bell tent. A form of the word used in Scotland in 1474 — sparwart — is close to the etymological root of the word for hawk.2 The rigid former was called 1 Leland (1770), pp. 301–02. 2 Treasurer’s Accounts, vol. 1 (1877), p. 141; Eames (1977), pp. 75 and 83; see Oxford English Dictionary, ‘Sparver’ and ‘Sperver’.

[Edin.] Printed at the University Press by T. and A. Constable for the Scottish History Society 1907 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ix THE HOUSE BOOKE OF ACCOMPS .... 1 INVENTORY OF OCHTERTYRE FURNITURE . 247 GLOSSARY 253 INTRODUCTION We know far too little of social life in Scotland during those days when modern conditions were a-making. No wonder the simple annals of the poor, or even the sordid chronicle of burgher money-making, shows only blank pages except under the modern search-light of realistic fiction. But some voice might have spoken from the baronial mansions where alone cultured intercourse was possible, at least during the eighteenth century, when wit found an audience everywhere and elegance a vogue. Modern social writers, indeed, have composed for our diversion, not enlightenment, sketches filled in with such Bembrandtesque shadows of dirt and debauch as prove the superiority of the modern superior person. How our nearer forefathers themselves figured as verbal artists of character and thought, their own or that of others, few letters or memoirs tell us. Thfe standard of living and the economy of the households have been but partially disclosed in default of contemporary material. For eighteenth century ‘gentility’ was abhorrent of personal portraiture as savouring of vulgar impertinence. The grand style was the only mode, but even of that we have not much to show. All the more to be prized, therefore, is such a veritable human document as is still preserved at Ochtertyre, in Strathearn, and generously 1 This volume belongs to a group of Scottish History Society publications all notable for their distinctively human tone, and all illustrative of each other.

H. MILLAR, F.S.A.Scot. EDINBURGH • T £) 0: L£ Printed at the University Press by T. and A. Constable x ou T for the Scottish History Society 1898 PREFATORY NOTE The manuscript Compt Bulk of David Wedderburne belonged to the late Mr. A. C. Lamb, Dundee, and a few of the historical entries were used in Mr. Lamb’s volume, entitled Dundee: its Quaint and Historic Buildings. The editor assisted Mr. Lamb in the preparation of the literary portion of that volume, and it occurred to him that the Compt Buik would afford precisely the kind of material suitable for a volume such as the Scottish History Society would publish. On making the suggestion to Mr. Lamb, he at once adopted it, and placed the manuscript at the disposal of the Society. He gave free access to his extensive collection of documents relating to the history of Dundee, and rendered valuable assistance in other ways. As the Editor had made voluminous notes in the charter- room of Dundee when engaged upon his Boll of Eminent Burgesses of Dundee, 1513-1887, he was able to utilise these in identifying many of the persons mentioned in the Compt Buik. He has specially to acknowledge the courtesy of Alexander Wedderburn, Esq., Q.C., London, who kindly pro- vided the material for the account of the Wedderburn Family, which forms a separate portion of the Introduction.
