Antiquity of Archery.

The use of the bow may be traced TO
the remotest antiquity. The first notice
which we find of it is in Genesis xxi,
90, where it is said that Ishmael became
an archer 1t was introduced into Eng
land in the reign of Egbert the Saxon,
but was not used at martial weapon
till the reign of Edward l. The period at
which the longbow attained its meridian
fame may be fixed i'll the reign OF
Henry V, whose archers destroyed the
whole French cavalry, clothed in COM
plete steel, with their yard long arrows.
At the battle of Flodden Field also the
English archers made sad havoc. Shoot
ing with the bow was an extremely
fashionable amusement in the reign Of
Henry VIII, and Holinshed reports that
the prince shot as well as any of his
guard After the siege of Devices in the
civil wars, 1647, the bow, as a military
weapon, was entirely laid aside. Arch
cry derives its name from the bow being,
when drawn. in the shape of an arch.
