"IcH DTEE"-K. T., City. ''Ich Dien," the
motto of the Prince of Wales is German and
means ''I serve" The usually accepted story
of its origin is that it was in the fourteenth
century the motto of the Kings of Bohemia
and that at the battle of Crecy in 1345 the
Black Prince killed the King of Bohemia, took
the motto which the latter wore on his helmet
and assumed IL himself to indicate that he,
too, served his country. An English writer says
the statement that these words were the motto
OF the King of Bohemia does not rest upon
good authority and goes on to say ::
"fhe three plumes were certainly not
the crest of the King of Bohemia, which
was an eagles wing. Verstegan, with great
probability, makes it purely Anglo-Saxon. Ie

further says 1t was pronounced we should

says The Prince of Wales, the King of
England's eldest son, is wont TO use for his

and tn were in our ancient language in
differently used. 1t is quite clear, however,
that after the battle OF Crecy, Edward the
Black Prince adopted the plume and motto as
crest, and it has since been borne by the
heirs TO the crown of England as
is that Edward / conquered the people of
Wales after long ana stubborn fight on the
part of the latter. To win the favor of these
unwilling subjects he promised to give them
for ruler prince who was born in Wales
and who could not speak word of English.
A few days after this promise was made the
English Queen-then staying at Carnarvon,
Wales. to be near the King-gave birth 10 a
son. and this infant the King brought before
the Assembly, saying to them in Welsh, 'Eich
dydn, meaning "behold the man." Whether
this be true or not, it is a historical fact that
the young English Prince was at that time and
under those circumstances born in Wales, and
from that fact the heir apparent TO the Eng
lish throne has ever since had the title of
Prince of Wales.
