During the attack on Kenilworth castle by Henry III the priory sustained considerable damage from the lawless and demands made extortionate upon it by the soldiers. It appears, however, to have soon regained its prosperity, and possessed considerable power, till the dissolution of monasteries in the reign of Henry VIII. Now its Gothic archways are crumbling into dust—the cloisters can be disting(uished only by a few moss grown stones, the old chapel, which once resounded with the pious unonks’ melodious voices, is silent, save for the tinkling of a sheep’s or the cry of some wild bird, and all walls are overgrown with a tangled mass of ivy.—London Cor.
