Hawthorn: this bush is used in some few instances on account of its name. It was also adopted as a badge by Henry VII., and described as a hawthorn-bush regally crowned. The white-thorn is found on the arms of Bishop ALDRICH, and the may-flowers probably represent the flowers of the bush. It may be fructed, or flowered, and the leaves also occur.
