Estridge

Prince Edward all in gold, as he great Jove had been,
The Mountfords all in plumes, like estridges were seen.
Drayton—Poly-Olbion. St. 22.

All furnish’d, all in arms;
All plum’d, like estridges that with the wind
Baited, like eagles having lately bath’d.
Henry IV. Pt. I. Act IV. Sc. 1. L. 97.
