[The title CLARENCE was, as we learn from Camden (_Britannia_, edit.
Gough, vol. ii. pp. 73, 74.), derived from the honour of Clare, in
Suffolk; and was _first_ borne by Lionel Plantagenet, third son of
Edward III., who married Elizabeth de Burgh, daughter and heir of
William, Earl of Ulster, and obtained with her the honour of Clare. He
became, _jure uxoris_, Earl of Ulster, and was created, September 15,
1362, Duke of Clarence.]
