A crowd in the courtyard (Posted on 2006-06-02)

Arrange the names of each chess piece on a "chessboard" (an 8 x 8 grid) one letter per square, such that each piece is listed the number of times it exists under one player's control at the beginning of a normal game of chess.

Each piece's name must be written in full, the letters next to each other in a line across (left to right) or down (top to bottom), though pieces may share a letter where they cross.
