other good writers makes her extraordinarily iealous of them as neuer daring to be absent from them the sustenance she receiueth from the male Bird being insufficient for their nourishing with her beake she launceth her brest and so supplieth that want with her owne bloud Our cited Authors variously affirme that this loue and cherishing of them lasteth the space of a whole yeare by which time they become strong and able for flight and then though they suruiue the Damme dyeth An excellent type of gouernment in a Magistrate who at his meere entrance into his yeares Office becommeth a nursing father of the Family which though hee bred not yet by his best endeuour hee must labour to bring vp If his loue and delight be such to the Common-wealth as that of the Pellican to her young ones by broken sleeps daily and nightly cares that the very lest harm should not happē to his charge then doth he iustly answere to our Embleme and as of her so of him it may well be sayd his brest and bowels of true zeale and affection are alwaies open to feed and cherish them euen with his best endeuor and diligence to the expiration of his yeare And then though the maine Authoritie of Gouernement in him may be sayd to dye yet it suruiueth in other Pellicans of the same brood and so it reacheth to them in the same manner And because the Leman Tree by the affirmation of Iulius Solinus Polyhistor Dioscorides Pomponius Mela Petrus Mexius and Antonius Verdierus both in fruite flowers rinde pith and iuyce are admirable preseruers of the sences in man restoring comforting and relieuing any the least decay in them wee seated the fiue Sences about the Tree in their best and liueliest representations as fitly iumping with our Morall methode Our next deuice before it be marshalled in due ranke and order is a goodly Bower shaped in forme of a flowrie Arbour and adorned with all the Scutchions of Armes of so many worthy men as haue beene Lord Maiors of the Fishmongers Company and each mans name truely set downe on them It is appointed first to stand in Paules Church-yard And at such a place as is thoght most conuenient In this Bower is a faire Tombe whereon in Armour lyeth the imaginary body of Sir William Walworth sometime twise Lord Maior of London and a famous Brother of the Fishmongers Company The reason of this conceit aimeth at that tempestuous and troublesome time of King Richard the Second and the fourth yeare of his Raigne whose life Crowne and Dignitie next vnder Gods omnipotent power were manfully defended and preserued by that worthy man Walworth Suppose his Marble Statue after the manner of Knightly buriall to lye vpon the Tombe and both it and the Bower to be worthily attended by those fiue Knights in Armour and mounted on Horsebacke that were Knighted with Sir William in the field after he had slaine the proud insulting Rebell Captaine and ring-leader to all the rest Sixe Trumpetters well mounted and appointed with Trumpet banners of the Companies Armes and a gallant guard of Halberdiers being 24. in number with watchet silke Coats hauing the Fishmongers Armes on the brest Sir William Walworths on the backe and the Citties on the left arme white Hats and Feathers and goodly Halbards in their hands these likewise haue their rancke and place neere to the Tombe and Bower Londons Genius a comely Youth attired in the shape of an Angell with a golden Crowne on his head golden Wings at his backe bearing a golden Wand in his hand sits mounted on Horsebacke by the Bower with an Officer at Armes bearing the Rebels head on Walworths Dagger So soone as the Lord Maior is come neere and way made for his better attention the Genius speaketh the Trumpets sound their seuerall Surden flourishes Walworth ariseth and is conuaid on Horsebacke from the Bower as you may better perceiue by the speeches apted for the purpose The Bower and Tombe are likewise borne along before him for his more conuenient returne to rest againe Wee come now to our last inuention in this our Triumphall Progresse memorizing Londons great day of deliuerance and the Fishmongers Fame for euer in Anno 1381. and on Corpus Christi day in West Smithfield where the like number of Rebels as then were neuer assembled Leauing the matter a case of desperate Rebellion the manner a most base and barbarous kinde of proceeding to the great disturbance of the King and State and vnauoydable ruine of this Cittie but for the good Angell of defence then guarding it and the worthy Lord Maior made the second instrument let vs imagine though not in the magnificent forme as then it was done yet according to our compasse of performance that whatsoeuer hath formerly been sayd concerning Walworths reuiuing at the Tombe his Royall attending and the beautifull Monument following is all but a shaddow of that triumphant victorie in our aptest allusion Our Pageant Chariot is drawne by two Mare-men two Mare-mayds as being the supporters to the Companies coate of Armes In the highest seate of eminence sits the triumphing Angell who that day smote the enemy by Walworths hand and laid all his proud presuming in the dust With one hand King Richard sitting in a degree beneath her she holds his Crowne on fast that neither forraine Hostilitie nor home-bred Trecherie should euer more shake it In the other hand hee holds his striking Rodde inferring thus much thereby By mee Kings reigne and their enemies are scattered All the forefront is beautified with Royall Vertues as Truth Vertue Honor Temperance Fortitude Zeale Equity Conscience beating downe Treason and Mutinie Behind and on the sides sits Iustice Authority Lawe Vigilancy Peace Plentie and Discipline as best props and pillers to any Kingly estate These as all the rest are best obserued by their seuerall Emblems and properties borne by each one and their adornments answerable to them in like manner Hauing thus briefly described the order of the daies seruice insomuch as appertaineth to my charge and place not omitting the Fishing-Busse Dolphine Mer-man and Mer-mayd vpon the water first and afterward marshalled in such forme as you haue heard on land wee come to set downe the Speeches according as they are appointed to be spoken beginning first at the Bower and Tombe in Paules-Church-yard after my Lords returne from Westminster where the Citties Genius thus beginneth Londons Genius at the Bower and Tombe in Paules Church-yard GENIVS BY vertue of this powerfull wand Which in a minute can command Graues Vaults and deepes yeeld vp their dead How late or long time buried Thou Image of that worthy man That Londons Knight-hood first began In Office of the Mayraltie A high and gracefull dignitie Though yet thou sleep'st in shade of death By me take power of life and breath The first sound of Surden Trumpets Londons Genius giues thee leaue An ayrie substance to receiue Speech like to Spirits raysde from rest Triumphs
