CHAP. I. FRom our first ingress in this Book What hath been hitherto handled hitherto hath been handled at large the first part of the Division of this whole Work under the generall Head of Blazoning wherein have been confined and illustrated Examples of the diverse and variable kinds of bearing of all manner of Coat-Armours of whatsoever substance form or quality consisting together with the generall and particular rules in their proper places for the better instruction of the regardfull Reader What now to be handled It now succeedeth in order to explain that our generall Head being the second part of the first Division termed Marshalling Which term I am not ignorant of how far extent it is not only in ordering the parts of an Armie but also for disposing of all persons and things in all solemnities and celebrations as Coronations Interviews Marriages Funerals Triumphs and the like The large signification of the word Marshalling in which the office of an Herald is of principall use for direction of others and therefore his learning judgement and experience ought to be able to direct himself in so weighty affairs But that noble part of marshalling is so absolutely already performed by the industrious Pen of the judicious Sir William Segar Knight now Garter and principall King at Arms Honour Military and Civil in his Book of Honour military and civil The scope of the Author as that it were but arrogancy joyned with ignorance for me to intermeddle in an argument so exactly handled neither is here my purpose other then to confine my self to Armoury only Marshalling what and so far only to speak of Marshalling as it concerns Coat-Armours This marshalling therefore is an orderly disposing of sundry Coat-Armours pertaining to distinct Families and of their contingent ornaments with their parts and appurtenances in their proper places Of these things some have their place within the Escocheon some without and of those within the Escocheon some have their occasions obscure other some manifest as are those whose marshalling according to ancient and prescript forms do apparently either betoken marriage or some gift of the Soveraign Such as betoken marriage do represent either a match single or hereditary By a single match I mean the conjoyning the Coat-Armour of a man and a woman descended of distinct Families in one Escocheon Pale-ways as by examples following shall appear Impaling divers And this form of impaling is diverse according to the severall functions of persons whether Ecclesiastical or Temporall Such as have a function Ecclesiastical and are preferred to the high honour of Pastoral jurisdiction are reckoned to be knit in nuptial bands of love and tender care to Cathedrall Churches whereof they are superintendents insomuch as when a Bishop deceaseth ejus Ecclesia dicitur viduata Paternal coat on the left side And therefore their Paternal Coat is evermore marshalled on the left side of the Escocheon giving the preheminence of the right side to the Arms of their Sea ob reverentiam dignitatis Ecclesiae for the honour due to Ecclesiasticall dignity as also in respect that the Arms of such severall Sees Baron and Femme Ecclesiastical have in them a kind of perpetuity for that they belong to a Political body which never dieth An example of such impaling is this which followeth and this manner of bearing we may aptly call Baron and Femme The most Reverend Father in God Doctor William Lawde Lord Archbishop of Canterbury his Grace Primate of all England and Metropolitan Chancellor of the Vniversity of Oxford and one of the Lords of his Majesties Most Honourable Privie Councel To these with the Readers patience shall be added one other example which in regard it is invironed with the Garter of the Order merits observation Now because the Kings of Arms do sometimes in like manner as Bishops use impale the Arms peculiar to their severall Offices together with their own Paternall coats as Baron and Femme but alwayes in such case marshalling the Paternall on the left side I will insert one of their impalements as in example To the end it may be the better conceived what is meant by the right and left sides of an Escocheon or Coat-Armour born impaled after this manner you may imagine a man to be standing before you invested in a coat depicted with the Arms of two severall Families thus conjoyned in pale and then that part that doth cover his right side will answer
