TO THE NOBILITIE AND GENTRY of ENGLAND THis Piece being sent me out of France as a double rarity both in respect of the subject and the quality of the Author I had no sooner read then taken with its ingenuity I was moved to cloathe it in an English habit partly out of envy that other Nations should glory to have out-knowne us in any Art especially ingenious as is this of Devises which being the proper badges of Gentlemen Commanders and persons of Honour may justly challenge their countenance and favour whereunto t is sacred My Author affirmes himselfe to be the first hath written of this subject in his Mother-tongue and I might say the like here were it not that I find a small parcell of it in Camdens Remaines under the title of Impreses which are in effect the same with Devises Thence you may gather that the Kings of England with the Nobility and Gentry have for some hundreds of yeeres though Devises are yet of far greater Antiquity both esteemed and made use of them onely in former times they arrived not as now to that height of perfection for they sometimes did as the unskilfull still doe make use of Mottoes without figures and figures without Mottoes We read that Hen. the 3. as liking well of Remuneration commanded to be written by way of Devise in his Chamber at Woodstock Qui non dat quod amat non accipit ille quod optat Edw. the 3. bore for his Devise the rayes of the Sunne streaming from a cloud without any Motto Edmond of Langley Duke of York bore a Faulcon in a Fetter-lock implying that he was locked up from all hope and possibility of the Kingdome Hen. the 5. carryed a burning Cresset sometimes a Beacon and for Motto but not appropriate thereunto UNE SANS PLUS one and no more Edw the 4. bore the Sun after the Battell of Mortimers-Crosse where three Sunnes were seene immediately conjoyning in one Hen. the 7. in respect of the union of the two Houses of York and Lancaster by his marriage used the White Rose united with the Red sometimes placed in the Sunne But in the raigne of Hen. the 8. Devises grew more familiar and somewhat more perfect by adding Mottoes unto them in imitation of the Italians and French amongst whom there is hardly a private Gentleman but hath his particular Devise For Hen. the 8. at the interview betweene him and King Francis the first whereat Charles the fift was also present used for his Devise an English Archer in a greene Coat drawing his Arrow to the head with this Motto CUI ADHaeREO PRaeEST when as at that time those mighty Princes banding one against another wrought him for their owne particular To the honour of Queene Iane who dyed willingly to save her child King Edward a Phenix Was represented in his Funerall fire with this Motto NASCATUR UT ALTER Queene Mary bore winged Time drawing Truth out of a pit with VERITAS TEMPORIS FILIA Queene Elizabeth upon severall occasions used many Heroicall Devises sometimes a Sive without a Motto as Camden relates and at other times these words without figure VIDEO TACEO and SEMPER EADEM King Iames used a Thistle and a Rose united and a Crown over them with this Motto
