fortune that he had title to divers and several countries and that he would make wars to them all at once yet should it not be needful to him to shew forth any more marks quartered in one Standard but onely unto every several Country the Arms of that nation quartered with his own But this being the case of Kings and Princes wherein amongst others our most famous noble and worthy Kings and princes of this land have shewed themselves most prudent and wise to what purpose is it that others bring out commanders under their prince and which of themselves have neither title to country nor are able to maintain wars should in their princes service pester their Banners and shields with such an infinite number as many do And in this point I cannot enough commend the Baron of Stafford who herein sheweth his great skill and temperance for although his Ancestors have had title to quarter the marks of that valiant Thomas of Woodstock youngest son of King Edward the third Earl of Buckingham and Duke of Glocester of Bohune Earl of Hereford and Northamton and high Cunstable of England and also of that great house of Somerset which by their ancestors John Earl of Somerset younger son to John of Gaunt descended from the same king Edward the third I omit to speak of divers Barons and others of great estate whose heires both with revenue and honor enlarged greatly his family yet the said Baron contents himself with the paternal mark of his house It were to be wished that this matter of Quartering should be reformed as well for untruths therein oftentimes committed as for the titles that may be brought in question thereby to lands and Heritages And as being one of the chiefest things that bringeth honour of Armory into disgrace for not long ago heard I one speak in this manner Did I not quoth he know the grandfather of this man speaking of the owner of a Scuchion wherein were quartered many marks to purchase by plain patent although he never were man at Armes both his coat and crest within these forty years and how comes it now to pass that I see his nephew invested in all this Armory numbring many and divers several devices all in one shield by way of quartering this being a very mockery to see a man of no valour or estimation in warlike affairs and the paternal Ancestors of whom for ought that can be proved were not in any late age welders of Arms to entrude themselves into so many Badges of Armory is not the least matter to bring into contempt an order so honourable and necessary as the bearing of Arms is Differences in Arms to younger children and their Descendents Another matter that to my understanding is also to be reformed is the manner of differings which are by the younger Brothers and their posterities laid upon their marks being cressants mollets c. and that such little ones as that a man cannot discern them a very small distance from him which differences are in reason to be made fair plain and large that they may be also as easie to be discover'd as any other Devise that is in the Coat Shield or Banner otherwise they serve not to the purpose for which marks were first ordained And the inconvenience which ensueth of this error will the more easily appear if I but set you down the words of mine Author treating of an accident that happened in such a case which be these Et feist Mr. Robert Baileul alter sa Banniere tout devant en escriant Moriannes les Henuiers qui ia estoint esthauses Aperceurent la Banniere de Moriannes qui encore estoit tout Droicte si cuiderent que ce feust la leur ou ilz se deuoient radresser car mult petitey auoit de difference de lune a l'autre car les Armes Moriennes sount Barres contre Barres d' Argent d' Azure a deux Cheverons de Gueules Et le cheveron de Mr. Robert auoit vne petite crosete d'or si ne l'adviserent mye bien les Hennuiers ainsi vindrent bouter de fait dessubs la Banniere de Mr. Robert si furent moult fierement reboutes et tous discomfis For these Honours being led by Sir William Baileul thought in the stir and business to have come to his Banner hearing the surname of Moriens called upon and seeing as they supposed their captains ensigne and the difference of Sir Robert being the younger Brother but a little cross upon the upper cheuron they could not appercieve so that the most of them were either slain or taken and the elder Brother the Knight their leader was glad to save himself as well as he might The Lord of Cowcie son in law to King Edward the third suffered also reproch through the hard dealings of the Lord of Chine who raised his Banner against certain Englishmen of Sir Hugh Caveleys company being either the same that Cowcies was or the difference so small as might not be discerned whereby the said Lord Cowcy though he were abs●nt as far as Austrich had dishonour spoken of him as in the discourse of the Capital I have touched Thus then having shewed by example the harm and inconvenience that cannot but many times happen through the littleness and niceness of such differences I have thought it not amiss to lay before you the differings that antiquity used that by comparing them together you may discern the great wisdom of our ancestors and our own imperfections in this point for want of due consideration which was done at the first by changing of the device born into other colors only but when that would not suffice for the number of leaders many times all of one house then were they forced to vary their marks by adding of either Bars Bends cheurons cheefes quarters Borders labels losinges or such like and very seldome should you see in those times cressant mollet or such like small thing born for a difference and if any did yet was the same so large and fair that it might be seen as well as any other device which should be in the Shield or Banner And for the proof I will give you the example but of one house onely for your better information though I could do the like of many others namely that of the Bassets who indeed in my judgment varied their marks of honour very finely and that upon good respect A multitude more as my authour hath already hinted were it not for brevityes sake might be instanced from the practise of sundry branches of Noble-families whereof I shall only make mention of some few which are not unknown to most pretenders to Herauldry Such are those of Grey of Codnore and Grey of S●ndiacre in Derbyshire Grey of Barton in Ridale in com Ebor. Grey of Wilton in com Hereford Grey of Ruthyn in com Denbigh Grey of Groby in com Leic. and Grey Vicount L'isle Of Beauchamp Earl of Warwick Beauchamp of Holt Beauchamp of
de Vallence Earl of Penbrooke by whom he had issue John Hastings after Earl of Penbrooke Elizabeth married to Roger Lord Gray of Ruthin and some other children which needs not to be spoken of for that as I take it all the lines of them fail'd before the extinguishing of the line of the said John Earl of Penbrooke After such issue being had the said Izabel Vallence died and the said John Lord Hastings took to a second wife Izabel the Daughter of Hugh Spenser by whom he had issue Hugh Hastings and Thomas and then died and left as heir John his son by his first Wife who was Earl of Penbrooke as I have said erected by reason of his mothers inheritance which John Earl of Penbrooke married and had issue another Earl of Penbrooke who also married and had issue a third Earl of Penbrooke but in the end all the line of the said John Hastings first Earl of Penbrooke of that family failing there arose a question betwixt the Heirs of Roger Gray and Elizabeth his wife being sister of the whole blood and the Heirs of Hugh Hastings brother of the half blood to the said John Earl of Penbrooke for the inheritance of the Hastings But Gray recovering the same by the law that saith Possessio fratris de feodo simplici facit sororem esse haeredem called the said Hastings also having removed the difference of his mark for that he was then heir male of that house into the Court of chevalry and there having a judgement against him the said Hastings was compelled to use a Difference which was a Label of silver upon his mark a fair red sleeve of his Ladies upon his golden vesture since which the heirs of that younger family have used the said Labell even until this our age So that you may see by this that the law was then taken to be such that such an heir male as had not the inheritance of his Ancestors should not be suffered to bear his mark without distinction for it should seem by this that the issue of them that had married the heir general of any family being by reason thereof possessed of the lands had not only an interest in the Arms but might also forbid any man the bearing thereof There is also another matter out of square which is that every man that obtaineth large possessions whether the same be acquired by his judgment in law traffick in merchandize or any other mean yea although never any of his progenitors from whom he can derive himself had the charge to lead men of Arms will yet at this day intrude themselves into the Badges and marks of souldiers for although such as be descended from men of martial discipline have an interest in their ancestors marks amongst other their goods and therefore may shew forth the same to their predecessors glory and their own in respect of their descent yet such men as rise by their sciences judgments or skill in other arts affairs or trades although they be to be reverenced for their wisdom and praiseful actions and had in honour answerable to their vertues and dignities have yet little to do with the marks or Badges of soldiers For altho a reverend Judg that hath ministred law and justice a long time and that so long as that thereby to his great glory he hath obtained reputation wealth and revenue is to be had in high estimation and in respect thereof to have allow'd him some note or mark of Honour fit for his calling yot to my simple judgment the same should be disposed unto him after the old Roman order by signifying the manner of his rising rather then to put a corselet on his back a Burgonet on his head a Target on his Arm and a Sword by his side being things that would cumber greatly the good old man to use either for his own defence or but to shew by way of triumph for his glory sithence neither is it tolerable by reason of his age nor in his youth did he exercise himself in welding thereof And as these things are unseeming for him to wear no more can I see any reason why he should deck up the moniments of his house with such signs or tokens except he can derive himself from an ancestor that hath had the use of such things and then to set them sorth as a glory to his deceased parent will greatly augment the regard of his rising which rising yet of it self is a sufficient Honour the same being by any just vertuous or laudable means And these new risings I could wish to be of more reputation then they seem to be esteem'd of either by others or themselves that so rise as is apparent by many of their doings who intrude themselves into marks of Antiquity and setting forth of descents wherein they are yet fain many times either to counterfet or else to derive themselves from some poor parents which they either truly or by surmize alledge to have descended from some antient family and that have been by some accident or other in former time decayed wherein me thinks men do greatly mistake the matter for that in my opinion a man that is but of mean parentage and riseth by commendable means is equivalent to him that riseth from a decayed family namely when his said parent hath been overthrown for offence as many times they alleadge in plain terms And I could wish that every man that raiseth a House by his good industry should be honoured with some such Badge or Mark as should be answerable to the quality of his rising and not every man of what condition soever they be to entrude themselves into the signs and marks of souldiers and such as follow the field with martial exploits Some people also there are that be so precise as that they do disallow altogether the setting forth of any memory of well deserving men which have shewed themselves valiant either in the act of Religion their Princes service or defence of their Country neither allowing their posterity to set forth any memory of their praises nor suffering any monuments or garnishments to remain of their Burials as tho it were a matter offensive to God to have good men well spoken of or their valorous doings by their obsequies either reverenc'd or by any records remembred To such men I have not thought it amiss to shew them their error by directing them to such places of Scripture as do not only tolerate and allow of such actions but also praise and commend the doing thereof and in some sort charge and command the same to be done whereby both they may if they be not obstinate reform their misconceived opinions and others may be fortifyed in their praiseful endeavours towards the honouring of vertuous and worthy men to the animating of posterity to imitate their laudable actions sithence indeed the chiefest matter that stirreth up men to do well next their zeal to God and the love of vertue it self is
