of Covidius the Centurion which he used in the battel that he had against the Mysians was holden to be admirable that he bare upon his helmet a cup that one while did flash out flames of fire and other whiles would suck them in Many more examples could I give to prove as well the antiquity as the generall use of crests but holding this to be sufficient I will now proceed to give examples of things that are interposed between the mantle and the crest beginning with those of the inferiour reckoning and so to those of better worth and estimation HAving omitted in the former Sections some bearings of signall Note and Augmentations of honour bestowed for eminent service and some Presidents of bearing I have thought fit here to insert them though not in so good Method as I could wish and first I shall take notice of an eminent Addition the originall Patent being lately in my hands I shall in the next place shew you an example of a Gentleman bearing the Coat-armour of the Company he is free of impaled with his own wherein note that were he not of that quality yet he might bear the Coat of his Company in Seal Escocheon or otherwise I shall here not think it unnecessary to give you an account of the four Innes of Court or Collegia Juris consultorum being the head or chief of the residue which are called Innes of Chancery of whose Originall suppression opulency and other matters of moment I refer you to the survey of London Wevers funerall Monuments and others I shall onely give you an account of their Symbols or Arms and first of the two Temples of whom briefly thus It was an house of the Templarii or Knights Templars and after their suppression their other Lands were conferd on the Knights of Saint John of Jerusalem after called Knights of Rhodes and this house came to the hands of Thomas Plantagenet Earl of Lancaster on whose attainder it was by the Crown invested on Hugh Le Despencer Earl of Glocester after to Aymer de Valence Earl of Penbrook In Edward the thirds time the Students of the Law obtained a long Lease of it for the yearly Rent of ten pound a third part of this came through many hands to the late Earls of Essex by the Sister and coheir of the last Earl and possessour whereof it came to the possession of that worthy Gentleman William Marquesse of Hartford Lord Beauchampe the instant Proprietor The Arms of another third part of which House called the Middle Temple are thus blazond In the time of King Edward the third as is confidently averd Gentlemen Students took a grant of this house from the Lord Gray then Proprietor which Honourable Society bear for their Coat Sable a Griffon Sergeant or Rampant Or.

CHAP. VI. Peculiar Ornaments THus far have I touched things placed above the Escocheon now I will proceed to such as are placed else-where of which some are Peculiar some more Generall By such as are peculiar I meane those that are appropriate to persons having Soveraign Jurisdicton and to such as we called Nobiles Majores of which Rank a Banneret or as some call them a Baronet is the lowest These have their name of a Banner for unto them it was granted in remuneration of their approved valour in Military services to bear a square Banner after the custome of Barons and therefore are called Knights Bannerets as Master Camden hath noted saying Baneretti qui allis Baronetti cum valvasorum nomen jam desierat à Baronibus secundi erant quibus inditum nomen a vexillo concessum enim erat illis militaris virtutis ergo quadrato vexillo perinde ac Barones uti unde Equites vexillarii a nonnullis vocantur c. This order of Knight-hood was much esteemed for the honour received in the Field for Military service with great solemnity under the banner Royall displayed in the presence of the Soveraign and this hath been reputed a middle degree between Nobiles majores minores but of this dignity none hath been known alive in England since Sir Ralph Sadler c. But amongst the particular Ornaments belonging to the Coat-armours of persons having either Supreme or Inferior dignity there are some that do environ the Coat-armour round about and do chiefly belong to persons exercising Soveraign Jurisdiction and to such others as they out of their speciall favour shall communicate the same unto by
the Germans Banner-hires as being Commanders displaying Banners of their own in the Field These the Saxons called Laford whence our Word Lord and the Danes call them Thanes In ancient times the name of Barons was very large Citizens of chief Cities and Gentlemen of certain possessions enjoying that Title and about those times every Earle had a certain number of Barons under them as every Baron had Capitaneos under him But times have altered the limits of this Honour Barons being now reputed no less absolute Lords though lower than Earles and as a Gentleman is the first and lowest degree of Nobilitas Minor so now with us a Baron is reputed the First step of Nobilitas Major In which respect some have thought that in Atchievements none under a Baron may use Supporters but by ancient examples you shall find that Knights Bannerets also had that Ornament allowed them and therefore though a Banneret hath a middle place betwixt ordinary Knights and Barons yet I have omitted his Atchiemement the difference being so little betwixt it and the Barons Banneret or Baronet as some will have it by some is derived from Banner-rent because in their creation after certain Ceremonies the top of their Pennons is rent or cut off and so reduced into the form of a little Banner which they may display as Barons do But it is more probable that the Germane word Banner-hires was the originall both of Barons and Bannerets which matter skilleth not much sith this order as before we touched is now quite ceased in this Land The Atchievement of a Vicount LOYAL AV MORT THis

Whence a latter learned Lawyer gathereth most truly that though the King substitute other to minister justice under him yet himself is not discharged of that authority when himself please as often as our Kings have done in person to sit and take notice of causes and likewise the Royall Oath at his Coronation runneth Facies fieri in omnibus judiciis tuis aequam certam justitiam c. And that such was the Kings absolute Jurisdiction in this Kingdom before the Conquest also the same Author so copiously proveth that it is ignorance to deny it and folly to enlarge the proof of it And yet saith Aeneas Silvius It is the manner of Kings in writing to use the plurall number as Mandamus Volumus Facimus c. As appeareth Epist 105. where he saith Reges cum scribunt etsi dominatum habent ut quicquid placet Legis vigorem habeat ea tamen moderatione utuntur cum scribunt ut aliquid praecipientes non se solos videri velint fecisse sed cum aliorum consilio They do temper their Soveraign Jurisdiction with such moderation that it may appear they prescribe and command not without counsell and advice of others Touching the greatnesse of the Kings of this Island and precedence before any other Kings these are two main reasons First that the King of this Land Lucius was the first Christian King of the world as also Constantine the first Emperour publickly planting Christianity Secondly for that of all Kings Christian the King of Britain is the most and indeed onely absolute Monarch he being no way subordinate to any Potentate Spirituall or Temporall in causes either Ecclesiasticall or Civill as other Kings are through their own default Moreover the King of England is both Anointed as no other King is but onely the French of Sicilie and of Jerusalem and he is also crowned which honour the Kings of Spain Portugall Arragon Navarre and many other Princes have not God grant that as our Country hath been blessed with prerogatives above all other Kingdoms and with the blessing both of all earthly felicities and Heavenly graces beyond any other and with more puissant victorious learned religious Kings than all the people whatsoever as the world seeth at this day so we may go beyond all Nations in thankfulnesse to so
