his humanity is also by the writing of his holy Evangelists most plainly and sincerely remembred and set down All these things being therefore by the Scriptures of God the decider of all controversiies proved and declared Your Lordships may see that the bearing of Arms raising and advancing of Standards Banners and Ensigns using of Obsequies erecting of Monuments Enroling and regestring of Pedegrees and Descents have joyned to the antient customs and laws both of this Land and all other nations the authority of Gods word being very well accompanied with discretion reason and judgment for God having by his sacred institution ordained Kingdoms Provinces and Seignories and that over them Kings Princes and Magistrates shall command rule and govern his people to the end chiefly that his heavenly Kingdom may be replenished with the blessed souls of his servants for the instructing whereof he hath also ordained his holy Church and the Bishops pastors and ministers of the same which Bishops and other spiritual officers cannot so well enform his Christian people without the aid of the said Kings and temporal Lords neither can they govern their particular Countries either from the invasion of outward tyrants or inward Rebels but through the use of their sword of justice which sword cannot be exercised against unruly persons being of strength wanting men skilful in martial Discipline who cannot manage those affairs but by mean of the aforesaid Arms and Ensigns in manner as before I have more largely expressed And in like sort as Princes great Lords Judges Magistrates and Governours do use to wear sacred Robes of gold purple scarler and other ornaments and apparel not to take pride in or for any vain ostentation or show but only that they may be distinguished from the inferior people to the end that a reverent regard may be had of them in respect of the high office which under God here on earth they bear And as these things no man of any reason will gainsay so I see not but as-well may their just vertues and good government be remembred with Funerals Obsequies and Monuments after their decease whereby such as succeed in government may also be had in more high estimation and a fair example is thereby given them to imitate the regiment of their predecessors Likewise doth the Registring of descents carry with it reason joined to authority and custom for as by Gods law there is commanded a priviledge of enheritance to the first begotten of Israel and so for want of sons to the females and from them to others answerable to the proximity of their blood and kindred which with the laws of this land and of most nations do concur and agree it doth well stand with peaceful government for the avoiding of contentions which may rise for want of records to testify the truth of mens titles to their enheritances that Genealogies and Pedegrees should be enrolled and kept in remembrance I have my good Lords stood the longer upon this point for that of late travelling through some countries of this Land and having a desire to see the Moniments of antiquity which have remained in such places as I passed by for which cause as otherwise I many times resorted to Churches and other houses to satisfy my affection I found that many Moniments both of Burials and in glass were so broken and defaced that vneth may be had any knowledge what the fragments remaining did signify and enquiring of the inhabitants how it came to pass that those things were so blemished they made report that certain persons delighting as may seem in novelty for they can abide no mark of Antiquity had defaced the same These men that take upon them to be reformers whose desires are great through the singularity and pride they have in their own wits and understandings weening themselves to be very wise where indeed they are very simple and only look but into the abuses of things and do not see into the grounds and depth of the reasons and causes for which good ordinances were made go about to find faults where many times none are but if peradventure they hap to find an ordinance well made misused then streight never seek they to reform the abuse but by their wills down goeth ordinance and all such is their insolency rashness and want of judgment It were well done therefore my good Lords and I could wish that your Honours having sometimes access to her Majesty and oftentimes conference with my Lords of her privy Councel should enform her Highness and their Honours of the said abuses committed and to be thereby a mean that these simple fellows taking upon them to be reformers might be reformed themselves and both kept from destroying of good ordinances and be punished for their offences in that behalf committed In the mean time yet shall I desire that Honourable personages will look better to the Moniments of their ancestors by correcting the destroyers thereof and therein to imitate the laudable actions of William Fleetwood Serjeant at the Law and Recorder of the City of London who being commissioner amongst others for the visitation of causes Ecclesiastical by the Princes authority by vertue thereof imprisoned certain wilful persons that had defaced the Moniment of Queen Katherine Dowyger at Preterborough until such time as they had reformed the same which thing was through his good endeavour reedified and perfected again and so remaineth to this day for although some hapily see standing those of their own parents yet it were good they should sorsee that no others be pulled down for that there is not to be looked for but that suffering such injuries to rest unpunished the doers thereof will in time grow more insolent and have a cast to overthrow theirs also And now being in speech of Monuments I cannot but remember their ignorance who make small account of any ancestor except before the Conquest weening that all that lie cross-legged so were and that all antient evidence without date is the like whereas the one was not had in use until after the Palestine wars and the other such as be sealed be also since the Conquest for I could never see nor hear of any that had seen sealed deed but the same was made sithence the Conquest of this Land when the use as I take it of sealing with wax first began in England But these men will not stoop one jot under the Conquest telling many fables of their ancestors then preserving their Houses Honours and Armories forgetting quite that it is much more glorious and honourable to be descended from a most famous nation conquering then such people by plain feat of Arms subjuged for as the Poet saith quis enim sua praelia victus Commemorare velit referam tamen ordine nec tam Turpe fuit vinci quà m contendisse decorum est Magnaque dat nobis tantus solatia victor So that if they have any thing praise-worthy left to brag of it it that they well

A CATALOGUE OF THE BARONETS OF THIS KINGDOM OF England From the first Erection of that Dignity until the 4th of July 1681 inclusive AN Advertisement TO THE READER WHen the Copie from which this subsequent Catalogue of the English Nobility is printed was sent to the Press the name and Title of Francis Lord Howard of Effingham was omitted tho in the second Volume of the Baronage of England published in anno 1676 upon the best information I could then obtain I had there taken notice of that person as heir expectant to the said Honour after the death of Charles Earl of Nottingham who was then very aged and issuless doubting to fix him therein before he had regularly made his claim thereto might give offence to the rest of the Nobility but upon view of my Copie by some intelligent persons who nevertheless thought it proper to be inserted I submitted thereto whereat if any take offence I humbly crave pardon it being my clear opinion that such of a collateral line as have right by descent to any Title of Honour accruing to them by virtue of an entail thereof made long since they should openly exhibite their claim unto the King with due proof of their right thereto as hath heretofore in like cases been done and thereupon with his Majesties allowance thereof have the same by the direction of the Earl Marshal orderly registred Whereas in the Catalogue of the Vicounts I have inserted Leicester Devereux Vicount Hereford now in minoritie I'have hereby thought fitt to advertise the Reader that upon certain exceptions taken in Parliament in anno 1677 to his right for that Title by reason of the attainder of Robert Earl of Essex and Vicount Hereford in 43 Eliz. and restoration of that Honour being only limitted to Robert his Son and the two Sisters of the said Robert the decision â—hereof was then by order of the House of Lords reâ—â—ited till the said Leicester Devereux shall come of full Age. It is likewise to be noted whereas in this ensuing Catalogue Pag. 71. Charles Wilmot Earl of Rochester is inserted that since the printing thereof he dyed whereby that Title of Honour is totally extinct and therefore that the number of Earls mentioned in pag. 69. lin penult is to be no more then 68. And that James Compton Earl of Northampton mentioned p. 70. is since dead but succeeded by George his Son who is under Age. I have likewise thought fit farther to advertise the Reader that the Book-Seller being desirous to publish Catalogues of the Scottish and Irish Nobility such hath been the unexspected delay in obtaining perfect Copies from Scotland and Ireland that the publication of my papers which have been printed more then four months since hath by reason thereof been so long retarded that it hath necessitated some alterations and emendations now added Also that as to the following Catalogue of the Scottish Nobility Sir George Mackenzie the worthy Lord Advocat of Scotland in his letter to me bearing the 30th of December 1681 doth signify that he did review it and gave his assistance for the better compleating thereof and doth certify that it is very perfect and exact But the said Sir George Mackenzie in a learned Treatise of
