Hence Venice hath this propriety above all other States that she is a Virgin a cōmodity rarely found within her self and more from her first Infancy Christian having never yet fell from her principles either in Government or Religion but still valiantly defending her Liberty against the insulting Mahomet Besides the wise and Judicious Potentates that strengthen this Common-wealth Nature hath fortified her with a strange and unusuall scituation Mediâ insuperabilis undâ Environd with her embracing Neptune to whom as the Ceremonie of throwing a ring into the Sea implies she marries her selfe with yearly nuptialls Hereupon our English Martiall admiring the scituation of the Magnificent Venetians City sayes to them Quid mirum est vestram consistere Legibus Vrbem Legibus exleges cum teneaatis aquas No wonder if by Lawes your City stands Since out-law waves are chain'd to your Commands If some casuall necessity did not constraine men to build Venice I could never conceive how so stately Pallaces how so compacted a City should stand in the midst of the Sea At the end just before the Chiesa San Marco are three Standards with Pedestalls of Brasse very exquisite worke At the right side from these is the Clock-house adorn'd with the signes of Heaven with the Sunne and Moones monethly entrance to them and two Statues of Brasse that strike Saint Marks Church is not so admirable for vastenesse as for the rarenesse of the designe and precious materialls it is compos'd of The whole facade or Frontispiece is beset with Pillars of Serpentine and Porphyre towards the top stand foure horse of Brasse most worthy Trophees taken as some say by a Stratageme out of Constantinople And first stood in an Arch-Triumphall at Rome Amongst the imagiry worke on this Church there stands a woman stroking a Dog The Venetian Annals mention the story of a Senators Daughter who her Father altogether depriving her of society with men had a prodigious Birth by that over familiar Play-fellow For the inward part of this Temple It is a little obscure within yet most richly wenescoted with Marbles and the whole top coverd with lively pieces in Mosaick worke An Art lost or unknowne in these parts and highly valued there Neere that Church gate that lookes into the Sea is a little Chappell and therein is an ill hewd image of the Lady made as their Tradition goes out of the same rocke which Moses strooke when the water miraculously gushed forth And to make good this story they shew three little holes out of which the Fountaine came forth Some probability there may be of this an old and now scarce legible Greeke Inscription on the same stone beginneth thus {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} And underneath these Latine words Aqua quae prius ex petra miraculosè fluxit oratione Prophetae Moysis producta est nunc autem haec Michaelis studio labitur quem servas Christe Conjugem Irenem The construction is dubious the lines verbatim as there I found them In this same Church is kept with great reverence the body of the Cities Protectour Saint Marke whose winged Lion with the Motto Pax tibi Marce Evangelista meus is the Banner and Armes of this Common-wealth In honour of this Saint here is likewise conservd a most inestimable treasure To this Cathedrall Church joynes the Dukes Pallace wholly of Marble with a Kingly Arcade of three and thirty Pillars under which t is a most comely sight to see the Venetians in their long Gownes daily consulting of State affaires Just against the great Gate at the top of the steps stand two Colosses the one of Mars the other of Neptune works of famous Sansovinus Opposite to these staires is a Facade of Statues both ancient and moderne Above is a most royall Corridor wherein are divers Tribunalls or Courts of Justice and higher are most gallant ascents into the Senate house and other sumptuous Halls Below in the Court in going out I observd the mouthes of two Wells in Brasse of very singular art On the other side of the place is the Zecca where they coine money and the Procuratorio on the top of this structure stand five and twentie Statues On the seventeenth of September whilst wee were at Venice there was a new made Procurator the second man in the Republick enterd into his office at which solemnity wee saw the Senatours in their robes of Scarlet Damaske three hundred most grave proper persons every one speaking himselfe no lesse then an Embassadour in his deportment The following morning the Secretarie of the State of the Family of the Tommasini for appearing a favourite to some Banditas was privately strangled and his body afterwards hung up in the place of execution which place brings mee againe into my description it being Between the two Pillars that stand towards the Canale della Giudeca These two Colomnes were brought out of Greece on the one stands the Statue of Sanct. Theodorus with the Crocodile on the other Saint Markes Lion of Brasse This is the summe of what is to be noted within and about the Piazza San Marco yet before I leave it t is worth the paines to get up Saint Marks steeple which stands by it selfe eightie feet distant from the Church From thence one may discerne how the City lies compacted of many little Islands separated by Channells joyned by Bridges the number whereof if well reckoned up comes to foure hundred and fifty and the greater part of stone The fairest and most remarkable is the Bridge of Rialto which though but of one Arch yet for the height length and breadth hath no where a parell Upon it stand twelve shops at each side coverd all alike with lead and behind magnificent Balustrades This Bridge passeth over the Canal Grande along which are the most stately houses in all Venice It is a most satisfactory sight to behold the Corso in this Channell every Feast towards the Evening to see the Venetian Ladies habited like Nymphs and the Gondola's like so many Daulphines running a race These Gondolas are Boats which because of the little use of walking a foot there are still carrying some passenger one way or another Every noble Venetian keeps one of these Seacoaches for his family and others there are to be hir'd by any man for money very genteel and commodious Hence one may easily conjecture how populate Venice is for the number of Gondolas is 40000. so that in case of necessity the Boatmen would make a considerable army for every Gondola hath a Rower and the better sort too And now I am on the water before I set foot to land I may visite some of the neigbouring Islands and first Murano a mile distant from Venice Here continually excepting in August and September are Fornaces to make Glasses which for the variety of the worke and the Chrystall substance exceed all others in the world and are transported to all parts out of which merchandise Venice drawes infinite summes
