Jy^^^-^^HE TraHitions cf Time have adiverM v^^^^£^%. liown ro us divers Names, whereby rhis famous Ifland is recorded to have beea '^M_}_}IW called. ^^^arr^^^ By Orpheus, Ariftotle, and Claudian, ^^^^.^^ '11 was nam'd ]erna ; by Diodcrus Sicu- his, Iris ; by Euftachius, Berniaj by rhe Inhabitants, Kryn \ by the Latins, Hibernia ; and hy the EngHfh, Ireland : But from whence thefe Di- verfities are deriv'd, there are many Opinions. By Ifodore and Bede, it was called Scota, from whence C'liey f:;y) the N&me of S^odand, together VOMII, A wkU 2 VJ- the Kingdom of Ireland. with the Scots themfelves ca:ne into Britain *, but Hedor Boeriiis makes meniion, that this lOand was in- habited by the four Sons of Mikfius King of Spain, whole Names were, Hlbeiius, Herimon, Euer, and Erimon, and that from Hibeijui, tiie eldeft, the Iflaad tvas called Hibernia. He alfo adds, that they divided the faid Ifle into five Provinces, which were known by the Names of Mun- fier, Leinfter, Connaught, Ulfter, and Meath \ and that from thefe Sons ol Milefius, the prefent Irifli re- pute thsmfelves to come, who, by Geraldus Barry, CcalI'd Cambrenfis) Archdeacon of Mcnevia in Wales, and Tutor to King John, are faid to be a ftrong and bold People, but very courteous to Strangers. This Hand, which is fubjea to the Crown of Bri- tain, is the lar£;ert in Europe, except Great Britain; and is environed on all Sides by the Ocean j it's bound- ed on the Eaft with a violent and boifterous Sea, cal- led the Irtlh. Sea, or St. George's Channel, which fe- parates it from England and Wales • and o\\ the North-Eaft from Scotland or North-Britain ; on the Weft, with that vaft Ocean, called the Atlantick, -which parts it from the main Continent of America : and on the North, with the Northern Ocean, called the Deucaledonian Sea; and on the South and South- Weft, with that which is called the Virginian Ocean. Tho* Ireland is a diftind Ifland of itfclf, encom- paHed on every Side with the Sea,'yct^it's not very far Irqm fcm^ Farts of Great Britain, being but 60 Miles from I;Ioly-Head, in the Ifle ot Anclefea in Wales, to Dublin, and is nigherftill to North-Britain; for it is but 15 Miles diftan: from Cape Red-Boy, in the Coun- ty of Antrim, to Cantire in the South Part of Scot- land, It's diftant from France, lying North-Weft and South-E^ft 220 Miles, from Spain, >forth and South 440, and from New France, the neareft Part of America from which it lies exaScly Weft, about 1440 Miles. It is of an oblong Form, (nigh as lonu aeain as broad) fomewhat refembling an Egg, to w-hicK Shape many have liken'd it ; but if we cojifider all the Va- riety of Winding and Turnings, fcarce ajiy thing can be imagined, to have a more irregular Make. It is iii Length from Fair-head, the Northern Point of Antrimj t^ Mifl*ea-he«da the South Point of Cork^ about 285 ■wiiw*. Miles i fl Of the Kingdom cf Irelancl. a Miles \ ill Breacichj in the wideft Place from the Eaft Par: ot" Down, to iV-t Weft Parts of Mayo, ido Miks^. from the Eaft 'of Wexford in Leiufter, to the Weft ot Kerry in Munfter, 152 Miles j but in the Middle, from the Eaft of Dublin, to the Weft of Gallway, iu is bu: i46Miiesi and the whole Circuit (reckoning all the Windings and Turnings) about 1400 Miles. Here the Climate is fo tempetate, that neiiher the Kcat in Suinmer is fo fcorching, as to drive the Inha- bitants to fcek. the bhade, nor the Cold in Winter fo fiurp and chilliag, as to force them to the Firei buc at all Times they enjoy a gentle Kind of Warmth, by reafon of the pleafantnefs and temperate Difpofition of the Air, which, as Speed obferves, is moft delightful and wholefome, and fo Pure, that no_venomou5 Ani- lal can live in it, though brought from many other laces J ^nor does the Wood of its Forefts breed either Worms or Spiders3 tba: are venomous* Bxperience tontradifts this. The principal Riches and Commodities whch this Kingdom aftords, are Corn, Beef, Pork, Hides, Tal- low, Bu:ter, Cheefe, Salt, Honey, Furs and Wooll j (of 'vhich are made Cloth, Freezes, Rugs, DruggetSj Ratreens, Camblevs and StutE) as alfo Hemp and^Flax, which are manufaftur'd' into Linnon Cloth, Diapers^ C.mafks, nowCambricks, &c. and its Sea affords good Siore of Codfifli, Herrings, Pilchers andOyfters j and. the Rivers and Lakes do abound with Salmon, and Freili-watcr Filli oh all Sorts, as its Meadows and Fen- ny Grounds do with howl. The chiot Rivers, are the noble River Shannon, which takes its Rife cut of Mountains in the County of Leitiim, and p:;fles by Carrick, James-Town, La- neloorcugh, Athlone and Killalooe, belcvv which, it iTiects with a great Rock or Cataract, which it over- comes with a great Fall^ and af:er a Courfe cf 12a; Mile?, vvafti^-; the City of Limerick, (partly lituated oa an liland therein) and from thence continuing its- ft.'-.tely Stream for 50 Miles lower, (Navigable for Ships of great Burthen) then difgorgcs itfelf by ^> 'wide Mouth into the great Atlantick or Weftera. Ocean, making in its Paflage feveral great Lnkes, fruit- ful and pleafanc lilands, and a fertile Soil on both* Sides, and receives in its Way, the CamlFna Iny, Suck, A- a- Srufiwi. 4 Of the Kingdom of Irelniid.

This River contini^es its Current from the Lake to Bally-Shannon, where the Smoothnefs of its Stream is interrupted by a huge Rock : which it pafles, by a great Fall, cnlVd the Leap, and Uiddenly a^ter runs into the Sea, and allifls to inaketlie Harbour of Donnegall. 4.

Dermot having met with Encouragement from the Englifh, his next Addiefs wasto Ralph GiifHn, Prince of Wales, to whom he notified the State of his Af- fairs, as before-mencion'd, and delued that he would favour his Cmfe. From the faid Prince he had the Affiftance of Ro- bert Fitz-Stcphen, (who was Governor of the Caftlc of Cardigan, and Anccftor to the Bairys of Cork) to whom and his Heirs for ever, he coufirm'd the Town ot Wexford, as a Reward for his Sen-ice, in rc-efta- blifliing him in his Dominions. Thus the King of Leinfter, having fuccefsfully ma- naged his Solicitations amoni; the Englilhaud Welch, went into Ireland, and concealed himfelf at Fearna, ■'till Robert Ficz-Scephen landed with 30 Knights, 60 Efqutves, and 300 Foot Soldiers ; and then putting himfelf at the Head of ^cxj Horfc, whom^ he nad in Readinefs, he joined the Fnglilh, and belie ed \\'ex- ford, which immediately furrendcr'd \ and after that, inarching wi:h his Foices towards the Territories or Oilbry, Donaugh (the King thereof) fent him Hofta- gCs, as a Tcftimony of his SubmifTion.

I. Shewing the Antiquitj', Dignity, and Ufe of Armories. HE three principal Ends of Arms are, firft, to diftinguifti a Nobleman from a Commoner ; ^2dly, to dirference the Branches or Caders of one and the fame Family, that the hvft may be known froiT» the 2dj Sec. and ^dly, to iUuftrate Per- fons oi Merit, with Additions of Honour within and without the Shield ; which, at this Time, are the only external Diftinftions of Degrees and Qiialities amon^ft all Civil Societies and Con^mon wealths. Diodorus Siculus writes, that Ofyris, firnam'd the Juft, Son of Cham the curfed Son of Noali, callM of the Gentiles Janus, being banifli'd from the blefled Tents of Shem and Japhet, was conftrained to feek fome remote Place, where he might fettle himfelf, his Children and People j and for that Purpofe af- fembling them together, appointed Hercules his eideft Son for Captain i in which Expedition, as well Ofyris himfelf, as Hercules, Macedon, and Anubis, his Son?, and others, did paint certain Signs upon their Shields, Buckkrs, TargetSj §{c« which Sigas >YSre afterwards 4 Supplement. callM Arms ^ Ofyris bearing Azure, a Regal Scepter in Pale, Or, enfign'd on the Top with an Eye ^ Hcrcu'es, Gules, a Lion rampant, holdir.g a Ea:tk-Axe, Or ^ Macedon, Sable, a Wolf faliant.

Iji the ziX Chapter of Numb:rs, and the ift and id Verfes, it is vVi itten. That God, by his Proih*;t Mofes, comTvanded his People of Ifrael to divide and difpofe themfelves into Co|T^panies, by their Enfign? and Ban- ners, fpeakint; to thsm in thefe Words, ' Every Man • of the children of Ifrael, fhall -pitch by their own * Standard, with the Enfign of their Father's H^ufc \ • far off about the Tabernacle of the Congregation * fliall they pitch/ In vvh ch Words, though there arc two Sorts of Marks or Tokens mention'd, namely, ihe common Standard of the Tti he, and the particu- lar of the Family •, yet both of them were depicted with fome Animal, Vegetable, or other Thing, for Diftinftion^ From whence it is evident, that thcfe Infigns were not only the Invention of Men, but commanded by God himfclf i and are of fuch nccef- fary Ufe, that' without Armorial Tokens, no Martial Difcipline can be exercifed, or Army rang'd j no At- tempt of any Company atchiev'd, and by Confcquence no Conqueft made j nor fo much as ;"any Common- wealth defended, either from outward Enemies, or Civil Difcord x, tor all Nations, Countries, and Peo- ple, have their peculiar Signs, whereby they may be Siftindly known from others : And by the fame Signs, Noblemert are diftinguifhed ftom private Gentlemen, and the Nobles among themfelves. At the Siege of Troy, which was bgun near ^tooo Years sgo. Arms were come to fome Perfection, "they then v,earing for their Defence, Helmets, Breaft- plates, shields. Bucklers, and Targets, made of Lea- ther, and the Faces of all Great Military OERcers being obfcur'd by their Helmets, as were their Bodies by their Surcoats of Silk (which cover'd their Ar- mour) they, for the Diftin^ion of Tribe from Tribe, and Army from Army, depi^ed on their Shields, or embroider'd I Supplement, j embroidev'd on their Siucoats, their Device, as alfo upon their Banners and Pennons, the better to be known at a Diftance from each other : Thus Hcdor bore Sable, two Lions combatant. Or j and Alexan- der the Great, (who liv'd about 2070 Years ago) bear- ing a Lion rampant, caufed his Soldiers to bear the fame upon their Shields. There was alfo a Cuftom of old, to adorn their Helmets with a Creft, that refembled ibma favagi Beaft, or fierce Bird of Prey, thereby to diftinguifli themfelves in the Field of Battle, to ftrike a Terror upon their Enemies, and with a nobler Air to lead on, and encourage their Troops to fight, Roman Statues. The ancient "Romans (who, tho' of later Date thaa the foregoing Examples, were unfkill'd in thefe Signs of Armory) had for their Badges of Nobility, the Statues of their Anceftors, fucli as had borne foms Office in the State, as Cenfor, Prator, Conful, &c? And he who had thePri-, ilcge of ufing thefe Images or Statues of his Anceftors, was term'd Nobilis i he who had only his own, was call'd Novus, (or firft of a Family that obtains a Coat of Arms) and he who had neither his own Statue, nor thofe of his Fathers, went under the Denomination of Ignobilis, as the Common People, who had no Right to Armorial Bearings. Thefe Images or Statues, which were made ofWood,' Erafs, Marble, and fomccimcs Wax- work, were (the better to reprefent the Perfons intended) luinted ac- cordinu to the Life, and drcfs'd anfwerable to theif Quality, being adorn'd with the Robes of the Office they had borne, the Marks of th£ir Magiftracy, and the Spoils they had taken from the Enemy. Thus, the Collar or Chain of Torquatus, and the Tuft of Hair on that of Cincinnatus, were the Trc= phies, of which thofe two brave Heroes had defpoil'd two of the Roman Enemies. Thefe Statues commonly flood in their Courts, in Cabinets of Wood, where the feveral Trophies of the Honour,"? ol the Nooility were kept j and upon folemn Days, thefe Prefles or Cabinets were fet op^n, and the .$ta:nes beiiia adorn'd as above, '.vere expof^d to View, 6 Supplement, in their Courct, before the Porch and Gate of theii' Houfes J not only that the People might hehold their Nobility and Honours, but to excite their Pofterity to imitate the Virtues of their Anceftors ; fo that a cowardly and infignificant Pofterity was perpetually upbraided by thofe noble Figures and Enfiuns, which did (as It were) fl-iew how unworthy they were of the Honours and Privileges of their brave Anceftors. When any of the Family dy'd, the Statues were not only thus expofed to View, but at the Funerals were carry'd before the Corfe, as Enfigns of their Nobi- lity i and from this Practice of the Romans, came the Cuftom of fucceediug Ages, to carry at the Funerals of great Perfonages, the Armorial Bearings oi thofe noble Families from whence they were delcendedj as *veil on the Mother's Side, as the Fathers. Heraldry revived. The Goths and Vandals having fubduM the Roman ■Empire, and raifed their Glory to military Bravery, sxrere naturally led to an high Efteem of warlike At- chievements ; and as they funk many Arts and Scien- ces, fo they feem to have given new Life to Heraldry, deriving their Enfigns and Titles of Honour from what cniefiy concerned a Soldier j and as thefe Goths and their Northern Allies, in the Room of the Roman Images, firft brought in Armorial Bearings, and tranf- initred them to their Pofterity, as hereditary Marks of Honour i fo did they alfo the Feudal Law, by Means, of which. Arms grew up to greater Perfection. In Time of Battle, thefe northern and barbarous Nations charged their Shields and other Pieces of Ar- mour, with Figures of fierce Animals, as Lions, Ty- lers, Dragons, Boars, Wolves, and horrible Chime- ra's, thereby menacing and terrifying their Enemies j and fuch as took Pleafure in Wit and Craft, carry'd Serpents, Foxes, Owls, Dogs, and other Figures agree- able j all which became'' regulated by Charles the Great, cf France, (who conftituted the twelve Peers of that P,.ealm) and now are come to fuch Perfeftion, that they are great Ornaments to the Places where they are eretted,.and often occafion Strangers pafling by, to enquire whofe they are, aud of ^Yhat Family thsir Bearer is defccnaedt Supplement, rj Tournaments. For the better underftanding of the Antiquity and Progreli of Annories. as we nov/ have them, I ll^jali here mention two grand Occafions, which very much contributed thereto, viz. the Tournaments and Croi- fades. Tournaments, Juftings, Tiltings, &c. were honou- rable Exercifes formerly ufed by all Perfons of Note, that defircd to gain Reputation in Feats of Arms, from the King to the private Gentleman \ and derived their Name from Tourner, a French Word (.to turn round) becaufe, to be experc in thefe military Exercifes, much Ability both of Horfe and Man was requifite, they riding round a Ring, or turning often, as there was Occanon. Their Manner of afTembling was thus : The Time and Place being appointed. Challenges were fent abroad for fuch who defired to fignalize themfelves at the Lifts, and proper Rewards prepar'd fcr the Vit\o-' rious, which drew a great Concourfe from all Parts. It was the Cuftom of thofe who went to thefe Exerci- fes, to be in a complcat military Equipage, with Arms on their Shields and Surcoats, and Caparifons on their Horfes^ their Efquires riding before, carrying their Tilting Spears, with their Pennons of Arms at them i as alfo, the Helmets to be worn in the Exercifs^ adorn'd with Wreaths or Torfes of Silk, being oi the Tinftures of the Arms and their Liveries, and thereon the Creft, as in Plate i. When a Knight, &c. came near the Barriers where the Juftings were to be held, he blew an Horn or Trumpet, at which the Heralds there attending, came forth and received his Name, Armorial Bearings, and other Proofs of his Nobility, which they recorded in their Books ^ from whence came Heraldry, or the Art of Blazon, (a German Word, fignifying, to wind a Horn) now taken for a regular Defcription of Arms in their proper Terms ; and the German Families have their Helmets frequently adorn'd with feveral Horns, and Trumpets, to ihew how often they have jufted ir* Tournaments. Z 4 the 8 ^upplemenf.'^ The two Contenders being let in at feveral Barriers, mounted on the ableft Hortes, rhev, after performing the ufual Ceremonies, and paying their Refpeds to the Sovereign or Judges, as aUo to the Ladies, they took their feveral Stations \ and being thus in Readinefs, when the Trumpets founded, they both at the fame Time couched their Launces, and fpurring their Horfes, ran fiercely one agaiaft another, in fucn Man- ner, that their Spears Points lighting upon each other's Armour, gave a terrible Shock, afid gene- rally flew in Pieces. if neither Party receivM any Damage, they ufually ran three Heats, which was accounted very honour- able. But if a Man was beaten off his Horfe, fhaken in the Saddle, let fall his Lance, loft any Piece of his Armour, or hurt his Adverfary's Horfe j all thefe were Dilgraces. Thefe Tournaments firft began in Germany, in the tenth Century, and became afterwards a general Prac- tice, from whence arofe the Cuftom or modern He- raldry ; the Divifion or Partition of the Shield being taken from the Habits ufed in thefe Exercifes, whicii were often of two Colours, and divided either Pale- ways, Fefs-ways. Bend-ways, or counterchanged in Quartering; and the Figures which they bore in thefe Solemnities, were Pales, Cheverons, Bends, Saltires, Scarfs, Annulets, Swans, Lions, Eagles, Stars, &c. all which were placed within the Shield ; and they alfo adorning the outfide, as in its prefent Perfe^on, is what we now call an Atchievement, i. e. a compleat Armorial Bearing. But here we muft obferve, that Coat Armour was net allowM to any who had never been at thefe Tournaments, though they were Gen- tlemen. Croi fades. The fecond Grand Occafion of the Improvement of Heraldry to its prefent Perfedion, was the Crcifades, which were Expeditions to the Wars in the Holy Land, againft the Infidels, begun in the Year 1096, on vvhicn Account they bore feveral new Figures, here- tofore unknown in Arms, fuch as the Bezants, Mart- lets, Alerionsj Efcallop-Shells, &c. befides great Num- ber* of erodes varioufly fo;:m'd, which are to be fceti Supplement. ^ in Arms all Europe over ; for they who then iinH-ir- took thefe Expeditions, which were almoft all Chri- ftian Nations, receiv'd from the Hands of Kiiliops and Pricfts, little Crofles made of Cloth, or TafFata, which they few'd on their Garments ; from whence thefe Expeditions were call'd Croifades. In Procefs of Time thefe Tokens, which we call Arms, became Remunerations for Services, and were bel>ow'd by Emperors, Kings, and Princes, and their Generals and Chief Commanders in the Field, upon Martial Men, anfwerable to their worthy Afts, the Remembrance whereof could not be better prefervcd to Pofterity, than by thefe Kinds ot honourable Re- wards ; and tho' at firft they were taken up at any Gentleman's Pleafure, yet hath that Liberty for many Ages been deny'd \ no one being by the Laws of Gen- tifiry allow'd the bearing thereof, but thofe that are entitled thereto by Defcent, Grant, Purchafe, or from the Body or Badge of a Prifoner they had taken in open War j fo that the common People are deny'd the Ufe of them, by the Laws of all well-govern'd Na- tions. The Arms which are now chiefly ufed for the Di- ftinftion of Families, are fometimes corapofed of Cele- ftial Bodies, four-footed Beafts, Birds, Serpents, Fifhes, Trees, Shrubs, Flowers, Fruits, Leaves, Caftles, Towers, Mountains, and fimple Colours counter- chang'd ; of all which, I (hall have occafion to fpeak hereafter, in their particular Places. Examples of Arms. The Enfigns of the King of Antioch, was an Eagle holding a Dragon in its Claws \ that of Pom.pey, a Lion with a Sword j that of Attila. a crown'd Genet 5 that of Auguftus, a Globe ; that or Achilles, the Sun ; that of Julius Caefar, a Boar's Head j that of the Sax- ons, an Horfe \ of the Flemings, a Bull 5 of the P^- fians, a Bow and Quiver; of the Scythians, a Thun- derbolt ', of the Thracians, Mars j of Xorrain, three Alerions ; of the Goths, a Bear j and of the Romans, an Eagle.

The City of Antwerp in Brabant, becaufe a Tyrant Prince had been Lord of that Place, and punifh'd Offenders by cutting off their Hands, (whofe Por- traiture cut in Stone to the Life, ftands erected over one of the Ports towards the Scheld, with a Sword in cne Hand, and a Man's Hand fmitten off in the other) bears four Hands coun'd, in Saltire, an Eagle double Neck'd, difplay'd in Cnief, to fignity that it is an Im- perial City J and hence had the Name of Antwerp, or Handwerpen, which in Dutch fignifies to throw away the Hand, The Arms of the States of Holland, being the latefi-, are very remarkable, viz. Seven Arrows in a Lion's Paw, reprefenting the Seven United Provinces, and a Sword, denoting the Arms they took in their own Defence : They alfo put a Hat upon the Lion, to (hew their Liberty, and have crown'd him fince, as a Sign of their Sovereignty. The Duke of Dort in Holland, (from a Civil Broil that occafion'd much Slaughter, ftaining two Streets with Blood, a River running between them) bore in a Field Gules, a Pale Argent. Lewis the young, the fir(l King of France, took the Lillies, becaufe Lys founds fomewhat like his Name. The three Martlets in the Arms of the Houfe of Lorrain, is in Memory of the three which GodFrey c\i Bulloign fpitted upon one Arrow, as they fat upon th^ Wall of the Tower of Jerufalem, when he laid Siege to it. The Kings of Portugal bore in a Field Argent, five Efcutcheons Azure, each charged with as many Plate?, in Memory of five Vi.ftories which Alphonfus the Firft, in iiji, obtain'd over five Moorilh Kings ^ and the fame has continued to this Day, as Part of the Regal Enfigns of that King. Again : Arms are fometimes taken from Profeflion<;, and thofi Means by which the Bearers have ra fed thcmfelves to honourable Places i as the Dukes of Florence^ Supple ment» 1 1 Florence, for that they were defcended from the Fa- mily di M&dici, or Phyficians, bear in a Field Azure, iix Lozenges Argent. Cupbearers, Carvers, &c. took the Cup and Knife in their Arms, as Marks of their Office ; the noble Family of the Butlers, (of which is the Earl of Arran,^ &c.) raking their Name from their Office of Chief Butlers of Ireland, and for their Arms, Gules, three cover'd Cups, Or. Sometimes they were won in the Field ftom Infidels, as was the Coat of Milan from a Saracen •, it being an Infant, Or, iffuing from the Mouth of a Serpent. Arms are alfo Tokens of Grandeur and Sovereignty, for which Reafon, Princes, to exprefs their Authority and Povver^ caufe them to be ftamp'd on their Coin, aud fliew tnem on their Colours, Standards, Banners, Coaches, shields. Seals, Sec and caufe them to be affix'd on the moft vifible Parts of their Palaces and Fortreffes. Arms being appended to Charters and Grants, alfo fhew us who have been Founders of Towns, Churches. Caftles, Schools, &c. and likewife their being depifted on Flags, make known to us the Ships of different Nations at Sea ; and they are alfo moft neceflary for figning Articles of Peace between Princes, and Con- tracts and other Writings among private Perfons. Sometimes there are Arms borne, which may feem to have been devifed (in their firft Inftirution) accor- ding to the Sirname of the Bearei-, as three Caftles for Caftleton, three Gates for Yates, three Coneys for Coninglhy, and the like. Thus there is a Kind of Sympathy between the Arms and their Bearers, infomucn as he who ufes the Arms of another, without fufficient Authority, may be ar- refted lor fuch Offence, in an Aftion ot Trefpafs. The ordinary Caufes for changing Arms are as follow, viz. ift. When the Bearer becomes fubjeft to another, and thus William the Conqueror changM the Arms of Eng- land i 2dly, Adop:ion j jdly, Sonis confiderabk ne\r Enrerprize, &C. Ancitnt X 2 Supplement, Ancient Tombs and Monuments. In Funeral Obfequies, they make known to us tl.e Noble Perfonages to whom they belong, and :liiir Tombs and Monuments are no lefs compriz'd within the Cognizance ot the Science of Heraldry, than otliey folemn Fun^ions : For as it is the Part of Heralds to range Men in their due Stations, and appoint thent their proper Coats of Arms whilft living i fo it be- longs to them to regulate what Ceremonies are to be obferv'd at their Funerals, and what Memoiials erected ro them after th^ir Death. The moft ancient, and even the mofl barbarous Na- tions, paid this Honour of erecting Monuments to the Deceifgd, as believing it an Inducement to others to perform glorious Anions, and a Refped indifpenfable to be paid to thofe who had been an Example of Vir- tue, whilft furyiving in this World. Of all Nations, none exceeded the Romans in the Magnitlcence of their Monuments ; all the great; Roads about their City were adorned with fuch coftly Strudures \ for they did not then bury iu the Tem- ples, referving them only for the Service of their Gods i nor was it the Cuftom to bury in Churches for fome Centuries after the Gofpel had difpelled the Darkn'jfs of Idolatry. In Procefs of Time it was brought up to bury in Churches, and then all Families of Note appointed the Place ol Repofe for them and their Succedbrs, and erefted ftately Monuments, ador- ned with Figures, Coat-Armour, and Epitaphs. That there might be fome diftinttive Marks between the feveral Perfons fo interr'd, the Antients eftablifh'd certain Rules, which were then obferv'd on fuch Oc- cafioas. Kings and Princes^ however they dy'd, were leprefeated on their Tombs in their Armour, with their Efcutcheons, Crowns, Crefts, Supporters, and all other Marks of Rojalty- Knights and Gentlemen could not have their EtfiKi^s after that Manner, unlefs they loft their Lives iri Battle, or dy'd within theip own Lordfhips. Thofe who dy'd in Battle on the vic-t torious Party, were reprefc;nted with their Sword C^kcdi Uie Point Uinvards, on the doiiai" Side, and Supplement. i ^ their Shkld on the Left, theiv Heh-nets on their Heads. Thofe who dyM Prifoners, were reprefented on their Tombs without Spurs, Hehnet, or Swcrd- Such as d>_'d in Battle en the vanquilVd Side, were to be reprefented without their Coat over their Ar- mour, their Sword in the Scabbard, their Vizor lifted up, their Hands join'd on the Breaft, and their Feet refting on a dead Lion. The Son oF a General, or Governor of a ftrong Hold, if he dy'd when the Place was befieged, tho ever fo young, was reprefented in compleat'^Armour, his Head reriiiig on a Helmet inftead of a Pillow. If a Gentlem had ferv'd in Armies, during the moft of his Life, and in his old Aue became a Reli- gious ; he was reprefented on the lower Part in com- pleat Armour, and above in the Habit of the Order he had profefs'd. If a Gentleman or Knight, who had been kill'd in fingle Combat, had fuch a Monument, lie was to be in compleat Armour, with his Battle-Axe our of his Ar.ns, lying by him, and his left Arm crofs'd upon his Right. On the contrary, the Viilor was led in Triumpli to the Church, to give Thanks to God ; and when he dy'd, he was reprefented on his Tomo arm'd at all Points, his Battle-Axe in his Arms, with his rich: Arm acrofs over his left. But if any Perfon had been accufed of Treafon, Murder, a Rane, or being an Incendiary ; inflead of being honourable interred, he was treated in the vilcft Manner, his Arms broken, and his Body dragged on a Hurdle, and caft out to be devourM by the Fowls of the Air, or hung upon a Gallows. This may fuffice to fhew what was the Praftice when that Order cf Burial was obferv'd, many Examples whereof are to be feen at this Day. It is not to be queftioned, but in thofe Times they had likewife pompous Funeral Solemnies, as well at the Burial of Military Men, as other great Perfona- ges : but as they were always regulated by the Heralds, and have continu'd fo to be, down to the prefenc Time, to them I refer in thofe Aff^irst Having 1 4 Supplement.

This Fur diflTers from ViSv by having its Cups ranged with their Heads and Mouths one upon another, as Or upon Or, and Gules upon Gules j which two Tinftures may be , changed to any other of that Number, (except Blue and VVhite) but then in Blazon tliey muit always be named. 8. Potent, Counter-potent, or Varry Coupe, Argent and Azure. And as this Fur is faid to refemble'the Heads of Crutches, fo (in Blazon the Colours beinjj namea) they mav De changed to anv other, as Argent, Sable, &c. See Plate 19. N° 18. 9 Vair en Point, cr Pale, viz. the Figures (landing exaftly one upon another, flat upon Point, Or and Gules ; and (as the former) may be changed to other Tindures. 10. Varry. This Fur (otherwife termed Verry) al- ways confifts of four diftincl Colours, vvhofe Names muft ever be mentioned in Blazon, as thus, he beareth Varry, Azure, Gules, Or, S:.ble, &c. Note. That Fur that ccnfifis of one Colour alone is White, and in Doubling is taken for the Skin of a Litvit, (which is a little" Beaft bred in Lithuania, a Dutchy belonging to the King of Poland) and is call'd Miniver, but fometimes for Want thereof, they make rfe of the Bellies of Squirrels, which ftill retains the fame Name. Thus having defcribed the Shield, with its Points, and the Tinftures and Furs with which it is cloathed, as uecefTarv for the Ufe of Armories, I will next ex- plain the ieveral Lines, which, as they divide the Shield into different Parts, fo by their various Forms and Names, they give Denomination to the Pieces or Figures which they make, rendring them as many dif- ferent Coats. 11. Gules, a Chief invecked. Or. The Word In- vecked, is a diftinguiihing Term for all Lines which are Supplemefit, i^ ire made of Semicirclesj with their Teeth entering a ' Charge or Border, as the Example, and Plate 4. N^zj. and Plate 14. N*^ 4. 12. Per Fefs, (or party per Fefs) Pattee, (or Inclave) Argent and Azure. The Term per Fefs, &c. always fii^nifies a Field or Charge, to be divided into two equal Parts, either by a crooked or ftreight Line, from Side to Side, after the Manner of the Fefs ^ and when we fay, in Fefs, or Fefs- ways, it denotes two, three, or mnre Things, born in a Right Line, in the Place of the Fefs; as Plate 23. N° 16. Three Eaglets in Fefs, £cc. and again, Plate 21- N°24. A Lion party per Fefs, or coupe. 13. Per Pak, (or party per Pale) Or and Gules: Th;fe Terms fignif^ a Field to be divided into two equal Parrs, by a Line from Top to Bottnin ; and when ive fay in Pale, or Pale-ways, it denotes three of any Sor- of Charges, ranged one above another in the Middle of the Field, after the Pofitiun of the Pale, as Plate 22. N^ 16. Three Ducal Crowns in Pale ; and fo of other Figures, which are fomeiimes boriie lingle. 14. Per Fefs ragul'd (or ragulec) Argen: and Azure. This Term ragul'^d, &rc. figniries a Tree to be cut from the Stockj or a Limb from a Tree, with the BraiKhes lopp'd off, bur not clean away, as the Figure 18, iii Plate 23, moft plainly demonftrates. i^'. Gules, a Chiet ingrail'd. Or. Tho' this Line is form'd after the Manner of the invecked, yet it very much differs therefrom, becaufe the Points of that al- ways go into the Charge, and the Points of this into the Field, as appears by the Example, and Plate 4. N-* 24. and Plate 14. N° 2. 16. Per Fefs flecked, Argent and Sable. 17. Gules, a Chief battVd imbattl'd. Or. As the Term Imbattl'd fignifies the Battlement of Churche.7, Towers, and Houfes ; fo in this Example, there is one Imbattlement upon another ^ but in Armory, the con> mon Way of imbattiing is as N^ 25. and Plate 4. N'* 37. and 39. 18. Per Crofs, (or Quarterly) Argent and Sable. The Term per Crofs, &c. Hgnifies a Field to be divi- ded into four equal Parts, as the Example, and Plate 15. N'^i. b 4 j$< Gules, 24 Supplement, ip. Gules, a Chief imbaul'd arondi. Or. The Term Arcndi fign^fias an Imbattlement to be circular on the Top, as is tlie Example. 20. Per Fefs Wsvey (or Undy) Argent and Sable. As the Line Wavev, Sec. is faid'to fignify the V^'aves of the Sea, fo in Armory it is limited to three Rifings ©r Swellings. ^21. Per Bend (or party per Bend) indented. Or and Gules. 21. Per Fefs Nebula, Argent and Azure, The Line Nebule reprefents the Clouds. 2j. Gules, a Chief Dancette, Or. Tho' this Line, and that indented, may feem to be the fame, yet they are always thus diflFcrenc'd, the Line indented admits ©fmnny Teeth, and this has never but three, as the Example, and Place a;. N° 5. 14. Per Fefs Champaine, Argent and Azure. This Line reprefents the Baftions of Foriifications and Camps. 25. Per Bend Hnifler, imbattl'd, (or Crenelle) Or and Gules. See N*' 17- Note. When any Ordinary, whether Bend, Chev- Ton, &c. is drawn by the foregoing crooked Lines, the Blazcner isto fay, a Cliief, Pale, or Bond, indented, &c. But if the Lines are plain, as N° 13, then he is only to name the Ordinary, with its Colour, as. Azure, a Cnief Argent, and the like. Thus having treated of the crooked Lines, with their IJfcs and Signification ', I fliall in the next Place (hew the Divifion of the Shield by ftrcight or plain Lines,_ which, as 'tis faid, had their Rife" from tne Habits of Princes and Military Men, who were clcathed in the War, with Garments of divers Colours, parted Coupe, Pally, Bendy, and Gircny, as follows. 26. Tierce in Bend, Azure, Argent, and Sable. The Word Tierce ficnifies the Field to be divided into three equal Parts, by^Lines either crooked or ftreight. 27. Tierce iiiPairle, Or, Ermine, and Gule?. Note, That as this Divificn is made by half a Pale Line, and half a Saltire, fo it has the Name of Pairle ^ and when there are two fuch Lines in one Shield, forming a Crofs, as Plate 4. N° 7. then fuch Crofs is call'd a Pairle, or Crofs Pall. 28. Tierce in Pale, Azure, Argent, and Sable. Z9 Party Supplement. iy ■ ■29, Party per Fefs, firft Or, 2d party per Pale, Er- mine and Gules. 30. Tierce in Girons. Bend (inifter-ways. Azure, Argent, and Sable. Wnen thefe, or other Figures, turn to the other Corner, they murt: be term'd Bend dexter, (or dexter-ways) but they muft not be term'd in Bend dexter, or finifter, becaufe, when any Figures are fo blazon'd, they are underftood to podefs only the Place of the Bend, as Plate 21. N° 14. Three Bugle Herns in Bend, &c. ;?t. Party one, coupe two. Or and Gules. l^. Per Sakire (or party per Saltire) or Girony of four. Azure and Argent. yy Party per Fefs, firft party per Pale, Ermine, Or, and Gules. 34* Quarterly per Pale and Chevron, Azure and Argent. 55. Girony of fix. Gules and Or. The ufual Rule in' Blazoning a Coat Girony of C\y:^ is to begin with the middle Part, becaufe that fills up the greareft Pare of the Chief, and the others but the Cantons of it,, as the Example. 3(5. Tierce in Pile, from the Left to the Right, A- 2.ure, Or, and Sable. 37. Per Pale and Bafc, Gules, Ermine, and Vert. 38. Tierce in Girons arondi. Azure, Or, and Sa- 30- Tierce in Mantle, Gules, Ermine, and Vert. See Plate ip. N^ 8. 40, Tierce in Fefs, Azure, Or, and Sable. Thus having gone thro' the feveral Sorts of Lines, and their different Ways of dividing the Shield, I (hall in the next Place treat of the nine honourable Ordinaries, which are fo cali'd, from their ordinary and frequent Ufe in Coat-Armour, and are the Crofs, Chief, Pale, Bend, Fefs, Chevron, Saltire, Bar, and Inefcutcheon. of the forty Figures in Plate 3. Z, /^ U LES, a Crofs Argent. This Figure, (which, VJ when plain contains the 5th Part of the Field, juad charged the jd) was fo typify'd by Jabob's crof- i6 Supplemtnt, fing of Jofeph's Hand, and was antiently ufed by Ciiriftiaiis for EnGgns, Flags, and Armories ; Con- ftaatine the Great, carrying a Red Crofs in a White Field, which is now the Enfit^n and Flag of England ; as the Blue Field and White Crofs or Saltire, is the Flag of Scotland. When a Crofs or other Ordinary is born plain, as the Example, then in Blazon you need not mention the Plainnefs, bccaufe that is their natiural Form, as, a Crofs Gules, and the like. 2. Or, on three Degrees, or Steps, the Crofs of Calvary, Aznre. 3. Sable, a Crofs pattee, (or formy") fitched in the Foot, Argent. The Term fitched, or fitchy, (ignifies -a Thing 'to be pointed at Bottom, as the Example, whereby it may fi.K or faften in the Ground ^ but when you meet with the like Cvofs, or any other, h-wing all its Ends of one Form, you muft omit the Word fitched, and fay, a Crofs Pattee, Crofs Croflet, &c. See N'' 7. and 28. and Plate \6. N^ 9. 4- Or, a Patriarchal Crofs, Azure \ ufed by the Pope. ?. Gules, a Crofs laguled. Argent. See Plate ;. N'' 14. 6. Azure, a Crofs Avellane, Argent. This Crofs is called Avellane, from the Refemblance the Quarters ot it have to the Hufk of a Filbeard. 7. Gules, a Crofs potent. Argent. See Plate 2. N*^ 8. Note, this Crofs reprefents that of Jerufalem. 8. Or, a Crofs ckchee, voided and pomettee. Azure. The Term voided, fignifies a Crofs, or othei Charge, to have the Middle cut out, fo that the Field is feen thro' it, and nothing but the outward Edge or He n thereof left, which bears the Colour and Qu-^n^O* ^s the Example, where the Blue Edges fliew the Colour and Bignefs ot" the Crofs, as much as if the Mido.le (which'is the Field) had been Bluealfo. Wheri any Thine is thus voided, you nttd. not men- tion the Colour or the exempted Part, as faying, it is voided of the Field ; becaufe, as in the foregoing Ex- ample, the Middle Part is always underftood to be the Field feen throu!;;,h it. But iF one Side, or the Middle Part of a Crofs 'or other Ordinary, is of a QiiF=renc Tinfture from the Field, then fucft a Charge i* faid :o D3 Supplement. 27 l)e fuiThoumed (furcharced, or fupercharg'd) with a like Fit,ure in Form, bur lefs, as Plate 4. N^ 19. PUte 24. N° 13. and Plate z$. N" 16. Note, when we fay, over all, or in Surtouc, it fignifies any Figure which is born over anorlier, obfcuring Part thereof, together with Part of the Field, as Plate 2;. N° 4. and Plate z6. N"7. but if divers Charges lie one upon another in the Center of the Shield, then they muft be blazon'd as Plate 23. N" 6. Argent, an Eagle difplay'd, j>. Gules, a Crofs potent, quadrat in the Center, Argent. 10. Axure, a Crofs patonce, Argent. 11. Or, a Crofs of eight Points anchorie, A^ure.^ It is term'd Anthorie, bccaufe the four Extremities of i: refemble the Flocks or Velocks of an Anchor. 12. Sable, a Crofs flory. Argent. 13. Gules, a Crofs of four Pieces of Vair, their Points turn'd one to another. Argent. 14. Sable, a Crofs ficury, (orFleur deLifle) Argent; This Crofs is difFerenc'd from the Crofs flory, by i:s having a Line (or Purfel) between the Ends of the Crofs and the Flowers, which that has not. See N° 12. 15. Or, a Crofs moline, Arure. \6. Vert, a Crofs Lozenges, or a Crofs of five Lo- zenges, Argent. 17. Gules, a Crcfs eguice, or pointed, and voided. Argent. 18. Ov, a Crofs pierc'd, or perforated. Azure. When the Field is feen thro' any Crofs in the Center, as ths Example, the Crofs is then term'd pierc'd, &c. without naming the Colour of the piercing •, but if a Crofs or other Ordinary, has two or more Figures thereon, ^then thofe Figures (though they are of the Colour of the Field) muft be accounted Charges to the Ordinary, and not Piercings, as Plate 25. N° 10. 19. Gules, the "Badge of the Knights of St. James, which is the Crcfs or Sword of that Saint. 20. Vert, a Crofs of five Plates, or five Plates in Crofs. The Figures which are here term'd Plates, arc taken for Pieces of Silver uncoin'd, reprefenting Ouoits \ and when in any Coat of Arms, one or mow fof th«fe round Pieces ihall be found of the Colour Or, then ^8 Supplement. th-n in BlaTon they are always term'd Bezants, and are taken for Pieces of Gold, which were antienrly the Coin of^ Bizanciunrij now called Conftantinople, and in Weight were an hundred and four Pounds and two Ounces Troy j being equal in Value to 3 150 Pounds Sterling. When any cf thefe Figures are found of the Colour Bed, theyrnufl always (in Blazon) be called Tor- teauxesi if Blue, then Hurts; if Green, Pomes; if Black, Pellets (or Ogreffes) \ if Purple, Gclpes ; if Tenne (or Tawney) Orances ; and if Sanguine, Guzes. But if in any Coat they fnall be of two Colours, then. wharfoever Tinilure -Hey are of, they muft he called by no other Name than RoundleSj as Plate 24. N-* 12. three Roundles counte; changed. So again, when the Field, or any Figure, is charg'd with many of them, then that Field or Fiiiure is faid to be Bezanty, Hurty, PelJety, &c. ii. Gules, a Crofs pattee lambeaux. Argent. 11. Or, a Crofs fquare pierc'd, Azure. 23. Sable, a Crofs pattee. Argent, fimbriated Or. The Term hmbriated ilcHihes an Kdge, Hem, or Wclc cf a Garmeiit, of another Colour or Metal from the Garment, and is underftood to be of the fame "ihick- nefs with it ; but not to lie upon or underneath, but to be few'd to itj otherwife it v/ould break that great Kule, which tcrbids laying Metal upon Metal, or'Co- lour upon Colouj. Z4. Or, a Crofs pierc'd Lozenge-ways, Azure. 25. Gules, a Crofs croflet fitchy. Argent. Note, that in blazoning the Crofs N° 3. tht: Word Foot was added, becaufe that it ficched juft in the Foot, or Bot- tom, whereas this is fitched or taper quite from the Center ; and therefore, in blazoning this, or any Fi- frure that is fo form'd in the lower Part, the Word Foot muft be omitted. 25- Or, a Crofs portate, Azure. This Crofs is cal- led Portate, becaufe it does net ftand upright, as ge- nerally all other Crofles do, hut lies in Beiid, as it it v/ere carry'd on a Man's Shoulder. 27.

Vert, a Crofs of four Battons fretted, or in true Lovers Knot) Argent. The Term Fret, Fretty, ox Fretted, fignifies feveral Pieces laid over and under each other alternately, by which they feem to fret and chafe, as this Figure, and Plate 22. N*^ ;, 19, and 21, and when a Coat confifts of more than eight juch Pie- ces, it is always termM Fretty : but if the Number of Pieces are under 8, then in the Blazon the Number muft be mentioned. 31.

N** 40. but when there arc more than one of thefe plain Ordinaries in one Coat, as Plate 25. N° 13. the Word coup'd muft not be jiam'd. The Term Coup'd or Trunk'd, is ufed when the Head or Limb of an Animal, or the Top of a Tree is cut o4" from the Body by an even Line, as Plate 10. N" 18. a Boar's Head coup'd, &c. 5?.

X And Supplement. 5 x And thus having defcribed the feveral Forms of Crofles, I (lull now proceed to the different Sorts of Chiefs. i5. Gules, a Chief Ari^ent. As the Head is the chief Part of Man, fo the Chief in Armory (which always contains the upper third Part of the Efcutcheon in Depth") Ihould be a Reward for fuck only, whofe high Merits have procured them a chief Place, Efteem, or Love amongft Men j and this Ordinary may be charg'd, quarter'd, counter-charg'd, and parted, per Kend, dex- ter and finifter j yet it may not be divided in Halves horizontally, that is, by a Line thro' the Middle from End to End, Note, When three of any Sort of Charges are placed in Form of the Chief, they are always term- ed in Chief, as Plate 23.

Argent, viz. having a Piece of Hanging or Pavilion falling over the Top of it, fo as not to hide, but only to be a Covering to it. See Plate^ij. N" i, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7. And thus much for Chiefs \ next of the Pale, 21. Sable, a Pale, Or. The Pale (which is divided into a Pallet, and that into an Indorfe) always contains the jd middle Part of the Field, as the Example } and muft not contain more than the 3d Part, whether it be charged or not. 2dly, When a Field is divided into feveral equal Parts, alternately, of Metal and Colour, or Fur, then it is (aid to be paliy, or pale-ways, of fo m?.ny Pieces, as Plate 21.
