Learned Camden ( who addicted himfelf ¿¿Heraldry in his latter years) was fo out of conceit with their Terms (being for the moft part barbarous) that in his Patents (which were always Latine) when he came to the Defcription of the Arms themfelves, he made ¿¿French. And in his Britannia, where he now and then mentions a Coat, he follows"a Stile and Method of his own. From him, Chiffle- tius, and Vredus (a Learned Civilian) I principally ( though not wholly) have had my helps, and their particular THafons I have armext at the end of my Alphabetical Heads: where "they are wanting (for they meddle no further , than as the T )if tourfe they are uponf occafions the mention of an Armorial Bear ing) I have (quoad potui) fapplied my fe lf: And verily (as to the main) have done fo much, that the mof material and ufml Terms are not omitted, but handled. My defire being, Thathmeforth fuch as record and publijh to the World (in the The Preface. forefaid general Tongue) the H e r o ic A tti of men, ‘will bè pleafed aifo to dejcribe ( in the fame) the Symbolical Reward^ deferve dly given to their Virtues*, fitch Deicriptions being to the impreued Shield, as the faculty of Speech allowed to à TiBure, and-, taken both together, are at this day thè ufuat mans of transferring the memory of Merit to Poflerity , ac cording to the Definition of Blafon it felf\ Qnx quidem eft recitatio, vel comrnemoratio alicujus Vircutis, & queiii- piam fub quibufdam fignis abundè & verè laudare, aüt De- eôrum dicere, as Feme. Heretofore this continuing of Fame and Renown was effected by Statues erected in Publicly places : But as Budæus fays, His reliitis, pofteriora tempora,Infignid Gentilitia habuerünt quæ Arma vulgò vocantur 3 qüæ ipfk quoque Virtutis præmia fuerunt, & rerum prætlarè geft^- rum décora. Thefe Statues gave place tè Arms : The firfl being difeontinued, the latter came up in their room *, and there~ fore of greater moment than this Unworthy Age makes account o f, and by no means to be flighted or little fet by, being the Re* - wards o f Virtue , and à vìfiblè commemoration of Things nobIf done, & c. Gerard Leigh calls his Treatife of Heraldry, The Acitë- deuce of Armòry 3 and the Book, which initiates our Engliftt Touth into Latine, We commonly call the Accedence : But the true Title is, A Ihort Introduction of Grammar ( which t conceive had been better To Grammar.)

My Anfwer is, Thefe are not obfeure or rare Things, peculiar as it were to Heraldry; but fo ufual with Latine Authors, as need no place here , where my defign is only for fuch Terms as are mainly proper to that Art : Tet is not the ObjeUor left with out thefe two Blafbns , the firfi he finds in the fifth of Camdens, the fécond in that of Emmanuel Colledge. Secondly 5 it may be objected, Why I have not Cuts for every Title (Oculis commifla fidelibus— Segnius irritant animes aliter, as Horace phrafes it in his Ars Poetica) I anfwer, It would have much augmented the Charge : And again my defign fuppofes, That he that would learn a Latine Blafon, wants not jo much the Art as the Language (hath the mofi ufual Forms and Ideas ready in his head,) Befides , what he finds not in the very Title, he hath elfewhere exhibited ; or elfe fo plainly defertbed, as needs it not.

See 3JmbatteleD* A Crefcent, is that iort of a Half- Moon that hath his horns turned up ward : the French therefore term it Croifant montant, Chijftetius in 2fprc~ lig, barely calls it Lunula; which is not fignificanr enough to diftinguiih it either from Increment or Decrement ( or from many Full Moons, if perhaps born in , one Coat.) In Carmoia, Chifflet im cads it Lffla Cormta; But this neither can difference it from thole two above-f^id, or the Croijfam renverfiy the Cre~ icent turned upiid$-dQwn; or as we vulgarly call it Teffi~ Tnrvy* Latinam (Blajoníam. i d Turvy. It is neceflary therefore, that in the Crefcent we exprefs that pofture of its horns, and fo term it Lunula cornibiu furfum ver fis. According to which I will blafon the Arms of my very good Lord, Thomas Lord Coventry of lesbojough in 3?l0to?cefterf[nre, whofe Servant I was, and whilft fo, was bleiled with retired content, which makes me call to mind that of Mr. Hobbs, acknowledged in the like Cafe : Pars erat illa mea multo dulcí filma vita.

Sometimes Crcfccnts are born back to back (as the foregoing are born horns to horns, Or refpeft- ing one the other) and then you mull exprefs it by Tergis obverfisy which is the proper Latine phrafe for 3 nt)02fch, as yon may fee by Fredus in Bar and df er rctfe* Now for this CreRent turned upfide down, you mufl: term it Lunula cormbus deorfum verfis ; fuch a CrefCCtU was born by Aben Mahomet, the great MoOrilh Prince, at the famous Battle of jpabes de SToïOfa, Anno 1211.

The Author of the Ele- merits of Armory will have this Field 1151* the CftfCCnt and fijtarg I confefs Sljure is the proper colour of the Firmament, and therefore by French Heralds termed Bleu Celefte, (Fav. Tom. i. cap. 4..) But you muft know that 0 2 &n is of great eiteem amongil the Mahometans; and therefore in their Arms, though they obferved the native hue of the Moon (making it &rg.) as alfo of the Stars (making them 2D?) yet they made Satire give place to «®?een. So (for Mahomets fake their fenfual Prophet) pre ferring the Verdure of the Earth before the excellent co lour of the Sky and Firmament, which, as the Pfalmifl; fays, (Pfid.19.)

But the Author of Villare Cantianum (pag. 172.) fpeaking of Twfdenh Creft, lays they began in the time of Faction between J©o?fs and JLancafiter, wherein he is mifta- ken, they being much more ancient, as appeareth by old Seals.

A Latinam ’Blafoniam* AjDelfs This (if of Tawny or Mur ray colour) is a rebatement, and is for him that revokes his Challenge. ¡Spelts are the Arms of Delves of Slpts&alt in (and of which Family were Sheriffs of that County fab Rich. 2. as Fuller) and alfo of Delves of Cbtfbire, as per Vale-Royal. But becaufe the Vale- Royal reprefents them to be long Squares, as alfo a Manufcript Book of Arms that I have feen, I.dare not pronounce them to be the fame with that I how treat of, before I have cleared the Etymology of the word. I take it to come from the ancient word Delve, which figni- fies to dig: fo then a UDdf (orSDelbe) is no other than a SCurfs s which for the molt part (refembling the fcuppet of the Spade) is a long Square, but yet may be digged and cut up of an equilateral or exadt fquare form (fuch as Au thors reprefent this fort of rebatement to be.) Such as revoke their own Challenge, feem endued with Spirits more fitting for the Spade and Mattock, than the military Girdle and Sword. Hence came it, that thefe Turfs or Clods of Earth were affigned them as Badges of Reproach \ but here in thefe Arms of Delves, we mult take them for marks of Honour, and fymbolizing Agriculture, afignifi- cation not to be flighted, feeing Solomon tells us (Ecclef. 5. 9 ) The profit of the earth is for all, nay the King himfelj is ferved by the field. And the wife Plato elteemed more of the Lydians, becaufe addiefted much to Husbandry, than of the Lacedemoniansf whofe inclination was warlike. Tally alfo in his Oration for King Deiotants itiles him Diligentiffi- mas Agricola, as a fpecial commendation. ' Thefe 0 ?elbtS in the Arms aforefaid may not unfitly be termed (jlebas fen CejfiteSj longule (fettoblonge) quadrates.

Again, fome call them Bricks and Billets indifferently*, yet the Bricks are another thing , and differ from Billets, in that they fhew their thicknefs in perfpedtive, which Billets do not. And indeed Fredas Latinizes that Golden Square (or Canton) upon the top of the U&enO in the Arms . of Daulphiné d'Auvergne, Quadrat us Lattrculus, a fquare Brick, by the Adjcdtive diitinguiihing it from thofe Bricks born of proper form, that is, oblong: and fuch doth Cbif fietms take the Partitions in the Arms of Carinthia to be, terming them Dexter and Swifter Laterculus. And pray note, îlSilïstfi properly in proportion are halt a gDdf* But now come we to the Latin exprefiion of that which is a rebatement,and is by Authors reprefented an exadt Square. Truly, with Fredas, we may term it Quadrants laterculus, (for fuch Revokers are more fit for Brick-makers than Challenge-makers) or elfe Qapdr.it us C eft es, forthereafon afore by me hinted. Or you may call it Quadra, which is the proper word for a Trencher -, for indeed fuch Eaters of their own words are more apt to eat than fight, and jufUy deferve to have the French Sarcafm applied to them, viz.. Bons Soldats an flat & Trenched, Brave Fellows in deed , but at the Platter and Trencher. Yet this SDeïf» when depidted in proper Metal or Colour, becomes an Enfign or mark of Dignity, (as Leigh) and by Trophée d Armes is termed Tablette, and deienbed to b G f purée en quarré (four fquare.) Fredas in Dadphine d'Auvergne calls it Qmrrean. And they are the Arms of the Carrons (a considerable French Family) thus blafoned by Charles Segomg in his Trefor Héraldique, d'Ajureà trois Quarrel (ou Tablet tes) d’Arg. 2. i . In Latine you may ilile them Tefferas, or Quadrat as tahtttfis. Latinam fBlafoniam. i ? S'CltiPj Dimidiatw, as Leo Dimidiates, ufed by Camden it} Howard.

My Lord De fE/pinoy, in his Recherches of the Nobility of JFlahherfi, is fo wary to put afide obfeurity in this cafe, that very often he hints the Angle-headed Eagle by the expreilion of &igle fengle (as in the Territory of JScnnats) the name of Fan Hole, Fan Melle, &c. though it might be nnderftood by him without it, he calling the Others Doubles. So Eavine (Torn. 2. fag. 485.) hath Aigle Simple for the King of the Romans , and Aigle d fettle tefle for the ancient Roman Emperour (Tom. 2. pag. 420.J This I thought very worthy of remark.

We will therefore further confult Le Trophée d’Ar- ; mes what Claire is, fays he, Quant À la figure c f pour trait ure j fe font quantité d e b u ts , Cloches, on Cbappeaut ranges en j droite ligne, dont les ms femblent reivverfez., CS les autres de bout.

And here take notice, That a ï&arre in French is a Bend ßnifier, or Conterftanding Bend * and that which we eau a JIBarte, they call Fafee en, devife, a Feile diminiíht. Having finiíhed my Alphabetical Titles and Heads* I come now to the Blafon of C ruffes, which are very various in their forms : Of which forms fome are eflèntial to them, others accidental (as not proper 19 them only, but alfo to the other Ordinaries) and fuch are MSo?bUreii , Cfrecqup» Compone, alias tëobone, Contercömpone or Contergobone, äFrettp, 3;mbatteleb, Slnbenteb, ïngraileb, 3nbeckeö, buly, ïïatre, íKotbeb, tMabp or tßjnöp. To Latinize which Terms, I refer you to their lèverai Titles. iFogms effentia! and peeper follow. A CÏOfS USatOll (as Leigh) Bara terms it Potence'e. chif- fietmt in ^tertfaiem calls it Cruxpedata, I fuppofe from Pe dum, which lignifies flrúftly a ^hepfierbs Crook or Staffi according to that Diltich of Chrifiiamis Mathias in his Thea- trm Biftoriatm, relating to King Davids Tranflation from the Sheepfold to the Throne.

But may be ufed for any kind of walking KafF, which formerly were wont to be made with a ihort traverfe piece at top, to reft the hand upon , not much unlike the Crutches of lame people : and from this laft is the term of Bara taken, truce fignifying either a Crutch or a s ©ibbet in French. Fredas in the Arms I of Champagne» calls the Cotifes there ! (which are of this form) Patibulatas, as if refembling a ■ Cibbet* We here commonly make our ©ibbetg but with one arm, but beyond Sea with two like a T. The firft that everlfaw was at haloes in lSjetagnc, and till then 1 was hardly reconciled to Mr. Fuller, who in his Holy State, fpeaking of Queen jElizabeth, and of the Anagram that Ed- murid Campion the Jefuit made of her f Elizabeth JejabeO notes that T was there omitted, the lively Emblem and Preiage (lays he) of the Cibbet whereon this witty Ana- grammatift was after hanged. But to return , as Fredas Latinizes, Urn £'office votencee, Lacimola patibulata, why may not I call une Croix potencee, Crux patibulata ? And if any one blame me to put iovile an Epithet to a Badge or | Symbol fo Sacred (as this of ^ierufalcm) let me tell him, he j hath more modefty than St. Pauly who lays, Gal. 6. 14. Ego ! vero abjit fit glorier, niji in cruce Domini nofiri jefu ¿'hrijti. And: what was this fame Crux but the Patibulum q it^ R o mans ? according to which you have it plainly Luke 23.39.

Butlaitly, to term this Crofs mqer- F 2 ly IntroduBio ad ]y Crux pedata or patibulata, reprefents it no otherwife to the underftanding, than as if it were that Ions CrofSj whofe Traverfe is placed at the very top of the Trabs palaris or ere- chi, and rdembles a T-like Gibbet therefore ’twere more exprcllive to fay, Crux ad fingulos ¡pints terminos pedata feit patibid at a , but why not Crux Hierofolymitana , Croix de Jerusalem ? 9 Crofs of four Daltons in true lobes Knot (as Leigh hath it) termed by Bara, Ouatre Batons pajfez.

Then fometimes I think l e means U Croix de Bourgogne-, which compellation fome times I meet withal in French Authors, (particularly in Promptuaire tMrmorial) and take to be the CrOffi 1ftu ' guié, which is the very form of the Saltire, that is born by the King of Spain’s Low-Country Subjects, as their Maritimum or Clajftcam Symbolism, and is derived from the Dukes of Bttrgogne (or Burgunbp) vvhofe Succeflbrs (in thefe Countries) the Kings of ^»patriare.

Leigh writes it parcelé, putting gfor c, and a fore, as indeed ibmetimes the French do, (and in a French Author 1 have met with^s- farceler for Recerceler.) Liber Sanüi Al- bant calls it in French Croix recercelée, iand Englifhes it a Crofs reberfeb* This very Crcfs being boiheO, is the Bearing of the Noble Family of the Knowles Earls of USanfcurp, and our Engliih Blafoners very corru ptly ftile it a crofs recerceíé boibeb: of which CroCe anon. Bara and all French Authors call it Croix Anchrke, for that it fomewhatrefembles the Vloecks of an Anchor; and ac cording to this acception, Chiffletius in Zntpjjania calls it Crux Anchor ata, the Book of St. Albans, Crucera reverfam, that is, a Crofs tuinebbadtinarb at the ends: which term of fóeberíeb hath taken fuch place, that in an old Alphabet (I have) I find the CroCs cetcelé often called Uebtrfj?

And here l cannot but take notice of the confufion of our Engliih Writers, that make no difference between the CrotS ntoline and the cerceié, rendring them alike, (which 'BofwelaKo complained of) whereas the diftinftion is manifeft, the being fquare pierced in centro, and not fo much rounding, circling, and curling at the end •, the Cevcdé (or Stnc!>?ei>Crofs) not pierced at all (as you may learn from Bam) and reafon hints it} for the firft is no thing elle than the Fer de Moline born crof.ways (as Leigh.)

Bur I muft return to my Crofe flcurtp î Liber Saniii Albani (ac cording to the Spanifh Term) calls it Cruxflorida. Camden in his Defcription of the double Treffitre (in the Augmen tation of Howard) calls it Limbum utnnq\ hliatum , that if, 5Fleurp counterfleurp, or JFïeurdeUfée coiitrcrleurdelifés s fo then Crux liliata is very proper. But then this Term doth not diftinguilh it from the fore-cited Crojs, called by the Ancients corruptly ^ate. by Leigh (in his Defcription ofCroifes) ^’atoncp and JFlottrtp, fol. 37. where he fpcaks of Oeratting » and which by Guillim in the Arms of Sr. George is truly called JFleurrPj by others JfIo?p : for indeed, as to the Term^atpncp, I know not whence to fetch it: Leigh had fome ftrange Originart for it, fuch as (no doubt) was that of Ijlumettp. This faid Crcffi is that kind of Crofs fleurp, flourtp, or flo^pthaç terminates (at each end) JntrodiiBtt ad into the three leaves of a JFfotoer fie llttte, no bourse or Mediating line being interpofed. That you may the better uflderftand what 1 mean by gourde, I will give yon this defcription thereof out of the Elements of Armory, pag. 86. Painters do call thole lines that limit, bound orcircutnfcribe pOUrfttJB or perfils, hndfignifies as much as to lay per film : which word Filum Lucretius doth Ule for the outermoft bounds or duftur es of lines in Figures. ’\Dcbent nimirttm non omnibus omnia prorfum Ejfeparifilo fimHiffr ajfetta figurd. But if you pleale to look into Leigh (amonglt his mixt Coats) you will find a Chief and born together, and where the pale joyns to the Chief, there’s no gourde be tween themfwhich the Author himfelfalfo takes notice of) According to thefe two deferiptions aforefaid, I will exprefs both thefe Croffes, calling the firit Crucem ad fingttlos cups terminos (filo, lined, vel infiitd mediants) tria UUi folia appo~ nrniur. Or thus, Crucem aqualis longitudinis, adcujus qua- tuor metas totidem lilia adjunguntur. The lecond, Crucem in liliorum folia ( nulla lined feu filo interpofito, vel interjelio) definentem.

Qufa extremi- fates ejus funt patuU, hints to me a bet ter Latine Blafon for it, admonilhing me to deferibe it Crti- cent verfus extremitates fuas patulam: for to call it Paten tem, is a Term better agreeing with that Crofg mentioned by Trovhee d?Arms ■, viz..

A C r o fs fojmp fogmta fitebp ( Leigh) but Cjidllim much more properly, a C rofs fo?mp fitebeh at foot, i. e. fuch a Crofs as the former, having at the bottom of its palar part a Cuff is or Spictdum, and fo the faid Cufp doth not commence in centra Crucis, as in the ordinary CrofftS fjtchpj but ad imam, hupts crncis plantam.

Introduclio ad AlongCrûffiî Bara makes it like a dErofsof Paillon, that is, theSEraberf^ beam a pretty deal below the top of the palar part, and this Le Trophée d’’Arma calls Croix hante ï in Latine therefore it may be termed Crux longa or Crux alta ; yet in my Blafons 1 ihould call it Pajfil ms vel fupplicii crux ; for of this form was the CrofS made whereon Malefadors fuffèred, the place above the Tranlbm being for the head to reft againft, the Tranfom it felf for the two arms to be nailed thereto. But Gerard Leigh hath another form of long Crofs, whofeTraverfe i$ at the very top of the Très palaris, which, in my mind, he had better termed a long Crofs T ; it refembles a Gibbet or Gallows ; and therefore (according to Fredas in Champagne) I ihould biafon tibulum or Gabalum : But if that be too ominous, then Cru- cetn longam, cujus tranfverfum lignum ad ipftjftmam eius fummi- tatemeft affixum \ but belt of all Crucem longam T, or Crucem Sancli Anthonii longam atqui non patulam. Leigh makes this longCroffiof hislffaggeb and SCrunheb i and verily in St, • M ary Cimes church at Ipftotcb (Eaft window) areâjure fuch a long Croîs KaguleD and €runfce&,a gullet in Chief, and two CrefcentS in iFefle, all âD? î But whofe Arms thefe are, 1 know not, Crofs Of^alta ( Trophée d’ Armes ) or a Crois of eight points. This CrcfiS Morgan in his Sphere of Gentry (having too too many things in that Treatife ta ken up fide nimis nimium levi) calls the 8ncb?eb CrolS, and under that name exhibits the form. I confefs Favine in one place calls it fo, but that was meer- ly inadvertency-, forelfewhere he terms it of eight points* And Les Eftats du Monde, ipeakingof the Order of S^aJthC, lays, Leurs veftemens furent une Robe oh eftoit attachée m e croix blanche en façon ¡©CÎOgOne pour tuarejue ae leur pureté O1 de hutél beatitudes, aiifquelles ils afti- rotent ; Latinarit félaforitani. y y ment •, that is, Their habit was a Robe to which was faft- 'ned a to&ite Croffi of Octogonal (o? eight^poíntet») fc$m, as a note of their Purity and the eight Beatitudes, to which they afpired.. Again, fpeaking of the Knights du St. Eftrit and their Habit, he mentions their Collar being of Gold, entrelaffk de lys & de flammes, au bout duquel eft une croix de Mult he, an milieu de laquelle eft une colombe; that is, ¿¡tlttr? laceo forth floioer oe iLps ano flamees, at the eno of toftich is a Crofo of # alta, ano in the middle of that a SDobe. So that we fee thefe two are the common names for this kind of Croffl b and if Mr. Morgan had but either under- Hood the Etymology of the word Anchrée, or been veried in French Heralds, he had never committedthis errourto Poilerity in íb handfom a Cut : And had not Eovine been long fince made Engliih, he had not been io unlucky to have catched up, and then vented this miftake. But to my purpofe, we may call it in Latine Crucem Malthenfem or Oüogonam, or Crucem ad fingidas ejus extremitates, in duos acatos ángulos terminantem ; or elle in duos acúleos feu ffkula prodemtem. Verily this Croffl is of great efteem: it is (befides the fore-cited) the Badge of the Knights of the Order of St. Mary of Mount (Carmel; and St. Lazarus in ¿France V as alfo of thofe of St. Maurice ( as Eovine) and likewife of the Trinitarian Efyers, which they wear on their breaft and left fhoulder, as I have obferved, and you may fee in Monafticon Anglicanum. A Croffl of gáfeles intire (that is, not voided.) Guillim refpetting the common and true acception of the word gáfele, is fo out of love with the whole or entire gjJafCltflj that he would rather have them called Pane» (from their refembling Panes of glais)I am fure all French Authors define #arclea to be both#) i Therefore my ad vice is, where-ever you meet with fuch a Croffl (as Leigh here fpeaks of) to call it Crucem é Rhombulis conft ant em, A Crofa of gáfeles bofoeh (Leigh) Crucem e macutis retium, or $ RhombuUs evacuatis. A IntrodnBh ad A Croffi Moline i Leigh and our Com. try-men never give in their Glofles and Delcriptions any account whether this Crote be pierced or no, and lb confound it with the CrofS cetcete (as before I have hinted) but ‘Bara fays it is perch en quarre m milieu fquart pitrcCO in the tniD&g (and indeed fo Leigh’s Cut ren ders it ) and what doth Leigh himfelf mean elfe, when he fays, if this C rote be born Saltire# toasflj you (hallcall it a ^iHrinO, than that it is a tyi\\f linO born after the manner of a C ro te ? and a $gtflrin& cannot execute its office without a hole or piercing in its midft.

This is of the very lame form with the Croix anchrke (id eft, cerce- lee) as Bam informs us , only more narrow »-and is never pierced. Now for my part.I am of opinion it ought to be pierced, for it derives its denomination from Anille a iht&» and lb it mull be a ilender kind of Crote #oltne, and not Anchree, as Bara 66. & 7 1. would make it. Crote ^atOttce ( Leigh.) This the old Blaibners corruptly call |Satt, as before 1 have hinted in the Crete fleurtp, where you will find the proper Term for this to be fleurj? or Rojp> and its Latine Bla- fon to be Crucem in liliornm folia, nullo filo imerpofito, defnentem. Ctote patriarchal (fo termed by Fa vine and L t Trophee d’ Armes) and alfo by the Iaft Author, Croix de Loreine. The Vifcount of SThtrouann? in his Recerches of the Nobility of JHanDcrs, and particularly in the Arms of the Vifcounty of ISoulcr®» ftiles it Croix double ( De Sable a une croix double P argent.) And here for a further illuftration of this Crote, it will not be amifs to tell you, That as the Staves of the Popes are thrice Latinam IBUfomm. thrice cr oiled, fo thofe of patriarchs and Cardinals are but twice ; fo that this Crofs takes its denomination from their Staves. L e Trophée d’armes produces a Coat, thus by him blafoned, D'arg. à la croix de Loreinedegueuls ; which ve ry Arras I alio find (in ^ibmacbet of $0?imbW8b his Book of Cuts) to bç the Bearing of 9 fcb3 fenbergb, a Town in (Berman? i and he ftiles it, etn Doppeït ereutj, that is, a bauble C ro fs.

This Crofs (as by the premifes) may then be Latinized Patriarchalem, or Crucem Lotharingie, or Cru cem duplicem \ id eft, duabus tranfverfis conftantem trabibus. Laftly, this Crofs is the Badge of the Chanons-Regular of the Holy Sepulchre, which they bear upon their ihoulders, as Sir William Dugdale in his Monafticqn Anglicanum j as alio of the Order of St. (0 ett(in • and being made at the ends like the Crois of Smalta, is the Symbol of the Order of the Holy Ghoft in Variant Ktome, as you may fee in Mr, djbmoles Gartçr before recited. A Crofs quarter!? pierceò (thus Leigh and our Engliih Blafoners very impro perly) it were better to fay Square pier* CeD, as the French do percée en quatre ; its Latine is Quadrati, or Teffellatim in Centro, feu in umbìlico evacuata, penetrata five percufa. Now if a Crofs be pterceb reuni), you may term it Orbiculatim in Centro perforatant. I fay perforatam here, becaufe all holes made with Piercers or Angers are round.
