<p>The order of starred Knights was publike- ly instituted by King Iohn, in the Church at Saint Ouen in France, about the yeare of our Lord God 1351. which Knightes weare this signe of the Starre on their gownes, hats, <pb n="embmne_pae1591_fac020"/> or other place where it might easily be seene in Theaters, and Stages. And truly it is to be thought that this honorable cognizance had his beginning of the commemoration of that wonderfull starre, which conducted the wise men from the East, to the place where Christ was borne. Whither also those verses may be referred, otherwise dedicate by Virgill the sonne of Pollio, tho Iulius Caesar, concerning the commet which appeared after his death. Behold the starre of Dioneus Caesar, the star wherin the corns reioice their fils, And wherby eke the Grapes do take their die on shadie hils. </p> |
